New Clothes and Old Wounds

Title: Imoen (Chapter Two: New Clothes and Old Wounds)
Author: Bill Hartwell
Rating: teens
Fandom: Baldur's Gate
Characters/pairings: Imoen
Disclaimer: If you recognize it, and it’s not from Knights in Tarnished Armor, it’s not mine.
Author’s note: Everybody hurts. Some people just cover it better than others, until they have the opportunity to let it out safely. If what's in this chapter sounds even vaguely like anything in your own life, I strongly suggest you contact SAFE.
Unpayable Silence by Mittnatsol, just happened to be up on my Last.fm rotation when I was writing this chapter, so it made it into the story.
You can find every article of clothing in the box, at Pegasus Publishing. I've been shopping there for years. It's the definitive geek's clothing store.

First of May

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
It's been a long time, I know, but it's that time of year, when a young wolf's fancy turns to thoughts of cute bitches, and a cranky old paladin can even be convinced to break into song....

That's right, it's the First of May.

Now I understand Heinlein

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
My cat, a feral cat who adopted me almost a year ago, has become so entangled in my life that, now that winter has arrived in force, makes me feel guilty that I don't have the magical powers she ascribes to me. Now, whenever she wants outside, and I open the door for her, she sits in front of the door and looks up at me, clearly disappointed that I have not opened the door into summer for her.

The Aribeth I Know (Part Seven)

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
This part is rated T, for the terrible things that happen to Aribeth. As you may recall, at the end of the last chapter, Aribeth was having flashbacks, and had been encouraged to talk about what happened to her in the Underdark to cause those flashbacks. This is what happened in the Underdark, as seen by both Aribeth and Fred.

The Aribeth I Know (Part Six)

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

Author's Warning: This chapter is rated T, for frank expression of opinions that are likely to cheese off the average mundane American. If you don't want to expose yourself to controversial opinions on government education, religion, and society, you may want to skip this chapter.

Author's Notes:
Black Widows in the Privy is the property of Leslie Fish. She wrote it, she deserves the credit for it. If you ever find a tape or CD of her stuff, buy it. You won't regret it.

The Monster's Carol (also known as "Clerics Roasting on an Open Fire") was my entry in the 1993 Killer Frog contest, run by Scavenger's Newsletter. Sadly, Scav seems to have gone out of business a while back - or, at least, I can't find any links to them any more. In any case, I won an honorable mention with it, and now I'm happy to share the lyrics, as long as you mention where you got them. The music, on the other hand, was written by Bob Wells in 1944 (Mel Torme wrote the original lyrics).
