Tortoise Stories

Foston Slacks is dead! Which is going to be a real problem when he finds out. And his murderer? One Clara O' Fortuna Bridger, Foston's erstwhile and largely unwilling travelling companion in the wondrous reaches of time, space and realities. With implacable, unstoppable and strangely missing hunters in, relatively, hot pursuit, Clara must go on the run, unable to use the network of Breaches, that would make it all so much easier, to find the 'Foston before he was Foston'. And if vague instructions and lack of mobility wasn't enough, she has to drag her not-friend Linda around with her. With the whole of reality in peril, again, Clara must act like Foston to save Foston. It's enough to make anyone wish they'd stayed at home in a bridesmaid's outfit and gorgeous shoes. Second sequel to the Wattys Award winning 'Foston Slacks - Time's Flies' in the Still-Not-A-Trilogy.

She hired a contractor. She became the client. She was the target. One boring year passes before her suicide hit comes, on her fucking birthday. This is her story. Or maybe yours. A meandering and lingering read for those who read everything and nothing at all times and at no time.

Just a story idea. If you like it, the idea of it, and want to expand on it. Please do. Also this is a crossover between My Little Pony & Krypto the Superdog movie.

Under the relentless desert sun, a tortoise and a scorpion meet by the riverbank. The scorpion, unable to swim, asks the tortoise to carry it across the river on its back, promising not to sting it. The tortoise, aware of the scorpion's nature and instincts, wisely decides to prepare itself-coating its shell and soft body parts with a special mineral layer resistant to poison. As they cross the river, the scorpion, despite its intentions, succumbs to its instincts and attempts to sting the tortoise. However, its stinger bounces off the protective coating. Upon reaching the other side, the scorpion realizes the depth of its unconscious drive and the wisdom of the tortoise. The tortoise forgives it, emphasizing the importance not only of hoping for the best but also of preparing for all possible outcomes. Years later, the scorpion and the tortoise meet again, now surrounded by their own families. Their story becomes a valuable lesson about instincts, friendship, and the power of foresight-for true wisdom lies not only in trust but also in the ability to anticipate and safeguard against the inevitable weaknesses of nature.

The Tortoise has played a fast one again...

Date of Creation: October 5, 2024 "Set in modern day China, the Black Tortoise, the Vermillion Bird, the Azure Dragon, and the White Tiger are all known as the Four Guardians, China's greatest heroes. But during their time protecting the people, they encountered a young man who unknowingly has the power to defeat an upcoming dark evil." This is my very own original creation, inspiringly based on Chinese mythology. WARNING: Some of the pages contains mild language.

Background: This popular Igbo folktale tells the story of a cunning tortoise who, out of greed, deceives a group of birds to attend a feast in the sky. Tortoise convinces the birds to share their feathers so he can fly with them, but once they arrive at the feast, he tricks them to claim all the food for himself. Enraged, the birds take back their feathers, leaving him to fall to the ground. Theme: This story is a lesson in greed, betrayal, and its consequences. Tortoise tales, which are common across Nigeria, often depict the tortoise as a symbol of trickery and cunning, highlighting the cultural value placed on honesty and trustworthiness.
