Yeah, that about sums up what I was thinking at first. But it sounds surprisingly tasty after thinking about it a bit. I almost want to try baking these myself!

Wasabi Brownies?
Cupcake Project: The Brownie Recipe for Everyone - Panko-Encrusted ...: "I'm imagining you staring at your screen. Your head is cocked to the side and you've rested your hand on your chin to ponder my bizarre title. Could a panko
-encrusted wasabi brownie really be the brownie recipe for everyone?"

Short Story: Seeing the Stars
(This was a writing challenge also. This one takes place in 2360, when Felicia Quinn was ten years old.)
"Felicia! Mom said stay in the cabin while she was gone!"
"What Mom doesn't know won't hurt her. Come on, Liv, this is boring!"
Olivia crossed her arms and stood in front of the door, glowering with all the meanness she could muster. "Mom said."
Felicia shrugged and turned around, darting over to the couch and scrambling up on its back. "You can't stop me." She stuck her tongue out at her sister and pulled the air vent cover off, dropping it on the deck before she hauled herself up into the vent. She paused, scooting around so that she could look at Olivia through the opening. "You coming?"

Short Story: The Captain's Angel
(This was written for a writing challenge.)
"Hey, Felicia. Wake up."
"No, thank you. I'll just stay asleep, thanks." Felicia pulled the blanket over her head, only to have it suddenly yanked away. "Hey!" She sat up, grabbing at it and trying not to laugh as Charlie held it out of her reach. "Okay, okay. I'm up."
"Better hurry," Charlie advised sweetly as she folded the blanket and set it on the bed. "You know. Starship to run and all that."
"...right. Thanks." Felicia kissed Charlie's cheek and scrambled off the bed. "I'd ask you to join me, but..."
Charlie giggled, pushing her away toward the head. "Go on, crazy. You'll be late."

Wow
Damn, it's been a while. Truth is...I replaced my aging laptop and didn't remember the link to get here! I had to go look it up!
I do plan to use this more often, but college starts in a month (A MONTH! SERIOUSLY!) so there won't be a new post every day!
I do have some new fiction to post though. Keep an eye out!
