That Long-Awaited Dream
In the last ten minutes of the days light...
Sebastian placed the ninth coin carefully on his elbow. Tongue in the corner of his mouth, he squinted at the awkwardly balanced stack. His arm trembled with anticipation. The boy grinned at the old man then jerked his arm, cupping his fingers so as to catch the coins in one fluid motion. Coins flung everywhere, flying through the air and ringing off stones.
The old man raised a hand, snatching one from it's spinning arc. He held it outward to the frowning boy.
"Start with one and work your way up."

Although at the risk of sounding redundent, those who have not read this player's work and are new, seeking inspiration you may surely find just that as you read through this. This place misses a lot of players, Matt was indeed one of the best.

Re: That Long-Awaited Dream
Hey Matt, a lot of us older Dasarians are still active. I know, I barely qualify as an old Dasarian compared to ya'll, but compared to all the new young wipper-snappers who never hung out in Daris.
