Summary
Kaidan has an itchy foot.
This is a little self-imposed challenge due to a case of writer’s block and extreme boredom, to see how many ficlets I could write starting with a single premise. And, as my foot kept itching this morning for no apparent reason, I went with ‘Kaidan’s foot was itching’. Some are serious, some are silly, some are decidedly erotic. Not all of them take place in the same universe, and they’re not necessarily in chronological order. Enjoy.Series
