When She’s Shy

A Risdaverse Short Story

By: Ruby Dixon

Narrated by: Jillian Macie

I am a bashful, dorky human—your average refugee on Risda III.

Haina is tall, blue, and magnificent. She is effortlessly confident, and her laugh is contagious. I might hide behind the candle section at the store in Risda's port just to get a weekly glimpse at her when she makes her vendor runs.

I might be in love with her from afar. Someday I'll get the courage to talk to her. Someday.

But fate steps in, and 'someday' turns out to be a lot sooner than I expected.

Contains mature themes.

Super cute human/alien short. Well written and a fun listen. I liked the narration and the character development in this short story. I’m

Awwwwww!

I love that we finally got lesbian characters. I know for IPB, Icehome and IPC it's impossible to do because the whole point of survival for the planet (and those series) is about procreation. But on Risda III that is not the case and I love that we got a FF relationship. Now here's to hoping for a MM relationship as well.

Cute

Cute short sci-fi romance. Well narrated. Sometimes you’re just in the mood for a quick fuzzy story. This fits the bill.

Wish it had been longer.. loved it!

Sweet short Sapphic romance, Haina Haal Ui and Ali.
Haina Haal Ui and Ali

Sweet Desires

Cute story of a gay relationship. She saw her and desired to know her better. They discovered that they longed to have a relationship with each other. HEA. Great narrative.
