Legends Never Die: Eyes on the Prize (ch. 78)

Legends Never Die: Danegeld (ch. 77)

The battle was a fierce one, but Acre still fell to us in little time. And not wholly because we managed to overcome the defenders. I felt it in my bones that Hadi, the commander that had proven to be a thorn in my side since this war began, was b...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.8 (ch. 13)

“All things considered, that went as well as it could have,” I remarked, up and out of the hospital bed that I was carted to. I looked in a mirror to see a fresh set of stitches held together my eyebrow from where Vicious tore them with those ...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.7 (ch. 12)

I felt calm as we descended into the belly of the beast. There was fear there, pooling in my gut, but it was firmly in check. I controlled it rather than the fear controlling me. If I had to describe what I felt in a single word, then the word rig...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.6 (ch. 11)

“Left, left, left, right, left,” I chanted, running next to Mankey and I had to admit, I was doing a lot better than I thought I would be after a solid three hours of running. Pokemon humanity seemed to start at a base level of Olympic athlete...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.9 (ch. 14)

Marnie got her gym badge and the entire battle was pretty enlightening. Especially when she had been marked for one of the play battles -- she wasn't given lines or anything, but she had been described on the stage by a narrator rather than an ann...

What characters would you like to see in The Good Life?

The latest poll is over and it was a pretty close one since the very start! Tanya and Azula were within 10 votes of each other the entire time, so I'd call them both winners in this case. And, as always, the polls are to determine interest in char...

The Good Life: Some Enchanted Evening (ch. 46)

The Good Life: Deeper and Darker (ch. 43)

“What the fuck do you mean, he's been captured?” Rumi blurted, a frown twisting at her lips as she regarded Taylor coldly. Another psychopath in Law’s merry band of them. The girl was young, around the age she would have started going to UA,...

Never Fade Away: Been Good To Know Ya (ch. 64)

“Oh, fuuuucckkkk…!” Johnny groaned, eyelids butterflying as his eyes felt like they were rolling from the back of his skull. He opened them, just to catch a glimpse of blinding light that stabbed daggers into his brain. It might have been a ...
