Fluff - Volume Four - Chapter Forty-Four

Chapter Forty-Four

Emily was a little nervous, sending Trinity out so casually, but she had confidence that Trinity could be stealthy when she put her mind to it. “Just don’t get caught, and let me know what you see and what’s happening.”

Trinity gave her a twinned salute. “Got it!” she said. Then she w...

Fenfang stared into the swirling portal. This... was big. 

Sure, she wasn’t that well-versed in politics yet, even with her crash-course and with the experience she was gaining from being tossed into the deep end, but even she could speculate. A portal like this meant instant transportation acros...

The January 2026 Index!

Hi!

Look at that, not even 3 hours into the new year and I'm already posting the Index! Hehe! Good habits and stuff!

(I will not be keeping up on any good habits, I'm afraid)

Anyway, here's the link: 2026-01-01 07:22:15 +0000 UTC View Post

Happy New Year!

Finally, I can get back to work!

More chappies incoming! <3

Cinnamon Bun - Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy

Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy - 

Bastion was taking this dungeon very seriously. As soon as we had put down the last of the soldiers, he checked out the entire room. “It’s safe,” he said at last.

I felt a bit of tension leaving my shoulders. “Okay, good,” I replied. 

The dungeon people ...

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Nine

First, I wanted to see just how tough the ice elementals were. They didn’t seem particularly hard to kill, at the outset. 

The one I found patrolling furthest from the group was... more intimidating from up close than I might have expected originally. The elemental was abou...

“Where are we going, exactly?” I asked as I hopped into the pilot’s seat. Only two of the others had followed me all the way to the cockpit; Hedgehog and Princess. 

Knight was sitting in the back somewhere, stowing some stuff she’d brought, and Shy was... off being herself....

Not-so-quick quick chappy!

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Eight

It took another hour to clear out the first room. The kobolds kept coming. At first in ones and twos, then in small groups, almost like squads.

There seemed to be some sort of order to how they did things. A bigger kobold would be directing three...

Chapter Forty-Three

So far, nothing.

That was the result of nearly three hours of surprisingly tense searching. For some reason, she had thought that looking around would be relatively easy. It was literally just walking around and trying not to be spotted.

It was the latter part that was stressing her right ...

Cinnamon Bun - Holiday Special 2025

Holiday Special

One day, during a wintry storm...

“You want to do what?” Amaryllis asked.

I puffed my cheeks out, not caring that I might look a little silly with such a big pout on. “I want to travel around the world and spread good cheer and happiness,” I said.

Amaryllis’ lo...

Interlude - Easy Holidays

Delilah never knew when to expect Catherine showing up. What she did know, was that Catherine would show up at the most inopportune moments.

For example, right that very moment. 

There was a ring, and Delilah started, instantly pulling back and away and somehow managing to slide...

Taking Some Time Off!

After much solemn reflection, I have reached a momentous decision... I am taking the rest of the year off. A chance to step back, let ideas ferment, and return with something sharper and more deliberate.

With that said, I’ve also been thinking about how momentum works. Stories don’t like being abandoned mid-stride, and habits, once bro...

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Seven

Okay, so as it turned out, getting explosives in Fortress ENE was... not easy at all.

I called Jane about it and she told me that it was possible, but she wouldn’t be able to help quite so easily. She had friends and friends of friends who might be able to get me some ...

The Competitors Four - The Poison Flower 

It was strange how little time had passed for her home to change so much. 

In her youth, Shitake had been... not cold, exactly, but definitely strained. It was a city that had only ever known the brink. It was only ever one bad harvest, one monster attack, one pun...

I was shovelling breakfast into my mouth when I got a call. It was early the next morning, which basically meant that it was gonna be on the last mornings I’d get to spend at home for a bit, or at least for as long as whatever went on in Quebec lasted for. 

I was mostly not look...

Chapter Five Hundred and Sixty-Nine

It had been a while since I’d last entered a dungeon. I stared at the entrance for a while. It was, predictably, kind of dark in there. Cavernous, even. 

The edges of the dungeon were made of stone that matched the earth of the crater, only a few steps in, that was traded ...

After sending Lucy off to school early the next morning, I found myself very much tempted to call everything off and to just go back to bed. 

Bed was soft and warm. The world was cold and hard. 

But no. I could only excuse so much laziness in myself, and there was so...

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Six

Unfortunately, I had to drive back to my apartment before I could help back out to the portal. The moment I walked in, I felt a wave of tiredness that had me slumping--carefully--on my bed. I wasn’t initially planning on sleeping, but it seemed like my body demanded otherwise.

Chapter Forty-Two

“Let’s start with a quick recap of the situation so far,” the man up on stage said. “My name is Clark, I’m the  Manager of Heroic Interventions for the HRF North East. Today, I’ll be going over a very quick summary of the events so far, what we know, and what we’re planning on doing f...
