God Save the Queen: Book 2 Chapter 11

This chapter was commissioned by Everdusk

Chapter 11: A Bright and Shining Center

A low whine filled the air.

The dunes raced by beneath my speeder. In the passenger seat, Bo-Katan followed the horizon with her scanner. We left behind the shadow of our landing craft, already rising to bring down another search ...

Discarded 1 [Worm/Battle City]

Anyone still remember Yugioh?

Chapter 1: Card Games at Night

I found them beating up someone in an alley.

Three men in black cloaks held a teenager by the wrist from where he slumped against the asphalt. They grabbed something from the winged disk around the teen�...

Non Serviam: Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Take Me to Church

“She only eats when you’re here,” Rias said.

I frowned. “Only?”

“Mmhm.” Rias sighed, idly flicking through a copy of The Art of War that Mittelt had thrown at her the other day. “Can you believe that Mittelt said that this book was ‘written for idiot...

Chapter 13: Blessed are the Pure of Heart

“Guh!” Rias stretched, draping her sweat towel artfully over her shoulders. “You’re such a harsh taskmaster, Taylor!”

I folded my arms and shrugged.

“I appreciate the additional training,” Kiba said. He didn’t look nearly so worn down as his king. Instea...

Chapter 12: In Which Taylor Kills More Children

The girls poked through the room, one in front of the other. I focused on the one with long white hair that the other was clearly trying to protect. They’d checked their corners before entering, but I was covered in a veil of darkness up in the rafters.

“Quick, Momo...

Non Serviam: Chapter 11

Chapter 11: The Prerogatives of the Strong

“I don’t know how you managed to make Akeno more mad at you while I was gone,” Rias said.

The entire peerage, except for Gasper, sat in the living room of the condo. My favorite cute dhampire was represented in spirit by an equally petite and effeminate fallen...

Non Serviam: Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Purgatorio

Waiting was the worst part.

I found myself running my fingers over the frayed edges of my new prayer book. The thing was small enough to slip neatly into my jacket pocket, and though I wanted a chance to examine it, I hadn’t had a moment alone since I’d introduced Mittelt to Rias. The devil...

Episode 2.1: Lab Rats and Lizard Wizards

I sighed as I ripped open the gauze packet. It was a pain to do one handed.

“And what was it this time?” I pressed the gauze to the long gash on his arm. “Hold that there.”

Peter pressed a thumb to the gauze. At least he’d listened about the utility belt and ma...

Webs We Weave 1.1

New York was warm enough during the autumn.

I blew out a breath. Currently, I was sitting on a rooftop in the Bronx and looking out over the famous New York skyline. Life, after Gold Morning, had turned out… well enough all things told. I had a nice thick jacket, opened slightly because of the war...

“Sit here.” Dr. Connors led me to a smaller room connected directly to the main lab. “After the…attack, I took the opportunity to have this space renovated into sort of exam room, just to make things a bit more comfortable.”

June Announcement

Happy June everyone!

This month, I am focusing on building up a backlog of chapters. I already have a backlog of fanfiction that I will continue to post on a regular basis.

I will also be building up a backlog of Devil’s Foundry chapters (don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about Via!) so that updates will be more regular in the f...

Chapter 9: A Devil’s Bargain

Mittelt glared at me over the covered tray in her hands. “I can’t believe you talked me into this.”

I shrugged, placing my hand on the door. “A bit late to back out now.”

She huffed. Left unsaid was that if she wanted to kill me and run, the time to do that was back at t...

The girl nodded. “She thought that this Freed would make a poor opponent for Kiba.” Her words were one thing, but her tone came with...

Strong Enough 2.4 Interlude

Interlude: Locked in, Laid back, Lady’s Night

The braindance starts with a cheery tune ripped from an old net television ad. That’s not a guess; it’s part of the virtu’s metadata.

“What’s up, Night City!” a bright and cheerful voice rings out. “Coming from ‘Saka plaza, with love! Bu...

“Well,” Sasha says. “A lot of it comes down to the car.” She blows a bubble. Taylor hears it pop over the audio call.

Taylor turns up the hot water. Unfortunately, it’s already turning lukewarm. She knows the sticky feeling is only in her head, but the tem...

So sometimes a girl gets in a bit over her head; is that really a crime?

Becca suppresses a wince, pressing her back against the inside of a depowered freezer. She was casing a torn up scav den when some ‘stromm...

Solo 1.4

Once again, the ringing of her phone drags Taylor back to wakefulness.

With a blink, she accepts the call. A face so blandly attractive that it can only be computer-generated flickers into her implants. The voice immediately backs up that assumption.

“Greetings Ms. Taylor Hebert. This is a courte...
