In the week since that visit to the High Seraphim’s office, Ontos had been busy.
Things moved forward with his proposal. When he’d first laid it out, many of the others at that High Table had been interested, or eager to help. Galan and Azrael had been doubtful and skeptical, respectively. But then Lady Sera had shown them the playback...
2025-02-11 06:02:21 +0000 UTC View Post"Thank you for telling me."
That was all he could really manage to say, given what he had just been shown.
The nightmare of LA had never happened.
"What year is it?" Ontos managed to ask after a moment.
"What year do you think it is?"
Ontos frowned. "Two thousand and five."
The new face in the ro...
2024-11-03 00:02:41 +0000 UTC View PostOntos awoke from a dreamless sleep.
He opened his eyes to his new reality.
He slid out of bed, bare feet landing on plush carpet. He was ever mindful of the half dozen new appendages he now possessed, as well as the ever present halo. He wanted to feel like he was used to them by now, used to his new skin, his new face, his new e...

“Michael, your thoughts?”
“This could be a problem, Lady Seraphim.”

The distant cacophony of church bells disturbed his relaxation.
He was at one of the many resorts that dotted the shores of one of Heaven's seas. He was sunbathing in the warmth of the sun, luxuriating in the feeling of it on his skin and myriad wings. He was also being tended ...
2024-04-27 23:41:54 +0000 UTC View Post“Something has happened.”
It had been Michael to interrupt the proceedings in the council chamber. The other four in the chambers had been locked in discussion, a discussion he had interrupted.
It was a welcome interruption. Sera had been disinterested with the quite frankly boring minutiae. While Oscar could be enthusiastic abou...
2024-04-21 09:24:02 +0000 UTC View PostOntos came to a stop on the Boulevard sidewalk, having found the place that Lisa had told him about.
Slice of Life. The name was written in a flowing script on a hanging sign. It was presumably a pun, perhaps referring to preparing food or something else entirely. The facade was quaint. Almost Victorian, if the Victorians used exclusively ...
2024-04-14 07:32:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe gates closed behind Ontos with a whisper as he gazed upon Paradise for the first time.
His eyes settled on the vast forum-like space, at once equally opulent and modest. He used the word in the Latin sense, as the greco-Roman architecture of the place all but called for it. Around him to either side were groups of two or three or somet...
2024-04-14 07:30:55 +0000 UTC View PostHe was dead. That was his first rational thought.
He didn’t know where he was. Limbo, perhaps. It was a place of white, of empty nothing, not even gravity to determine up or down. He couldn’t move, but he thought the reason was because he didn’t have anything to move, nor anywhere to go. No frame of reference, no destination.

2024-04-14 07:28:47 +0000 UTC View PostTaylor sighed. The day could have gone better.
She was sitting in a conference room back at the PRT headquarters for a debriefing. After everything that had happened, all three of her Friends had been completely knackered, as Narwhal had aptly described it. Which was in itself unusual, as the three of them seemed to have unlimited supplies...
2022-12-23 21:15:18 +0000 UTC View PostKaiser had been called many things in his long life. A monster, a villain, a Nazi. He readily accepted and acknowledged most of those descriptors, and more still. But the one thing he would not accept being called was a fool. Because when the PRT practically handed you an easy opportunity to free your subordinates, only a fool would pass on such...
2022-04-21 07:15:40 +0000 UTC View PostAs the lights flickered and died and the building shuddered from some distant explosion, Taylor immediately thought about her dad. Was he safe? Was he okay? Was he hurt?
A second of darkness filled the room before an emergency light in the corner of the chamber flickered on, re-illuminating everything in erie red light.

All in all, it had shaped up to be a good day, even if it was a Monday. Taylor had opted to stay home from school, both to spend more time with her Friends and to prepare for the coming evening. While the decorations...

“Thank you.” Levi nuzzled her chin from her shoulder, reassuring her. But it didn’t help with the fact that Taylor felt like she was in over her head.
They had been brought to a vacant conference room to talk in private. Just Tay...

Silba’s plan was simple. Just send a specter in her stead and watch from afar.

2021-08-09 19:28:45 +0000 UTC View PostThis isn't going to be a story post, not in the slightest. It's not going to be very long at all. I prefer brevity regarding heavy subjects.
I understand that a lot of people enjoyed reading this story. However, it is with a heavy heart that I announce that I am putting this story on indefinite hiatus 2021-07-30 02:05:04 +0000 UTC View Post
In the spirit of the day where people everywhere blow stuff up: I present to you a post involving one of my characters blowing stuff up. This is a bit of a side story post to Through Victory, taking place in that galaxy far, far away. I'll just say that it features a couple of fan favorites, and leave it at that. :D
Enjoy.

Ruby only had to feign excitement a little bit as she hugged her dad. Taiyang had come looking for her at the workshops as she was leaving, likely guided by Uncle Qrow. Her dad didn’t look worse for wear, despite the wring...

Ruby was panting heavily, running as fast as she could back toward Beacon’s central Tower. She would have dashed the whole way there, if not for the risk of overtaxing her Aura. Jaune and Pyrrha needed her help, and she was the closest to where they’d last been heading.
The Grimm knew no end. The...

Taylor squeezed her backpack to her chest, a life preserver on the sea of trepidation that she now found herself. The bag in her arms squirmed from within, as her friends made their discomfort at her squeezing felt.
