Chapter 20: Special Delivery
(Monday, October 4th, 2123)
It was the early morning, and the work week was about to get started all across Stilwater.
At eight am on the dot, a figure appeared out front of the Philips Building, and after getting out of a heavily tricked-out crimson Atlasbreaker truck, marched into Ult...

Today promised to be a fairly easy-going day for Taylor. Bell, Lili, and Welf had gone to hunt in the Dungeon, the former wanting to test out his new-found strength. That meant Bell would be running around the 10th or 11th Floor having fun cutting up Orcs to test his newfound power. Taylor hadn�...

It was several weeks after my brilliant idea to combine arithmancy and runes with computer codes and I was back at the office, working on something I’d wanted to do for a while, now.
“Inky, Dobby, thank you both for coming,” I said, looking at the two House Elves who’d appeared i...

“Um, not to tell you what to do, boss, but shouldn’t we have some, I dunno, back up with us?” Defender asked nervously. Pierce had taken his helmet off, so it was easy for Skunk to tell how queasy he looked.
“The boys did what needed to be done, and they hav...

As Taylor had assumed, Bell had done it. By beating the Minotaur on his own, he’d earned a Level Up. He was now Level 2, which marked him as being part of the elite. Over fifty percent of all adventurers were Level 1, and would likely never make it beyond that. Bell had just jumped that gap, and in ...

Christmas break ended with little fanfare, but left us with a lot of new things to worry about. Having Harry know about the basilisk ahead of time would hopefully change things for the best. And I’d been able to give him several vials worth of Petrification Draught before he went back to Hogwarts. 2024-09-20 17:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post
Chapter 18: Thank You, And Goodnight!

The air was starting to cool, and the people in Stilwater were starting to bundle up. Gone were the short-shorts, croptops, and sandals. It was autumn, and the island off the coast of California was very much starting to show it.
Of course, this bein...

“And… done! What do you think?” Welf asked as he stepped away from the mannequin.
“It looks good,” Taylor said, looking the suit of armor up and down. Her old outfit had been damaged, and the repairs she’d been able to do to it on her own had been limited. Now, though, with somebod...

I stared at the scruffy man in front of me as he sat on my couch. He stared back.
“So… you’re Sirius Black?” I inquired slowly, raising an eyebrow at the man who needed a sandwich, a shower, and a hug. And not necessarily in that order.
“Yup. And you’re Erroneous’...

Bell was excited. Well, somebody would say he was always that way, but today was different! Today – and yesterday – had been simply amazing!
Yesterday, Taylor had given him a Skill – and wasn’t that the coolest thing ever?! – then Lili had moved in, and then they’d made friends with We...

“Oh, you both look so cute!” Delilah gushed, and Mrs. Finch-Fletchley nodded, leaning in for a dreaded cheek pinch.
Harry pouted, not at all liking being called ‘cute,’ while Justin wore a resigned expression as he accepted the compliments and pinches.
Harry had decided to spend Ch...

As I put away the dishes after a nice and simple pasta dinner, I couldn’t help but worry about the lack of news regarding my most recent scheme. It’d been a week since Remus Lupin and I had sent the messenger bat to Sirius Black, and so far, there was no word. Had Wiggles made it? Did the spells work...

“Bell… what did you do this time?” Taylor asked with a sigh, running a hand over her face. It was the next day, and the two were raring to go back into the Dungeon after their day off. They had made it to the front of the Tower, only for a young girl to approach Bell and ask about joining ...
