A/N: Hey everyone! I swear these chapters are still supposed to come out on Friday, I'm just... bad at doing that, I guess? I tried weed for the first time on Thursday and it absolutely fucked me up in the worst way possible, so I kinda needed to take a recovery day. Turns out I am an unimaginably

It's perversely delightful to watch the whole congregation freak out and turn on each other in the brief moments I get to see with my spatial sense before running off. My mother seems to turn on J-Mom, demanding an explanation and likely trying to blame her for everything, but the congregation looks like it turns on my mom and dad, expe...

I've been getting tortured nightly for four days now. I think that's enough to qualify as routine.
I guess you could argue I've been tortured for three o...

A/N: Hey everyone! Thank you all for your patience. I'm still a little sick but I'm doing way better than I was last week and very much on the mend. Barring YET MORE random bullcrap smacking me around, regular update schedules should resume from here. Also: wow! Chapter fifty! That's a pretty cool milestone, right? I think it's cool. Any...

Holy shit, I don't know what hit me this time but it really fucked me up.
I was in a seriously bad way all day Tuesday, just 24 hours of being curled up in a heated blanket and fading in and out of consciousness. Then Wednesday I was awake but couldn't really get out of bed (though I thankfully had my wonderful roommates to help take...

"...I don't really want anyone to die," I manage to mutter quietly.
"Seriously?" Helen asks. "Nobody? Not even the people who self-admittedly want to kidnap you and experiment on you until you die?"
I nestle deeper into the backpack, my squishy, still-molting body protesting the movement.
"...If you can help it, yeah,"...

I have COVID and my everything hurts. Chapters will probably not happen this week!
Some of you may remember the Pokemon fanfic I briefly posted. I still update that occasionally, and I've finally started posting it somewhere more readable than Discord: Archive Of Our Own. You can read the story here: 2023-02-16 22:28:18 +0000 UTC

"Ow," Valerie grunts, staring at her newly-clawed fingertips. "This really hurts."
"Yeah, I mean, that's how it usually happens," I agree.

Hey everyone! It has been... way too long since I released a Vigor Mortis chapter, and you're all certainly overdue for a quick "what's going on?"

I wake up groggy, sticky, and sad. The first leads to me taking a while to understand the second, but once I do it rather exacerbates the third. I'm covered in blood because I killed and ate a bunch of people. Right.

If I ever needed to hide a body, the hardest part would probably be deciding what to do with the feces.
Even that wouldn't be hard, per se. I'm sure there are a lot of things you could do that would work. Burying it, tossing it into a river… it dissolves easily, so as long as it's not still hanging around the scene of the crime I'm proba...

Vigor Mortis will be ending in the next few months. There are like, single-digit chapters left in the story. ...

I stare at Helen as she stares at the ceiling, presumably consumed by murderous whimsy.
Uh. Hmm. Okay! That was a really concerning thing for a person to say. Am I letting that one slide? No, I need to trust this woman to watch me while I sleep, I'm not letting that one slide. Crap, okay, what would Ida say in this situation?

Of all the things I could find to hate in my current situation, for some reason the one my brain focuses on is my clothes. I hate them so, so much. I hate my chaste little floor skirt and my tight, itchy socks that keep getting in my joints. I hate my loose blouse, catching on my wrists because I have to stuff the ends of the sleeves under my gl...

I feel… bloated.
My tendrils slither through the shattered streets, twisting under rubble to provide lifesaving touches to the crushed and dying… as well as collecting the dead. So much for no casualties, but I never really thought we'd manage to pull that off. I don't doubt that everywhere else on the island is suffering even worse th...
