I am also reading "Tales from the crust: an pizza horror anthology"; "A cult called freedom house", and "Sawkill girls". I just finished James Sabata's "Fat Camp", Ben Eads's "Hollow Heart: A horror ...

I enjoy the series but I can't watch it in English. I have to watch the Japanese dub. It's not that the American Seiyuu are unskilled, I just hate that sort of voice stabbing my brain in English minus an actual small child attached.

Hope continued to beam, recovering from an awkward recovery from almost falling over the railing in the rough landing. "We can hope for the best and prepare for worse, as Granma used to say," she nodded to Chance as she stared wide eyed at the scene before them. "Whatever the Novaline is, it seems t...

Doubt tugged on brittle threads of memory as she sat before a large star map displayed across her office wall. A couple of taps took the focus down to a single star system in the myriad in the endless sea. She heard the call, something waited for her return. Numbers flashed crimson and black across ...

~*~ M...o...y ...r...a… Morya’s fingers flexed and dug into soft wet, mossy earth. Mud and stagnant water coated her tongue. She gagged and vomited as she pushed herself from sopping earth. Her right eye wouldn’t reopen. She rubbed at it and felt a hard crust of Minya knew what. Blearily, she made o...

Dry stone scraped against stone revealing darkness beyond Morya’s lantern light. Stale dry air settled around her as the ancient hidden door slid backward into the recesses of the wall. She shivered as a breeze whirled past her from within the recesses of the chamber beyond. It’s waking, she thought...

Ember sat quietly. She unzipped her jacket gingerly and pulled the garment aside to reveal a bloody mess. Blood was smeared across her left side from her neck to wrist through her undershirt- staining it an ugly shade of black.. It oozed from jagged puncture wounds in a half moon from where the mons...

"I don't check the Alastor feeds, so I don't know if you are on the hook Miss. I couldn't collect on any bounty anyway, I'm not a member of that organization. But, I don't think I have to censor your name. Depending on the time slot and the angle, I might have to censor your... ample assets though. ...

Lukina stared at the newcomer and felt a clash of emotions bubble up. She was too tired to scream, to cry. She wasn't sure if she'd see him again. The mindlink had been quiet for so long that she heard echoes. "What's the plan? Galva nor Mara have claimed yet, we have to go find the others." Her voi...

Hope smiled brightly as everyone continued on with their fixation on the I'ee and the pirate woman. This is great footage! The producers are going to love it! "Oh! If you don't want your image to go onto NNN I need you to tell me now so I can activate the face encryption algorithm. I'll be filming t...

Hope's heels clicked cheerfully across the metal deck plate as she made her way to the cargo bay. She whistled happily as three round matte black drones floated around her. Her sapphire eyes glittered and her thick, dark brown hair was glossy and soft in the dim light. "Hello everyone!" She called o...

Making your Waifu Cat girls from actual cats. XD Thank you for writing this Immortal.

"It's been a long time, a lot has happened and I'm not the type to share my personal experiences, you do you is what I always say. Been working on some things, not sure if I'll ever put them up somewhere, in fact I may be taking down a few things. If there's still interest in commissions I would lov...

I am still accepting submissions for this. Be not afraid.

Education on Jord leans more in the way of apprenticeships for traditional laborer roles with only the noble elite attending formal colleges about history, politics, military strategy. Tatya hini of Jord a similar pre-apprenticeship program to determine proficiency in a job before allowing movement ...

I am interested, Jabo! <3 I might have an NPC to play with already.

The silence in her commslink and her telepathic bond to Bhelith left a void in her thoughts she never realized that she missed. The cold was a refreshing change for Lukina vice the insufferable inferno deeper in the mines. She didn't relish the idea of going back towards the heat. "At least the ice ...

Always nice seeing you! I hope things are settling out well with your family. =)

1 Forest shadows loomed omniously overhead in the waning light of the new moon. Distant hooves rumbled like thunder, echoing loudly in the dark rider’s ears. His cloak had fallen away from his face was the wind whipped around him as he urged his horse faster. Fear dwindled his chances of outrunning ...

Interior decorators under the careful instruction of Lord Whitemeadow had lavished untold care and minute details into the festival decor that adorned not only the Manor but the whole of the City of Glass. Almost the whole of the Manor was to be open to the public, save for a few key chambers, the r...

Deep breaths. "You're going to be okay doctor. Do you want something to kill the pain... Deep breaths, we need to breathe to make it hurt less, right?" Aster fought her panic and inched towards the doctor again. She was a scientist, right? And the psychiatrist said that she had to confront moments l...

Lukina toiled, sweat and was frustrated by the silence in her head. Static. She couldn't connect to anyone. Not the Empress, Creature, her mother, nor the asshole. Would they know where to find them? Would her mother help in the search once she saw her marker disappear? Or was she really dead after ...

Ember's expression was fatigued, brittle. Her eyes opened, dulled by what Yelran supposed was pain. Marit opened the door, motioning to the Tianshi guards. Her voice was strained, like she was not trying to speak above a whisper, "We'll check for additional damage. Ginger will guide us, ma'am. I lea...

Bulging the inkor structured itself and solidified. CRACK! The form cracked like glass as a bright light spilled out. Shards fell around it until the illumination filled the room and warmed it. It somehow stole the sound. But... It brought with it a sensation of reassurance and the scent of a river....

Zai! I absolutely love your work. I am always happy to get commissions back from you, even if they are only pencils.

It was in Ehrenzeller on a Europia-esqe moon that the Crimson Corsairs came across a derelict ship of unknown make embedded in the ice. On this ships they found monsters, Ayana Morita (in stasis) and her son, Edmund but no other survivors.

The government of the Wangdaio Colonies was headed by the Prime Minister who was voted by majority popular vote. Prime Minister Ayana Morita , she led the nation and set forward the main body of laws which had to be approved by the Parliament. Since the nation was so new, there was only ever 1 Prime...

The creature roared and swooped down with open jaws. In an instant, the Admiral disappeared into the darkness of its jaws. One of the Tianshi pilots made a small, sick gasp of disbelief. The silence in the chamber grew heavier with the fog. It rose up again and turned its broad spade shaped head tow...

@Gunsight1 is going to be writing up something regarding some of this later on this evening.

Admiral Connelly's eyes were on the floor of the pit. "At the ready," she ordered in a low voice. The Tianshi pilots were already in position, silence filled the chamber as everyone seemed to hold their breath in anticipation. Alarms sounded and the lights died. Yelran and Sushi saw a flash of large...

@Ham We can wrap up the "Meeting the Admiral" post in long form here. Sorry for the delays.

Greg still seemed completely confused, but played it off as being tired. “I don’t know, the quicker she gets out the better. But I’m not the military. I don’t know, I hate this shit.” He then rolled his head back and leaned against the nearest wall, the whole rescue thing apparently still hitting hi...

Aster's eyes widened in awe and horror as the doctor transformed. She took a few deep breaths and tried to remain calm, this was a controlled experiment. She murmured to herself and managed weakly as she fought her distress and the memory of something that haunted her still. "Doctor, are.. are you i...

ON: THE ASTERIA , 3017 GSC Wherein Honno and Kelda meet, and exchange faces. When Kelda entered the room, she observed a wolf-masked woman kneeling, in what appeared to be relative ceremonial comfort, upon a cushion. A pair of blades, Japanese daisho, had been settled neatly in front of her. Twelv...

Please write up a short description of your Nation and/or Organization in this thread!

The sky was pitch black as Markos crested the hill, the brown tips of the tall blades of grass rustled around him as he pushed forward towards the clustering of trees at the apex. Meneo had turned most of his face to await the moment when Saule would join him in the sky. He could relate to that feel...

The trip from Whitemeadow Manor’s living quarters and the main hall was uneventful. Lord and Lady Whitemeadow made small polite noises as they strolled arm in arm through the labyrinth of back hallways. When they drew closer to their destination, Antonello felt a shift in the air around the both of ...

“My lady is to be diplomatic, today, rather than martial.” The answer came, not from Aleksasha, but from the slender man who had, eventually and at length, followed her down from above. Aniseth Whitemeadow, Duke of Heled, Earl of Eloss, and a former ward of the Lord Empress, descended the stairs wit...

Aster watched the doctor's face and she bit her lower lip. "Doctor, please if you can, tell me how it is making you feel? Do you need me to do anything for you?" She asked as she moved closer to him. Her concern was plain as she watched him, but they were doing an experiment and he had insisted to b...
