Interrupting Invitation

“Hey kiddo!” The warm, friendly voice was met with stony silence as Arkadin continued his work, clearly in the middle of something important. Everything was dark and gloomy in the tiny little office, aside from a single beam of light pointed at a microscope, providing the only illumination in the room. “Uh, kid?” Arkadin remained … Read more

Spacial Letterbox

“Good morning, Kinisis, did you rest well?” The Allmaker kicked the blankets off her bed. Both she and Kenon knew that Kinisis never really slept, she would just take short breaks with her eyes closed, but Kinisis appreciated the sentiment. Everything within this cute little bedroom seemed rather ill-fitting for the being that created the … Read more

Repeated Conversations of Separation

“Retvik, I am so happy to hear your voice!” Gath’s deep, booming voice echoed down the crackly line. He seemed slightly out of breath, as if he had rushed off to answer the call. Retvik briefly wondered why, then decided to just talk. He had a lot of things on his mind and sitting in … Read more

Packing Things Up

“Hey Gath!” Psiksi waved as the front door opened up. He and Kass had arrived as soon as they could, after Tenuk had called them saying that Gath didn’t seem right. “What’s up?” The hulking Rethan grunted, looking not at all amused by this unexpected interruption. The two Skyans both peered past Gath and into … Read more

Bedtime Thoughts

“Please, Rethais, come to bed.” The High General had been standing by the tinted window for at least an hour, gazing off at the city of Thre-Vretantia, one of the main capitals of the planet Retha. Physically, Rethais was the perfect Rethan specimen, but deep down, Rethais was mentally exhausted from a never-ending stream of … Read more

The Day After

“Feeling any better?” Trismit remained fixated at the plate of food in front of him. Despite the severity of what had happened, the Rethan government had been very calm and understanding with him. He hadn’t been locked up or persecuted or anything like that. In fact, all they had done was put him in a … Read more

Twinned Shadows, Twisted Reality

Trismit led Retvik down corridor after corridor, past rooms filled with canisters, all linked and wired together and all leading to a single, utterly dark chamber. Inside were monitors, all as silent as the chamber itself, and a single, lone canister. “Alright, what the fuck is going on?” Retvik snarled as Trismit fiddled with a … Read more

The Realization

Nothing made sense. Retvik had just been standing next to Trismit in a seedy little office, leaning on the desk shifting through maps and working on their plans to escape. Step one had worked perfectly. But now nothing was as it seemed. Everything was pitch black but everything was wet and salty as well. Retvik … Read more

Generating Flame

In the time it had taken for Retvik to get Kuta to the hospital wing, the shadowy Rethavok had attempted to throw himself off ledges and down stairs no more than ten times. But after what had seemed like a few hours of worries and discomfort, everything seemed to be finally settling down. Kuta’s sudden … Read more

Concrete Balcony

“Wait wait wait wait!” Retvik’s voice echoed down the hallway as a small, red and white robot drifted by, hovering the ground and sucking up dirt. “What?” Kuta asked, holding a broom. “You have cleaning robots?” “Yeah. The whole facility is automized or automaticed or autowhatever it’s called… Automated. It’s all automated.” Retvik stopped what … Read more

Insecurities Given Form

“Oh… you’re back…” Arkadin sighed as he opened the door to be greeted by a very sticky Yisini. Her scales were glistening underneath a large amount of slime and goo that Arkadin couldn’t recognise and she stank of a fake, strawberry scent. “I am! I came to make sure you are doing well!” Yisini basically … Read more

Epani’s Little Desires

Arkadin was quite happily sweeping up the remains of a burnt forest when the sky above him went peculiarly dark. According to his universal clock, it wasn’t due to become night on this little, somewhat lifeless planet for a few more hours, so this was quite strange. There was no wildlife or anything nearby to … Read more

Litvir’s New Plan

“Why is there a fire in the middle of the canteen?” “I was going to ask you the same thing…” Retvik shrugged as he stood in the doorway, watching as Nisir and Isir worked together to snuff out flames and get rid of burning paperwork. By his side, Trismit was rolling his eyes and Kuta … Read more

A Complete Flip

Retvik stood to attention as the cell door opened. He was aching all over, but he was about to re-obtain his freedom after far too many days locked inside a cell, so Retvik didn’t care much. To his surprise though, he found himself being pushed back as someone forced their way into Retvik’s arms, gently … Read more

A Scene From An Unwanted Future

“He’s so unhappy, Kairos…” The Whenvern and the Allbirther perched on the small, crystal platform, floating high above the desolate island, peering down at the tiny house and its lone occupant. They had been watching for a few hours now, splitting their time between spying on the lonely being and having mind-blowing steamy sex sessions … Read more
