Unappreciated Change

Elkay cursed under his breath as the front door creaked open. He had just wanted to sneak in, grab his gunstaff and leave, but nope, the front door conspired against him, rudely announcing his presence. “I thought I told you lot to bugger off home?” Instinctively, Elkay apologised, only to realise that there was no … Read more

A New, Feminine Look

Yisini curled herself up on the sofa while she watched Arkadin make himself some sort of meal. She had not even bothered asking whether she was allowed in or not and had just let herself in with a spare key, but Arkadin wasn’t really bothered. He was just glad to have everyone off his back … Read more

Frozen Intervention

As Arkadin sat down at the table, he realised something was wrong. Everything was frozen. Well, not frozen, but slowed down enough to look like everything was frozen. At the other end of the table, Kairos sat awkwardly, his head resting on his clawed wings. “What’s going on?” Arkadin immediately asked. “You’ve slowed everything down. … Read more

Exactly as Asked

“AHHH!” A gust of wind slammed the door shut as Arkadin scrambled to find something to cover himself up with. In his panic, he had forgotten that he was a shape-shifting deity that could just magically summon clothing onto himself. Arkadin ended up grabbing a blanket off his bed and wrapping it around himself. The … Read more

Avoiding Furry Fury

The second Tenuk stepped outside, a massive, furry, clawed hand wrapped itself around his throat. Ct’Era, the heavily-built tank of flesh that she was, sneered as she lifted Tenuk off the ground “You violated us.” “I-I-I j-j-just wanted us all to be happy…” “By violating our minds?” “It was just dopamine…” “Means nothing. You betrayed … Read more

Vague Anger

“He’ll see you now.” Normally, only Elkay was allowed to directly talk to the Thantophor. Occasionally Kayen or Psiksi would be allowed in, just to help with some chores, but if the Thantophor wanted to communicate with his guards, he either spoke to the Allmaker and she’d pass the message on, or he’d just talk … Read more

Differences in Control

Out of the twelve of them, Tenuk noticed that Retvik was the one acting the most out of sorts. He hadn’t been drinking or eating properly ever since he had brought his partner over to have a look around. After a day of Retvik acting strange, Tenuk then noticed that Elkay had begun to act … Read more

Shattered Screen

Kinisis smashed the small screen to pieces, then dropped the pieces on Kairos’s lap. “That was uncalled for…” Kairos tutted, sweeping the broken screen up. “I was just showing you potential futures that we avoided.” “I didn’t want to see any of that!” Kinisis snapped. She immediately got up from the pile of cushions that … Read more

Subtle Controls

Gath perched awkwardly on the bed, not sure what to say. His beloved partner had brought him to the place he had been living for the last few weeks and Gath was really not impressed. The room was pleasant enough, but it was very small and tight. A small apartment with everything one Rethavok needed. … Read more

Alternative Thoughts

“Why… why did you show me that…” The Whenvern looked on as Arkadin fidgeted nervously, visibly trembling, trying to focus on the small screen he had been given. The picture on the screen had long faded and was now playing nothing but static, cosmic background radiation that flickered in and out of existence. “Why did … Read more

The Alternative – Part 12

Three shrieks erupted from the main control room as the ship ground to a halt. They had been drifting aimlessly for at least 26 hours, with no engine power and the bare minimum systems running. There was nothing though to crash into, just the vast emptiness of space. “What the fuck was that?” Phovos growled … Read more

The Alternative – Part 11

There was a weird snake creature sitting in front of Arkedetelos. The Thantophor had been nomming its way through various solar systems when the snake creature first appeared and now it was… in the Thantophor’s way. “Hi, brother…” The snake creature had been saying things. Whispers and moans above the understanding of Arkedetelos. Words that … Read more

The Alternative – Part 10

“Things are not looking good…” Kass eyed the various consoles and screens while Psiksi and Phovos attempted to calm Elksia down. The wailinrg Vrekan had been pressed against the window for an hour, screaming into the void, mourning the loss of one of her best friends. “Sorry, Kass?” Phovos suddenly asked, giving up on Elksia. … Read more

The Alternative – Part 9

“YOU KILLED MY FAVOURITE DAUGHTER!” Kenon’s roars of anguish echoed across solar system as the Voidborn erected harsh, electrifying barriers around it, trapping the Thantophor inside. He knew the barriers would not hold the Lord of Death, but that didn’t matter. An hour was all Kenon needed to destroy the vermin that had taken the … Read more

The Alternative – Part 8

A guttural roar rippled through the remains of the planet’s atmosphere as ships scattered like insects, desperately trying to escape the explosions of carnage and destruction. Deities battled above them, using stars as fuel and meteors as ammo, clashing like the titans they were. “YOU MONSTER!” the Panelix howled as she clawed and tore at … Read more
