Steps Forward

“Hey! You came back already!” Kayel was grinning as he opened the door to his apartment, but that grin very quickly faded as he realized that Arkay had fabric wrapped around his neck and wrists. “Uh… are you well?” “No… can I come in?” Kayel nodded and led Arkay in, gently closing the door behind … Read more

Steps Backward

“We need to talk, Arkadin.” Arkay sighed as he fell into his black bean bag chair. The other three deities had thrones. He had a sack full of polystyrene beads. However, Epani wasn’t using her ornate gold and red throne, she was standing on the table between them all, hands on her hips, clearly looking … Read more

Coffee at the Mall

“Well, piss.” Arkay’s shoulders dropped as he realized that the coffee shop he had brought Kayel to was closed. And had been closed for a good couple of months. “So, uh, was there a reason why you brought me here?” Kayel asked. “Yeah. I found this place when I was looking for an apartment to … Read more

A Very Large Gift

The Thantir Eight were sitting around after locking the place up for the day, and they were now all working on the finer details of Teekay and Elkay’s wedding ceremony. Joining them were Kaytee and Telecharm, who were technically the same person, and Litvir, who Elksia and Akah were awkwardly measuring up with pieces of … Read more

Unwanted Contact

Despite the fact that Relkir had been caught in the crossfire of an assassination attempt on their sibling, the High General, they were feeling pretty good. Not only had their beloved poten-partner Gath been by Relkir’s side the entire time, but they also got to spend extra time with their sibling Retvik. Kuta was there … Read more

11pm Visit

The knock on the door did admittedly make Kayel jump, but it was the muttering he could hear that bothered him more. A defeated sigh and the repeated words of “I shouldn’t be here” and “why am I doing this?” were enough to force Kayel out of bed and see what was going on. It … Read more

Additional Voidborn Guests

“Oh, I am so, SO glad to have help these days!” Vekeus exclaimed loudly as he waltzed into the one actually nice pub in the Ventra Expanse that also served Adogtic Voidborns. Behind him were two other Voidborns, the old-fashioned Kesistatir and the almost-normal-looking Theocydes, who would have been fine if he wasn’t completely silver … Read more

Fighting A Shadow

“Tolmes, mes’sto spito mou! Mes’sta skota!” There was a Rethan in Elkay’s bedroom, trying to shoot him with what looked like a small, automatic pistol of some sort. It was a blatant assassination attempt, and the only reason why Elkay’s elite team of former Phantasma body guards hadn’t come in and tried to save Elkay … Read more

Technically A Legend

“So, you’re Souldrainer? The terrifying psionic mastermind that tore through the highest levels of security on Deathven Sector Alpha and broke one of the Overlord’s biggest secrets?” Litvir put his drink down and turned his attention to the Decay Lord who had sat down opposite him. Telecharm, who was apparently called Teekay Dy-Theanon because they … Read more

A Different Attempt

There was a dead Rethan on the floor. A young, dead Rethan, with purple plating and a gold collar around their neck. Atuho, the Imperator of the Vast Sands, didn’t like getting his hands dirty, but, well, this Rethan had broken into his sleeping quarters and tried to kill him. He hadn’t intended to kill … Read more

Potentially Unreliable Evidence

“Did you get any information?” Kuta repeatedly bashed their head against the table. They had been doing so for a good five minutes. Anything to distract them from the dizziness, the migraine, the bubbling anger in the back of their mind, screaming that Kuta wasn’t safe and needed to lash out. Eventually, they calmed down … Read more

First Guest

Teekay growled as Elkay suddenly climbed out of bed and stood up straight in a rather panicked state. They were supposed to be snuggling and making out, but Elkay had abruptly stopped and stared at the door, looking rather anxious. “Hey, babe, what the fuck are you doing?” “There is someone here.” “Whoever they are, … Read more
