Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
The evening had turned out quite nice, but Kuta was still somewhat shocked at how they had been so blatantly ‘adopted’ into this small family of friends. Admittedly, Kuta hadn’t really said much. They had sat back and mostly just listened in, but they definitely felt like they fit in. As time passed, everyone had … Read more
“Today’s been weird…” Tenuk muttered as he sat down with a drink and a bowl of marshmallows. He was supposed to have been eating more healthily as part of a training routine to give himself more muscle mass, but Tenuk had been struggling, and it turned out that Spasts couldn’t really get muscular anyway. “I … Read more
Being a small, mechanical being that also somehow had emotions, Nuh regularly wished that he had a way of expressing them outside of the tone of his flat, mechanical voice, and the brightness of his large, lime green crystal eyes. Sure, Nuh would occasionally use his telepathy to express particularly strong emotions to his siblings, … Read more
“Tenuk, we need to talk, right now.” Tenuk rolled his eyes as he and Plasmablade, a fiery orange and silver Phantai Decay Lord, turned to face the flaming, clearly angry Rethan standing before them. “Oh, hello Flamebearer!” Plasmablade beamed. “It is an honour! How can I and my new friend Mimicblade assist you?” Retvik grunted, … Read more
Kuta was utterly miserable. It had been a long time since they’d experienced a breakup, and Kuta was taking it badly. Things were made worse by the fact that they still loved each other. And things were made awkward by the fact that Kuta had been forced to report the breakup to others. In hindsight, … Read more
“I assume your meeting with the Whenvern did not go well…” Kuta did not need their telepathy to tell that Arkay was utterly broken inside. The Thantophor was currently in the form of a beautiful yellow-plated Rethavok, but black tears were running from his eyes, gnawing at the silver armour he was wearing. Normally, Arkay … Read more
Arkay hated this particular Chrono-Palace. The Whenvern had four Chrono-Palaces, four large homes, one in each corner of the universe, situated on the exact Y coordinate of zero, but this one, the Crystal Coliseum, was made entirely out of translucent diamond, meaning you could easily see through most of the walls. And considering that the … Read more
“This is the third time in three days that you have had nightmares.” Kuta stood in the kitchen, arms crossed and tutting, as they watched Arkay make an impromptu midnight snack of fried eggs and buttered bread. “Yeah. Third night where I’ve had nightmares about you…” “You said you get nightmares regularly though. What is … Read more
“So, how can we repay you?” Really, in Telin’s eyes, it was almost insulting having the Tattered Navigators in his grand office, but since Retvik and Litvir had requested their presence, Telin was in no real position to say no. The Great Blades had arranged a meeting with the youngling Thantir leaders, and they seemed … Read more
“Rethais, I demand that you cease your current actions!” General Vaksavar marched into the council room, blatantly aware that they were interrupting an important meeting. Sitting around the large, circular table alongside the High General were Lepidas, the Vice General, as well as six of the Below Twenty Generals, including Veksar, the Keeper of the … Read more
Tahvra expected to wake up in a bed on his own, but no, there were… seven…. SEVEN beings all waiting for him. His fellow Thantir Decaylings were all sitting at the end of the bed, smiling and being happy for Tahvra. “How are you feeling?” Akah asked as he got up and waltzed over, handing … Read more
Kuta rubbed their eyes and rolled over as they felt something odd poking against their side. When they had gone to bed earlier, Kuta had been sleeping with a yellow-plated Rethan, but as Kuta turned to look at their beloved poten-partner, they were surprised to see a rather… draconic being. Arkay was still vaguely Threanic, … Read more
“You seem glum.” Phovos couldn’t help but sigh as she pushed food across her plate. She should have been having an amazing time, eating at a very fancy restaurant with a very fancy Ksithan on a very fancy date, but she felt miserable and didn’t know why. This bothered Phovos greatly, because her date was … Read more
“WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU TWO? YOU HAD ME WORRIED SICK!” The average temperature in the main canteen of the Shimmering Blade was normally a comfortable 290K, but right now, everything was very quickly heating up, and the Flames of the Phantai were struggling to stop the temperature from rising. However, as Itaviir and Galyn, … Read more
The House Fighter Training Area was busy today, as head House Fighter Tromos Polemistis, an old Ksithan gladiator, was holding a joint presentation alongside Nyssi Tharru of Xeno Dessaron One, explaining to all the other, non-Banikan House Fighters on the specifics of fighting terror-beasts, specifically the collection of beasts the Raptor had recently had imported. … Read more
