Super Weird Duty
“Hello, dearies, how are you all?”
Retvik was not at all amused. The Allbirther had just ruined his favourite sofa with her colossal, serpentine body. Thankfully, Sini was not all slimy, but she normally left some sort of strange, floral smell wherever she went.
“I would be happier if you knocked on...Read More »
Psiksi's Wardrobe
“Aren’t you supposed to be training for your match or something right now?” Psiksi asked as he watched Kayel rummage through his wardrobe. Kayel had his own wardrobe at home, but Psiksi always kept a full wardrobe in his private training area, because he was a very popular person and...Read More »
The Sexy Plan
“Hello, dear.”
“OH FUCK!”
Kayel had just been lying in bed, as naked as a Skyan could be, thinking… thoughts, when the massive, pink Temthan appeared at the foot of his bed. Instinct kicked in and Kayel rolled off the bed, through a shadow on the floor and reappeared behind the sofa...Read More »
Waking Up In Someone Else's Bed
Arkadin rubbed his head as consciousness returned to him. That was the first time he had been unconscious since he’d been reset and gone back to his cold, lonely duties, and he was certain he’d been attacked. However, as the world around him began to focus, Arkadin realized something was...Read More »
Chastised by a Mortal
All things considered, the last hour or so was… genuinely nice. Arkadin didn’t want to admit that he was enjoying both not working and spending time with a cute Skyavok, but, well, he was. He hadn’t stopped working since the 29th, he hadn’t stopped at all, not even to eat...Read More »
Fluffy Concerns
“I find it so weird that a collective species shut down most of the city last week and the same thing is kinda happening this week…” Tenuk tutted as he sat on the sofa, browsing on his tablet, swishing his fluffy tail back and forth. “It’s been weird that Nyssi’s...Read More »
Donuts and TV
“Hey! You came back!” Kayel beamed as he opened the front door to his tiny apartment.
Arkadin, the Thantophor and god of death, glanced around awkwardly. “Uh, yeah, I guess I did.”
Kayel dragged Arkadin inside, then closed the door behind him, before gently forcing Arkadin onto the sofa. Kayel then playfully...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...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...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...Read More »
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...Read More »
A New Job for Thassalin
Thassalin had been brooding for a while, licking his wounds, mostly his pride. After a fight with the Dragon God of Time, Thassalin had shrunk down and disappeared into the undergrowth, only to slither back to his little mountain home and hide away, fearing vengeance. It turned out, Thassalin wasn’t...Read More »
Great House Mate
“How much is your rent?”
Kayel had admittedly forgotten that he’d let the God of Decay stay in his apartment. But to be fair, Arkay had been the perfect room mate. Apart from the pillow and the light blanket on the sofa, one wouldn’t have known Arkay was there. He...Read More »
Battered Pink Thraki
Nyssi had planned to go to the Torn Islet on her own, to check in with her cousins and help them move into new accommodation, but since Retvik didn’t have any plans and had been pacing around being anxious, she’d decided to bring him with her. Not only did Retvik...Read More »
Strange New Friends
“So, what the fuck are you doing here on Portalia?”
Thassalin shifted awkwardly on his seat. He was a Thraki, he wasn’t used to sitting on chairs. At least, not Temthan chairs. While Temthans did vary greatly in height and size, they were all upright beings and they all had long...Read More »
Into Temptation
“Oh hey, you’re a cat again!” Kayel smiled as he let himself in, immediately took off all his clothes and threw them into the washing machine. Kayel blatantly didn’t care that he’d just stripped off in front of the God of Death, he was hot, sexy, young-ish and had been...Read More »
Birthday Mess
Phovos didn’t know what to expect as she knocked on the front door to the large, fancy villa. The only indication that she was in the right place was a single red balloon tied to the lamp post in front of the house, next to a red and gold Rethan...Read More »
Battered and Bruised
Retvik gasped for breath as he suddenly woke up in his bed, his head spinning and nausea in his throat. Something… something had happened. Retvik hadn’t gone to bed. It was 2pm. Far too early for bed. The memories slowly trickled back. It was his birthday party. He had friends...Read More »
Ruined Birthday Aftermath
The Raptor had raced back to Retvik’s villa as fast as she possibly could, and she’d brought some of her guards with her. But as she reached the front door and was let in, Phovos realized she didn’t really need to.
“Hello, Queen!” Talok clicked. The little Vohra seemed chirpy on...Read More »
Dispa
“Epani, we need to talk.”
Kairos and Sini both glanced at each other, having said the same words at the same time. They had both been busy doing semi-related things. Kairos had been checking potential future snapshots in order to make sure that the universe was safe, and Sini had been...Read More »
Awkward Reassurances and Questions
“Thanks for the ride, mate!” Nyssi smiled as Kuta pulled her through the shadow in Retvik’s bedroom. She’d been somewhat stuck at her place at the Torn Islet, mostly because an angry space goddess had teleported everyone home, but Nyssi’s truck had been left outside, parked in front of Retvik’s...Read More »
New Game
Kayel frowned as he struggled with the controls to this strange games console he was using. While Kayel had played video games before, he normally played on his little laptop, or on Psiksi’s PlayBox, a Spast gaming system that Psiksi had bought Skyavok-compatible controllers for. The portal console Kayel was...Read More »
Alternate Access
“Litvir! Are you busy? Can we talk?”
Akah skidded past the open door to the joint Thantir Leaders’ office, span around and peered inside. Being someone used to walking on icy terrain, Akah knew how to not slip over and since both the main villa and the patient areas were always...Read More »
More Game
KL1492L: yay we did it
IceShield: We did, good job!
While Kayel may not have understood, well, anything about this strange game, mostly because all the voice acting was in a language he didn’t know, he was slowly getting the hang of things. Thanks to this friendly IceShield guy, Kayel had slowly...Read More »
Get Up
“Hey, little brother, how was your nap?”
Arkay rubbed his eyes as he slowly came to. He wasn’t supposed to have woken up. While death wasn’t an option for Death Himself, Arkay had planned to put himself in a coma, letting his godly duties be run subconsciously, while he slept away...Read More »
Coming Back
A knock on the door scared the life out of Kayel.
Over the last week or so, Kayel had been regularly switching between his small apartment in the Skyan sub-district of Salla and Retvik’s villa in the mixed race sub-district of Skipou. He’d originally told his team it was because Kayel...Read More »
Back Online
The good news, Tahvra was finally asleep. He’d been in a state of near panic for far too long, jumping at shadows and begging Akah to stay with him at all times. Of course, Akah had done just that, to the point that he’d let Tahvra sit on his lap...Read More »
Remembering Again
Deathbringer: Um, hi. You certainly sent me a lot of messages over the last, uh, while.
Souldrainer: Arkay! You finally made it online!
Souldrainer: That took you forever.
Deathbringer: Sorry… You can call me now.
“So is the dude there?” Kayel asked as he lounged on the sofa behind where Arkay was sitting.
“Yeah, he’s…”...Read More »
Stop Waiting
“What is all of this about?” Retvik grunted as Litvir hurriedly dragged him into the office and shut the door, before pulling him over to Litvir’s desk, where his laptop was sitting, open. Litvir then forced Retvik to sit down and look at the laptop screen. Immediately, Retvik worked out...Read More »
Words of Settling
Souldrainer: You bastard.
Souldrainer: Take it back. Please. Take it back.
Souldrainer: I need you. I am wiling to wait forever. Take it back.
Souldrainer: Your words hurt me.
Souldrainer: I will wait. I fucking will. For twenty billion of your years if I have to.
Souldrainer: I will I swear
Souldrainer: why did you say...Read More »
Seeking Shelter In An Apartment Block
“Um, there’s someone at the door.”
Kayel blinked, then sighed. He was busy making out with a super hot death god, the first person Kayel had properly seduced in a long time, and just as things were about to get naked and very sexy, something had to ruin it.
“Mind telling me...Read More »
Another Voidborn Check-In
It was weird, sharing a bed with someone.
Originally, when Arkay accidentally found himself sharing an apartment with Kayel, a cute yellow-plated Skyan he’d somehow made immortal, Arkay had slept on the sofa. He didn’t really sleep much, only for a couple of hours a day. He did his best to...Read More »
An Uncertain Decision
“It’s so damn nice being allowed to freely shadowjump!” Kayel exclaimed as he leaped through the big shadow in the corner of his apartment. “I’ve saved so much damn money on fuel, you have no idea! Alright, kinda spending the savings on ammo to shoot pigeons if I exert myself...Read More »
Interrupting Session Zero
“That is a lot of snacks, paper and dice.”
“Well, we have a lot to go over!”
Retvik glanced around the room, feeling ever so slightly nervous. The last time Arkay was here, the Panelix (the goddess Retvik used to worship) had invaded, teleported his friends across the universe, beaten Arkay up,...Read More »
Waking Up On The Floor To Questions
“Hey, guys, I think he’s waking up!”
Arkay rubbed his eyes as he rolled over and picked himself up. Standing over him were his team of friends, plus an extra friendly face.
“So, which of them did you save this time?” Sini asked as she helped Arkay to his feet. “You were...Read More »
Mimicky Bastards
Deathbringer: Hey, Elkay, how are you doing?
Unender: Oh, hello, Arkadin.
Unender: Sorry, uh, are you Arkadin or Arkay? I am not sure.
Deathbringer: Whoever signed me up as a Decay Lord put my name down as Arkidetelos for some fucking reason, but I prefer being called Arkay.
Unender: Understandable. Does mean we have...Read More »
Mimicky Bastards 2
Unender: Hello, Arkay, are you around?
Deathbringer is now online.
Deathbringer: Oh, heya Elkay! What’s up?
Unender: Nothing much. I enjoyed our talk the other, uh, day and wanted to talk again.
Deathbringer: Is something wrong?
Unender: No, no. It is just that time of, uh, day.
Unender: I am still not used to the lack...Read More »
