Big Bad Argument

“Well, I’m not normally one to argue against polling data, but by the Darkness, you can be utterly terrifying, Ret.” Timik and Valorier shrugged as Tanok swept up bits of rubber training mat into a neat pile. Meanwhile, Retvik had just torn through a second rubber mat with his teeth, and was now sitting on … 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 needed time alone, but … Read more

Planning A Name Reveal

“So… I have some explaining to do… Hang on, is that STILL leftover pizza?” Retvik rolled his eyes. “Yes, it is. Unfortunately it is over a week old, and I do not think it is good to eat.” “Aw…” Tenuk frowned, then went back to what he wanted to talk about. “Anyway, well, dad worked … Read more

Three Months

It was weird, sharing a bed with someone again. Kuta glanced to their right, where Retvik had been sleeping, but he had clearly gotten up, possibly to go to the bathroom. The bed was empty right now aside from Kuta, but it was temporary. It made a change. Kuta hadn’t been living in this half-house … 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 made his way … Read more

Trip to the Capital

Tenuk felt rather anxious as he made his way to the exit of the Phos Cerntral Space Port. He’d been flying alongside a lot of travelling Rethans, who were all much, much taller than Tenuk was. That normally wouldn’t have been a problem, but shapeshifting wasn’t allowed in space ports, and getting his luggage and … Read more

Space Port Chat

Tenny: Hey guys, can we voice chat? I’m sitting here in the space port and feel sad. Retty: Yes, of course! Retty: Also, who keeps on changing our nicknames? Nyssy: lol sorry it’s funny tho Kayy: No, it’s fucking stupid. Anyway, Tenuk, we’re free, what’s up? Retvik’s communicator rang as everyone gathered around on the … 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 kept spotlessly clean, the … 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 nice house. “You are welcome…” … 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 the outside but she … Read more

Broken Father

“Son?” Tenuk had been woken up by the sound of a door opening and soft, fluffy footsteps. Slowly approaching the massive, cozy, self-heated bed was the last person Tenuk wanted to see. Fear though petrified Tenuk, making him unable to move as Ahvra, the Lord King of the Spasts, came closer, whispering, weeping. “Tanos, is … 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 round. Kuta was there. So … 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 bicycle. However, as the door … Read more

Triumphant Crown

“Dude.” “What?” “Dude!” “What?” “DUDE!” Retvik snapped to attention, realizing he was in a bed. Standing over him were some familiar faces. Immediately, something blue and fluffy forced its way into Retvik’s arms. This was followed by far too many people trying to hug him, and a shower of confetti. “Dude, you fucking did it!” … Read more

Fight of a Lifetime

The sun had just set, and the audience was eerily quiet as the two gladiators stepped into the main arena. Retvik’s footsteps were almost silent compared to the heavy crunches of Telumeus and his mechanical suit, but both of them were wrapped up in heavy armour, both of them were armed and ready for the … Read more
