Brief Intimacy

“Oh, I did not think you would just… instantly arrive…” Retvik smiled weakly as he picked Kuta up off the floor. As always, his cute little poten-partner had briefly knocked themselves out by shadowjumping to Retvik’s bedroom. But today, Kuta seemed far more tired than normal. They were almost delirious as Retvik placed them gently … Read more

Colossal Thraki

“Is it just me, or is that a very, very large Thraki?” Psikay had been enjoying his current duties of looking after a sleeping death god, but right now, he was quite concerned. Sure, his team of K-Class soldiers, working alongside a team of Ksithans, a mini-tribe of Banikans and half a Rethan Legion hadn’t … Read more

Immutable Thread of Inaction

It had been a very, very long time since Tenuk had been forced to get between Retvik and Elksia. Back when they (Retvik and Elksia) were young, both of them were quite fiery. Elksia was energetic and quick to anger, Retvik was always overly proud and unwilling to admit he was wrong. As they aged, … Read more

Considerations For Revenge

Arkay expected to wake up in a cage, but, for some reason, he was in a comfy bed. He wasn’t even chained to it or anything. He was just lying there. And sitting by his side was Sini, not doing anything in particular. “Hello, brother. How did you sleep?” “Uh… angrily…” Arkay hissed, wondering what … Read more

Stay-At-Home Date

It had been a while since Retvik had had so few people in his home. Kayel was on a date with Psiksi and had stayed at Psiksi’s oversized mansion down the road; Nyssi was on a date with Timik and they’d gone clubbing; and Tenuk was… somewhere. Apparently he was meeting with a new house … Read more

The Rage of Life Goddesses

Kairos could count on one foot the number of times he’d had to physically get between Epani and Sini to stop an argument, but today, that number had increased by one and now he needed both feet. Normally, the two Life Goddesses would argue like civilized beings, but Epani had outright lashed out at Sini, … Read more

The Shield and Stave Pub

Theocydes froze in place as he entered The Shield and Stave, a small Decay Lord pub within the Ventra Expanse, and saw the being behind the bar. Vekeus, his fellow Adogtic Voidborn friend, bumped into Theocydes’s back, not expecting him to stop. “Hello!” a friendly Decay Lord waved from the bar. “We don’t normally get … Read more

Lost Vahla Warrior

Talok leapt to her feet as consciousness returned to her. When she’d fallen unconscious, she’d been attacked. While Talok had powerful telepathic and telekinetic powers (as well as an array of other, more secret abilities), there was little she could have done when the room she was trapped in filled with sedative gasses. One sharp … Read more

Battling Lights

The occupants of the two Lanexian ships gazed in wander as they watched a strange, tantalizing display of colour unfold before them. Neither ship was really supposed to be there, in the presence of the twisting and turning lights, but an interspace chase had led them to the strange sight. The Coldspear was a ship … Read more

Meeting of Multiple Trios

“Not very often that you have four Trios around a table!” Telin beamed as he got out the fancy tankards, a collection of specially made drinking vessels with a button on the side. Pressing the button and concentrating on what drink you wanted would automatically fill the tankard with the fluid of your choice. These … Read more

Voidborn Farewell

Theocydes liked this little universe. He had never been inside it, stepping inside that universe would get Theocydes killed, or at the very least force him to respawn. He didn’t want to risk that. Still, the little universe was important. It contained one of the beings that had caused the entire local pentacluster to be … Read more

Dating The Same Guy

Souldrainer: Hello, dearest Kuta. I am sorry for running away and scaring you. Spiritdrainer: Litvir! It is a small miracle that I am saying this at all, but I am glad you are not dead! What happened? Poor Kyr Retvik sounded so heartbroken on voice chat. Souldrainer: Multiple empathic overloads, mostly. One of your awful … Read more

Bloodline Ended

Retvik checked the map, then looked up at the building in front of him, then checked the map again. The map said he was in the correct place. The presence of members of the 47th Legion suggested he wasn’t. This bothered Retvik greatly, because the 47th Legion, dressed up in black, red and gold, was … Read more

Manipulated Conversation

Sini peered into the tiny bedroom where Arkay was sleeping. He’d been hard at work, destroying a particularly aggressive Corruption, a mindless subsection of the Nekro-Kinisis strain, that had tried to latch itself to the bottom of the universe, where the old Earth Bones used to be. It had taken a while, but Arkay had … Read more

Eternal Lack of Self-Worth

“So you spoke to Arkay.” Kaytee felt absolutely tiny right now. Standing before him were Retvik and Litvir, the two leaders of the Thantir. By Kaytee’s side was Teekay, AKA Shocktrooper, and one of the Thantir Decaylings. Someone Kaytee considered to be a better person than himself. “He accidentally invited me into a group chat … Read more
