Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
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
Telumeus sighed to himself as he watched the final touches being added to his mech by his team of technicians and assistants. His MK9 mech wasn’t ready yet, it didn’t have all the features he wanted, so he’d been forced to use his MK8 mech again. That wasn’t too bad, the MK8 model was perfectly … Read more
“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 trying to sleep with the … Read more
It had been a while since Retvik had visited the Certification Chamber, a fancy building where contracts and things were signed. The chamber was designed to be luxurious since most of its visitors were there for political purposes, ironing out the terms and conditions for arena battles to settle disputes rather than going to war. … Read more
Retvik smiled to himself as he chucked a bag of rubbish into the large, metal skip, then dusted off his hands, raising the ambient temperature around them to kill off any bacteria. He’d had a nice time, but the wedding and the party and all that were now over, most people had gone home and … Read more
“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 lizard tails, so their … Read more
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 need some distractions, but he’d … Read more
“There are so, so many drunk people here!” Telecharm grinned as he and Eksi sat down around the large camp fire, both with satisfied looks on their faces. “Or I am seeing double. I don’t know.” “Actually, I think a lot of people have already left. At least, the dastardly Void Lords are already gone…” … Read more
Retvik rubbed his eyes as he sat up and looked at his communicator, which, for some reason, was ringing. Ringing, but not with a number Retvik was familiar with. Rethan phone numbers were particularly long and consisted of their ID numbers randomly scrambled, an area code and a planet code, plus an extra status code. … Read more
Elkay shuddered briefly as he made his way down the stairs, towards where everyone was sitting, watching and wating. By his side was his brother Retvik, who had kindly offered to walk him down the aisle. In front of them was Tahvra, the adorable little Vohra who had taken the role of ‘Sparkler’, and was … Read more
The Thantir Purification Facility on the floating island of Savepoint, located just off the Athata Rift, was technically closed today, but there were quite a few ships in the freshly resurfaced parking area, all in different shapes. A familiar orange and silver Phantai cruiser ship; a small, refurbished Ventra ship with bright paint on it; … Read more
It was getting late and everyone else was heading off to bed, but Elkay was sitting on the small beach, watching the waves from the weird, nonsensical lake that made up about a quarter of the floating island of Savepoint. Should there have even been waves? Elkay wasn’t sure, especially since there was no moon … Read more
Spiritdrainer: I am sorry. Spiritdrainer: You were right. Spiritdrainer: It happened again. Souldrainer is now online. Souldrainer: Are you alright? Souldrainer: Can you call me? Spiritdrainer is now online. Spiritdrainer: Hello, Litvir. I do not know if I can call you right now. Spiritdrainer: I have been given medication meant for Vohra that has numbed … Read more
“Not gonna lie, these mini-houses are awfully convenient!” Phovos mused as she watched Akah and Nuh finish setting up a row of them. They weren’t anything fancy, literally just a tiny room with a bed, a chair and close access to some community bathrooms and showers, but since a lot of drinking was expected to … Read more
Kuta rubbed their head, then turned their attention to a bowl of sweet potato soup that had been set out for them. There were a lot of emotions going through Kuta’s poor, battered brain right now, but there were three emotions that stood out: guilt, hunger and horniness. The first was due to a horrible, … Read more
