Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Are you busy right now?” Litvir glanced up from their packet of potato crisps. They were just sitting on the sofa, staring blankly ahead. “Oh, hello Kyr Relkir. I am not busy. Do you… need me?” “Not in particular…” Relkir sat down next to Litvir. Litvir was a good 40cm taller than Relkir, despite being … Read more
The sofa was soft. Very soft. Fabric covered and fluffy. The cushions were filled with feathers and the seats were backed up by a weird foam. Either way, Litvir was feeling very, very comfortable right now. Sure, Litvir had several beds, but none of them were as comfortable as the sofa Litvir was currently lying … Read more
Most Rethan kids stayed within their local Junior Stratos sub-legion, where they’d live together and learn together at the same time, and they only went home on the weekends. Litvir though normally stayed until Monday morning, at the barracks of their sub-legion, only occasionally staying with one of the other Twelve Anew. Either with Elkay … Read more
The final bell for school echoed across the Junior Stratos Sub-Legion, signalling the end of the work day. Normally, Litvir would have hated that, because they knew they’d have to rush back to their tiny room in the main barracks, do as much homework as possible and then immediately rush off to do their actual … Read more
After-school activities were common at the Junior Stratos, and there was often several after-school activities every day, set up for all sorts of interests for young Rethans. Litvir though normally missed these fun extra lessons, and would spend what little spare time they had in the study halls, trying to do as much homework as … Read more
It felt wrong, not wearing heavy armour. Litvir always wore armour. The strong, metal armour. They needed to, as it was their duty to protect the universe, and, in order to do that, Litvir had to protect themselves. Today though, Litvir was wearing casual armour. Similar to what everyone else was wearing. Litvir only had … Read more
“Um, hello, ma- uh… Kyr Elkay…” “Hello, Litvir, please, come in!” For reasons Elkay couldn’t quite work out, Litvir seemed somewhat uneasy today, as they entered Elkay’s office. Elkay noticed that Litvir was clutching their gun-staff very tightly, and there were specks of gold blood all over them. Litvir glanced around, then did as they … Read more
“I think they are trying to throw off my branches…” No one had really said anything for a while. While most of the Decaylings were asleep, both Nyssi and Thassalin had decided to join Ret and Kuta on the beach. The two Rethans had been somewhat camping outside, spending their time eating s’mores, and Nyssi … Read more
“Heya, how you doing?” Kayel was busy doing a bit of training on his own. The training mostly involved trying to hit targets with his elemental powers. Throwing balls of fire seemed pretty easy, but Kayel was currently experimenting with little ice daggers. “Oh, hey Psiksi!” Kayel turned to face who was talking to him. … Read more
“Good day, Lady Epani.” The Allmaker normally didn’t need to check in on her twelve little deities, but occasionally, they’d come to her, asking for advice. All of them were very good at their jobs, they’d worked pretty much flawlessly so far, and Epani was actually proud of them. None of the Twelve Anew hated … Read more
Pentathax ships landing at Savepoint were pretty common. While they could normally fix up minor corruptions without too much hassle, anything that potentially needed more delicate surgery or was at risk of amputation was sent to the Thantir to be purified. Today though, a small 2-seater ship had just touched down, and the resident Psions … Read more
While both Retvik and Litvir were the leaders of the Thantir, that didn’t stop either of them doing more mundane jobs, and they were happy to get their hands dirty if they needed to. Currently, Retvik was on guard duty, because he wanted to give Galyn and Itaviir a bit of a break and also … Read more
“Alright! Team meeting!” Nyssi had dragged everyone into the room that the higher up folks were using as a classroom. Gathered around were all eight Decaylings, some of them more anxious than others. “What do you need, Nyssi?” Kuta immediately asked, watching as Kayel and Ret pushed tables together, making a vaguely circular shape. “I … Read more
Letharus yawned, then grinned as he stretched himself out and put an arm around Vick. “Hey, darling…” Vick whispered as he snuggled up closer. “Did you sleep well?” “I slept like a well-fed puppy. Is it time to get up?” “Mhm!” Vick smiled. “But I want to snuggle more.” Vick shrugged. “I know, but we … Read more
“You’re struggling.” Phovoula tried to sigh to herself, but couldn’t actually exhale. Or inhale. Currently, Phovoula was standing in front of a mirror in the public bathroom and shower room, staring at her reflection. “I am, yes.” With an odd click, Phovoula turned to see who was talking to her. It was Phovos, Phovoula’s old-universe … Read more
