Unwarranted Anger

Arkay snarled as golden blood dripped down the steps and seeped into the grass. That Voidborn had not been like the previous hopeful, potential boyfriends, not at all. Despite Arkay repeatedly saying that no, no one wanted to date the black and gold Voidborn that smelled weirdly of vanilla, the bastard had decided to get … Read more

Job Offer Decisions

Arkay wasn’t feeling right. He was tired and angry and hungry. Mostly the latter two. Arkay’s problems were made worse by the fact that, over the previous week, he and his fellow Decay Lords had run into all sorts of problematic little things. Ship parts randomly breaking down, communications failing randomly, the food and drink … Read more

Repeating Patterns

“Things are too good right now.” Litvir looked up from his bowl of meaty stew to where Arkay was standing. He was in the middle of making himself a sandwich, but seemed to have just frozen in place. However, the emotions emanating from the little Decay Lord were anything but still. “Arkay, is something wrong?” … Read more

A Biased History Lesson

“Good morning, class, and welcome to your first lesson in Decay Lord logistics!” Kuta and Arkay were completely alone in the observatory. Several chairs and desks were set up, not to mention a large, plastic white board, but there was no one else around. “Excuse me?” Kuta couldn’t help but ask. “This all seems excessive … Read more

New Responsibilities

Kuta’s eyes widened as he watched the colossal, armoured beast tentatively erected what looked like a plastic tent in what Kuta assumed was the ship’s cargo bay or something. Lord Galyn seemed to have a hint of concern, but his movements were swift and calm, despite his size. “Do we really have to do this?” … Read more

Skirting Forgiveness

“What did you just say?” Retvik looked up at Kuta. They had just finished filling out the paperwork, signing Kuta up as a bonafide Decayling, complete with brief physical assessment and a cool little code name. This sudden outburst was that, sudden. “I… did not say anything?” Retvik blinked. “You said something about having intercourse … Read more

Disbelief in Reality

Kuta sat in his chair, feeling very deflated. Sure, he had managed to resurrect himself and cause his evil twin brother a great deal of pain, but nothing felt right. He thought he’d explode back to life in the middle of something important, pointing out how corrupt Litvir was and exposing the horrors of being … Read more

Unsatisfactory Explanations

“I think we all have a little bit of explaining to do…” Galyn grunted as he sat everyone down. “Arkay, did you put the ship on autopilot?” “Yeah…” Arkay answered, delicately placing a large plate of sandwiches in the middle of the table. He had no idea what was going on, but everyone was confused … Read more

Sudden Gut Pains

“AAAAAAAAAAHH!” Litvir’s scream echoed down the hallway, bouncing off the walls and tearing through the minds of his crew mates. He hadn’t intended to scream so loud, but the sudden tearing pain in his stomach had caught Litvir completely off guard. The pain stabbed at Litvir like a rolling tide, ebbing and flowing, but definitely … Read more

Teleportation Request Denied

“Fuck.” “What?” “Piss.” “What?!” “MULTIPLE CURSE WORDS!” Arkay turned to Galyn, almost insulted by Galyn’s choice of swearing. “Did you really just say-” “I did…” Galyn snarled, smashing his fingers into a screen. On it, several words flashed repeatedly. “This is so much shit. The damned bureaucracy around here!” Arkay read and re-read the words … Read more
