Partial Assholiness

While the Thantir Two had plenty of self-repairing facilities, repairing windows wasn’t really one of them. Sure, the ship could generate new panes of glass, but it couldn’t reinstall them. That was why Arkay was currently helping Litvir reseal sheets of glass in the observatory. The glass panels had been put back in place, but … Read more

Returning Attack

The glass panel buckled briefly before shattering, scattering shards across the floor. Theocydes had made his entrance and was clearly looking for a fight, standing alongside his three minions. But his opponents seemed to have other ideas, as one of his minions were immediately blasted out into the Void by a fiery explosion. “I just … Read more

Falsified Signals

“We need to be quick, I have not been able to pinpoint the exact location, but it seems, whoever sent this, they are trapped within their ship, which has caught fire and-” Galyn came to an abrupt halt, his eyes focused on the tiny yellow and black being sitting in his chair. Retvik and Litvir … Read more

Relationship Thoughts

“Do you feel better now?” “Mhm.” Litvir stretched his arms out as he and Retvik relaxed on the bed. It was only just large enough for them both, but that didn’t matter. Litvir was only a temporary visitor to Retvik’s quarters, but today’s visit had been much more… fun than usual. For reasons neither he … Read more

Discussions of Broken Loops

“You know what’s weird?” Arkay grunted, trying to find a more comfortable position. “What’s weird? Aside from the fact that you’re talking to me while you work and I’m hiding in an air duct, trying to avoid existence and responsibilities?” Teekay shrugged at Arkay’s comment. He was quite happy, leaning back in his chair, filing … Read more

Decay Disappearance

“Have either of you two seen Arkay?” Both young Decay Lords shrugged. Litvir had just returned from checking on the ammunition in the ship’s mounted turrets, while Retvik was holding a sandwich that Galyn had requested he make for him. “No, ser, we have not.” Galyn frowned. “That is annoying. He was supposed to have … Read more

Awkward Request Denied

“I think you assholes forgot something.” Arkay was clearly annoyed. Litvir and Retvik could tell, because he was currently 4m tall and blocking the hallway in front of them, scowling with his arms crossed. “Is this about us-” “Yes.” “What did we-” “I heard all of it!” Arkay snapped, quickly shutting Litvir up. “You fucking … Read more

Bounties Accepted

“No!” “No?” “I refuse!” Galyn tilted his head to one side, staring down at Arkay. The four Decay Lords ere standing around the navigational panel, discussing the various shopping list of potential jobs they could do. The original plan was to explore the local system, but various bounties and job opportunities had cropped up, and … Read more

Test Flight

A stunned silence rippled through the cockpit. Galyn had just started the movement engines of the Thantir Two, expecting pretty much nothing to work. Instead, everything was working as intended, and the engines were purring away, ready to go. In fact, they sounded far quieter than normal. “Alright, which of you three did this?” Retvik … Read more

2D Maps of a 4D Plane

“Everything has been checked?” “Yes.” “Double checked?” “Yes.” “Triple checked?” “Yes.” “… Quadruple checked?” “Yeah.” “… Quintuple checked?” “Uh… not everything. But most of it has been quintuple checked.” Galyn shrugged, crossing his arms as he looked up from a large pile of sheets of paper. “Eh, good enough. Normally only go to quadruple checks … Read more

30 Hour Text Chats

Litvir watched as Arkay sneaked out of his room, tiptoed down the hallway and slip into the kitchen. After a minute of sandwich construction and three minutes of grilling action, Arkay reappeared holding a few too many cheese toasties. He immediately started sneaking back to his room, at which point Litvir decided to ask him … Read more

Ancient Acquaintances

“Hey, congrats on becoming a Decay Lord finally!” Arkay read the message a couple of times, before deciding that the message probably wasn’t meant for him. He’d been a fully fledged Decay Lord for at least a couple of months now, so the message was clearly out of date. That being said, the name of … Read more
