For a mage who’d learned to wield various systems of magic as easily a man drew breath, the grim mundanity of Earth Bet - outside of the murderous supervillains and semi-competent superheroes - was quickly losing whatever luster it originally had, and I actually found myself itching to finally leave it all behind ...

The first thing that Hannah realized, as Avalon made his way over to their truck, was that the man had changed.
In multiple ways.

Three Days Later…
Across the sandy beach, amongst the towering, ripped apart husks of foes long fallen, I faced my mortal foe. She stood confidently, the sorceress girded in black and pink, with one hand on hip and the other pointed directly at me. Around us, toiling away at their eternal work, were my spiritual servants, ghostly sprites and imps the same silvery color as the ...

She could feel her tongue thick and dry in her mouth, saliva having left her alone hours ago at some point in her unconsciousness.

It only lasted a few minutes, but those were some of the longest few minutes of my entire life.
The cleansing hadn’t hurt as much as it simply burned - a cold, scourging sort of heat that seared me from the inside out, like swallowing a fucking bucket of Icy Hot. Everything, and I mean everything, felt like it had been scrubbed clean with a piping hot wire sponge; my soul, the literal so...

Rebecca Costa-Brown was many, many things.
A warrior. An intellectual. A political figure. A daughter.
A hero, and, in some ways that rankled her in a place otherwise completely invulnerable, a villain.

Death’s creepy ass whistle quieting into heavy, oppressive silence, I stared down at Coil’s bloodied and crushed corpse.
It was odd, the way that killing had quickly become something I was completely at ease with - at least when it came to shitty people. Even back then, before I was dropped onto Earth Bet, I had been okay with the thought of k...

I came to a soft landing on top of a rundown apartment building, the silence of the dilapidated neighborhood around me being all the assurance I needed to know that I wouldn’t be bothered for a few minutes.

So, crazy news: ex-fiancée’s in labor.
Shittier news: it happened during a bad break-up. I won’t put my private business out there, but I had a good reason. Trust me.
I’m working to get the next chapter out as soon as I can, but I just wanted to let you guys know why nothing has been released either here or on QQ. Keep me in your fucking prayers brothers, I will try to put my anger into my words!
