A Song of Blackjack and Hookers (chapter 17)

       Daenerys

The small and salt-stained cabin had become as familiar to her as her own thoughts on their journey to Dorne. Still, she tried not to let said thoughts wander as she sat wit...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 10)

The watchtower was already beginning to fall apart into the snow when our happy band of tomb raiders reached it. I caught Skadi almost cleaving some poor fucker in half with her new axe as she and the Companions threw themselves into the melee. 2025-04-02 22:30:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Sore Loser

Jett felt the sweat pouring off of him as he threw blow after blow into the heavy punching bag. How many had it been now? At least a hundred by his count.

Yeah, he was really starting to feel each one.

While his form and fighting style...

ASoBaH Poll #3

We'll be returning back to Solomon for an adventure on the high seas and I have been conflicted about what PoV to go with for it. I have no shortage of interesting options, so figured I would let peeps guide my hand.

But no Solomon PoV, I al...

       Cersei

It was a familiar dream she had found herself in, walking barefoot along the polished stone floors of Casterly Rock. It reminded her of those simpler times when she and Jaime ...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 9)

I had to watch my step as we left Jorrvaskr and the Companions behind, all the mead those maniacs egged me on to drink leaving me a bit of a mess. Whatever I was doing with magicka to give myself form and substance, it seemed to still let me get w...

       The Bear

Jorah let out a quiet breath as he turned the mad plan over in his head for perhaps a third time. If they were caught, he would be lucky to only have a collar placed around ...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 8)

Skadi sighed, a satisfied rumble from her echoing in the quiet of the room.

They had eagerly taken advantage of the accommodations the jarl had so graciously offered them, and in their enthusiasm they had laid another bed low.

Now she ...

       Asha

The Volantene vintage was not unlike liquid silk as she drank deeply of it, its rich taste dancing across her tongue. It tasted even better knowing she had taken it from the per...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 7)

For a moment I wanted to tell her everything. I'd have to be a moron to miss the fact that I had feelings for her now, whatever or wherever this was. I didn't want to lie to her.

But no. Maybe she would just laugh it off, but there was alway...

       Margaery

Tending to her garden, she hummed a half-remembered tune under her breath. There were seven rose bushes altogether now, each bearing roses in every shade of yellow.

Sh...

March Monthly Prompt

Spring is here.

Sore Loser (Street Fighter)

He was a fresh face on the scene, a nobody. The odds on him winning against her were 30 to 1. Maybe that's why Chun-Li had even agreed to his perverted bet.

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 6)

It was always something of a sight to see seven feet of woman on the move, her long hair whipping behind her. While she probably imagined herself as going on a light jog, to me it might as well have been a full-on sprint.

At least this time ...

       Brienne

It was an easy thing for her to keep pace with the procession of men leaving the Red Keep, all of them northerners. Lord Stark, or the lord Hand now, had to his credit moved ...

Membership Changes

Been thonking about this one for a bit. First thing you'll notice is lower prices everywhere. Also only three tiers instead of four.

Having four different tiers all reading ahead at different breakpoints kinda made a mess with regard to spoi...

Fool's Gold 2

It had been a glorious few weeks since I’d crawled out of a hole into El Dorado.

The city of gold had made great strides in that time, ending a thousand years of isolation. In a few years it might even know something of empire.

Still...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 5)

It was late when we crept back into the inn, maybe past midnight. There were still a handful of others quietly trading conversation around the fireplace, but that was it.

I noticed Delphine had vanished as well when Skadi dragged me inside t...

       Solomon

He refrained from rolling his eyes as the sallow-skinned Prince of Dorne again looked away at the many pools and fountains of the Water Gardens. The man had proven to be just...

February Monthly Prompt Tiebreaker

Seems we have another tie, though only a twosome and not a foursome this time.

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 4)

"Russ," I heard someone whisper softly. Already I was beginning to respond to it as if it was actually my name.

Skadi was giving me a funny smile when I opened an eye blearily. "What?"

"You were mumbling nonsense in your sleep."

       The False Knight

It was dark. Dark and wet.

What was the Greyjoy bitch playing at? He had offered her his sword, a woman, and she rewarded him by binding and gagging him and th...

Valentine's Day Update

A good day to say a few words, I think.

The next two PoVs for ASoBaH will be dropping tomorrow, and after that it will be Solomon's second PoV chapter. Smooth sailing on that front.

I've also been working on A Dreamer in a Dream, with ...

A Dreamer in a Dream (chapter 3)

With Anthony no longer trying to barbecue me, I took a look around at the complete clusterfuck still going on. And we were winning… maybe.

Skadi had cornered the big bad bandit queen, though she also managed to catch an arrow with one of h...

Her Black Wind had not received the warmest of welcomes in Oldtown, but it was not Lannisport where they would have been lucky to walk away only a few heads shorte...
