TLDR: Discount code to read 4.01-03 early; Arc 4 begins Nov 16, maybe 23; smutty side story this week.

Hi public readers! 4.01 to 4.03 will release for patrons before 4.01 goes public, so if you want your fix of Sunspot a few weeks early, it's only $5!
The public NSFW side story is still coming! It might go up this week or next.

Yuuka took me to the rooftop.
It was a cold, clear afternoon in Tokyo, the kind I’d become somewhat used to by now, those pale-blue winter days that made the cityscape feel as though it were simultaneously looming straight over me as well ...

“Thank you for saving my life.”
Takagiri’s expression of gratitude was difficult to face directly. She bowed to a perfect ninety-degree angle, arms against her sides, black ponytail hanging over her shoulder, delivering the words with ...

The fifth and last of the main Radiances in this series! Main version, eyepatch, and alt with her eye at full power.
Don't worry, we'll also be doing Ebi and Ezzen. Maybe Takagiri too. Also maybe redoing Hina's since I feel we can do better ...

None of the prosthesis prototypes were ideal. That wasn’t really the fault of the students who had made them; it was legitimately hard to come up with useful features to cram into the space of the front half of a person’s foot, and they’d pu...

Another poster by Mjeow! Her mech is not normally anywhere near this big but she's taken some liberties for the photoshoot.

Unlike what I’d seen of Ai’s premier magitech—Amane’s bionics and Ebi’s chassis—the coffin was not a pretty thing: a mess of plywood, sheet metal, 3D-printed parts, and exposed wiring. It did resemble a coffin in shape and size, large ...
