Next chapter will be out tomorrow. Out of town visiting family this weekend and just haven't had any time to actually get writing done, but I'll have all day tomorrow free, so expect a chapter then. My apologies.

Everyone was exhausted and foul tempered by the time we got out of the meeting. Worst case scenarios had been considered, contingencies drawn up, a dozen different plans proposed, thought through, and then discarded....
Chapter 37
Colin wasn’t expecting much when the tip came up the ladder. A call from a burner phone claiming that there was a parahuman conflict in the Trainyard. It wasn’t really any territory that had been officially claimed, as there w...

We appeared in Taylor’s small backyard with barely a whisper of sound. Taylor was already dressed in her Arachne outfit. “How’s it goin?” I asked cheerfully. I glanced up and down her outfit. Looked like ...
Chapter 35
I was sitting at a pizza place, waiting for Mimi, when my vision went fuzzy as I felt the Grimoire reach out. It had been a while and I had a large store of energy to draw from for this particular bit of...
I'm wanting to do a side project (something that wouldn't update consistently, but give me something to work on in between Grimoire), but since I have so many ideas, I figured I'd see what my readers would be most interested in seeing. This poll w...

Once I’d finished the necessary cosmetic modifications to Mimi, I moved onto the next project: Jack Slash.
I’d preserved his drooling shell for a good reason, rather than give him to Cauldron or the Fa...

Let me tell you something that I can now say I have personal experience with: House arrest sucks. Oh, it was comfortable enough. It was clear right off the bat that...
Chapter 32
Hookwolf’s sudden charge wasn’t necessarily a terrible idea. As a Brute/ Changer, his ideal range was close combat and only a couple of New Wave were any good in that area. Under normal circumstances, he migh...
I forgot to mention that seeing as it's superbowl tomorrow, I have some good friends in town and as such won't be getting a chapter out this weekend. I'll try and make it up to you guys somehow, thank you in advance for your understanding.
2025-02-09 02:17:59 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Goddamn I gotta fix my writing routine/ schedule. Anyway, note first because fair warning, a certain Nazi makes an appearance and a no-no word gets used in reference to persons of African-American heritage. You have been warned.

Despite my knee jerk reaction being to deny the incident as being my fault: This one was entirely on me.
As I might have mentioned, it was a productive night, even if we didn’t run into any ABB. I recei...
Chapter 29
I regarded the mindless husk that had once been the terror of North America. A killer and murderer of hundreds, no, thousands. Reduced to a screaming man, then little more than a weeping child, and final...

“So did you do anything fun yesterday?” Crystal asked me over coffee.
She’d taken me to a different spot than my usual Boardwalk haunt. Which was fair, I h...
Chapter 27
I’d been putting off some rather important tasks for too long. My own fear and self doubt forming a perfect cocktail of indecision. I’d been strong enough for a while now to take the next step, but I wanted e...
I wandered aimlessly through the garden, enjoying the myriad of sights and scents. Everything was so peaceful and relaxing.
“Be on guard, dear child.”
Oh, you.
“Yes, me.”
You’re… yeah. That one person....

I stared silently at Contessa for a moment before walking past her and toward my makeshift liquor cabinet. I didn’t feel like dealing with this situation entirely sober. “Do you want-”
“The bou...
Didn't want to delete the two higher tiers so as to avoid disturbing you two who are on those, but I'm only going to have 1 tier from now on, though I did raise the price as recommended by both this site and most of my friends. Not to worry though...

We flew at a leisurely pace through the night sky, Crystal coaching me on some of the basics of true flight. It was humbling to see how easily she moved through the air, possessing a grace that I couldn’t hope ...

Once the meeting was concluded, I was free to go. Piggot hadn’t just given me Saturday night off like I’d requested, she’d gone ahead and blocked me off for the entire day barring an emergency. I appreciate...

I wrapped Arachne and myself in an illusory veil and then began to hop through the darkness between visible points. It took us barely a minute to get into a good position overlooking the warehouse. Purity was rig...
My ADHD brain is kicking in. I really want to write things other than my Grimoire fic, but at the same time, I don't want to start a new project if people would rather I finish this one first. I'd never abandon a project, just... not do it weekly ...

It had been a minute since I’d gotten some powers from the Grimoire. Well, relative to Canberra, not long, but that had been a case of investing the power into something I’d had waiting for weeks, but actuall...
Following Dean's little information reveal, I did not go storming off to have a talk with Director Piggot or summon my Vestment and start blasting. Give me a little credit, I’m not that hot-headed.
Because after just a mi...

After sending a couple of hasty emails, I met Assault- or rather, Ethan, (it still felt weird using his real name) inside a bar near PRT HQ. Just from some cursory research and looking around the place, it looked...
