As the title says—today’s my birthday!!! Another year older, and hopefully a little wiser.
Honestly, it doesn’t feel all that different from any other day, but I guess that’s pretty normal. Still, I want to take this moment to thank...

The laundromat looked like someone’s abandoned dream, now reclaimed by disuse and the occasional desperate soul. Cracked windows, mold-eaten wallpaper, a mattress in the storeroom, and nothing else. But it had running water, a locking door, a ha...

The sun hadn’t risen yet, but the horizon had already begun to pale. The streets were quiet, muffled in that in-between hour when the city hadn’t quite woken and the night hadn’t fully let go. Taylor stood across the street from her house.

The warehouse was quieter now.
Not silent—there was always noise in the aftermath. A dripping pipe. The distant whine of sirens. The ragged breathing of men too injured to flee. But compared to the chaos from minutes before—the shriek of...

Not a normal villain plan—oh no.
This was art. This was madness. This was a doctoral thesis in terrain violation dressed up as a minefield.

Wind screamed through shattered windows and down crumbling alleyways. Somewhere beyond the skyline, firelight painted the sky in furious reds and molten gold.
Brockton Bay was burning.

The first time Taylor had fought Hookwolf, she’d been desperate—still new to her power, still unsure of what she could do, let alone control the ones she was aware of. Back then, she’d bled. Fled. Survived by inches.

The abandoned trainyard had been empty for years. Rusted tracks curled up from the ground like old bones, and the chain-link fence surrounding the site was more rust than steel, torn open in so many places it barely counted as a boundary.

Brockton Bay never really slept, not even in its quietest hours. Sirens still echoed in the distance. Dogs barked and growled at passers-by, and even the wind whooshed and howled as the chill of the earlier rain bit through the layers she wore.&nb...

Taylor didn’t mean to become an urban legend.
She just wanted to patrol in peace—hoodie up, jeans on, hands jammed in her pockets like she was perpetually disappointed in the entire city. Which, to be fair, she kind of was.
But wor...
