Anomaly Ch. 46

Opulent. Ostentatious. Outlandish. When one were to look at the noble’s district, he could think of nothing more than pure, unadulterated hedonism. Where the other districts had squalor at every corner, from the moment they crossed the invisible border between the guard stations and the main ar...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 44

The waiting was the worst part.

Lena exhaled slowly, forcing herself to stay still. She was in position inside a dilapidated building joined by Sombra next to her, while the others were elsewhere. Right now, she had a clear line of sight of almost everyone, including Captain Amari on one of...

Re: Announcement: Delay

This is just to confirm to everyone that the delay I mentioned in the previous announcement is going through. Next week, two chapters will be published to make up for this. Thank you all for your support!

Convenience. If one were to look it up on the internet I sadly no longer have access to, it is likely to give you a definition akin to ‘little effort’. One says that things are convenient when things go their way, and inconvenient when not. For example, a character might say ‘Well, isn’t ...

Altered Emblem Ch. 19

The beast's talons gouged deep furrows into the stone as it pursued Byleth. The Sword of the Creator flashed crimson, severing oozing tendrils of black mud that regrew faster than she could burn them away. Each clash sent tremors up her arms, her muscles screaming as she narrowly twisted beneath ...

It was hard, leaving home. Not the least because Emily was horrified to learn about what had happened. No, it was the fact that Lena would be leaving her alone to deal with her grief, while the pilot would be hunting down their friend.

Their friend.

She felt like she was going in circ...

Something Wicked Ch. 18

It was raining. Hard.

John walked along the pier. He glared as he did so, staring at the man right across from him. Water pelted his suit with reckless abandon, dripping all the way down onto the gun he held in his hand.

“No more guns, John.” Viggo Tarasov spat out, his voice clea...

Anomaly Ch. 45

The exit of the merchant’s district was just as opulent as you would expect, since it also doubled as the entrance to the noble district. Higher walls that none in the rebel army could have scaled, and with a thickness that they couldn’t break through even if they wanted to.

It was clea...

Announcement: Delays

Hello there. As you may have surmised from the title, this is more to inform everyone of a couple of delays that will happen, including the one for today.

The reason for today's delay is that, as I was going to schedule them for later, I realized that what I had written was absolute gibberi...

Disparity. A difference of two sides. Stories that parents would read to their kid (I’m speaking from a lack of experience in this regard) would pit the hero against the villain. Always, the hero would inevitably win. They would struggle, they would come closer than they’d like to failure. 2025-03-23 12:00:10 +0000 UTC View Post

Anomaly Ch. 44

Soon enough, the meeting ended. They had spent over an hour or two more discussing the organization of their forces, their food supplies, everything to do with managing their rebellion. It reminded Shirou of herding cats, really. A lot of problems stemmed from infighting as much as external force...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 42

Lena had barely stepped foot inside the London Overwatch base before she was moving again. Lights hummed, boots echoed against steel, and the distant murmur of voices in hurried discussion barely registered in her ears. Her head was still spinning from the call.

Gérard was alive. Amélie w...

Too much of a good thing can be bad. An old adage that I knew very much about. For example, take modern vaccines - they’re usually created with dead parts of the virus, or bacteria, or whatever else so that our bodies can acclimate to them in small doses. However, include too much of those dead...

Altered Emblem Ch. 18

Byleth thought that Sylvain would be angry. She thought that witnessing his own brother’s death in such a brutal fashion would affect just about anyone. She herself didn’t know how she would react had someone did the same to Jeralt. For all that her face could be expressionless, Jeralt was st...

Something Wicked Ch. 17

John moved at a steady pace, his breath curling in the frigid air, boots crunching against ice and packed snow. The distant howls of wolves echoed through the jagged cliffs, but they kept their distance. Maybe they smelled the blood on him. Maybe they smelled something worse.

The Ebony Blad...

Anomaly Ch. 43

The gun-spear’s end clacked with purpose as Shirou was led further and further into the merchant’s district. At first, the only people that they saw were the Yaga. Women and children that hid themselves as they saw Enforcer. Yaga that were either working with their weapons, or taking a rest. ...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 41

When Lena awoke, she was mildly disappointed to see the familiar ceiling of her and Emily's flat. It had already been a few weeks since their time in Rome, and she would still get the jitters whenever she thought about it. Technically, this was the second time today she had woken up - the first t...

Somehow, Living Life in Another World is Wrong, as I Expected Ch. 8.3

Knowing when to do something and actually doing it are two very different concepts. Not just in the sense of inaction and action, but the knowledge in doing what they’re referring to.

Take for example, the idealist. An idealist can just as easily say that they’ll do one thing, but never...

Anomaly Ch. 42

The ringing clang of steel was startling to hear. Not because Shirou was unaccustomed to such a sound - quite the opposite, in fact. No, what was startling was hearing it come from the impact of Kanshou and a Yaga's teeth.

Telltale impact sparks that should not have come from ...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 40

Lena stirred first. The morning light slipped through the part in the curtains and right into her eyes. She gave a groan of discomfort before attempting to roll onto her side and away from the light. She was stopped as a lump got right in her path.

She let out a small, sleepy laugh when she...

Something Wicked Ch. 16

John’s gaze flicked warily from one floating orb of light to the next. The air crackled with frozen fury, a tangible pressure building, and the chorus of howling wind seemed to take on words of its own.

He flexed his fingers, the weight of the Ebony Blade growing more prominent against hi...

There are few things I can claim to love. MAX Coffee, even if I haven’t managed to drink any since coming to Lugunica. My sister, Komachi. My cat, Kamakura. Above all else (maybe, maybe not above MAX) is sleep.

Sleep as a basic need for all conscious beings has been a constant for surviva...

Altered Emblem Ch. 17

They moved as one.

Her boots sank into the soft mud as she slipped between dripping branches, Sylvain on her right and Ashe just behind. The rain made the world feel narrow and dim, every sound muffled except the heartbeat thud of water against leaves. She could hear Dimitri’s group circl...

Anomaly Ch. 41

It was eerily quiet the first few minutes they left the safety of the barricade. Not entirely unexpected, as the frontlines would have been constantly harassed by the knights had they stayed there. What was completely unexpected was the complete lack of any bodies. He would have tho...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 39

When they arrived at the church, they quickly ushered themselves into their seats. On one side, where a lot of Lena’s extended family had attended. Uncles and aunts, cousins and a lot of people that she hadn’t been as close to over the years, but had still made the time to make it to the wedd...

Once upon a time, there was a boy who thought he could change the world. Be someone worth adoration from the masses. Rich enough to get whatever he wanted. Successful enough that anyone would want to be him.

Once upon a time, I was that boy.

Then I realized that those thoughts were no...

Merry (Late) Christmas

It's a bit late, but I wanted to greet everyone a merry Christmas! I hope you guys had a better Christmas than me (got sick just a couple days before Christmas proper woo), but more than that, I wanted to say thank you to all of you for your support. I don't think I can put into words how much I ...

Anomaly Ch. 40

The first thing that Shirou noticed as he entered the capital proper was that it smelled like shit. Not figuratively, literally. From the way both Tuka and Lelei crinkled their noses, he wasn’t the only one. Where the other settlements that they’d visited were open enough that the smell was f...

Altered Emblem Ch. 16

The rain came without warning.

Thick, cold droplets hammered down from a sky choked with slate-gray clouds. It fell in sheets, slithering through the canopy above and soaking everything below. The forest's once-golden light dimmed, shadows stretching long and sharp. Rain dripped from leaves...

Chronal Disassociation Ch. 38

The early morning light seeped through the curtains in soft, golden ribbons, pooling on the carpet like spilled honey. The faint rustle of the Roman city outside mingled with the distant chirping of birds, but the only noise in the room was the sharp click of a tongue.

“For heaven’s sak...
