“Hey. What’s two plus two?” Is it a new Master PC story? “N-no? Why would you ask such a thing?” Because you kept telling me about an idea you had while I was elsewhere trying to finish the Raygun story mere minutes ago. “You’re here now, though.”

I’m always drained by Thursday night. I probably spent the last hour of work just staring at my screen. There could have been ten firetrucks and a fire tornado ripping through the city beside the bus on the ride home, and I probably wouldn’t have noticed it. I was flopped on the couch, staring at the TV, with no comprehension […]

I have read LE stories for a while and have enjoyed many of them immensely. The quality and creativity of the myriad authors is pleasing and a bit intimidating.

It took all his will to stifle the curses following a cry of pain. There wasn’t the time for any of that, a carrier was waiting, […]

There were only a few things Alina hated more than being poor, and now that she was one, there was nothing that was going to stop her from escaping her current situation. Everything her noble house owned had been confiscated, and most other members exiled or worse. So all Alina had left was herself, an elf student at the most […]

When you reach a certain age, there just comes a point where moving back in with your parents becomes embarrassing. Most people Henry knew had done it once or twice, typically in their early twenties. Jobs were hard done find fresh out of college, and without money, you couldn’t pay rent. Many of his friends have been forced to take […]
