More Than Myth
There's a boy joke here somewhere. Too bad I couldn't insert it in a way that makes sense. Ah, who cares. There are always more opportunities...

Frey had been on edge for a while.
After his mom’s breakdown at the hands of some unknown source, he’d felt doubtful. He wasn’t sure whether he knew his mom as well as he did before. He couldn’t even defeat one-seventh of her power until his dad told him exactly how to beat it. Granted, she’d had the Time Stone, but still. One-seventh of her power. His dad had taken on and defeated four in a row, even if he nearly died doing it.
Now, Frey stood in front of one of the two fo…
A Mother’s Embrace
I had to ride a train for 36+ hours and I got bored. But hey, boredom is a great motivator. I finished two Splatoon 2 campaigns and wrote this story, so... I guess you could say I was productive? Others would say that I wasted 36+ hours of my life but frankly 80/80 in Octo Expansion is super satisfying to me so I don’t really care.
Now that I think of it, maybe I should have worked on the other story that I’ve had in the works instead... Ah, whatever. Here’s a very brief thing that’s definitely not inspired by the last 36+ hours on a train. Brief = less two pages in my word processor = almost none of my stories
Nadia sighed and gazed out the window at the passing terrain. She was on a train, riding the rails to Seattle for a family trip. For wha…
Power Corrupts: Stephany, Aftermath Witness
I'm legitimately scared that my old friend will find this, since... Well... Suffice it to say that I don't ask the real-life inspirations for these characters for their permission to publish. It's just that this one in particular is far more obvious than most of the others.
In any case, I deeply apologize to that old friend for "using" you.

Of all the people Stephany cared for, Aidan wasn’t quite high on the list, even more so after they’d parted ways for high school.
So why didn’t she go through the portal like he had instructed? Well, it certainly wasn’t because she was interested in seeing him. It’s just not every day that you see an old friend in a situation that c…
Power Corrupts: Apocalyptic Poetics
��Summer screws up my writing schedule, okay? I'll make efforts to keep writing but between a bunch of games to play and projects to put off finish, I make no promises.
Also, pardon me if this gets incredibly cliche'd or whatever later on. Things I see/hear probably have a greater effect on my writing than I'd like to admit.

Rotom lived with Aidan and was basically free to do whatever he wanted as long as no one noticed any changes. The only two devices he was allowed to possess were Aidan’s computer and his mechanical body. He had to resist the temptation to enter the washing machine, the toaster, the fan, and tha…
Dei et Viri - Book I: Graecum Est, Non Potest Legi (Part 2)
Aaaaaand here's another one! Only took half a year.
I'm now realizing that my original plan for this series is probably really unrealistic, so it might be changing. Either way, I need to set up exposition somehow, and since Trial By Fire's exposition took two posts, I think the next part will be where the good stuff starts. As for the plan... Well, if the next installment isn't (Part 3), the plan probably changed. Because quite frankly that plan was more ambitious than Caesar, and he got killed.

I follow Chiron to the Big House in silence. I’m sure that we both had things to ponder.
I definitely had a lot on my mind. Apparently, I’m the collective child of e…
