2023-10-09 14:59:27 +0000 UTC View PostShould probably start this one off with a disclaimer -- A Hard Knock Life is not back. I’ve been playing Phantom Liberty and I’ve been on bit of a Worm kick, so I got the itch to write up another chapter. I figured it was worth posting to see if there’s any interest in a return to t...
2023-10-08 15:00:52 +0000 UTC View PostNo. No. No, no, nonononono. No. No fucking way. This shit is precisely why I had time travel so shit like this didn't need to happen. So it wouldn't happen. I just had to wind back the clock and snip this shit right in the bud.

2023-10-07 14:54:54 +0000 UTC View PostI am so annoyed with myself. I am so goddamn annoyed with myself. If I could punch myself in the mouth, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I almost wished for a Future Me to show up and put me down like an animal because I clearly deserved it. I had slipped up. I got over confident. I looked down...
2023-10-07 14:54:50 +0000 UTC View PostIt had been a while since I've committed a murder, but even if my skills had gotten a little rusty, I had the basic principles of a good murder down pat. A lot like being a real estate agent, it really came down to two things -- location, and opportunity. Setting up both took a bit of work when i...
2023-10-07 14:54:47 +0000 UTC View PostEverything was on fire. Well, not literally, though that could quickly change in a couple of minutes as Cinder perched on a building, overlooking Times Square. The military was rolling in with everything short of tanks, and they had instituted a curfew. In all honesty, they should have been calli...

Oh…" Homelander whispered, his breath stuck behind a lump in his throat as he gazed down at the brain matter and blood on his gloved hand, the office blissfully silent. A bit of hair and flesh that was attached to a shard of skull fell from his fingers with an audible plop. He swallowed th...
2023-10-06 14:58:25 +0000 UTC View PostI could feel it. I could feel it deep in my bones that we were on the cusp of greatness. Slowly, I had been building and building to push things to a boiling point. Much like a pot left on a stove, the water was heating up and the lid that was clamping down was about to pop off from the pressure ...
2023-10-06 14:58:20 +0000 UTC View PostA song in the heart. I never really thought too much on the phrase, but in light of recent events, I couldn't help but understand it now, because I found myself humming a tune as I left Vought Headquarters. I couldn't quite explain it, but the colors were brighter, the smells were more pleasant, ...
2023-10-06 14:58:12 +0000 UTC View PostIt was a mistake. I knew that much after the first punch. I had let my temper get the better of me. I wasn't quite certain who he was, but I did understand that he was related to Chares in some way, thus making him someone of importance. The only silver lining was that he wasn't nobility, but at ...

2023-10-04 15:03:18 +0000 UTC View PostLearning how to read was a frustrating endeavor, and not only because Greek was very different from both Latin and Norse. It was frustrating because I was surrounded on all sides by scrolls and texts that I either couldn't read or I had to pretend that I couldn't since I wanted the fact that I co...
2023-10-04 15:03:13 +0000 UTC View PostThe halls of the university were impressive, yet not overwhelming like the palace had been.
