Hello everyone, I will be taking next week off. I would have preferred to give you all a little more heads up, but I made the decision yesterday. Basically, I'm feeling a little burnt out -- I've taken some time off from posting due to work, but it's been a good six months since I've taken a brea...

Annie felt like she was in a dream since she got the call. The Call. The one that completely changed her life. The Call that informed her that she was being welcomed into the Seven. Learning that she had been scouted by Vought had been eye-opening -- they knew about all of her busts and her histo...

"Tragedy," I heard Homelander begin Lamplighter's eulogy, sounding heartbroken. "It's something that heroes stand in the face of. Something that we stand against. We are a shield that serves to protect you from the dangers of the world. As much as we can, at least. It's never enough in the end, b...

"It's poor form to go to the wake of a man that you killed," Robin remarked to me as I struggled to tie a tie around my neck, and it was only a little because our new cat, Black, kept treating it like a toy, idly pawing it as if he knew it was annoying. I glanced at the video I had on my phone, w...

Before we could set sail, we did have a number of things to deal with. Most pressing among them were the various leaders within my army who were less than pleased that their positions were under threat. I had expected as much, and Thorkell prepared me for their anger and fear. However, it was an ...

Jill was in awe of the sheer audacity of it, gazing up at the high table where Siegfried laughed. It was his laughter that prevented a fight from breaking out -- a number of his warriors had bristled at the blatant insult. However, it was difficult for them to take offense when the target of the ...

There was so much to speak of that I genuinely didn't know where to start. Some things were far more pressing than others, but starting there would mean skipping out on context. Which left me starting at the beginning. The very start of the war. Way back when I was fresh off of the farm and follo...

"This is a bad idea. A bad fucking idea, all around," Panam made her opinion known, far and wide as the Aldecaldos gathered up around the fire. They didn't really have much in the way of a chain of command. Saul was the shot-caller, and for better or worse, what he said goes. Below him, however, ...

I hadn't even realized that the encryption to my DNA was something that I had lifted from the orphanage, but now that it was unlocked for me to see… honestly, it was nothing short of a miracle that a couple of tumors in my brain was all that I had. My medical records read like something out of ...

What was happening today was something that had only happened once in Night City's history, Rogue recalled as she leaned into her seat in the back room of the Afterlife. On one side of the room was a long row of the top Fixers in Night City -- Regina Jones, Padre, Wakako, Captain Reyes, Dino Dino...

His child. The words were more shocking than the lightning that had just coursed through him as he thought of the wretched thing that had fallen from Casca's womb the morning after the Eclipse. The misshapen and misbegotten thing that had once been his child- the thing that could have been his ch...

As it would turn out, it was a lot harder investigating the gangsters in Harlem than it was the Russians simply on account of the fact that I was extremely white. So, trying to blend in with a crowd of people… well, I was the one white spot, so I stood out. Which left me investigating the gang ...

"Sebastian. Please don't steal Captain America's shield. Please," Peter instantly began to beg me, looking insanely worried. "He's like… a cultural icon, dude. And his shield is like his entire identity."

"Ohh, swanky," I remarked, looking out at the guy we would be intimidating and/or kidnapping. He was an older guy -- white hair, wrinkles, but money let him age with grace. He lived in a nice high-rise apartment in New York, complete with a balcony with a swimming pool on it. He was dressed in on...
