“I’ve got just the thing, just the thing!”
The indra woman – Larsa, apparently – hops up and down exuberantly, somehow managing to both halfheartedly wrestle with the larger man and pointing at the door they just came through.
What strange people. Strange, and interesting!...

Sidestepping the incoming ‘monster’, I pivot my shield on its bracer to push the charging wireframe humanoid past me, putting three rounds from my pistol into it – one in the arm, one in the torso, and one lucky shot to the side of its head. It drops in a heap as though a puppet with its st...

“Sweetie… you can’t bring that to school. You know that, right? Suspension would be the least of our concerns.”
“But mom-”
“No buts,” she says, brooking no argument. “Give it here. I’ll put it in the safe with the other weapons.”
I sigh. “Ugh, fine. I don...

“So it seems it didn’t work… or at least partially didn’t work?”
I stretch performatively in my bed, having long since escaped the need to do anything of the sort.

Oh right. I… never really did have muscles or anything like that…
Except that I did.

The rest of the school day flew by, because of course it did. I’ve had plenty on my mind, after all.
Olive, who is apparently my System Assistant now, just sat on my lap and generated heat.
But now that class is over, I’ll have to move her. She complains audibly but doesn’t resi...

Indifference.
I’m at war with indifference. Inside myself, no less.
For years, decades, centuries, I’d dedicated myself to my craft.
And then I made a stupid mistake.
Who would ever think actually becoming a god would obliterate your ex...

sorry that chapter dump took a bit, but here's the next lot! hope you like them!
also, the spinoff continues to progress... the only reason I don't have any chapters up here yet is that I haven't decided on a name yet :3

“It… wasn’t that exciting, to tell the truth,” Eris stumbles.

So that was a bad idea.
Mostly.

Anyway, I didn’t know who to talk to, or. Well....

Hello everybody!
I've been putting this off for some time since I didn't want to accept the reality of it, but now that I'm at work ten hours a day five days a week, I'm finding myself lacking the energy to keep up my writing schedule. I'm unfortunately not 25 anymore and it's show...

I've started a second webnovel, in the same setting as FTR! once I'm at least a number of chapters in and have figured out a title and so forth, I'll start posting it here as well, advance chapters available to Ascendant-tier patrons just like FTR itself.
so now you know, I'm not dead lol ...

The old hallway door in Livvie’s treehouse still works just fine! Or, well. It does now that I recreated it… she had it closed when everything was going wrong.

This is an experience then, isn’t it?
I wasn’t even aware this many creatures of any kind could fit in my courtyard and the surrounding areas, but somehow my wife has managed to fit what must be at least a million of them.

Yeah, so that didn’t go anywhere.
