"Magical girls defeat the final boss and bring peace to the world... it's quite the common scenario in stories. But what happens to the magical girls after that? Do they go back to being normal girls? Or do they continue their heroic activities? These stories don't understand a thing."...

The burst of my heavy stubber bit my hands, not even the callouses on them able to take the rattle of the gun from painful to merely stinging. The stink of hot metal pierced through the haze of powder and smoke, blood and puke, shit and piss, a smell that I never thought would ever...
“Come on honey! We are going to be late!”
You never could fully master the art of tying a necktie. Normally you would have a slip-on one or a clip-on bowtie, but the cat had hidden or destroyed them. “Almost done honey.”

"The Information Age was the pinnacle of Terragen unity. Never before had mindkind been so thoroughly interconnected, and never would it again."
Famous quote from Ponderer of Dufa, c. 1150 AT.

A @hugh_donnetono production, with special thanks to @Shalmoa and @Terrabrand. I once again apologize in advance.
We've all been here before. Strange goings-on in a once-peaceful town. Rumors starting to spread, people actin' sus, strange noises at night, maybe a few dead bodies turning up...
‘Nother explosion rocks you, the neosteel frame of the CMC four hundred, one of the last surviving suits of its type taking the real shockwave from another nuke going off some two klicks that way. Its beautiful orange sunset takes out a mile-deep trench of Zerg and Moebius bastards, but still...

Looking above you, you could see your father’s celestial palace floating in the middle of the clouds - as if staring proudly at the whole realm. You could remember when you, as a child, stared at it with reverence and pride - for that was the place your dear and almighty father had built with...

It is very dark here. All you can see are green specks of light, floating around a void.
You remember intercepting an axe designated for a girl with platinum blonde hair, but other than that, everything's foggy. Your ears are ringing, and you feel a bitter taste in your mouth. As you rub your...
There, another ledge. My hands scrabbled at the edge before I gained a hold, breath steaming and heart racing. The poor thing had been hammering for hours now as I attempted the most dangerous climb in all the world. I had no rope to aid my ascent - far too visible even by moonlight. The best I...
Operation: Knighthunt

You thought you had escaped. You thought you had left it all behind you on that fateful night, years ago. The screaming, the sound of blasters, the struggle and dying of knights and masters. You ran and you left it behind, all to save yourself from the Empire. But...
AN: My first shot at a self insert fic, after disparaging them for most of my life, as you do. Done on a whim, as all my best work is. Dear god what am I getting myself into?

I groaned as I slowly sat up, clutching my head and silently begging whatever had gotten inside...

I stared at the telephone receiver in my hand. My human hand.
“What?” I asked out loud, and started. This was not my voice! I dropped the receiver, letting it dangle on its cord, and backed away. “What???”
My voice sounded vaguely familiar. I had definitely heard it...

Welcome To Anime, Try Avoiding Cliché! TAKE THREE!
You are a random, everyday, average, black-haired dark-eyed protagonist of a generic, no-name Anime....cough, cough, cough! We already did this, didn't we!?
Yet, there's no second attempt without a third attempt! We realized that, perhaps...
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers.
Gnaws iron, bites steel,
Grinds hard stones to meal,
Slays king, ruins town,
and beats tall mountain down.

Good day everyone. This story has been brewing in my mind for months, and I keep going back and forth asking people if it's good or not. I postponed working on it over and over again, mostly due to being losing my nerve every time I look at it. But just a few hours ago I decided that I delayed...
Welcome.
I'm @Humble H Dweller. This will be where I post every random fanfic idea that sticks in my head long enough to become a short story. Got enough of these that I figured I may as well try posting them, for the practice if nothing else.
As you can see in my sig, I've tried longer...
The eye of the camera pans across a vast reach of space lit by starlight, pockets of dust and debris littering our sight as we move the camera along. Here and there a trace bit of rock flits by before vanishing from view. Now, more disturbingly, we see bigger and bigger chunks of rock. Pockets...
Fucking ROBs, man. All I wanted was to continue my endless hunt for levels in video games but nooo, the universe has to shatter and I have to be offered a place to recuperate the wounds to my something or other.

So... this has been something some friends of mine (via the net) have been recommending for me to watch for a while now, and well... finally decided today was the day I might as well will starting watching it (which I will after this post!), anyhow I decided if I'm watching it entirely blind, I...

It was supposed to be raining.
As Taylor watched the coffin slowly rattle into the ground, that was the odd thought that kept swirling around in her head: it was supposed to be raining. It wasn’t supposed to be sunny. Losing your only remaining parent wasn’t a joyous occasion, so it wasn’t...
