Hello there! With that obvious reference out of the way, this idea was inspired by Saphrith's "Fate Denied" SI "writing exercise." Shout out to her for motivating me to make my own spin on the Star Wars SI as well as giving me permission to use her galaxy far, far away. Another shout out to...

Turn Your Eyes Before we begin, I want to take a moment to issue a content warning and general warning. Some of you may recognize me as the dice girl, the mute tentacles girl, or perhaps the vanishing meme girl from that colab fic. For those familiar with my writing, you may have noticed a...

So, in an upcoming story I'm planning on setting up a situation where the main character's mentor figure doesn't die, but is very much no longer welcome. Basically, MC 1 is a transman partway through transitioning, MC 2 is his cis sister. Mentor figure doesn't know about MC 1 being trans, but MC...

Prologue The Southern Temple is, as everyone in the waystation told them, treacherous. The demons were still chained and serving in many floors, and there had been reports of moving golems recently. Even with as much preparation as the waystation could give, venturers still got lost moon after...

So I guess I should preface this with something of a disclaimer: I happen to be, in summary, a cisgendered bi-racial male with mostly non-formalized understandings of writing and critique. And I’m looking for advice for writing about - and ideally, representing successfully to some degree - an...

Edit: So I thought it would be a good idea to share my flaws and ask for help making sure they didn't impact my writing. This turned out to be a dumb idea because the responses I got were basically just telling me to not have flaws, and questioning how much worse I must be if I was willing to...

Seasons of Heroes: A D&D-inspired Adventure! The continent of Vikalean is divided: between cultures, between vastly different people, between the surviving Sepult who had once united the continent in an Empire of steel and blood, and the humans whose world was shaped by its collapse, and...

----- 1.0 ----- 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...

Summary: A young woman gains the power to reshape her environment and has to learn to survive as a hero in Seattle. Credit to John C. McCrae aka Wildbow for creating the parahumans series, a massive inspiration not just in setting but thematically and emotionally. Credit also to my regular...

Did Mr. Gladly hate her? A half-semester group project with Sophia and Madison, and they had to write fifteen pages on Lustrum? “Radical feminist who castrated men” didn’t quite cut it. But as Taylor, Sophia, and Madison investigate, they begin to wonder if Lustrum was really a villain at all…...

(art by @Pericardium) Hatch 1.1 Have you ever got the feeling like you’re missing something big, but you can’t figure out what it is? That little seed of a thought in the back of your mind, that speck of uncertainty you can’t shake? “Clockblocker!” I said proudly, grinning behind my mask. The...

Hello All! Witchcraft is a Young Justice Self Insert, that I got challenged to write as my NaNo project after complaining too much to a friend about the tropes I dislike in the Self Insert genre. Special thanks are due to Obloquy for his help in brainstorming and acting as a beta. He has his...

In these days when we are more aware of Trans issues, is it difficult to write for the gender Bender sub genre? As someone who has interests in this trope/sub genre, I am rather hesitant on writing stories that have anything to do with it. My interest and fascination with transformation...

Three figures meet atop a hill, standing in the wind and the rain and the slowly dying light. Two are hooded and cloaked, the third shrouded in scales like gleaming steel. The first, a man with tired eyes, nods in greeting. “Are you sure of this?” The second figure, a woman with long ears and...

This story was terrible, right? Obviously the char just a spoil girl who never knew what real life was like, right? We don't really care for peoples that try to change their lives after years of a nightmare, do we?

A collaborative New Weird quest by @FBH and @Exhack. ---- “Hey, Leigna! I thought I’d missed you.” The monorail snakes over the deep chasm of Kybal City’s Lower Eastron, residential towers rising up on all sides, gleaming white concrete and gleaming window glass rising to tall spires...

Take up the Black Man's burden--- Ye cannot stoop to less. Will not your fraud of "freedom" Still cloak your greediness? But, by the gods ye worship, And by the deeds ye do, These silent, sullen peoples Shall weigh your gods and you. Take up the Black Man's burden--- Until the tail is told...

I stumbled upon this movie while on an international flight to Japan and watched it all the way through. It was a very good film that, while apparently criticized for being a bit dramatic, explores the life of LGBT people in Japan. I figured since our userbase has a notable amount of active...

This story is set in this same universe of my own making, but the background is not required to enjoy or understand the story. The Story of a Girl: 2091 by Lynn Davis Frosted wind howled savagely and beat against the thick plexiglass shell covering a lonely maglev train station. Inside...
