    Selective execution (Busted!)

    2017.06.03 - Selective execution (Busted!) Uh oh! A civilian walks in on your character conducting some secret world-y business. What happens next?

  5. The Unwritten

    NSFW The Unwritten

    2016.10.30 - The unwritten I realized I never posted this here.

  7. 家族 – Kazoku (Family)

    家族 – Kazoku (Family)

    Note: So this is a strange story, in the sense that it literally unfolded in my mind as I was drifting between sleep and wakefulness.

    Ripples (Making history)

    2017.03.18 - Ripples (Making history) Your character somehow ended up making it into the history books! The question is... what for? Something that might be found in the books that new recruits might be forced to read some time in the future. The hospital was quiet at this time of night...
  9. Kuro-Hebi (Level 1)

    Kuro-Hebi (Level 1)

    *Before people go all crazy on this, yes, I took some liberty regarding lore. It's strictly headcanon, as we don't actually know where the Dragon was prior WW2.

    A debt to be repaid (Close call)

    A dept to be repaid August 24th 2015 He was merely lying on his back in a patch of grass, looking up at the sky or what little he could see, between the tall buildings of Kaidan and the strange fog, wrapping the city in a blanket of mystery and death. His breathing was laborious and painful...

    A moth to the flame (Hard Choices)

    Hard Choices Write about a time that your character had to make a hard choice — maybe even one that they regret making to this day. This is something I wrote a year ago but it can't be more relevent. Kuro had to chose between two person... and he made the wrong choice initially. Good thing...

  16. Beginnings

    Beginnings

    Fireflies. They're something magical, mysterious and beautiful. Like some childhood memories, running along in this forest - an old forest, full of power and whispering kami - chasing after the tiny dancing lights. A little boy was dancing alongside them, trying to catch a few with his tiny...
  17. Hansei

    Hansei

    2016.09.05 There is something very intimate when writing to someone else - and I'm not talking about those business memo typed on the computer. A pen or a brush, a sheet of paper, and you open ever so slightly a door to your soul. The same happens when writing to yourself. Only there is no fear...
