The good Princess has an argument.
------
He looked much the same as he had last she’d seen him, save the absence of his greatcoat. The warm season was upon them, so Alvenica supposed it was an acceptable breach of etiquette. Without it, the bar of medals pinned to his left breast was visible in the light, and she found herself surprised at the surprising lack of the things. There was only a single row of four, and she found their meaning inscrutable.
"Captain Valiant. It's g...

Alvenica actually has responsibilities.
--------
Bleary-eyed, foggy-memoried, and possessed of a sore and aching skeleton, Alvenica bravely confronted the day. For her, this meant entering the expansive estate kitchen in a thin dressing gown, poorly belted against her waist and one shoulder making an escape down her arm, to be accosted by a team of bright eyed and bushy tailed cooks. They were armed with weapons of a kind, spatulas and knives and succulent fruits, a fiendish energy a...

We learn some about Alvenica's past.
-----
"I go where the Empire wills. No more, no less."
These words stewed in Alvenica's mind, eclipsing anything else uttered at that tragedy of a Convention. Official discussion had collapsed as soon as the Imperial officer was let out of the longhouse, each Mandate choosing to instead revel in the food and drink. Her duties as host were to keep the peace, and she perhaps only nominally succeeded. Few deals had been hammered out, most...

Alvenica must attend her Convention.
-----
The rules of hospitality in Midgardian high society were strict, and this was driven into Princess Alvenica's head as a girl studying politics under her mother; one of the simplest mistakes that could be made was failing to offer a guest their due, and being forever branded rude and unwelcoming. To fail at meeting them for a full Convention would drive away even her most ardent supporters, and hand a most fine knife to her enemies in the court....

I was struck with a fiendish kind of inspiration, and I've produced this. Please, enjoy!

The marriage between woman and machine was addictive. The gentle flutter in the rudder pedals as thrusters worked and spat, the force feedback in each digit of the right hand waldo where clumsy artificial fingers skipped and caught on meteorite impact sites. The gentle whisper of relative altitude sensors, the chirps of low-level radar alerts, and the low heat from the reactor at her ba...

I've been working on some original science fiction lately, and I want to offer it up at a teaser for your all today.
------
Textbooks, internet videos, and just plain normal stargazing had a way of making space seem cool. It was this vast, grandiose place; full of wondrous sights and unimaginable possibilities. 'The final frontier', 'going where no man has ever gone before', all that jazz. Such as it is, space occupied a considerable percentage of the collective human noosphere.

I've teased you all enough, I think. Consider this an early holidays gift, and a thank you for being here with me as I grow in my craft.
I can promise approximately 100% more gayness.

I'm sure you noticed there wasn't an update last week, or this week. This is because I have been cooking.
I've always meant to make the shift to writing original fiction over fanfiction, and I've been making strides to that effect in the past few weeks alongside a good friend. As a teaser, and a way to show you all I am, in fact, still creating, I'll give you a teaser below. This will likely come with some minor changes to tiers and such, but that isn't set in stone currently. Presenti...

This is a rewrite of something I'd previously posted but never continued, on account of disliking the lack of direction I had and how little it does to set up the interaction of the world of Exalted. However, I've spent the past almost a year playing a Sidereal and getting a scary amount of inspiration for this idea.
Allow me to present: Taylor Hebert, Chosen of Endings, receiving some particularly bad news.
