Dogfighting, the Morally Acceptable Version
Oddly enough, even before beastkin were known to exist, apparently air combat was called dogfighting. Also, it should be pointed out that dog, well wolf beastkin, are surprisingly the best combat pilots. Even now, generations after the great collapse of the beastkin empire, wolves, or beastkin that most resemble wolves, are prized for their ability to add to space combat.
Why does this matter? What does this mean? Does t...

Desperation and Screaming Trees
Wizard Kyle Goldman (14th Universe)
I will say that I have never felt quite so stupid, until I am told so by not one but four trees. Granted these trees are children of the great world tree, meaning they hold a small portion of knowledge from a being that lasted for t...

Lykan
Rectify
There was so much destruction, so many people were being forced to place their lives in danger and for what? Lykna had just wanted to talk, to see the mind of the king. Yet, the more he stayed here, the more apparent things became. For starters, it was apparent that the King valued his own health and wellbeing over his people.
Lykan’s control over the air had grown so much from this one interaction that he could almost let everything go. In ...

Ajimal The Great
Crumbling
Ajimal awoke to find his body sprawled out in a crater. Dirt filled his lips, and idly he wondered if he passed out drunk again. Though it had been years since he last drank so much that he passed out in an open field. It had been years since he was able to get drunk. Now he found that he had not only passed out but had a splitting headache.
Closing his mouth, he found that his mouth was parched. Again, everything spoke to the fac...

Interlude X
The last few weeks had not been kind to the being known as Dr. Thurston Charleston. He had abandoned his practice, for some reason this hurt more than he had expected it to. He had genuinely enjoyed helping others, granted he had been cheating a bit with his Calming Mind ability, but this was nothing too much. In fact, his use of the ability never seemed to set off the various detection systems set around the office. The ones that were designed to help with ...

Leveling Up
Before I was allowed to leave the briefing room, I was forced to spend my certs to level up. I guess it shows had hard I had been pushing myself recently, that everyone felt I would likely forget to level up, if left to my own devices. Sadly, they weren’t wrong.
I was exceptionally tired. The kind of tired that you don’t realize until you sit down to rest, and then all your muscles tense up and try to lock you in place. Fortunately for me a quick a...

Lykan
Gaining Aspects
Every breath could be felt. If Lykan pushed his senses far enough, he could feel the way every life form fed into his chosen element, the air. He could feel the murderous intent of those first manning the gates. Then by their breathing he could see how each act, caused their conviction to wane a little less.
Until finally he had broken them. Well, not just him, but he and his partner. Lykan also used his increased connectivity to the a...

Each of these Prolaxian Heralds has a niche, a certain field that they cover. Well, all but the puppet master. There was the Endarian Secretary Wild Stag who controlled darkness. They controlled darkness so much that they were able to create a near impenetrable dome of darkness around us while we battled. There was the Beastkin Admiral, I still have a hard time remembering his name, maybe Panda something? Or is that racist to th...

So much had happened, recently. I survived jumping into space without a suit. I kissed an ideal form of Jess, which unlocked my Ultimate Fighting Form. I fought against an end game monster, from a universe of nightmares and managed to survive. Yet, despite all of that, I was still somehow dreading my impending talk with my Jess, more than anything else. Especially as I assume this talk has to deal with my Ultimate kiss, with...

Somehow, I knew the summoning portal that she was dragged through, went to a universe I had never been to. At least I hoped that was the case, as such a monster should never exist. The monster was vast, almost on an unfathomably larg...

High caliber beams of laser energy fire out, only to get magnified with intensity and power, thanks to Jess’ Phantasmal powers over Illusions. The bright rays of the enhanced laser beams illuminating the predawn sky, causing her vision to slightly blur as it tried to get readjusted to the fluctuating levels of light. With those three enhanced bursts, sh...

Is it Wrong to Dream of A Better Version of My Girlfriend?
I had a nap. I know, it was amazing. Everyone makes me run around so much that I often get little personal time for myself. But this time, I managed to get a nap in. Of course, my mind trying to likely make up for lost time gave me an intense dream.
I dreamed of a universe without me. Or maybe what this universe would be like if I didn’t exist at all. Jess had grown strong, far stronger than I could have...

The Earth
Frustration, that was the word and motivation that pushed Brenna onward. He had done it again, left her behind. Then he nearly left her completely. The fact that Lykan was a prodigy was indisputable. Yet, all he did was seem to leave Brenna behind in the dust.
Dust, such an idea. The spot where earth and air meet and form a union. One that most never appreciate, yet it was all Brenna had. Dust, she was small and unsubstantial in the grand s...

Your votes have been tallied and by the narrowest of margins 13th Jess has won.
Next closest vote was the 2 or More. Which if that happened the next closest would have been 13th Rayquel. Meaning a three way relationship with 13th Jess being the primary.

On the bow of the Flagship Khardashian, in an encrypted communications chamber Admiral Lemitov, human commander of the first armada held a three-dimensional communications channel with three hooded and masked individuals. The Admiral also had on his mask, though he knew it would do him little good right now. He had purposefully used his own credentials to obtain access to this deck just for this non-traceable communication.
Once everyone was on, the Admiral began. Whi...

Silence, that unmistakable sound made when you are comfortable being you. At least that is the general purpose for silence, but there are times when people purposefully wield silence like it was a blade. Don’t ask me why this is the case, it seems like a pretty dull blade, get it dull as in boring conversation and terrible blade. Yeah, also jokes are a lot worse when you are the only one who hears them.

The Decision
Kosha stood there, staring intently at Lykan. Well not Lykan, himself, but a clear relative of Lykan’s. Lykan even used his Master Analyze skill on the boy, trying to see if this was a ploy. Some way to get him and Brenna to lower their guards. A way that these Cerusians could gain leverage over the two of them, taking in their Kosha and using her as a hostage. This of course would end badly, and the Cerusians would be a fool to make an enemy...

Hearing that, a lot of alarm bells ring in my mind. “Why?” I find myself asking incredulously.

Thessia Academy Twalo
After our week together, Jess and I bonded. I began to think less and less, that her opinions and feelings for me were constructed or somehow influenced by Celestials. Instead, I slowly felt my own mind relaxing around her. We weren’t what we were, but then again that technically never happened. That or if it did happen, it has all been erased. Now I must start over, which is good.
I know I asked for just such an opportunity numerous times ...

Now, well now, I am still with her, she is cuddled up under my arm, and on top of my wing. Fortunately for me, my wings are resistant to things like lack of circulatio...

The entire process seemed odd, she both knew and simultaneously doubted her enhanced senses. During this trek back, Brenna let her mind wander. She used t...
