Fallen Máni: Gift

Blasted wolf! You can't even do all you're worth for!

Though Dagr spoke pure venom, this did make Hati's ears drop. Manuel touched the wolf's jaw and raised it.

"Don't listen to him. You don't need a purpose to live, be happy. A-and if you do, you can find it somewhere that doesn't end in tragedy, that doesn't make you his slave."

Hati's tail began to wag once more.

"Then I must gift you, o...

Fallen Máni: Joy

And so in the water human and wolf, god and jötunn were laid before one another.

Jonathan and Silvia screamed, Hjúki and Bil assumed the form of protective birds, Thor raised his hammer, Dagr waited patiently and Sköll grinned.

Only Sif acted accordingly: watching as joy flowed through both of them.

Hati realised he was free from his fate, and Manuel realised that.

And both were filled with a passionate j...

Fallen Máni: Hail

Dagr loomed over Midgard.

Eternal day was accomplished.

The humans, though cowering for now, would soon embrace endless light.

The sun was gone, no other light but his.

Yet, he could sense that the Moon had not died yet.

This frustrated him immensely.

Had the wolves truly failed?

He turned his sight acros...

Fallen Máni: Need

As soon as Hati erupted into Fensalir his jaws opened, aiming desperately to devour the moon and seal his fate.

No sooner he entered that Mjölnir cracked his lower jaw, severing it from the skull.

"No jötunn is welcome" said Thor, "Least of all an enemy of the moon."

But Hati steeled through the pain, and hinged his jaw back on sheer will. On sheer hate.

"You will not deny me my destiny!" he growle...

Fallen Máni: Ice

As above, so below, and in the depths of the underworld, Hel saw light crack the void.

Blasted Dagr, she thought.

She claimed neutrality, as she always did, as she would always do. But maybe such a statement was becoming obsolete, for if the chaos above started to meddle with the underworld, maybe it was time to change course.

She pitied her nephews, attached to a fate now unravelling in ways that ...

Fallen Máni: Harvest

Across the tree, gods were dead.

Each death a hand crushing the human heart.

This was long promised, and in fairness not unusual, but things had escalated weirdly and out of prophecy's stronghold, ever since Dagr put his plan in motion.

Sif simply sighed. She had a job to do.

Where Asgard meets Vanaheimr, in the wetlands of Fensalir, she cut wheat. It was from her own golden hair, and it was made of gold. On Midgard, a thousand seeds of a thousand cro...

Out of Pranks

Jenna was more of a casual prankster. A single day didn't usually matter much to her, so she usually did what her friends least expected: no pranks.

Except this time.

"Jenna, what the hell!?" texted Chase.

"Yeah man, what in the actual fuck!?" texted Carl, "I'm going to reek like tuna for weeks now!"

"What can I say, boys", Jenna shrugged, "Whenever a bucket of chum falls on two proscratinators, an angel gets its wings."

"Fuck you" Chase texted.

"Still, it ...

The sun above gender

To the Greeks male,

To the Aboriginals female,

In practise sexless,

But almost never genderless in human culture.

Let the rising sun

Rise above gender,

Be the spiritual power that

Holds over the left and the right.

I am non-binary,

Just as my star.

My attempt was botched

I'll endure another day

Dying

Well, this is it. I will begin the preparations to end my life. Here is my testament: https://workdrive.zoho.eu/home/8vhk7b60b4821e48343fa86ebf1b77c72d524/privatespace/folders/aplap51f5b4b62e2a490c9a1207411711fc17

My Last Decision

Will I kill the gods?

Or will I tread on?

Will I be free

Will I be myself

In a snowstorm?

Or will the breath go on

Will I be me

Or I will I have been me?

Yes or No?

The wasted potential of Urabrask

<figure></figure>

Barring a few questionable decisions, I largely enjoyed the story of All Will be One and March of the Machine. However, it’s clear that they have wasted Urabrask as a character.

First introduced way back in Scars of Mirrodin, Urbrask and his red-aligned faction offered something remarkable: empathy, due to their unique mana alignment. Later in <...

Caecilians of Lemuria

Where in most landmasses squamates thrive, on Lemuria they are only represented by geckoes (which boast an impressive diversity of 60 known species), two snakes, a monitor lizard and a few oplurids. Many niches are taken by their sphenodont relatives, whose fortunes have favoured them on this island, but the majority of squamate niches are instead taken by caecilians.

Caecilians in Lemuria are represented by two clades: Chikilidae and Ichthyophiidae. Having a presence in mainland Asia �...

Lemurian Languages

There are over fourty recognised languages in Lemuria. For the sake of brevity, we’ll be covering the three main language groups:

Lemurian

This is the oldest language group and currently represented by 20 languages; a number of these are found among isolated populations, but most are derived from Werer, the dominant language of the western Arrokath Empi...

Lemuria: The Sammangal

For the project as a whole: https://lemuriaspeculative.wordpress.com/

***

Perhaps the most unique of the ecosystems of Lemuria, the Sammangal owes its name to its signature tree type (from Werer, *samman “tree” and *gal “feather”). This unique plant is part of the broader Sammangalitales, a clade unique to Lemuria and most closely resembling the extinct Glossopteridales; genetic st...

Happy Birthday Sam!

Canon character birthday.

***

William snuck into the living room.

Sam was busy playing Persona 4. Yet his tail twitched; he knew he was there.

William sat down in the couch and kissed his husband in the cheek.

"What have me away?"

"Cigarettes."

"Damn, just that?"

He kissed Sam's cheek, then bit his nape slightly, making him moan.

"Everyone's waiting in the living room."

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAM!"

Live things can come in,

Live things can come out

But nobody should be a battery,

To reduce your masterpiece.

Dead things can come in,

Dead things can come out

And that's alright, that's alright

Because it's you who shines.

Phyrexia and Black mana

<figure></figure>

As much as this man was an entitled incel, he still believed in a specific philosophy.

Phyrexia in MTG has been tied overtly to Black mana. In old flavor all phyrexians were black aligned (barring a few errata'd ones) and even by the time of New Phyrexia, when Phyrexia had access to all colours, it is still predominantly in Black (though in Scars of Mirrodin ...

"For you, my love."

They had just arrived at shool, TJ from his mother's car and Sydney from the bus. Onlookers snickered, some even used some colorful slurs, but the otter didn't care. He could be tough, but love made him confident.

"Aw, thank you Sydney!"

TJ took out a Valentine's card as well, a paw running through his hair. It was a generic card, paling a bit in comparison to the vermillion, heart s...

Lands of Fire: Completed Game

Please report any bugs and mispellings

And so

And so, at long last, Lands of Fire if complete. I combed and fixed as many mispelling as I could; please notify me of any when the official release comes out in a few hours.

I want my breath

It's cool that you hate me

My tears won't berate yee.

But I'm tired of being silent,

White walls around me.

Every single time I breathe

I lose a part of me,

I work I shed blood on.

If you truly aim to kill me,

You're doing a bang up job.

I'm fire and I'm being put out.

I can't breathe,

I can't express myself.

But that's the thing about fire:

It builds.

And when the volcano erupts,

Your light will be burn...

At last another Polar Night fanfic. This one is from a hypothetical post-Sylvia timeline, assuming the crew they were after died.

Garret Reid checked his phone one final time.

Yes, that was the right café.

He opened the door and scanned the premises. It wasn’t long until he spotted Stefan. The possum still hadn’t noticed the wolf, wiping his brow after what Garret assumed was fatigue af...
