See No Evil: Beginning of the End (ch. 85)

"What did you do with the Warworld?" I heard a low voice growl in the dead of night, emerging from the shadows of my office the moment I entered it . Bruce Wayne stepped out of the shadows rather than Batman, but based on the look of him, I would say that they were one and the same at the moment. His brow was furrowed into a deep scowl as he regarded me, searching my face for any signs of the lies that he expected to come.

I didn't miss a beat as I closed the door to my office behind me...

See No Evil: Sweeping Up (ch. 84)

"Of all the things you could have shared with the Reach, it had to be how to blind me," I muttered bitterly to myself as I stood at the top of Sainthood Enterprises HQ, a building that towered over all of Gotham. Worse, I wasn't sure when it happened. I just knew that it had. After my arrest, Lex had a sharp influx of time not being recorded on my cameras. That told me that he had known about them beforehand and was keeping up appearances. Savage was always difficult to pin down, so I hadn't ...

Gone Native: Diplomacy (ch. 41)

The duties of a Princess of Themyscira had never truly bothered Diana. While she couldn't claim that she had ever enjoyed the long winded speeches, or the tedious negotiations where great ideas were bargained down to good because of self interest, Diana also knew that she was good at navigating those waters. Not to mention, there was a special kind of thrill at soundly defeating someone with words rather than her fist.

In Man's World, Daina knew her position came with a great many expec...

Gone Native: Fishing Trip (ch. 40)

"We can't just ignore the neighbors," a hologram of Ada'la spoke, wearing an elaborate gown that I think had been styled after a human queen on Earth. "The war is over. While you are the one that is credited for the defeat of the Federation, we are no longer a part of the Trade Organization. With domestic issues solved, I believe it is time that we turn to matters of diplomacy." She continued, walls of information appearing around me as I was battered by wind. I doubt I would be able to hear ...

Gone Native: New Day, New Problems (ch. 39)

"Raven!" I heard as soon as the light faded from my eyes and there was a blur of motion that slammed into Raven, who had seemed to be hiding behind me. Kori embraced Raven, squeezing her so tightly that I'm pretty sure I could hear the creaking of her bones. "You have returned! I believed that you would," Kori said, holding Raven tightly and I could see the expressions warring on Raven's face.

Her grayish skin tone had returned, and she only had two eyes once again, but it was evident t...

Gone Native: Empathy (ch. 38)

"What happened?" I questioned, my lips thinning as I arrived at Titan's Tower and instantly took notice of the burn marks on Broly's body. He looked like he had yet to notice them, meaning that he was full of adrenaline. Meaning that he had come up against something that had managed to challenge him. That he was injured at all made the fact that Elery and her team were relatively unharmed information of little comfort. The Titans seemed unhappy with Robin going to pick up a flower left in the...

See No Evil: At Last (ch. 86)

"Wow, I knew the rules got fast and loose when you were a one percenter, but this is actually pretty crazy," Revy remarked, eyeing me up and down. "You're seriously going to get away with it. All of it. Completely. You might even get an apology for the false accusations," she continued, giving a small shake of her head, seemingly thoroughly impressed. Tifa's lips thinned at that, just a little. She played her part in me getting off scot-free, but she didn't like being reminded about the huge ...

See No Evil: Perjury (ch. 83)

The world lost its collective shit. It lost its absolute mind -- from people screaming in bars as they watched the case like it was a football game, to people's homes, to break rooms or cubicles at work. The ones behind this little show were just as bad -- politicians were panicking, demanding to know if I was just making shit up. The few in the know, either because they worked with the Light or they had been told by the Justice League were demanding that I shut the hell up.

The moment ...

Gone Native: Child of Azarath (ch. 37)

By all accounts, Raven knew that she should be in horrible agony. She could feel the corruptive spread of chaotic energy spreading through her like a disease that infected every cell that it touched. Her own magic recoiled at the touch of chaos, a fundamental force of the universe, and if she didn't force her magic to contain the spread, Raven knew that she would die from it. The sound of rushing air filled her ears as she plummeted from the sky. She could distantly hear Robin shouting her na...

Reminder -- no updates between the 1-8th

Just posting a reminder in case anyone had missed it or forgotten, but there will be no updates between the 1st-8th for any of my stories. Fool's World will also be taking a brief break and will be back on the 20th as I always do when I reach the end of a story or a jump. 

Fool's World: War and Peace (ch. 27)

"I think you're wrong about Aang," Katara informed me as I leaned over a few maps. They seemed a bit dated, but the terrain was unlikely to have changed that much. I had a map of the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation that marked villages and cities. Drawn on them were notes about Fire Nation activities -- patrols, garrisons, and forts. They were good maps. The kind that you would want during a war. It was just a question of how old the information was.

"I'm not," I responded, checking a...

Fool's World: Weight of the World (ch. 26)

"I'm worried about him," Nobara admitted to Rin after the feast, in the privacy of what amounted to a guest bedroom in some kind of compound. Nobara felt full to the point of bursting -- she never needed a diet on account of how active a lifestyle being a Jujutsu Sorcerer was, but she felt the need to do some crunches. She was just too stuffed to actually do them. Majima was an insanely good cook. When there was a plate of his food in front of you, you just had to finish it.

A really da...

Fool's World: Brave New World (ch. 25)

“Welp, that didn’t fucking work,” I muttered, looking up at the bright blue sky and still feeling every horrible thing that people were doing or thinking to each other. The clouds idly drifted across the sky, moving at a sluggish pace. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath of fresh air -- my past selfs’ screams a fading echo in my ears and were replaced by sounds of nature. I focused on the sensations that were washing over me, sensations that were far stronger than they had been...

What story should replace See No Evil when it ends?

Hello everyone! As most of you have heard, See No Evil has entered its final arc and it should be wrapping up in the coming months. I actually have a commission story that’s taking its place, but I’m looking to post another story alongside it. Which is the purpose of the poll -- basically, I have three story ideas that have the makings for a full-fledged +100k story and I was hoping to get some feedback on what you all would like to see.

I’ll include a brief synopsis of each story...

Legends Never Die: Chapter 1

“Pot licking, foul-assed, bitch,” I cursed, getting Havi into a chokehold. He was my least eldest brother, though still three years older than me. We didn’t share a mother, but no one really cared about that. In response, Tormond, one of my other older brothers at fifteen, got me in a chokehold of his own with a laugh. I should have never taught him how to do a proper one, because he put me in a good one. Havi flailed in my grip as I refused to let go, while our third brother, Halfdan, ...

All Because I'm Evil~: Chapter 1

"Oh please, please -- it won't happen again, just give me another chance and it won't ever happen again!" No one really knew how they would face death until the very end. Everyone had an idea -- maybe going out as a steeled-eyed badass, with a faint graceful smile. Maybe even laughter as they greeted death like an old friend. But, no one ever thought they would beg, even if it meant extending their lives just a few seconds longer. They never thought that they'd break down into tears and start...

Domain Expansion: Waifu Battle Royale: Chapter 1

Waking up naked wasn’t an unusual occurrence for me. I usually slept in the buff. No real reason why -- just more comfortable that way, even if it did mean I would be facing a burglar in the nude. I imagine that would be as much of a nightmare for me as the burglar, though. So, waking up naked was a pretty common state of affairs for me.

Waking up naked on a stone slab while surrounded by other people? Not so much.

“Rise, o’ Lord! Rise Sukuna Ryomen, King of Curses, to lay w...

See No Evil: Nothing but the Truth (ch. 82)

"I'll start with a softball for you, Vergil. Have you ever knowingly and willfully committed fraud?" Mercy began her questions, her voice clear and concise, the cameras firmly on us as the world awaited my answer. It was poor form for an actor, but I looked directly into the camera lens. As a favor for the Daily Planet.

"Oh, absolutely," I answered, and people actually sounded shocked by that. Wasn't sure why. I wore that sin on my sleeve every time I stepped out. "All the time, really....

Gone Native: Home Sweet Home (ch. 36)

Thoughts of her home were always kept in a deep dark corner in her mind, forced back into the far recesses of her mind with all the other things that she wasn't ready to face. Raven had put them there herself. It wasn't that she forgot what had happened, but she put a great many hoops that she had to jump through to actually think about it. The memories were too painful and too heavy with emotion. Even pondering the fate of Azarath and her role in its destruction was enough to completely dest...
