Hey everyone!
Just a quick announcement regarding Humans Don't Hibernate for this week! I'm afraid that the irl workload from last week kind of ballooned into the earlier half of this week, which means that I'm going to be unable to post Humans Don't Hibernate this week.
However, Wearing Power Armor to a Magic School is still on track to being completed so expect it to come out this Sunday as usual! :D
Once again I sincerely do apologi...

Hey everyone!
I have an announcement to make.
I’ll try my best to keep this brief as I don’t want to take too much of your time! Basically, as a result of conflicting shifts at work, dealing with my grandmother’s health, and a few family situations I have to tend to, I’m going to be unable to sufficiently have the time and space I usually need to proofread, edit, and write the new chapters. This means that I will be unable to post next week’s chapte...

It shouldn’t have surprised me that our first major interaction in town had resulted in a standoff.
Though what did pleasantly surprise me was that unlike most of my confrontations up to this point, the point of contention between us didn’t involve a ti...

Hey everyone! There’s been a few revisions and quite a few additions this time around! Upon rereading the chapter, I felt like it needed a bit of rewording and additions when it came to the town scenes, as it didn’t really live up to the vibe I wanted for the town. I wanted it to hit a bit harder, with more details in order to really set up the scene for this first real look of the town up close! I wanted to add more vibrancy, and for the surroundings to feel a bit more dynamic, s...

Hey everyone! There’s been a few revisions this time around! Most of the revisions were made in order to improve the overall flow of the chapter, with a few spots here and there reworded, and a few chunky paragraphs broken into smaller paragraphs in order to help with the reading experience! The last section in particular had a few more additions and revisions done to better set up the scene and to make it feel a bit less choppy! Grammar has also been corrected here and there as usu...

“What would you like to know specifically, Evina?” Addie responded earnestly, which despite being aggravating, was completely fair for it to ask.
My question was, quite honestly, vague.
But then again, it was a big question that needed answering.

Hey everyone! There’s been a few revisions this time around! Most notable of which is the paragraph near the end of the chapter where Emma confronts Ilunor about the necessity for diplomatic tact between Earth and the Nexus due to everything that’s been revealed in the chapter up to that point! :D The rest of the revisions have been simply to improve the flow of the paragraphs by rephrasing a few lines, replacing a few words, and such! Grammar has also been corrected here and ther...

Hello Commissioned Pioneers!
I hope everyone’s month has gone well!
This month has been quite exciting as we’re setting up for the town trip, and as more worldbuilding reveals are being dropped on both parties with regards to Earth, and the Nexus’ relative parity when it comes to their resource potential! Emma’s library quest with Ilunor is also progressing, and we’ll be keeping an eye on that as things progresses!

Hello Commissioned Pioneers! :D As promised as always, in accordance with the results of last month's poll, I present to you the Bonus Story of the Month! There were a total of four choices once again, with a majority voting for Wearing Power Armor to a Magic School Side Story 19.
We’re back in the Nexus with this one! And in a similar turn of events to Professor Articord’s class, I decided that since we just recently had Professor Chiska’s PE c...

“Does this mean these interlopers could already be on their way here, Lysara?” Those words echoed through the already-tense air like a Lana fish wading through spring ice.
However, instead of a moment of dramatic silence or an appropriately intense response, the alien simply replied in his signature manner-of-fact tone of voice.
“There is little doubt that an interloper, or at the very least, an agent of the interlopers’ domi...
