Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.11

The Joker knew something was wrong. Something was broken in his already cracked mind. Something… funny.

Normally, his thoughts would have been incomprehensible to anyone else. Cloaked in chaos and insane humor that not even Harley could understand. Now, they almost made sense. A twisted sort of sense, to be sure, but sense nonetheless.

He didn’t even feel the need to hurt anyone! Not for the mere sake of dishing out pain, at least. For the bit? Sure. But not for sadism’s sak...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.10

Harley stared down at Sean with a predatory glint in her eyes and a smile on her lips.

Her eyes lidded and she purred, “Do it, Gothboy~ Make~ my~ day~”

Upon his offer to KILL her infatuation with Mister J, Harley had jumped Sean. She bowled him to the floor — mounting and straddling him like captured prey. Her legs on either side of his body pinned him in place. Her hands on his chest held him down. There was no escape in sight for Sean. Not that he was looking for ...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.9

AN: FYI, this story is set in a DC AU. Arkham Tower is a symptom of that AU. Try not to overthink it too much. I just think it’s a neat concept for Arkham. It won’t affect much outside of putting Arkham in the middle of Gotham and making it a, well, tower. It’s a recent development in the Batman timeline so it doesn’t match some of the other things I’ve already used/the timeline I’ve implied in this story. But I’m not going for strict canon here. I’m also trying for a sort of ...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.8

“This… is exactly what it looks like,” I admitted with a slight pause. No use trying to hide it.

“Ho~? And what exactly~ does it look like?” Bruce Wayne smirked. He was enjoying this…

I glanced at my occupied hands. Batgirl and Black Bat didn’t even react to Bruce’s presence. They just kept melting under my fingers. Either they were even better trained than I assumed or they were already too far gone.

I glanced at Robin. He might as well have been as...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.7

The Dead End was packed. Another night of serving Gotham’s underbelly. But like always, Didi and I were somehow never too busy. Giving me plenty of time to tell my stories. No matter how much a certain Batgirl protested.

“Don’t you dare, Sean…” Batgirl practically growled.

With an unrepentant grin, I pressed on anyway, “So! Who wants to hear another story from Mr. Barkeep?”

“Sure, big man, whatcha got for us tonight?” One of the few henchmen at the bar aske...

Silver-Tongued Company Devil Ch.8

“Bang-…”

My hand was outstretched in front of me, fingers extended in the shape of a gun. Not-so-subtle power flowed through my being.

My heritage awakened. A legacy left to me by my birth mother. One of Control, of manipulation on a purely physical scale. In addition to my Devil abilities, my Silver Tongue spoke, pressing my intent upon reality.

A terrible beast bore down on me, charging even as it roared. It was not alone, ridden by a single woman. She had deathly pa...

Silver-Tongued Company Devil Ch.7

“Nute Gunray! I have come to bargain!”

“What?! How-?! Who are you?! G-Guards! Guards?! S-Seize this intruder!”

It was no use. I strode into the throne room in the palace that the Viceroy of the Trade Federation had illegally usurped. Padme and Diana alone stormed in behind me. Not only was Gunray outnumbered, but by now, all of his Droids were about as useful as scrap metal.

Naboo’s liberation went off without a hitch. With a peacekeeping force of Jedi and a Republ...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.5

Batgirl was glaring at me. Like, really glaring. It was like she was trying to bore a hole in my skull with just her eyes. That expression probably had something to do with the story I’d just told. Batgirl only caught the end of it but that was the most damning part. After all, who would think their unassuming but handsome bartender would be the type to spank the Infinite Dragon God into compliance?

Maybe I should stop telling stories that made the Bat Family question everything they ...

[AN: Hey, y’all, brief announcement. Unfortunately, I think I’m going to have to drop Essence of the Speedrunner for the moment. I might have overestimated my ability to multi-task. Turns out that two stories at once is already pushing it and I can’t in good conscience try for three. Company Devil and Dead End will both be continuing though.

In other news, I want to do PHO-style interludes for this story (Dead End). They’re so much fun to write and I thi...

[AN: What do you call a group of Jedi? A Force. A Force of Jedi.]

“Oh, it’s all so horrible! My people were represented by a hidden Sith for… for too bloody long! Damn him, damn him, damn him!” Padme alternated between pitiful sniffles and fiery rage, between standing up to pace and collapsing back onto the couch to cling to my side.

“Hey, Barkeep,” Kite-Man got my attention. “Why do you have a surfboard here? And why’s it all silver and stuff?”

He was a strange villain but ultimately a good guy. Bit of a joke though. As far as crimes go, he only committed petty burglaries and minorly inconvenienced the Bat Family. Hell, he even started as a minor Bat ally before the Joker found out and poisoned his son with a kite of all things. That may have driven him a touch mad and obsessed with kites but I couldn’t...

Essence of the Speedrunner Ch.2

Zelda was… confused. That was putting it lightly. Even magic, the Sheikah, and her Goddess-granted powers followed some sort of internal rule system. The things Link was doing just… didn’t. Nothing that had happened since he awoke seemed to make sense to her logic-oriented mind.

Still, it was mostly his casual disregard for the laws of reality as she understood them that had her so lost. As she watched her hero fly away from the Great Plateau, seemingly propelled by contradictory ...

AN: Okay, slight change of plans. I was going to try to start a few more ideas before this one but I decided they could wait. This, Dead End, and Company Devil are the three stories I'm going to be focusing on for the foreseeable future. I was going to put it to a poll but I decided I liked these three ideas the most on my own. I think it's a good roster for now and I hope people agree. I want to get this and Dead End up to five chapters like Company Devil first. Chapters are going to...

Gotham's Dead End Bar Ch.2

My time in Gotham didn’t pass quietly but it passed all the same. Uneventful was practically anathema for the city. It had to be something in the water. Or the quite literally cursed Indian burial ground the city was built atop. Or maybe Gotham was just ‘LIKE THAT’. My money was on all three at once.

Very quickly, my bar — the Dead End — became the favorite drinking spot for just about every henchman in the city. Even some of the non-villain gangs got in on it. It tur...

Silver-Tongued Company Devil Ch.5

In the infinite expanse of the multiverse, anything and everything was possible. Coincidences were inevitable, not a matter of if but when. Strokes of impossible luck were practically commonplace in the grander scheme of things. Even just the Star Wars universe had an unfathomable number of versions under Company control. It was only a matter of time before an impossible collection of circumstances turned out something familiar.

I knew all of that and yet I was still surprised to run in...

Tatooine may as well have been one giant sand pit. Sand as far as the eye could see. The heat was dry and the wind was sparse. By the time we’d made it to the nearby settlement, Mos Espa, I was starting to understand Anakin’s ‘sand’ speech.

Even Mos Espa was mostly sand. Sandy streets, sandstone buildings, and sandy people. If not for the Essence enhancing my Charisma and keeping my person clean and attractive, I’m sure I’d be finding sand in uncomfortable places for weeks a...

Silver-Tongued Company Devil Ch.3

Tensions within the ship were high. I was relegated to staying with the Queen and her handmaidens to help keep them calm. If I didn’t already know how this would turn out, I’d have been just as nervous as them.

The ship shook around us. Pelted by Turbolaser fire, there were certainly better situations to be in. The shields wouldn’t hold out for long. Not long enough to see us run the blockade, at the very least.

We’d make it through this. Bruised and battered, but in one p...

Mab wasted no time in fulfilling the terms of our renegotiation. She picked out my Defenses for me, actually. I couldn’t really protest, considering they were being paid for by Favors Owed. And her choices made me confident she knew what she was doing.

Body, Information, and Trace. All three Defenses up to the immunity level. I was a bit surprised Maki-Mom’s Owed Favors paid for the higher-tier Defenses. That was 160 points in total. Certainly nothing to scoff at.<...

My Goddess Brings Apocalypses Ch.4

“What… is this place…?” Shizuka asked, awestruck.

She was in a… tunnel? Everywhere she looked, Shizuka saw colors of impossible hues. From the edge of her vision, things better left unspoken danced outside the tunnel. And in the center of it all, Will the Wizard and an inhumanly beautiful woman stared back at her.

On any other day, Shizuka would have said that what she was seeing with her own two eyes was impossible. But today was already impossible enough. She’d watch...

The door to the faculty room tried to swing open. Will rolled his eyes, dropping his transmutation on the door. It caused issues when Takashi tried to make the group’s exit dramatic and couldn’t manage to open the door. Thankfully, Will didn’t leave Takashi to struggle against magic and Takashi himself moved on from the stumble quickly.

A few zombies lingered nearby. Kota dropped two of them, his makeshift gun going off in near-silent quick succession. Takashi charged out. The oth...
