A/N: Hi everyone! Back to slightly late chapter after my slightly early ones. Alas. Also, next week is my obligatory week off (grr, hiss) so no chapters until June. See you then!
"So you can't talk, huh?" Anath asks, her tail flicking back and forth behind her with what I'm pretty sure is excitement. "That's cool. Most people talk too much."
I glance back at her, trying to convey my best impression of 'are you fucking serious?' despite my comp...

A/N: HECK YEAH! EARLY CHAPTER AGAIN! MUAHAHAHA! *Dances happily.*
"Is it just me," I scowl at my assigned therapist, "or am I the only person who has had to see you every day this week?"
And what a week it has been. I wake up every morning as some horrific abomination that nearly gives Christine a panic attack, eat as much as I can get away with, do my best to stay conscious through our lessons about military superpower use, eat ...

"I have to tell Mel about this," Thea decides, and terror crashes through my body. No. No no no. This is my one shot, my one chance. Melpomene can't know.
And perhaps more importantly, she wouldn't want to know.
Thea stands up to exit the room and my hand snaps out and gra...

Despite my objections, I allow myself to be escorted away from our power training class and silently guided back to the building and through the halls until I end up in a medical room. A nurse escorts me to a room almost immediately, taking careful extractions...

Hey everyone! I completely forgot to mention in my prior author's notes, but I'll be going on a trip to see my partner's family and there will consequently be no chapters this week. Relatedly, I also forgot that I'm supposed to be taking scheduled breaks anyway, so I guess this overlaps with that. Uh. Yeah!
The next chapter will be AYEH, hopefully coming out on or before the thirteenth.
OH! Also also. For you MGMH readers, I forgot (hmm I'm starting to see a trend...

I can feel my mind working differently, now that I'm in a fight.
It's not subtle. No part of what I am now is particularly subtle, frankly. I drop onto the concrete and shatter it with my weight alone, the shock against my own frame barely noticeable. I could probably slap a nearby building and shatter the bricks—
The math checks out. Estimated durability based on material structure, likely ...

It's dark. The air around me is hot and wet, muggy beyond just the already-thick Georgia air. It clings to me, pressing with a tangible pressure, stagnant and unmoving. There isn't even the slightest of breezes, not even the barely perceptible movement of indoor air. There are no vents, no openings, no way for the air to get in or out.
No way for me to, either.

A/N: Welcome to chapter three! As you might expect to see in a magical girl story, this chapter features a magical girl transformation sequence! And for some reason, my brain insisted on giving each and every character their own unique song for when they're all powered up, so when you get to the one in this chapter (you'll know when) the song you're looking to play is this one. Oh, and ...

Okay. Alright. This isn't as bad as it could be.

I want to laugh, I want to cry, I want to scream, I want to die. But a weapon can't do any of those things.
I don't understand what happened, how it could have happened, or why it happened. But I understand what I have to do. I am Melpomene's weapon. That fact was etched into me the moment she spoke it into being. It doesn't matter that I don't want to be. It still falls on me now to determine what that means, and how to become it.
Why, why, why, why, why. No. ...

I'm so excited! Note that this chapter does reuse some of the text from pre-rewrite, but most of the chapter is new material so I recommend reading it all. If a chapter is ever mostly pre-...

I managed to get a Bioshifter chapter out last week, but lately the illness has been back with a vengeance and I will probably have to skip yet another AYEH chapter. Apologies, everyone.
You can probably expect AYEH in general to be on hold for a while, because once I write the next chapter of Bioshifter, Bioshifter will be over. Done. Complete. And as previously planned, I will be taking a month off to recuperate, manage extraneous stuff that I tend to let drop by the wayside (li...

A/N: Hello, everyone. I'm still not entirely recovered from that nasty cold I caught, but it turns out being sick is really boring so I wrote this anyway. Content warnings will follow this sentence, so stop reading the author's note if you don't wish to be spoiled. The chapter covers rape and suicidal ideation, but it's a lot milder than previous chapters. It also involves significant abuse and emotional manipulation.

This one is pretty self-explanatory. I caught some kind of head cold thing and I have a bad headache and a sore throat and it's... just really not fun! So yeah, definitely no AYEH chapter this week, sorry. I'll keep you posted on Bioshifter; hopefully this goes away in a day or two, but if not I'll let you all know. Sorry!

Like holy shit I wrote all 7k words of this in one sitting and then I looked out the window, realized the sun had gone down, and then remembered that living things have to eat food. So uh. That's cool, if potentially dangerous. And hey, you all get an early chapter for once! Extra cool! Onto content warnings, then: three, two, one.....

We have the (perhaps expected) suicidal ideation and rape warnings, and I think I'll also just put out a general warning for the fact that this one is pretty fucking intense. I highly recommend you try to enter this chapter in a safe state of mind, whatever that happens to be for you. So with that out of the way, um... enjoy!
