Hey guys, spent most of today at the airport waiting for a flight that kept being shifted. While that’s not your concern and you signed up for daily updates, do bear with me. I’ll make double updates tomorrow to keep things on track.
I feel so mentally exhausted that if I start writing now I might kill off a dozen or so characters just because. 😭😭
Have a lovely day guys

“The Lyriakos family” Sirius hummed as though he could recognise the name, and I shot him a look laced with
“And for the benefit of Harry here who is not as worldly and well-informed as one such as I, could you tell us about the family? Well, you’d be explaining it to Harry of course. I already know.” He said with a wink that made me chuckle. Callista did much the same before humoring the clearly lying man and turning to me.
“The Lyriakos family has existed from long...

I took a deep breath and turned around to return to my quarters. I still had some meditations to do ahead of the comet. Strangely enough, the closer the comet got, the. More I could feel it just at the edge of my awareness. Already, my flames seemed to burn just a bit hotter whiteout even trying. That was the purpose of my second meditation. Trying to air condition a room was just a bit of housekeeping and some procrastination from the more important question in front of me.

She sighed in irritation and almost against her will, her Sussano’o forced itself into being. Her mangekyou ability had been activated at the moment right before he struck so she hadn’t felt any pain from the attack as it had failed to do any damage, but she was still irritated at being caught out like that. He tried to jump away from the ribcage forming around her but one of her hands, bony and spectral moved to catch him in midair. She squeezed mentally and took great pleasure at watchi...

“I don’t like it” I said when Sirius turned to me to get my opinion and I could see the way the Greek witch showing us around flared up. The Manor, for what else could something this massive be, was beautiful and artistically designed but the problems weren’t limited to the fact that it was soulless. No. It was even worse than that. It was boring. It was also far too much space for two men who didn’t have a house elf. Cleaning charms were handy, but keeping something like ...

XXXXXX— NATSU
Riding in a blimp was nothing like what it would have been in the world I came from. Yes, I was excited to see the vehicles, the cosmetic backgrounds for my favourite fight scene in the whole show. But riding in them quickly became a whole different experience. We hadn’t figured out air conditioning in this world and while that was quickly running up my list of proioirites for our clearly ingenious research and development unit, it wouldn’t happen in time to save me...

He charged through her hosenka no jutsu and tore through the tree she’d left her water clone standing on. Water clones were useful for their low chakra cost and their ability to use some basic ninjutsu with enough skill. Sure, she had over twice as much chakra as she used to but that was no reason to grow sloppy. Just like Sakumo-sensei always taught them— efficiency, efficiency, efficiency.
Her trap snapped shit with a snap. He jumped into the field and two of clones completed the...

One more day until I had to go back to Hogwarts, and I had to admit it, the holiday had grown on me. Especially when Sirius had gotten bored of resting and allaying about and decided to help me with my training and figuring out the benefits of the ritual I’d undergone with the end of the previous year. He might have opposed some of my testing ideas, but we’d managed to narrow down the seven benefits I’d gotten. I felt the first one as my muscles strained to perform the hundredth pull-up...

TOJI- xx
Was that a slight baby bump he saw beneath the swell of her robes, he wondered with a light smile as he accepted Zhufu’s hug.
“I was worried once Natsu told me” She said, and he nodded against her shoulder. Good. So he had been to see her. Toji had the feeling he had from the way his shoulders seemed freer and he had less weight on his shoulders, but it was good to have his hunches confirmed. He did so enjoy being right. Not as much as he enjoyed being able to stan...

The seal was nothing special. I almost scoffed on seeing it in full after I cut through Han’s armour with my chakra scalpel jutsu. It did the bare minimum— kept the Gobi in and let him access its chakra. A shocking amount of the rest was only possible because of both Han’s own willpower and focus, and Kokuo’s relative docility. This seal would have done nothing to hold someone like Kurama. He’d have torn through it like paper and. Ripped the poor fool they tried sealing him in for t...

One person had waited for her to strike first, and the other had struck before she could. I could pick either option, so I did what came naturally to me and I took a stance, a deep breath and waited. The timer counted up, taking account of the time we spent staring at each other.
“You’re Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived, right? They say you’re a big deal” She said.

‘Too slow’, she thought with a sigh as she bent backwards at her waist to avoid the arcing slash of the blade. The gunbai she bore in her right hand lashed out with ears of experience from both attacking and defending against it thanks to her two lifetimes and removed the man’s had with a negligent flick. The Kumo shinobi were unimpressive to say the least. The letter from her elder brother who warned her to never let the village learn of her mangekyou meant that she was not going all o...

He was a one-trick pony, but it was a damn good trick. I tracked the arc f explosive for as it came towards me and darted to the side. It hit the ground, exploded and pushed me forward. I called my flames into being, green as the trees around the estate I’d grown up in, and forced them to form a circular shield in front of me. The next explosion clashed against the shield and the shield held.
“And our Fire Lord has finally called upon his flames” The announcer called. I smiled. T...

His whole body hurt. That was the first thing he noticed the second he woke up. He felt his ribs ache with each breath he took. There was a tightness in his throat as well. The explosion must have hit him hard he realised. Especially because he could feel a bed beneath him. How long had he been out for. It hurt to open his eyes but he did so either way. When he did, he was met with the sight of a woman. She was in her late twenties or early thirties, he reckoned. And she was definit...

“Finally” Sirius jumped up with a whoop, rising from his position on the beach chair he’d been sunbathing on. I turned to look at him, lifting my head from Alekhine’s Principles of Elemental Conjuration for the first time in hours and noted he was holding a copy of the Daily Prophet.
“What?” I asked, not even bothering to hide my irritation. He’d dragged me out for this and still wasn’t letting me focus— that was a very good part.

It was familiar, at least, that expanse of white space where we were faced with Kokuo and his Jinchuriki. Han looked confused, looking about himself, Now that we weren’t in the middle of combat, I could notice things about him. For one, he was older than me but not by much. He was around Tsunade’s age at the very oldest, and probably a bit younger for truth. His armour gave him additional heft, and covered most of his body from view, but his eyes were bright and expressive.

“Won’t matter to me” I said confidently. I had full faith in my talent, experience and training routine. And if all that wasn’t enough, I had the ace in a hole that was a fucking time turner. If I wasn’t already going to be abusing the hell out of it, then I surely would right now. What really drove that point home was the fact that I wasn’t good enough to conclusively beat a single Hitwitch while Voldemort had beaten eight of them without breaking a sweat. He hadn’t just beaten...

The men listened and began turning the Ostrich-horses around to make their way down a different route. Toji still felt thatugly feeling in his chest that something was wrong. He kept a careful eye out for anything suspicious but essentially everything remained as it should be. Barrels of various sizes lined the streets— he noticed a faint smell but struggled to place it and kept moving. People walked across the streets, moving from place to place and then stopping to bow when Natsu passed. ...

I was right. Version Two hurt like a motherfucker. It was like the my skin was being burned off and regenerating at the same time over and over again. I could see why this was the state where Jinchuriki tended to get taken over. I didn’t have that problem with Kurama helping me centre myself and focus on the fight around. Han came at me aggressively once again, and this time it was almost child’s play to dodge his wild ship and plant two nasty crosses to his midsection. He stumbled and I ...

‘If I wanted to assassinate the Fire Lord, then the Agni Kais would be the best place to do it’, he thought to himself as they rode through the city. The second best place would be right here and now. They recognised this risk of course. That was why Natsu’s objections had been ignored and he was made to ride in a closed and covered carriage initially. Of course, it was made with the finest cedar and gilded with gold to display the status of the Fire Lord. And now that...

“We’re the best of the best. We make local aurors look like amateurs. We blow them out of the water, because we have to. We hunt dark wizards and wannabe dark lords across the planet” She said, sounding smug.

He fell backwards for a second before returning and trying to bash his head into mine. One of my tails swept up and slapped him in the face, sending him flying further into the forest. I followed at an almost leisurely pace.
“I’ve missed this” Kurama roared in my head, delighting showing his sibling who the better was.
When Han came out, this time he had transitioned into the Version Two cloak. Four tails were behind him, and there was a bony structure on each tail. His bo...

“Oh they said you were good, Harry. But I didn’t know how good” Jones said with a chuckle as she froze in place, about to send another spell at me.
“Thank you” I said with a hesitant smile, taken aback. She was good. Very good. Not as good as Flitwick, but definitely better than Sirius had been when we’d first started duelling. He was more familiar with my tricks though, so he could have found ways around what I’d done here.

“Will you manage to entertain me, I wonder?” She mused with a sigh, and then jumped backwards as he moved faster than anyone she had ever seen to crash into where she had been standing. As she jumped backwards, their eyes met and she snared him in a genjutsu to make him think she was two metres to the left from where she actually was. She felt it break in a second, with no effect. How annoying, She thought as she dropped a set of shuriken from her sleeves into her fingers.

I moulded the flames into a lance and sent it flying at the hulk of a man. He moved, dodging the attack and sent another one coming my way. I backflipped away from this arc of concussive force, and against my will, a smile formed on my face\>. My flames responded to my desire and flared around me. I formed two whips in each of my hands by curling my fists like I was holding something in them. He sent another blast, and this one, I slapped aside with a whip of green fire. It smashed against...

She started by banishing them, sending them only a few feet backwards which was made useless as I banished them right back at her. She twirled her wand and created a whip of bright blue flames.

Off in the distance, she could see Sensei and the Hokage fighting the Raikage. Well, fighting was an overstatement. They were retreating and leading him on a running chase. The man wasn’t very bright, she thought to himself. That was often the case for those with more power than sense— a sort of shortsightedness that they were blind to. Even Shori, for all his smarts was a victim to it more often than not. He couldn’t see why their victories in Kawa no Kuni were never celebrated. They h...
