When Frekki turned back and gave that final grin, that last face even the broken memory of Arthur could remember from the many men that died soon after, he found himself moved. The combat drugs found their hold in his spine, in his legs, Arthur's chest twisted and before he could even unravel...

"Councilman." A growing list of things to manage. Planet Guard and Black Wall bricks sent reports of skirmishes and passing encounters across the eastern border of the Collective. "Councilman, I have information for you." The first time they had to deal with Senti fighting back. Starting...

Katamura, Councilmen and other story-telling elements by Big Dicc Marty Rustybe by A_Bibor_Farkas Silently, as if scheduled, millions of years and dominance is challenged. The missing flotilla, one that had not responded to any calls for months, quietly dropped in a tiny...

For Justice, that was all that he wrote. All he attempted. The crumble of thin stretched flesh now draped over him shattered any of the strained concentration he had left. The deep fatal thrum in his head kept the ground too liquid for him to build any more foundations. He simply wrapped his...

Justice could not imagine the feeling of his face peeled away into petals and tongues, he could not imagine the snaking lengths of prehensile muscle tasting the raw air. No, that was out of reach for him. What he could see, as his brain worked a thousand times faster than he could ever have...

Arthur's world was stuck in sludge. He looked about him, to the ask of his position, to the constant staccato of caliburn fire and drone of screaming men. "Barna, Sergeant Major, this is..." He forgot break, but needed the time to look down at the name on the tags. "...This is Wellington. Headed...

Justice took a deep breath. Going down wasn't necessarily his idea and he started to resent the hell of fungus and that still ticking ache from inhaling spores earlier. It doesn't matter in reality, his baseline protects him, but Justice hated the invasive feeling. He'll have to petition for a...

"You are alone. You are bloodied, my bearer." "I offer you a resolve/patience/violence." "Goddess? Are you the wish-weaver?" "My ore, you will not remember me though you may bear me. Now is a place of forgotten expense and deals. Do you heed?" "I heed." "I know what you seek, bearer. You...

3 of 10. Next stop: The Blitz Cabana. Maps and local guides have all talked about this door to a bar to other worlds. Gailla strode through the club door with swagger she did not earn. Not here anyways, her only merit was the sack of gold nuggets belted secure around her hip she had tried to use...

Arthur stuck out like a sore thumb. Between hardly knowing his name and only really knowing how foreign it is, his standing still with his holotags and pistol in hand made him was an obvious chance for any officer to beam him with orders were there any. His radio constantly barked various...

Riverwalk Medical Center, Skylador “Sutes! Need to borrow you for a moment!” Aliset pulled Alloy up the steps and into the front lobby of the center. The aforementioned eighty year old Senti woman poked her head out of an office, dressed in soft scrubs. “Hey, Ali! Who’s your friend?”...

Ali’s last piece of burial steel was placed on the table, away in the open space of the gym. Below it was folded her clothes as she felt the power fading from her. Not that there was much right now. Walking to the center of the room, Aliset’s nude form could be seen basking in the candle...

maybe i *should* listen to that gentleman with the lightning

He was first. Well, of his section, a shard that had broken from the stresses of planet fall and crashed into a small shop left now to be speckled in red and dust. He stumbled and fell into the rubble with only one or two joining him, veins searing with a will not of his own. What is this...

"Dissapointment." Justice spit, having watched as Mollay fell, as Blue insulted their performance. The same experience as them? He fell through the world! Blue just ran off alone and that map Justice memorized earlier means nothing to him anymore. What is this? What is this hell? He was studying...

"This... NDC? They willingly gave up this information? On good faith?" Fellen grinned with pride. Outside of that pesky Senti, the assignment was terribly easy. "Yes. The Berserkers have granted us their pieces. Our puzzle is complete. The Metallurgists will strike soon. Are there any other...

Aliset walked tall, a soft smile on her lips as she approached the meeting room door. As expected, Spark already had Alloy there, with her shackles leading to one of Spark’s belt loops. Not that she didn’t trust the other tsulrati, but procedures were procedures. And Alloy had been firmly...

Justice's annoyance had grown. Between Tower's jumping into action and the lack thereof from Blue and Mollay. He quickly moved himself from the slow fester of anger against the men and directed it towards the fight at hand. He couldn't do much, not much comfortably anyways. Judgment had already...

Justice was mildly curious about the new member. Alone, in a bathroom, drinking from the water... His suspicion was minor but he wanted to make sure. Justice was staring at the man as the rest were deciding on what to do, watching him, peering in such a way that he would pierce the lonely man's...

Justice cautiously approached the weird... thing that had been successfully dispatched by his teammates. He tried to focus on it's, hopefully, corpse, pulling together what each nerve's last breath was, it's final signals. He began to force his own energy and life into the thing, not enough to...
