Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
Subaru woke up with a sigh, exhausted after a very long sleep. The first thing he realized was that he was completely restrained, trapped in some kind of metal capsule with several others around the room he was in. Another thing he could see was his captor, a kind of floating octopus man with...
After so much time, the silence no longer felt like a suffocating void as it once had, but rather a hard-won achievement.
For centuries, the world had been plagued by an endless cycle of destruction, fear, hatred, curses, and death. But now, everything was calm, something that had always seemed...
"Your hair is a disaster, boy. You look like you’ve been dragged through a hedge backwards," Ilsa Shicklgrubermeiger snapped.
She stood at the base of the grand staircase in the Tipton lobby, her posture as rigid as a steel beam and her expression one of permanent disappointment.
Cody winced...
The deploy was scheduled for three in the morning because that was when the fewest people would notice it breaking.
He had made that argument himself, two weeks ago, in a meeting where everyone else had been too tired to disagree. Now it was 2:41 a.m., the office was dark apart from his corner...
The hospital cafeteria's vending machine had a habit of stealing quarters on Tuesdays. It was the only reliable thing about the Tipton Hotel's nearest medical wing.
"Do you think the nurses would notice if we just... adjusted the settings on the heart monitor?"
The voice wasn't Cody's, but it...
Threadmarks: Chapter 1: A Fall Into A Hollow World.
Note: Yo, everyone, Jade or Ghost here. I'm new to QQ and just forum posting in general. As you probably know AO3 is down so I wanted to try out different sites to upload on and see if my fic will get any attention there.
I thought I'd be lost but maybe the loss of AO3 has made me be able to...
Prologue
The dead were gone.
Will lay on his belly at the lip of the hollow and stared down at the place where they had been, and his mind refused to take it in.
An hour ago there had been twelve. He had counted them twice, pressed flat in this same snow with his heart knocking against the...
General Hao ran a hand through his greying beard with a heavy sigh. Spread across the table in front of him, the yellowed lines of a well-used war map stared back, confounding his senses in such a way that even his warm tea could not calm his aching head.
He had been on this particular issue...
At first, there was darkness.
There was nothing. No, there wasn't even nothing at the beginning. No concept existed, for there were no thoughts to create such concepts, for there was no life to have such thoughts. There was just absence. A void.
Then, something came into existence. A flicker...
It was the year 0079 of the Universal Century. A half-century had passed since Earth began moving its burgeoning population into gigantic orbiting space colonies, a new home for mankind, where people were born, raised, and died.
And die they did.
The cluster of colonies furthest from the...
Where were you when Scion appeared?
Where were you when capes came out in numbers?
Where were you when the first Endbringer emerged?
Where were you when Hero died?

Where were you when the Glitch happened?
December 15th, 2010.
It happened on an ordinary day.
People woke up...
This is the beginning of a series parallel to the Nextgen Series, taking place in the Negaverse, a parallel dimension to the main universe. It will follow the adventures of the DNK, all of whom are parallels of the Nextgen KND, but with opposite personalities or characteristics. Unlike the main...
Act 1 - Uzumaki Naruto
"Another burglary thwarted by Sailor Moon, Mercury and … Sailor Mars? Oh, my. Another one. First Sailor V. Then Sailor Moon. Mercury and now Mars. Just how many more are going to show up?" Ikoku wondered.
"Ah! I'm gonna be late! Stupid mom! Why didn't you wake me up...

Chapter 1 - The Wolf of Sunset
Fly east.
Fly far east past the horizon where you can see only one moon, not two.
Fly east until you see a lonely lighthouse and past that den of The Drowned God.
...And there you will find Westeros.
It was not a journey done...

Adventures of a Normal Human Man
_
It was early morning frost on the days around the corner to Christmas that felt the hurrying or sedate ice laden heavy footsteps of New Yorkers as they moved like herd animals minding each way and that. The boy walking down the street in his long overcoat...
Please be aware that I have created a Patron page which I am doing because unfortunately times are tough and I need to make ends meet and help a family member who recently lost their job and has not been able to find anything in the last four months. My original stories, former stories, one...
SAM
The scanner had been squawking for two days before Dad finally called it.
Sam had lost count of how many times he'd heard some variation of the same report crackle out of the speakers — hikers gone missing off marked trails, a ranger station that stopped answering its radio for six hours...
Hello there, as sponsored by the Continuum Exploitation Authority. This is a massive thread for a massive, would-be global collaborative project by me, Absolute Rainbow (who was permanently banned from SpaceBattles primarily for my activist behaviors at the time - don't ask why outside of DM)...
A man clad in pristine white cloth walked down a path that looked like it led somewhere, though "somewhere" was a concept that currently eluded him. He was simply going… forward.
Reinhard van Astrea stopped for a moment, his blue eyes scanning the horizon. Even though he was hopelessly lost...
Tatsumaki screamed, blood dripping from her nose as she thrust both hands toward the sky. Above her, an entire city block complete with a shattered intersection and a half-collapsed grocery store were slowly drifting up into the clouds. She pulled with every ounce of her power to bring it back...
