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.

I still vividly remember the most profound thought I had after I had woken up in this new life.
The question wasn't what to steal.
The question was what to steal first.
Now, that wasn't my first thought when I woke up. No, that had been a mixture of 'why the hell does everything...
[You Are Dead]
I was catatonic. Not because I was in shock - ok, I was a little bit in shock - or because I was dead - well, that was just a lie - or because of how I had died - that had been the least surprising things of all - but because I had a game-like screen floating in front of my face...
Threadmarks: Chapter 1: "The Death of a Fan, The Birth of a CEO"
Part 1: The End
The apartment was a disaster.
Not in the "I should probably clean this weekend" sense. In the "this is a monument to obsession and poor life choices" sense. Every surface was covered in something. The desk had three monitors, two of which were displaying spreadsheets full of...
The first blade left its sheath beneath the Tower of Joy before Eddard Stark knew whether Lyanna still drew breath. Steel whispered all along the shelf of red stone. Willam Dustin raised his shield. Theo Wull brought his long axe across his chest, the edge scarred from the Trident, while Ethan...

"Certain you are, yes? Reversible this is not." The ancient Jedi Master said, his gnarled green fingers tapping against his gimer stick. I nodded slowly, my gaze sweeping across the Council Chambers one final time.
The circular room felt suffocating...
Once more, seeking all the criticism!
Standard disclaimers apply.
Beta read by my good friend EternalSword.
To call this place empty would be inaccurate, for emptiness implies absence, a something to fill the nothing this plane exists beyond.
Time and space are meaningless, light and dark...

Deep breaths.

He repeated the motion, filling himself with lungs full of air before exhaling. Once his heart had steadied and he felt the exhaustion fading away from the mount's climb, Tavin finally opened his eyes and embraced the darkness.
The others would...
Chapter 1: Second Death, First Breath
SUMMARY
Noah died a hit man and woke a newborn in a world where beings with god-like powers walked among men.
His mother was a mutant who could absorb learned skills through touch: languages, combat, hacking, anything trained rather than innate. A rogue...
The cold didn't arrive all at once. It worked its way up from the ground, a slow, invasive chill that settled into my chest before I even managed to open my eyes. My first thought was that I'd left the window open. My second was that the bedding felt off, smelling like dirt?
I tried to push...
With prereading, editing assistance, and occasional input by Brain Power!
I couldn't really tell you exactly when I became what I am, as I'm fairly certain that the merger was retroactive in nature and the actual incident might actually not have happened yet. There was no way that I should be...
AN - a weird amount of Metal Gear solid talk considering I've only played the one with Venom snake, but I like the comment and I think MGS2 is a better thrown out reference than a Space Odyssey, The Matrix, or Terminator.

Ryuto Malfoy had long since stopped finding the English countryside beautiful. He'd seen it too many times — through too many carriage windows, too many Ministry galas, too many early-morning escapes from his father's expectations. Now he pressed his forehead against the cool glass of the...
Ryuto kicked the can and watched it skitter across the pavement, bouncing off a storm drain with a hollow tink.
"Another day, another absolutely nothing happening," he muttered, hands stuffed into his hoodie pocket. At least the Power Rangers episode had been worth it the fight choreography...
You know, going to bed one day and finding yourself waking up as Ben about three months before he received the Omnitrix had me feeling giddy. I mean, who wouldn't?

Chapter 1: Twin Suns of Mandalore
I maintain that if Korkie hadn't looked at me like that, I wouldn't have done it.
It was the smugness. The little arch of the brow as he scooted his seat closer to the table. The sanctimonious way he reached—reached—for the fruit bowl like he hadn't just...
Chapter 1: Welcome to Pandora
It was hard to breathe, I couldn't even open both my eyes. I tried to settle for one and blearily glanced down at myself to see my clothes covered in blood, most of it wasn't even mine. I felt a weight at my side and saw the body of a beautiful woman. She was caked...
At nine years old, Izuku Midoriya lost something irreplaceable.
Growing up, Izuku had always wanted to be like his older brother. He simply never imagined that his older brother would never get to see him grow up. As he and his mother watched the hero news. His brother face seemed to appear on...
