After scientists verify that we live in a simulation, a new field of science emerges: bug finders The man who sat in front of the camera was human. That much was clear.

Gale Rising (Part 65)

March 21, 2020January 19, 2019 by Zuberan

In the push to get to the first aid kits, hobbled by explosions from a thoroughly fortified position and the shrapnel from a dozen blasts from soldiers on both sides, a minute or two passed. Enough that the faintness rimming my head, making black dance around the edge of my eyes grew into a deeper … Read moreGale Rising (Part 65)

The communicator working at all was strange since most of the private frequencies were being jammed to all hell. Stranger still was that I didn’t recognize the signal at all. “If you want to live, and if you want this assault to survive, get Gunze out of the building.” The voice was a low rasp; … Read moreGale Rising (Part 64)

I’d been to the Montgomery Association Headquarters once. It was an ornate building. Gleaming Glass, steel. The avant garde arm of the government, kindly reminding you that Super Heroes were here to help. Now the gleaming letters were scattered on the ground, shattered, and the top half of the building had been blown to pieces … Read moreGale Rising (Part 63)

[WP] Gods can only view the mortal world through their followers’ eyes. As one of the few humans to survive the apocalypse, you have dozens of bored gods in your head competing for your worship.

“Warden,” Boss said, startling me from half asleep. I cracked open my eyes into that dim night. Exhaustion threatened to take me again. Sleep wasn’t coming easy to me that night, despite how tired I was. Muscles ached and quivered, but scenes played behind my eyes. Old faces and older ideas. Memories from the wrong … Read moreA Court For Crows (Part 49)

“Put the gun down,” I said. “All of you.” If the Crows thought I had authority, then I’d use it. Irri’s gun twitched, her finger slipping away from the trigger. “I can explain, I really can.” But she’d been the one to put me in the hell of that military base, so my patience with … Read moreA Court For Crows (Part 48)

[WP] An O is an immortal entity made of pure oxygen. You can tell they are around when the air becomes clearer and the wind whispers with tiny voices you can’t quite make out. Strike a match. Start a fire. Loan them the energy to speak.

True to Boss’s word, the fey were dead outside. Not a flicker in their minds, not a single broadcasted though in the heads. If it wasn’t for the slow movement of their lungs and the quiet hiss of air through their many varied teeth, I’d’ve thought they were statues.
