The Seven Creepies in: The Christmas Crossover Caper | Part 3
I walked over to the door where Creepy Junior stood. At least, I thought, this guy might be a bit more forthcoming than his old man and his old man’s apparent Wheel of Time universe counterpart. “Let me guess,” I … Continue reading

The Legend of the 1500, Part 6
Day 107. 81 pages, 36,200 words. To my surprise, although I should probably have expected it, Creepy had rather huffily departed to achieve honour and glory on his own by the time I finished my noodles and had set up … Continue reading
Torquis in Machina, Part 26
The problem, I reflected later, was that there is never really any good or evil in the world. Even in a place like Xix, it just wasn’t something that could be divided so simply. The closer one got to textbook … Continue reading

Torquis in Machina, Part 23

Torquis in Machina, Part 22

Torquis in Machina, Part 21
“You’re Creepy’s … that is, Hatboy’s son,” I concluded. “The Hatboy who made himself King.” “Illegitimate son,” the man, who I now couldn’t stop thinking of as Creepy Junior, replied self-deprecatingly. “I stepped down from the succession over fifteen years … Continue reading

Torquis in Machina, Part 20
“You’re not going to call the guards?” “No. I assume you’re going to want to leave here, though, and you’re not likely to manage that without meeting a few of them.” “I don’t suppose you’d care to tell me your … Continue reading
Torquis in Machina, Part 25
“What are you planning on doing?” I asked, not entirely sure I wanted to hear it, in the unlikely event of Yoru’s actually knowing. Yoru shrugged, an act which dislodged something wet and slithery from a fold in his clothing. … Continue reading →
