Aaaawwwwww YEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH!

As of this moment, four hundred lovely peeps have downloaded a copy of Hevun’s Rebel [still available for free at Smashwords!] and I couldn’t be happier.

Thankyou. Thankyou all :)

I certainly hope you’re enjoying it.

Tell your friends if you are :D Tell them if you think it’d be right up their alley. Tell them if you reckon it might be a welcome change of pace for them.

Share and enjoy, eh?

Tying to explain viviparous reproduction to an oviparous species is more difficult than you'd think.

(#00347)

It was amazing how quickly the humans could clear a space when they put their minds to it. And equally amazing how they could turn all of the matter they cleared into building materials. Even the twigs normally used for traditional nesting habits amongst the Numidid… the humans ground to powder, sealed with glue, and turned them into amazingly straight planks.

The leaves were allowed to rot and produce ‘mulch’, a protective covering that allowed desired plants to

Challenge #00346: Didn't This Happen On Star Trek?

Most sci-fi universes either use FTL travel, or involve long trips in suspended animation to go to new planets. Why not both?

Science moves faster than space travel, and an FTL ship overtakes a stasis ship from the same planet. 

[AN: Working top-down from my inbox because our internet is being a shitty-head]

Fiction became fact so fast that fiction itself had been abandoned. Except for soap operas. Nothing could kill them.

But there were still the beloved classics, and humankind carried

Yay on writing the fic prompts (and I loved the Scott meets Matt one), but from this one and the last time I sent you a Klaus/Zan prompt, it...

There’s more than a little casual-brutality-against-women scattered throughout the pages of Girl Genius. Even with the fact that ladies are capable of fighting back I found it… disturbing.

So I flipped the tables a little too heavily there. I wanted Klaus to go from Lord-in-his-own-right to dirt-beneath-the-sandals and figure how he’d manage to turn this to his advantage in the fulness of time. That, and highlight the turning point where Klaus changes from Being Along For The

Scott Summers, meet Matt Murdock.

(#00345)

Scott adjusted his tie before he rounded the corner. There was Sam Adrien, looking his usual dapper self, and another man in the kind of suit that didn’t need much in the way of thought. Black and white. With a black tie.

He was too short and too muscular to be the urban horror figure of Slenderman, and too relaxed to be FBI. Or at least, FBI on duty.

“Ah, Scott. This is the young fellow I was

Klaus has difficulty adjusting to Skifandrian gender roles.

(#00343)

The view out the window and the scent of the air. There was no doubt about it. This was the lost civilisation of Skifander. A low-quality brigadoon one could only stumble onto when one became lost in the southern Americas.

“Good. You are awake. You are in luck, stranger. The Queen Herself has selected you as her mate. Should you survive your injuries.”

This was one of the Interpreters. Those who had picked up the languages of lost travellers

Challenge #00342: Wild Goose Chase

The Three Pig Trick: Releasing into an area three havoc-causing animals, traditionally pigs, labelled 1, 2 and 4, (may be scaled up for larger numbers of animals) and watching the chaos ensue in catching the labeled animals and searching for the nonexistent missing numbered ones.

The premise was simple. There was a large flock of numbered geese in a fenced enclosure. Their opponents had to catch every last one alive before they went after Shayde and her reluctant companion, Rael.

It shocked

Sloe gin fizzes were like a grown-up version of a milkshake - sweet and creamy and too easy to overindulge on. Much to her dismay the next...

Ow.

It wasn’t the usual “one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor” kind of headache. Those could usually be dealt with by a Tums, a Tylenol, and two bottles of gatorade.

This was knives-in-the-head painful.

Euw. Her entire left side was sticky.

And she was lying on a lot of sharpish, hard, painful objects.

Did she fall asleep in a Lego bin again?

She risked opening an eye.

An abominably cheerful metal face was staring back at
