F&L: Chapter 55

Flourish and Blotts was packed with people, and not just the usual crowd of schoolkids looking to buy their Hogwarts Books, either. The banner out front proclaiming for all to see that Gilderoy Lockhart would be present to sign copies of his Autobiography today clearly showed the reason why. Of course, as I wasn't taking Defense with the rest of the School thanks to my Advanced Tutoring Sessions, I would fortunately not need to waste money on Lockhart's self-aggrandizing books.

True, F...

OG: Interlude: Meanwhile, With the Other Champions VII

Tanaka Yumi had been having an. . .interesting past few months. Honestly, she was surprised at how quickly her organization had grown after dealing with the last attempts by the Daybreak Gang, Lake Angels, and Iron Horse Bandits to put an end to her stealing. Those three, smaller organizations had practically fallen apart under constant pressure from the Aerugonian Mafia, Xing Lan Triad, and Drachma Bratva. She'd managed to scoop up the remnants of those gangs in the aftermath to create her o...

HPLN: Chapter 55

I waited, pacing up and down the corridor. The screams from the room at the end of the hall were getting more frequent as the contractions got closer and closer together. Lanassa was in labor, and I was barred from the room as the physicians and midwives did their work. That was standard practice, though I wasn't totally sure why. There were cultural connotations, of course, but the reasoning behind those cultural connotations eluded me. Either way, I could do nothing but pace up and down the...

RM: Chapter 109

Haypile was about two and a half days over the border from the lands of House Hawick into Mooton Lands. To get there, we actually had to bypass a number of smaller villages and hamlets a day or so out from the border. That was fine, though, as once we had defeated the Army of the Vale in our ambush, we would be free to return and take those villages and hamlets at our leisure. That was the plan, at least. Whether it would work out for us or not had yet to be seen, but I had every confidence t...

OG: Interlude: Meanwhile, With the Other Champions VI

Emma Yung had been having an interesting past few months. Firstly, she'd effectively been voluntold into helping with White Council Wizard Training as soon as the White Council had realized what she could do with Chi and Magic. Not only that, but she had also been pressed into helping some of the White Council's non-Wizard Allies as well, such as Catherine Taylor and Anna Ischenko of the Venatori Umbrorum or Knight of the Cross Shiro Yoshimo, who had only accepted the Chi Training, since trai...

EV: Chapter 26

Wusun was a planet of steppes and mountains. It was largely agricultural in the steppes, but also produced a decent tithe of both Naquadah and Trinium from mines in the mountains. The locals were an interesting mix of people. Both Cronus and my Uncle had put settlers here, with my Uncle's Han-descended Settlers living largely on the eastern edge of the Steppes, where a great river flowed into the ocean after rising in the Mountains that ran along the center of the large continent that made up...

OG: Interlude: Meanwhile With The Other Champions V

Alia Fadal had a rough past couple of months. Sure, she and Tech Jacket had managed to contact the Guardians of the Globe and warn them about Omni-Man, and sure, she'd been able to use her cooking to boost their abilities, but Omni-Man's defeat had cost the lives of Red Rush, Darkwing, and Aquarus. It had also just been the start of things. When he'd failed to slaughter the Guardians of the Globe, Omni-Man had fucked off into space but he hadn't been the only issue to crop up. Mark Grayson, O...

Announcement: Possibly no Chapter Today

It's a Holiday here in the US, Memorial Day. I'm going to be at a barbecue with folks instead of online. I likely won't be able to get a chapter out today accordingly.

Apologies for the inconvenience. I'll have at least three chapters out tomorrow to make up for it.

OG: Interlude: Cyberpunk Epilogue

Jackie Welles lit a candle for Ernesto. They'd never found him after the big explosion that had engulfed the Kabuki Docks. Apparently, he'd just vanished, and Jackie refused to believe he'd been zeroed. Ernesto was too Hard a Gato to just be zeroed like some Gonk. Apparently, the official word was that one of those old Sea Mines from back during the Unification War that the Corpos hadn't bothered to get around to cleaning up yet had managed to break loose from its Rusty Scop of an Anchoring C...

BBG: Images for Chapter Thirty-Four

Here are the images for the last chapter. I had to go through several tries to get some of these right, and I'm still not a hundred percent convinced that Captain Azog's Portrait is good enough. He still looks a bit too much like a Goblin, too lean. It's the best I could get, though.

At any rate, the next chapter will be the next part of the Battle of the Jannath's Tears Archipelago as Robar and Company take on Puissant Undertow Montcalm, First Mate Filveryl Swiftcutter, and Ship's Mage...

OG: Images for Chapter Thirty

Here we have the images for Chapter Thirty. This will be the last batch of images for the Cyberpunk Section of the Fic, as most of the stuff in the Epilogue will either be canon stuff or stuff I've already shown you images of.

At any rate, the next chapter will be the Cyberpunk Epilogue, and then we'll start our other Champion Interludes with Alia Fadal and how she managed to cope with the Invincible Universe. Then we'll move on to Emma Yung with Dresden Files Earth.

Stay tuned. ....

OG: Chapter 30

As soon as I entered Kabuki Central, heading for the Docks down near Pinewood South, it began to rain. Thunder rolling and sky opening up. That was just fucking typical, but I couldn't say it wasn't appropriate. After all, Vulcan did say that I would jump to my next world after zeroing another SI. Why wouldn't this sort of Scop happen if this were the end of my time in this particular world? It was the right move from a dramatic point of view, and the Gods were nothing if not a bunch of Drama...

IS: Chapter 69

I frowned as Suzie and Katrina went off into another room together, hoping that my Adoptive Kid Sister and my Fiancée weren't going to share any embarrassing stories or anything like that. You never could tell when the women in your life got together to talk. Equally likely was Suzie trying to suss out Katrina and see if she was right for me or not, which, given I was planning on proposing over breakfast, wasn't exactly something that I was thrilled about. Of course, I doubted Katrina would ...

BBG: Chapter 34

It was three days later, as we sailed east toward Cadfael Island, that the fight came upon us. As it turned out, there were only four ships. One was from Cadfael Island, a Galley with a Prow that reached up in the shape of a pearlescent seahorse, the Nacre Seahorse, according to the nameplate. At the prow stood a man with a long blonde beard in Magical Breastplate Armor with a Magical Bastard Sword that was both plus three in nature and that was about all I could make out from the De...

OG: Chapter 29

The Walk of Shame back to my apartment after the all-night bit of Stuffit with Meredith Stout at the No-Tell Motel wasn't much of a Walk of Shame, actually. The No-Tell Motel was used to Gonks showing up for a random sexual rendezvous, and there was a lot kinkier stuff that'd gone on here than a bit of wax play, some choking, and so on. Accordingly, nobody said a goddamn word as I made my way out to my car, not even the Joytoys in the Lobby, one of which had a knowing smirk on her face. As I ...

F&L: Chapter 54

Over the course of the next month and a half, I kept myself busy largely with various projects. Not only was I continuing to learn how to cook from Lucia, but I was also learning Spells from the Grimoire of Gwynedd and looking into various enchantments, not just the one requiring the Greater Toadstone for my duster, but also looking into reverse-engineering the Enchantments of the Crown of Gwynedd and the Cloak Pin of Fire Protection, as well as the figuring out spiritual process used to make...

JB: Chapter 16

I spent the next few days between the fight with Shrapnel and my Interview at the Daily Planet looking into the situation on Earth by tapping into global communications networks with the Comms Unit on the Lucky Lady, interspersing that with a bit of training using the Brench Gravity Tiles that I had gotten the ship upgraded with for training purposes. I managed to push my Arcosian Power Level up a further five thousand units to twenty-five-thousand that way, while also learning a few...

RM: Chapter 108

Ser Andar Royce was a tall, bearded man, though not necessarily broad. He was more wiry than anything else, lending him the appearance of a spruce tree in human form. Lord Mors Marshberry, my Bannerman, who had arrived the previous day with his reinforcements from Harrenhal, liked the comparison so much that her gave Ser Andar the nickname of Ser Spruce. That, it seemed, had stuck with Ser Andar, much to his exasperation. Personally, I felt that Ser Andar was rather better armored than a Spru...

OG: Chapter 28

The Debriefing that I went through with Suzie Q was pretty quick, honestly, she was more interested in the fact that I'd zeroed both Nikita Letov and Igor Baranov than she was in hearing about the fight with Aleksander Yurinov. Apparently, between the attacks on the Red Cyclone Bathhouse and the Hotel Vladivostok, we'd wound up zeroing around seventy-five Gangoons working as enforcers for the Night City Organiskaya. They only had one-hundred-fifty Boeviks in their entire Mob. They were down a...

EV: Chapter 25

The next three months were a flurry of activity. Not only did I have to invest in my newly seized worlds from the former borderlands, but I also had to make sure that my forces were ready to assault Cronus. At the same time, I was also trying to devote time to half a dozen personal projects as well, mostly of the engineering variety. Reverse-Engineering the set of Ancient Armor that I took from Begtse, figuring out Attack Configuration Tel'tacs, and a few other odds and ends, such as using th...

MM: Images for Chapter Fifty-Four

Here we have the Images for Chapter Fifty-Four. Not just the stuff from the Labyrinth, like the Book of Cagliostro and Mask of Amenhotep, but also a few images of various components of Ultron's Army of Vibranium-Plated Combat Drones as well. Hopefully, those turned out all right, I couldn't quite get the Image Generators to pick up on the Ultron Design Ouvre, so let's just say he's trying a new look here.

At any rate, the next chapter will have Jan emerging into the midst of Ultron's as...

NT: Interlude: Meanwhile, In Sunnydale

Xander Harris was pretty wigged out. Sure, he'd seen some weird stuff over the past couple years, but he'd largely gotten used to a certain level of wigginess. A lot of supernatural stuff was in his wheelhouse now, especially after meeting Ulysses. This, though, seemed different somehow. See, he was standing over a corpse in the alleyway behind the Local S-Mart, which wasn't super unusual. The fact that whatever had killed the Corpse had burrowed underground wasn't unusual either. Plenty of t...

OG: Images for Casino Interlude

Here we have the images for the last of the interludes, showing things like the Sewers and the Casino and whatnot. Hopefully, you guys are enjoying image dumps when I put them out. This one wasn't too much of a pain in the ass to generate, though.

At any rate, the next chapter will be a return to the MC's POV as he meets with Meredith Stout. We've only got three or four more chapters left to go in Cyberpunk, depending on how long it takes me to write the end of the Arc out.

Stay ...
