Thickets upon thickets of Softberry trees hugged the hills surrounding Jarvirium, their flowers just beginning to bloom with red and blue hues to mark the start of Spring. They served as the last frontier of natural life for the capital, an uncanny streak of wildlife in a city that now operated like a well-oiled, undead machine.
“‘Scuse me,” Momo apologized. “Sorry.”

He was accompanied by another, Knight Stuford, both of them belonging to the highest ranks of their former circle. Former being an hour...
2023-05-15 14:41:38 +0000 UTC View PostA small digital clock spawned just above the tablet. With a humble click, the timer began.
Momo’s eyes widened to the size of baseballs, the situation catching up with her. Oh no. She had been too caught up in the cosmic Cat Mom vs. Cat beef that she forgot the most critical, doomed part of it all: she was expected to write poetry.
This was bad for many ...
2023-05-12 21:27:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe door to the exhibit didn’t have a handle, only a small hollow recess in the shape of a sphere. Momo didn’t have to be a genius to figure out what to do with it; gripping the Oblivion Stone tightly in her hand, she shoved it into the crevice, and waited.
“Fantastic, just fantastic. The anomaly has the key. Kyros is going to set us on holy fire for this one,” the voice ...
2023-05-11 19:28:16 +0000 UTC View PostSome problems require straightforward solutions.
This was not one of them.
Either that, or a mix of sleep deprivation, several grave, untreated wounds, and Momo’s recent transformation into some kind of malevolent hell goblin convinced her that the only reasonable way out of this was not to retrieve the last remaining shard of Oblivion – but to become it.
In retro...
2023-05-10 20:59:00 +0000 UTC View Post“Sumire!”
Nura wrestled off Momo’s back like an excited child. Within seconds, the sisters were embracing. With their shared tangle of brown hair and honey-brown skin, they looked, for a moment, almost identical. Two halves of the same.
Momo didn’t expect the way it made her heart hurt.
The tableau reminded her of the few family pictures her mom would allow on the wall...
2023-05-09 19:34:38 +0000 UTC View Post"Going goblin mode," it turned out, was no joke.
She felt it first in her stomach. An ache – then a sharp pain. She hissed involuntarily, attracting the attention of one of the grunts. He turned his bulbous white head towards her as the air around her bubbled. It had turned humid, boiling. Literally blue with heat. Momo’s skin felt like it was being ripped straight off her fa...

The world was ending, and it was giving Momo severe indigestion.
Either that – or she was bleeding internally.
Momo had summoned her argentavis to nosedive them back towards the high seats where Radu and Akram had been sitting, but her companions were missing. No lizards, no pirates, no familiarity – just fierce, cloud-shaped resistance.
Falling from the sky by the hundred...
2023-05-05 20:28:07 +0000 UTC View PostEji swooped down behind Momo. Nura whimpered, and hugged Momo around the middle.
Momo thrust her hands out and grinned.
It’s been a while since I got to do this.

2023-05-04 20:38:42 +0000 UTC View PostAfter a bit more persuading, Alessia finally let her sword down. Of course, it came with a condition – Nara would have to wear a muzzle. A genuine, dog’s-would-hate-this muzzle. It fit like a face mask, but with a little more metal cage where the comforting cotton should be.
“Why do you even own this?” Nara groaned. She walked behind Alessia on the unpaved road, the hunte...

Standing next to her was her short and plump husband, dressed to the nines in a workman’s uniform. He was green, somehow, the color of broccoli, and had long, horizontal ears.
“Who are you calling a vampire?” Nara said, i...

Hey y'all. Quick update. I'm feeling slightly burnt out this week and have a lot of family responsibilities coming up on Easter, so I'm going to to take a small posting break until Thursday (the 13th). Thanks for understanding, and happy Easter, Passover, etc.! <3
Also, here's some really cute fanart that specracer29 in the Discord made. So adorable.
A/N: This is chapter 2 of my upcoming story, Vampiric Potionmaking. You guys seemed pretty excited and receptive on the first chapter, so I thought I'd keep shelling out some chapters until I run out of backlog. Enjoy!

2023-03-08 22:36:44 +0000 UTC View PostBefore Momo could find out what Sumire meant, the knight’s face was squished into the bartop, her sniffles and snores echoing throughout the tavern.
“I see no one’s dead, then,” Teddy remarked, lifting an eyebrow at Momo.
Momo frowned. She slipped her arms under Sumire’s, but the girl was surprisingly heavy. Momo nearly toppled over under the weight of the fluffy Luhhka. S...
2023-02-18 13:50:50 +0000 UTC View PostMomo had a nagging feeling. Nagging in the quite literal sense, where the feeling was throwing itself around her body, pestering every bone and blood cell to deliver a message to her brain. A subtle screaming that said do something you dimwit.
Momo stared at Sumire as she slid onto her horse. Momo couldn’t decide if it was drowsiness or despair, but the knight had a permanently...

As Sumire’s hand flew from her coat, a scimitar sparkled in the light. Both the blade and hilt were gleaming white, the latter decorated with colored jewels. Its surface was so bright and reflective that it briefly disappeared under the...

Momo grinned dumbly at Dusk, who rolled her half-moon eyes back at her. Momo was standing in front of her mirror, flexing her arms in a freshly fitted suit of chainmail. The breastplate had to be handcrafted, but the pants were a simple flick of the fingers, thanks to her magic pantaloons.
The cherry on top was the hat. Borrowed ...

The cat meowed in annoyance, holding the gecko firmly between her teeth. Momo glared at her, making a downward gesture with her thumb.
“Put him down.”
Dusk stayed stubbornly still. Nooblin squirmed, flailing his tiny legs uselessly.
“To think I was going to stop by the market to get you som...
2023-02-13 16:19:53 +0000 UTC View PostPlacing the scepter behind her, Momo turned her attention to the remaining items in the box. Inside was a folded cape, soft as a pillow to the touch. It was a pleasant, dull black, with gold trimmings running up and down the edges. A pattern of smiling cat-skulls was embroidered into the attached collar, which clicked pleasantly around the neck with a cat-shaped button.
“Oh, god,” Mom...
2023-02-09 11:48:07 +0000 UTC View PostWith a groan, Momo flopped her head down on her writing table. An abused quill slipped from her palm, inking a trail of black on the wooden surface. Her wrists ached. Her back was most likely inflamed, and her eyes were nearly bloodshot.
“Dusk,” she whined, “I don’t think I’m cut out for this.”
Within her first week of rule, Momo had become what she feared most ...

“And she says I have a flair for the dramatic,” Valerica rolled her eyes.
The tower began to tremble. After a long moment, it started to ...
