Act 2 Chapter 2
Rebecca grinned as she stared up the glowing blue and pink neon signs before her. With the bright and stylized font of the bar's name along with the strutting outline of a skull-faced whore, she’d found her once more in her old stomping ground. “Lizzie’s bar,” She whispered with a grin on her face as she walked up to the line that had formed at the...

Absolution could only scream inside as he faced a room of panicking believers. Some shouted and begged for him to delay the apocalypse while others were starting to panic. With the room on the verge of descending into pandemonium, he had to act fast. Raising his hand, he assured them “No! There will be no apocalypse anytime soon. Not when you guys just go...

In the end, a compromise was made between the races of the Citadel on the matter of Nevermore’s citizenship. As his allegiance to any single nation would cause the balance of power to tip to an untenable level, he was given what was effectively a citizenship to the Citadel. He technically only holds allegiance only to the Citadel and the Citadel alone. As for...

A Day in Night City
Life in Night City wasn’t like what it used to be. It was different, radically so, but in a good way for most. This was the reality that John woke up within in his clean spacious apartment located right inside Watson. Even after all the times he’d peered out of his apartment window while he prepared for the day, he still couldn't ...

His name was Absolution and he was absolutely spent right now. He sighed wearily as he slumped against his throne. After that rather embarrassing display where he had basically opened up the well of power deep within him and having it burst out like a shaken cola bottle, things had more or less settled down.

He gritted his teeth in frustration as he leaned back against the throne. Slowly, he reached for his nose and pinched the bridge of his nose as he felt the looming headache rear it ugly head. Oh, he couldn’t have a headache as he was God but the sentiment still stood as he just found exactly where he was right now and he wasn’t sure if he should be elated o...
Planting Season
Magsnik stared at the field before him, surveying the land before him as he adjusted the straw hat he wore. The fields had been left to rest for a bit, letting wild fungi grow on it unimpeded just like how it should be. They protected the soil while he prepared for the next planting season but now, they had to go. With leftover mulch and other flamma...

If somebody told Rebecca 3 months ago that she’d be both the personal executioner and mistress of a big shot in Arasaka, she would have shot them in the head and burned their bodies for good measure for insulting her. It was supposed to be an impossibility, yet life had a funny way of turning people’s expectations upside down. Just a few months ago, sh...

To take upon the mantle of a Huntress, one must dedicate their life to protecting the weak and innocent. To be a huntress is to spend every waking hour fighting off the very darkness spawned by mankind. It’s no easy decision given how one must offer their own lives for the safety of others. The life of a huntress is a life of sacrifices. Many wou...
One Bad Trip
When Ivy took in her best friend Harley after a particularly nasty break up with her “Puddin’~”, she expected some headaches. It was after all unavoidable considering how crazy Harley could be at times. It was actually a miracle how they got along, but the world had a funny way of bringing people together. Still, as much as she loved the adorably misgui...

Magsnik wiped away a stray bead of sweat before he looked around and surveyed the fortifications he had been building for the farm.
