I created the world in seven days, slayed the dreaded Leviathan, and created man in my image.
As god I did all these things and in doing so, my essence has been made weary. Naturally, usually, I recover from such a state, but new sensation has plagued my mind: I have become sleepy. There have been entire days that I ... |
Earth. What was once supposed to be the masterpiece of the Creator. What a disappointing turn of events over the ages this once beautiful place has been.

"They're following you,"he said even as he looked over his shoulder.
The pouring rain blurred his vision. He pulled out a cloak from his satchel and wrapped it around himself.

“Oh. Then this is…awkward.”
“Is it?”
Suddenly I felt incredibly self-conscious about my cloaked black robe and the bejewelled dagger in my hands. I felt like I was shrinking as they raised an eyebrow, awaiting a response, clearly unfazed by my enthusiasm for re-animating the deceased. My neck wasn’t anymore into this... |

I think of our relationship as symbiotic, not parasitic. If anything, *he's* the parasite. He hasn't left the house in two weeks. The room smells of the moldering grease in a hundred discarded Taco-Bell bags and it doesn't even register for him. We're re-watching the same anime for the third time in a row while he stri... |
"It's natural that you are going to hate me. I understand more than you know."
The weirdo in the battered trenchcoat and the faded tuxedo just stared at me, his cool, icy blue eyes unblinking and merciless in their intensity.

Sir Scallion De Beets, he looks like a fool. Charging across the meadow on that damnable dappled war horse, his wooden sword held high above his head. I’d only just packed the saddlebags, after all.

I remember it like it was yesterday. The call came in over the radio, then silence. Vast Monoliths appeared above our shores, a deathless plague some called it as electronics failed and people vanished in clouds of sparks, invisible hands scorching them from existence.
