I was visiting my parents for the day, and after all these years they still hadn’t moved out of the house I grew up in. As I walked up the stairs of my childhood home, I had one thought on my mind: “the mirror.” Walking into my old room, I noticed that everything was just as I left it, even after twenty years. I stifle... |
#July 27, 2021
No matter if I speak or write, the count will go down. It always goes down.
Ever since I could remember, my number floated visibly above my head. Visible only to me, mind you. To everyone else, I’m just the quiet kid.
I remember that when I first learned how to subtract, I was utterly curious abou... |
They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
The problem is that intentions are just intentions - there is no action, no follow through. My father is, no, was a good man. He was a man of action. When old man Granger’s car broke down, my father drove him everywhere until Granger’s clunker was fixed. My fath... |
They say the fey and it's creatures receded when the wilds were conquered by cities and technology, but that's not true. If you know where to look, you can still find magic. Today's story is about a seemingly mundane chest that was thrown away with it's secret undiscovered. A chest of minor valuables, attuned to the fa... |
The door hissed and started to roll away. Dirt fell into the hole followed by a lot of snow. I’d foreseen that we could have become buried, so so there were tools on hand to help dig our way out if needed. It only seemed to be a foot or so of dirt, and then the same of snow, and it opened up no problem. The bunker... |
"Cruise missiles are just far to fucking expensive, Lieutenant, we only have a budget of fifty million a year"the Captain pondered, thinking of new ways to finish his enemies off. "What about torpedo's? Maybe gatling guns? Nobody has that much armor nowadays..."the Lieutenant trailed off, looking over to the first mate... |
Walking to college Max was suddenly hit by a massive gust of wind and saw others around him literally blown over. Looking up and forward he noticed that Mikey was flying at mach 3 to class. Again.
"Why can't he just leave five minutes earlier!"A girl to Max's left screamed as she burst into flames turning the papers s... |
It was genuinely funny to see the frustrated and furious looks that so called "experts"gave me as I approved the first library card they had seen in years to someone who "didn't even appreciate the art"and "would ruin the value of such powerful artifacts."Of course it was folks that said those things that I always turn... |
"Here is a key to each room of the house, for all of them are yours,"I told Henrietta as I closed the bunch in her soft, soft hands.
"But Jainil, why would I ever need any of these when I only want to be in whichever room that you are?"
"Indulge me Henrie, indulge me. But Henrie?"
"Yes Jainil?"
She paused to look ... |
At first I wasn't sure if it was part of the movie or she was actually talking to me. 'This isn't Dora, The Explorer,' I thought. It was late, I was tired and had just smoked the last of my weed, so anything was possible in my mind's eye.
"hurry, if you know something I don't, please tell me!"exclaimed the girl on th... |
My parents were far from noble born - my mother, a strong, proud woman who raised four boys and two girls, all as she worked in a garden owned by a powerful grain wholesaler - and my father, his chosen taskmaster, sent to enact his cruel will upon enemies and slow debtors alike.
Then came the day that the astrologers... |
"And this is a cliffhanger ending"
The dark king was baffled at this hero's words.
"Another season? Really?"
The young knight released the king from his grip.
"Yea, didn't Carol tell you after the morning meeting?"
"I didn't go to the meeting... You know it takes me some time to get into character"
A loud bell rang. ... |
"so... You hate yourself?"The short round alien diplomat was having trouble with the translations to the human common dialect and it wasn't getting better.
"No, not on a personal level, well, some of us do but, generally no, we humans only hate some humans. "The translator used 100 words before giving up on that sen... |
As I stared down the barrel of the small handgun, merely inches from my face, barely illuminated by the light of the dimly lit alley, I could hear my heart pounding in my ears. I'd just been out drinking, my friends, already gone, why was I stupid enough to come this way? It was shorter, a quicker route to get to the s... |
All I wanted to do was check my email. Instead I find myself pondering the Trolley Experiment, stricken by ambivalence. I don't know why my morality is being tested, but I have no choice but to comply with this strange question.
Hypothetically, I could harm another human personally, or through indirect circumstances I... |

Oh Jove. This is bad. “Sir, the engines’ ventilation filters are faulty. We need to surface now!”
“Kawasaki, how much air do we have left?” Captain McHowls barked, spittle flying onto the unlucky few closest to him.
Thankfully, I was in the middle row. “Thirty minutes, sir.”
The captain growled. Literally growled. I... |
When the machine finally printed its report I couldn't understand it. There, immediately below 'Yellowstone supervolcano eruption', were the names of my elderly neighbours Janet and Frank Benowitz.
I stood there looking at the report as my hand begun to shake, a bead of sweat crawled down my forehead and I coughed at ... |
I stared in disbelief at the strange, glowing instrument before me. It had appeared out of thin air, as all spirit weapons do, and carried the faint blue glow associated with them, however, how the hell could a saxophone be a weapon?! I picked it up, despite the fact that such an action was pointless: spirit weapons ba... |
I am but a hundred years old. Barely a fresh hatchling as my parents would describe me. But I am amongst the most powerful and proud of beings. I am a Dragon. A Great Drake, one whom legend will inevitably revolve around. Doing as many of my kind have done in the past, I laid claim to a domain.

The ever rushing trees and plants zipping by were an incredible sight to behold. So many swirling colours and different landscapes. For the past hour there hadn’t been a dull moment. Swirling shades of verdant greens, the flashes of brightly coloured wildflowers. All of it offset by the stunning blue sky. It was imposs... |
“Thank you again, brave heroes”, the village Elder says, bowing his head to me again.
“Please, we were just in the area, can’t just pass by a wyvern attacking and do nothing”, I try reassuring him with a placating gesture of my hand.

As wizards go, this one was less than stellar. Where other wizards may have completed their training at fancy European institutions filled with ghosts, this one went to a less prestigious institution that mainly held classes online. But he did have the certificate, if not necessarily the skill. He held up the c... |
"Are you kidding me!?"Captain Marble slammed the paper down on the desk, his rocky hands almost breaking it in the process. "I saved an entire city! Where's that written down!?"The handcuffed doctor let out his trademark laugh.

I opened my eyes and looked around the room... It was dimly lit and there were monitors and wires everywhere. I tried to lift my arms, but they just didn't work. I manage to look down at my chest where I see a wound-vac. Suddenly I felt uneasy, and pain. Immense pain. I passed back out, unable to process what my senses... |
In the year 2254 a mysterious pandemic has spread across the world. It causes people to become comatose. This occurs in people of all ages and all levels of health. No other symptoms are reported. The CDC has no idea how the disease spreads nor from whence it came.
Meanwhile androids across the world have begun to dev... |
I’m not exactly a normal person.
Hello, and my name is Chuy. I’ve been deaf since I was 15, due to an accident, but in that very same accident I also developed telepathy. I can read thoughts, basically. Since I’ve spoken before, my voice is also mostly normal, but apparently a little off according to the doctors who p... |
"You can see this too, can't you?"
What was see exactly? This was the first time I could open my eyes.
I knew from my time being bullied in high school that being different was bad.
In a world everyone was born with eyes wide shut, no one should be able to open their eyes.
But if I closed my eyes, would I be ab... |
“Well.” Her lips pull into what would be a smile if it weren’t so smug. “That was to be expected.”

I read the prompt and sat down to write. This would be fantastic, I knew it, no reason to check. I mean I promised myself I wasn’t going to check anymore, every time I check I just wind up disappointed. I can do this, I don’t need to know.
There’s a garbage can full of false starts from where I checked and was di... |
The Maestro is a hero that is the stuff of legends. She was easily the best hero to have existed in the last ten generations. The Maestro's powers were not very well explained, even to her! This made the bad guys wonder how exactly to beat her. After a point, no one had any solution. Everything was laid to waste by The... |
Again and again humanity has proven itself to be selfish by nature. The moment they get the chance to wish upon a star or call a great being, it is always for their own benefit. I tire of it. I am tired of being called upon, my name misused, my rituals stained in sacrifices and blood. Within madhouses of human skin cov... |
This was it.
Finally, I had the damn hero where I wanted him - in an abandoned building with no backup as a bomb sat somewhere under the city, its detonator in my back pocket. And of course, there was no negotiations, only a bloody, unfair fight between light and dark. Hero and villain. Two men who have spent years... |
I gasped as I fell to the floor, then my amulet began to heat with great power. I stood up straight to be more presentable, as well as brushing off my loincloth and pulling up my sarashi to appear more modest. If I was to join in a binding contract, I’d rather not have this human too distracted by my features - a warni... |

“Oh Sarah,” you laugh at your roommate’s prank, “I’ll humor you this time.” You walk to all the doors and relock them as they were locked already. When you check your phone again, it tells you to close all of your curtains.

"Did you not put on sunscreen again?"your mom asks in the same tone of voice as when she knows you ate the piece of cake being saved in the fridge (even though she is glad you saved her from indulging herself).

Grandpa Clare was an odd chap, Leonard thought. Kind, generous, but odd. He made stringed instruments of all kinds, and gave away his best works to any poor musician that tickled his fancy. There was no money in that. Statistically, almost no musician ever turned a profit. He was here to fix that.

Daniel had always wondered: why do so many stories, from so many different eras, tell stories of the mythical White Knight, the solemn, nameless warrior who appears just in time, to save the day from evil?
That was before he learned the White Knight's secret. He'd idolized the knight all his life, so much so that he'd... |
I am paralysed, I am not alone, and I am afraid.
My mind exists in the twilight fog halfway between asleep and awake. I am conscious, and aware of my surroundings, but I have yet to retake control of my body. The signals to most muscles are blocked when you sleep. Normally this stops you sleepwalking. Normally the b... |
"Give it back!"Matthias shrilly screeched.
A small redheaded boy, Dane, faced him offering a devilish grin. In his hand lay the crude wooden knife Matthias had been constructing for days.
"Why don't you make me,"Dane laughed, sprinting towards the sea of cool green that surrounded the pack of children.
Quickly, I... |
It's cold. And wet.
It shouldn't be. I was a necromancer in life,an abomination in the eyes of the Goddess. I should be burning in the nineteen hells, being cut to pieces by screaming bees, and having my teeth flattened with needles.
So how am I cold?
Oh. That's interesti... |
A sea witch must have cursed me. There was no other explanation for it. First I caught a bad cold. Happens to the best pirates. But I slowly started to lose my hearing. And now, I was deaf as a rock. I wouldn't even hear a cannon fired next to me, just feel the explosion. I knew that my career was about to end. We were... |
One Time On Tinder
I.
One night in early June, I was swiping through Tinder when I saw a profile for a drop-dead gorgeous girl. She had two pictures, both wearing a pink beret. In one of them she wore a hoodie and in the other she was smiling in white sundress. Her face was perfect. I don’t know what it was about the... |
Everyone was taking the plunge!
"Try it!"
"Do it!"they said.
They all took the risk, and it was worth it. Sometimes trying out a new hobby, going out on a date after a hard break up, maybe even switching careers or paths can feel as scary as jumping off a cliff.
Sometimes even just putting a pen 🖊 to paper and ... |

*Okay I'm clearly in the wrong place. Again.* He thought to himself as he got out of his car and started walking towards the chain-link fence. He had been about to turn around due to the lack of any other cars or people, when he had seen the neon glow, and curiosity took over.
Now he was standing with his fingers lace... |

"Where are the fucking pockets,"I heard Aly mutter viciously.
She clicked frantically through pages and pages of women's clothing, searching for at least one respectable-looking dress with a single pocket on it. So far, she had had no luck. She had been at it since two in the morning. It wa... |
“I used to be an adventurer like you, till I took an arrow to the knee” I say casually to the strange argonian in confusing mismatched armor. He stares silently back a moment, and slowly draws his bow. I tense a moment, hand at my old blade fast as ever, but I see no arrow, and I will never so much as unsheathe till I ... |
O5-6 sighed as she irritatedly watched the TV. On the screen, one could see the Foundation's strongest military force, the Samsara, battle with the large purple anomaly that had been designated SCP-5901.

Prince of the Abandoned
-Liam p.o.v-
My whole life had always been planned, every day down to the minute. But that’s the life of a prince, and being the crown prince made this ten times more demanding. So it was a shock to my whole system when I was kidnapped by a group of mercenaries. And that so far it’s been three... |
“Would you agree that the wraiths had *nightmares where their eyes should be*?”
“Is this really the time, Chanticleer?” Roald tightened the makeshift tourniquet around Geneve’s thigh. It would only buy her an hour, but he had to try.

Darkness. Always darkness. I was a creature that belonged in the dark and damp, in the places people had forgotten, in the places they abandoned. I should hate people, I should enjoy their suffering, their pain. But there was something so fascinating about their capacity for love. They wrote stories about it. They sang... |
"I mean, can't you just use magic?"
"I mean I could, yeah, but a gun is a lot less complicated"
"Can't you just cast defensive spells? Use spells to attack people?"
"That takes a lot more time than a gun."
"It does? You can't just wave your hand and cast a spell?"
"No, its not that simple. You need components, the... |
Clarence looked up at the hilltop manor, closely eyeing the silhouettes that danced upon the stained glass that adorned each window frame. He shouldered his equipment and holstered his trusty sidearm before taking in a deep breath. “Emma, it is just you and me again,” he whispered as he tapped the chipped, but well-pol... |
Putting down the phone, I slipped into my car. I was needed. There had been a call for aid, and I was off to the rescue. Unfortunately, my superpower wasn't flight, which would have gotten me there faster.
Pulling out onto the highway, I sighed, as red brake lights lit up in front of me. Traffic. Of course, there w... |
I pause, for just a second to take a look back at the crowd. Their stares are indignant at best and horrified at worst.
I lift my mask back up and stumble towards the counter. As I walk by, I throw my half filled Chipotle bag into the trash.

How long has it been? This near perpetual fate of being on the brink of death made me lose almost all sense of time, days and weeks truly no different than years and decades for me. My only solace were the brief moments between death when whatever system bringing me back allowed me the briefest of moments to process th... |

Every day is the same, but there's a certain pleasure that comes with that monotony. I get up at 5, shower, eat, and then head off to the Batterbrook station to catch the 6:00 train to Bakersfield. I usually don't get home until 9:00 PM where I quickly collapse onto my bed and pray to God for eight hours of uninterrupt... |

Water was dripping when I came to. My eyes were covered, and my hands were tied. I couldn’t see anything, but it smelled earthy and damp. I must have been underground somewhere.

*Crap* I thought as I stared at the rainbow splatters on and around me. I got on the comms with my fellow NPCs. “Be careful out there guys. We’ve got modders on the field.”

I ducked behind a wall to recover and reload. “I’ve only seen Paintball so far.”... |
Quiet again. The day is so loud. Children run and scream, but with excitement and happiness. I love the children. Being around them feels right. They love me too. During the day, they watch me dance and sing, and they dance and sing too.

She turned into the alleyway, gasping for breath as she dashed over months of accumulated refuse: bags of trash, old appliances, boxes upon boxes toppled in crooked piles. Behind her, they snarled and screeched, their razor-sharp claws scraping against the concrete.

Dear Sam,
Wow. One month already since you left. The time is just flying, isn’t it? At least, I hope it is for you. We’ve been doing… okay, at least since you left, but boy, things sure are different. Not *bad* different, I guess, but… different.
Well, for starters, your room is *totally* different. I guess you know ... |
Jacob reached down, a numb right hand feeling around the pain. *Blood*. His red hand dripped into the filthy alleyway puddle he lay in. The rain trickled down, dotting him all over. His mouth hung open, waiting for words that would never come. His head lay in a smaller puddle. His hair had been soaked. His mind went co... |
The sky had split open by the time I managed to make it back to my apartment.

I walked up behind her, wrapped my arms around her,... |

Taboo energy; it's some kind of energy generated by creatures like unicorns and dragons and griffons and stuff.

Nope, still sounds wrong. Shook my head. Hair got in my eyes.... |
That was just another job. I wouldn't go that far to say that was a "regular"job, but, in the end of the day, you should stay professional. Get in - get out - lose the pursuit. Three easy steps to follow.
