Project Tycoon is a hard sci-fi story that takes elements from many fictional stories and videogames, plus taking all my wrong engineering knowledge. Expect references to common sci-fi tropes plus mentions from newly published papers. <<less

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. ... more>>

Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

If you’re a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don’t want to miss this series!

After meeting his end with the crushing impact of a metro train, a homeless, 30 year old thief is reborn into a dystopian world known as Ultima. It is composed of 27 Districts, overseen by the 27 Walls, and created almost entirely out of abandoned cityscapes, overgrown forestries, natural monuments, and ruins left behind by the ancients. ... more>>

Ultima is buried within the Great Divide, a large continent-sized cavern that experiences both moonlight and sunlight through snakelines, sinkholes, and ravines above, but is ever closer to the depths of the underworld than it is to the surface.

To escape the confines of the Divide, the Core, District 1, the ruling authority, constructed Terminus, a self-building terminal. From its inception, Terminus flawlessly executed its purpose, erecting a tower that successfully reached the surface.

But instead of ceasing all functions like the terminal was programmed to do, it had instead started to expand horizontally, actively swallowing the Divide as it gave room to the many mechanical, botanical, or biological horrors that call the floors, places in between the Walls, home— effectively creating a dungeon.

Upon humanity's last interaction with the terminal and subsequently their failed war, it started referring to itself as the Architect, a creature known as a shadow born from the mysterious parasitic disease known as shadowfell, which has stalked humanity ever since their inception from the lower abyss. 

The Architect's goal was once widely agreed upon to be extinction, but now it is theorized to be replacement, with his last proclamation being: “I will construct the perfect humanity.” <<less

A lesbian science fiction retelling of Ragnarok and the events leading to it.... more>>

It has been a millennium since mankind abandoned its home. Corporations have carved up the heavens, and brought humanity to the stars with them to finalize those borders in blood. Their weapon of choice: Einherjar, ten meter tall humanoid mechs, powered by an exotic energy source as-of-yet barely understood.

Just under the illusion of peace sold to the public, mercenary pilots fulfill the wills of those who hold the reins of power. Pilots like Aria, a conscript turned freelance mercenary aided by her illegal and fully sentient AI companion, Nimue. After taking what seemed to be a routine job for a routine client, Aria and an erstwhile rival, Maks, find themselves facing down something older, more territorial, and far more deadly than any corporate force. And what’s more, their encounter has drawn the baleful eye of the deranged leader of the Penrose Foundation upon themselves. <<less

You might think that in the twenty-third century, after having reached the stars and expanded their reach across countless horizons, humanity would have grown past all of their squabbles and primitive greed. Technology has put what was once incomprehensible within the reach of any citizen. Food can be printed as easy as paper was in centuries past with housing nearly as simple, healthcare is as easy as a simple puff from an inhalant or a new body part from the biotanks, and yet corporations still lock it all behind paywalls. ... more>>

Quiet, reserved, and relatively enjoying his life.... more>>

Kane wasn't really happy when he woke up with a new name, a new face, and to a whole new world.

A world with one big continent, a place where cities are named A through Z, and also where bizarre things happen so often he has no idea how the world hasn’t completely fallen into ruin yet.

Also, things like monsters, evil scientists, giants, zombies, undead lichs, psychics, superheroes, supervillains, cyborgs, and anything else he could think of are a common sight.

And unfortunately as well, most of those things seem to be trying their best to kill him outright or cause mass destruction.

Annoyingly, since he now lives here, he doesn't really have much of a choice but to intervene in hopes of ensuring that he and everyone else in this crazy world can maybe live to see tomorrow.

Thankfully, though much to his utter confusion, he has awakened something called The Ultimate Gacha System. And although it might be a big help to him in his coming battles, it is rather perplexing that the things his system gives him are from animes, shows, games, or movies he has next to no knowledge of…

Despite this, Kane—now Kanagawa—hopes he can achieve some semblance of control while becoming someone he can be proud of in this perilous world.

To start, the Hero Association doesn't sound too bad, because honestly, Kanagawa could easily assume a place where heroes gather couldn’t be completely full of insane people right?

Right?

Great.

Book Two in the Let Chaos Reign storm series ~
Unruly hair aside, the sneaking out and turbulent ride over here seemed overall smoother than usual. Which, in my experience, usually means there is still something that is inevitable to go wrong. If it hasn't already, then it will. Guaranteed. Every. Damn. Time.... more>>

I start to pace, my mind going back through tonight's events, wondering if I might have missed something. Maybe he forgot… I don't know why I think that every time.

This cave is one of the very scarce constants in this landscape of dancing destruction. The Scar is always persistently changing, yet not, the tornados wreaking havoc in their predictably twisting and reckless ways.

The Scar remains a weird kind of maze of canyons and ravines that have been continuously carved by endless parades of swirling pillars of dust, dirt, debris, and anything else that gets caught up in it. Tornadoes dictate the landscape for miles on all sides, some taking the same paths over and over, enough so that mapping them has been a tedious, yet not impossible, task for nearly a full decade now. For the research cartographers and various elders of specific areas of expertise... Not me, specifically.

I'm just a TumbleTech.

The Tumbler is a magnificent little creation that essentially acts as storm debris at the very least, personalized rocket at most, depending on the size of the fuel tank and the kick behind the thrusters on a 360° rotation. Also, it can tow a two-ton wreckage comb like it’s nothing–those handy debris-collecting honey-comb-looking cages the Rovers use to scavenge for treasures of an ancient world. <<less

Sometimes I daydream about epic battles with swords and dragons, well-crafted intrigues between noble families or forbidden rituals performed by witches on a full moon.... more>> /> Occasionally, these stories are part of a larger narrative, divided into many chapters with a beginning, middle and end, which I may post about one day. But for the vast majority of the time, it's an isolated scene in a world yet to be built that I daydream about. These ephemeral snippets, I don't know where to put them for the rest of the world to see. So I'll post them here, and hope you like them.
Thousands of story fragments, talking about hundreds of characters, touching on dozens of different themes. Chaos reigns here, and that's perfectly fine.
In short: the chapters published here are short stories that are generally unrelated. <<less

Then I would go and dream myself all this fantasies in my head.
