Show me the wolf could bring down the moon. Nuclear fire for his teeth & magma eyes. Or did the bastard rise out of the sun to prominence?

"You ungrateful little... Why I have more power in m-" said the warlock, before his daughter banished him forever.

The target's firewall found me and spat me out into the real world. My brain hurt. I swore I'd never be a mercenary for warring blogs again.

The wolf grins. "Sweet girl, why are you on the nightpath alone?" I smile with teeth, grip my knife under the red cloak. "Come find out."

"I think our baby is a changeling!" I told my Stepford wife. So I wasn't surprised when my doppelganger showed up and said I had to leave.

Climbing in the gears above the Cosmic Sphere, he pulls the pin that spins the stars in place, falls laughing through the death of Forever.

Always best to bring spare parts on long road trips. Care to ride along? Oh, and what's your blood type again?

The clockwork spire moved upon itself settling on the shapes of children, not deer or duck. We waited. By sundown, villainy filled our pots.

Shoveling dirt into the grave, I recall her face, pretty and peaceful as the lid closed. Surely her expression will change when she wakes?

Patriots swarmed outside Hypatia's firewall. Poisoned IMs read, "Pledge your allegiance." She summoned Archimedes to buy time for backups.

He streched and a dozen servos whined. He breathed and polymer sacs expanded. He ran and hoped this time, maybe, he would actually tire.

Killing the unsanctioned always made his neurojacks itch across all his copies. The stims helped all of him forget. Most nights.

I was pleasantly surprised by the difference a few extra fingers makes, but the amount of blood afterward is a little bit disconcerting.

She tightened the corset laces, crimping gold metal skin and rupturing two grommets and a steam valve. A tinwhistle completed the look.

I married a serial killer. Fortunately, he only murders strangers. But lately we've drifted apart; he said he didn't know me anymore...
