*WARNING VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED* Doyle Medical Complex 9:18 AM"So you finally figured it out," Morrigan said with a cocky grin, "It certainly took you long enough, what finally tipped you off?""The howl heard round the world that scared the Frost Giants into retreating and the fact that he could eat deities."  I explained with a deadpan expression.  "That was probably why the Aesir were so afraid of him; he was the only thing that could end them.""Him or Surtr," Morrigan stated with an interesting look in her eye.  "And did this lead to any other revelations?""You mean that Dame Höllenfeuer is Hel and that Mister Domino is Loki," I wh...

Wings of the Wasteland Chapter One: ColorsMassachusetts was beautiful in the fall. The leaves started to change colors in mid-September and by the time October rolled around the hills and countryside were transformed into a blazing sea of oranges and reds. The green grasses and clear blue skies contrasted the trees perfectly; it made a stunning sight to behold. And people flocked to the area every year to witness nature’s beauty. Nate wasn’t immune to the call of the wild and loved autumn with as much vigor and enthusiasm as the tourists that clogged the roads and skies around the more popular forests. He and Nora took every available chan...

Children appear in the doctors office frequently, reporting minor symptoms of the flu and the common cold.  They may escape from a few meager days of school, sitting at home watching television and drinking ginger ale as they wait for their bodies to rejuvenate.  However, soon enough they are well again and heading back to school where they seem perfectly healthy as before.  These children are very lucky, as the brief illness they carry isn’t something that shall never leave them alone for the rest of their lives.  There’s an end to the flu and to the common cold, and although it does not have a cure,  most people recover from them.  There...

1) Union of Alondra, 50 A.R.Well, here's something of a dystopia. This is the original era that a few of my OCs including a failed luchador wrestler to name one. It's more or less a fantasy type setting, complete with dwarves or elves but with sub-lightspeed space travel, aliens[1], the occasional horrendous civilizational collapse[2] and quite a bit of shiny high tech instead of the "standard" pseudo-medieval, or the increasingly popular IRL gaslamp fantasy type world.Alondra is a typical terraform colony world, with the usual bad government you see in late-stage civilizations. Alondra's location is an arm not that far off from the galaxy...

Exploring Katara & Aang's Mother-Son Connection: Part 2"I don't want to be adored for what I merely represent to you I don't want to be to be your babysitter You're a very big boy now I don't want to be your mother I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months Show me the back door!"(Lyrics: "Not the Doctor" by Alanis Morrissette)Warning: This part of the essay will probably seem VERY anti-Aang because I'm pointing out his immaturity, selfishness, and irresponsibility in vivid detail with examples and contrasting it against Katara's proven maturity, unselfishness, and responsibility to show why Kataang just doesn't work. If this makes you ...

XXIIIChy Charms the Anohachy (Day 163 on Tashoo)    Fortunately, the hike home was just a short four kilometers; otherwise, the dead weight of Chy would have been totally unbearable and I didn’t want Rora to have to explain why he carried a Kootona cub into the village.  We made it past the garden guards and to the house without incident of any kind; however, this would be the one day that Ara decided that she wanted to give me a hand with my Etyma Jivekoo.  I had a devil of a time convincing her that I didn’t need her help without revealing the truth or offending her.  She looked at me funny but, fortunately, I succeeded.  I went to my ro...

PART 5 - The Point Of No Return Warning: This chapter has slightly disturbing content (attempted rape). However, it isn't graphic or descriptive enough for a mature filter. Correct me if I'm wrong, and I will put the filter. Over the following year, the compromise which we established was clear, and a pretty simple one – she would keep stealing under my surveillance, and I would keep her out of the harm’s way. She has never done anything without my consent, and every plan I’ve conceived, she would follow without any complaints. For a short time, I was overlooking her. After a while, I had to let her become more independent. We, the childre...

31 DAYS OF HORROR PART II REVISED EDITION Written by Diane N. Tran 19 - DAVID CRONENBERG FILMS One of the great originators of contemporary "body horror" is David Cronenberg.  It's a mistake to describe "body horror" as mindless blood/gore exploitation films; no, that's not what it is:  It is a the "man into monster" story, which is an exploration of corporal transformation and violation, the graphic destruction or degeneration of the body, to an "unnatural" state, whether scientific or supernatural.  It's not only grotesque and terrifying but beautiful and tragic; it's both physical and the psychological — and, with Cronenberg, always c...

-.-.-.-.-.-Underground-.-.-.-.-.-Luce woke up crumpled against a hard surface, temple aching hard enough to blind. Dull pain. Bad pain. Groaning, he put a hand out and met with more hardness and impenetrable darkness.Something had soaked, quick and cold, through his singlet. His elbows were scraped. He worked his gummed-up eyes open and closed, with no change in his surroundings, then cautiously, groggily groped around in the dark, palms skidding uncomprehendingly across what had to be stone. The only sounds that reached him were a soft, husky noise and a constant dripping. It took reaching forward and nearly bloodying his knuckles on the ...
