Of Noble Intentions - Interlude 1: Ripples
"Rio, you abused your position as the head of Seminar to embezzle funds. Build a very big and fancy place that only you use, kept the whole of Millennium under heavy surveillance… Say, how much do you pay Toki?""I don't?""Corpo spotted. Beginning flatlining protocols."T...

Eternal City, Chapter 5: I Came, I Saw, I Conquered
It was around New Year’s Eve, when I was fourteen. My last year of middle school promised to be more or less identical to the previous ones, that is to say studying and more studying and also many mock tests to prepare us for high school. I had a cordial but distant relationship with my classmates...
Eternal City, Chapter 4: Thus Passes The Worldly Glory
I was born in the countryside. Or, as some of my neighbors who will remain anonymous would say, in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. Not that I was supposed to hear them say so, or that it was socially acceptable for them to state such a strong opinion as opposed to someone who was expected to be prete...
Eternal City, Chapter 3: Fortune Favors the Bold
My sleep during the night is restless, yet I don’t wake up midway nor I still feel tired when I finally open my eyes, though neither do I exactly feel full of energy. I know I dreamed, yet I cannot remember about what: if I concentrate really hard I can vaguely recall a bright white flash, yet tha...
Eternal City, Chapter 2: Seize The Day
“Our story begins more than two thousand and seven hundred years ago, when myths and legends still walked the earth, in the city of Alba Longa. A powerful city-state, it was the cultural and political center of the Latins, one of the many tribes that populated ancient Italy. The rightful king, Num...
Eternal City, Chapter 1: The Beginnings Of All Things Are Small
Someone once said that the past is a foreign country, and people do things differently there. I think it was a British writer who first used said phrase, sixty or so years ago, as the opening of his book. It was a study of the paradox where humans feel alienated from their past, yet are not free fro...

"He broke into school grounds with a mobile stage, dressed in a ridiculous costume, and just started screaming like a maniac about i-i-indecent stuff!""Come on, the local equivalent of an all-girls Catholic school wants me to visit? I just had to put on the old Satan get-up and write som...

"I confess, at the beginning I had doubts about him. Regrettably he proved many of them true."Nanagami Rin====If this was some short-circed gonk's idea of a joke, Johnny wasn't laughing. At all. After all the emotional turmoil, after all the shit he and V went through Johnny finally ...

"To sum it up, I somehow came back to life and became a teacher for multiple all-girls schools.""Whoever decided the latter deserves to have their balls replaced with two faulty grenades.""It was a chick.""Their tits then."Johnny Silverhand and V====They say you can g...

“Amiya, returns as soon as you can. There has been a... situation, with Lelouch.”The Cautus didn’t immediately start running the moment she finished reading the message, but only because she has yet to finish with her tasks. However once that was done, as quickly as possible without appearing ...

‘When did everything... start going so wrong?’ Lelouch panted, feeling his whole body aching as he ran through the subterranean tunnel but not daring to stop. Every new explosion that made the whole structure rattle just added more fuel to his panic, pushing the normally feeble student even hard...
