Got the Grimoire, Chapter 65
Chapter 65The PRT was already on the scene, a pair of large vans covering the entrance of the hospital with confoam sprayers, both the handheld variety and the vehicle mounted ones. In addition, I spotted a blur making it’s way around the building at regular intervals. Velocity. “What’s the si...
Chapter Delay
Sorry for the late announcement, but the usual weekly chapter won't be out tonight. I just did not have enough time at all this weekend to get much written. I'll do my utmost to get it out tomorrow or Tuesday, but you have my apologies regardless.
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 64
Chapter 64Sunday, April 10, 2011I finished transferring one last charge to Dauntless. “And that’s all for today.”Dauntless flexed one gauntlet and then summoned his Arclance. The already dangerous weapon was now in a league of it’s own, crackling with the potential for violence. I was excite...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 63
Chapter 63I drifted through a familiar void lighted by an endless sea of stars. My transmigrated soul, held together by the gravity of the Celestial Grimoire floating in the center. If my soul was a galaxy, then the Grimoire was the supermassive blackhole that everything orbited around.“Well isn...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 62
Chapter 62Saturday, April 2, 2011I let myself back into my apartment with a small yawn. I’d woken up a little earlier than usual to make Taylor breakfast, all part of my master plan to convince her to go talk to her dad. She’d folded once I’d laid out my arguments and made it clear that I wasn...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 61
Chapter 61Interludes: VariousColin Wallis swung his halberd around in another complex maneuver, relishing in the power singing through his limbs. Ordinarily he’d have to be wearing his power armor in order to swing the weapon with such speed, but thanks to Magu- Mak’s enhancements, he could lift...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 60
Chapter 60 Short answer: Eidolon didn’t suddenly gain control of the Endbringers that day. Longer answer: Due to how strong he already was, even the impressive amount of power granted by his sacrifice wasn’t enough to boost him to the level we wanted. But it sure as hell did give him a power upg...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 59
Chapter 59Taylor cradled her mug, peppermint tea if I smelled right, and shifted nervously in the pajamas that I was pretty sure belonged to Mimi. “I… I don’t really wanna talk about it.”“Tough,” I said. I started to make myself a cup of hot chocolate, then stopped and poured a couple fi...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 58
Chapter 58Wednesday, March 30, 2011“It’s official: I hate paperwork,” Mimi told me flatly as she signed another form. “It’s a stupid pain in my ass. Why does it exist?”“For bureaucracy and administrative purposes. Keep things organized. Or something. I dunno, I don’t really care for ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 57
Chapter 57Finding criminals who were high as a kite or peddling drugs wasn’t the problem. Finding ones who were actual members of the Merchants proved to be an entirely different one.“This will go a lot easier for you if you just talk,” I advised the dealer. “Who are your suppliers? Is it Sk...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 56
Chapter 56Mimi found me slumped over the kitchen island, eyes bloodshot as I kind of just stared out into space. “What the hell happened to you?” she asked. “Oh, just dealing with the moral complexities of life. Also I hid an entire dimension from a god’s sight. Nothing major,” I said dull...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 55
Chapter 55Tuesday, March 29, 2011I woke up with a start, the kind of full body flinch that happens when you just know that you’ve overslept. I checked my phone and sighed in relief when I noticed the text messages.Colin: I saw the news. You’re cleared for a late start.Colin: On second thought, ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 54
Chapter 54“Alright, so where to first?” I asked Eidolon.“Eagleton.”“The Machine Army?” I’d read about them when I’d gotten Protectorate clearance to review S-class threats. I didn’t remember reading about them previously and chalked it up to something that had been expanded upon in...
Chapter Delay
Hey everyone, there may or may not be a chapter this week and it might be delayed at that. Visiting family and it's hard to write and spend time with them at the same time. I'll still do what I can, but figured I'd give you all a heads up.
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 53
Chapter 53Monday, March 28, 2011“Knock knock,” I said cheerfully. I leaned my head into the workshop and glanced around at the ongoing projects and maintenance that Kid Win had going. “How’s it going down here?”Kid Win flinched and looked up from his welding with a wide-eyed look, though t...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 52
Chapter 52The Thinker before me gave an innocent smile that I knew hid a cackling fiend. As much as I loved her, Lisa could be such a little chaos gremlin at times. Meanwhile, Taylor looked embarrassed to be there, clearly out of her element.“Lisa,” I said with a practiced smile. I swear, my eye...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 51
Chapter 51Saturday, March 26, 2011I sighed into my coffee mug as I scrolled through my calendar, seated at the kitchen island and going over my schedule.A peaceful and restful week had been exactly what the doctor ordered. No new villains trying to muscle their way into Brockton Bay. No new S-class ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 50
Chapter 50Ellisburg would have looked like a quaint little town, if it wasn’t for the wall. The PRT’s quarantine consisted of a massive wall of concrete and steel, manned by dozens of troopers with a variety of lethal weapons and several capes in different rotations, a mix of Blasters, Shakers, ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 49
Chapter 49Thursday, March 17, 2011I appreciate this, Raziel, but this is seriously way more than necessary. The Grimoire, as oddly silent as it had been lately, had given me a huge power-up. Sorcery (Libriomancer, 800cp): Well, it’s been a quite some time since one of you came along. You are a tru...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 48
Chapter 48The halls of the hospital were crowded with the injured from the day’s events. I normally would have used my powers to sneak by without a trace, but that could raise undo suspicion on both myself and Lisa. So I dealt with my anxiety has I fidgeted and tapped my fingers restlessly against...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 47
Chapter 47Raziel smiled after his little introduction, clearly expecting some kind of reaction. “Never heard of you,” I said truthfully. “Only named angels I know are Michael and Gabriel. Discounting fictional ones of course.”“Ah yes, you belonged to that silly little sect,” Raziel mused...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 46
Chapter 46Seeing as the day was already completely crap, I wasn’t too surprised to see that Lung was already over ten feet tall and hurling fireballs like free candy at a downtown parade. His form was covered in armor plating and flames poured off of him like liquid, enough to make me question my...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 45
Chapter 45I stepped out into the slightly overcast daylight, already rendered invisible and silent thanks to the always useful Lunatic Eyes. The Empire had arranged their forces in a loose U shape around the outside of PRTHQ, both as a show of force and also to make sure there were no easily identif...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 44
Chapter 44I rolled out of the shadows and straight into the Wards’ common room. I instantly had half a dozen containment foam sprayers pointed at me before I shouted out my Protectorate authorization, causing them to retract.“Magus!” Kid Win nearly fell out of his chair getting to his feet. Th...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 43
Chapter 43Between both of our power sets, Assault and I were able to cross wide swathes of the city in short order, circling around the Bay itself to get to the Docks portion. The Docks was a sad state of affairs, sort of a satellite city and slum rolled into one. It had it’s nicer portions where ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 42
Chapter 42Monday, March 14, 2011I made it back to the Bay just about in time for my shift, walking in with a massive yawn, most of my fatigue only being held back thanks to caffeine and a jolt of magic through my system. Even if I was physically fine, I still felt mentally and more than a little emo...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 41
Chapter 41“You were right, she is pretty cool.”I grunted, too busy reviewing the new power that had been projected into my soul to be paying attention. Greatest of Fairies (Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure, 600cp): It’s never been quite clear how the relationship works, but Fairies seem ...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 40
Chapter 40Once I’d finished writing and sending my report to the Director, I got back to my apartment as quickly as I could. My clone had done his job well, the apartment was at least basically furnished (temporarily) and groceries were at least bought, though untouched. I set about preparations a...
I'm Not a Damn Kryptonian! - 1
1I dreamed of home. What that even meant anymore, I wasn't sure. I just know that as I slept, I felt warm and safe. Clear blue skies. A crowd of people, walking, talking, laughing. The scent of food being prepared. Was it the Viltrum of old that I dreamt of? Before the civil war, before the Grea...
Got the Grimoire, Chapter 39
Chapter 39“Well, how is it?” I asked hopefully. I’d chosen to make a simple meal for the Undersiders. Pan seared salmon, mixed veggies, and a side of rice. Alec accepted his plate with a small nod and ate bites in between respawns of his game. “Not bad,” he said with a small thumbs up. I t...
