Masterlist

It was only ever under the bright white light of the moon that their true forms revealed themselves to you. The pitch black midnight provided them the chance to present themselves as they truly are.

Eddie with his pale skin, red-rimmed dark eyes, and spread of imposing bat-like wings. His wicked smile proudly shows off his two prominent sharp, pearly teeth. A few of his long dark curls had fallen loose from the bun tied at the nape of his neck, framing his pale face. He’d long been drawn to you, the scent of your blood called out to him, a rich, cherry-sweet scent unlike anything he’d ever come across before. His nose would brush against your neck, as his tongue licked over the pulsing veins in your neck, and despite it all, he could never bring himself to sink his teeth in, never wanting you to come to any harm, especially not at his cost.

And Steve, who’s broad shouldered frame is covered in thick coats of soft brown hair, his usual hazel brown eyes now glowed a honeyed golden sparkle in the moonlit dark of the bedroom. Even in his shaggy, wolf-like form there was still something incredibly human about him. The glint in his eyes that lets you know that underneath it all, he was still just your Stevie, and nothing could ever change that.

Maybe the way that you three came together each night wasn’t the conventional thing that was expected of three young adults living together in a small and quiet town like Hawkins but somehow you managed to make your rather unconventional situation work.

Most people wouldn't look twice at your boys in the harsh light of day. Steve in his usual look of light wash denim and striped polo shirts, a normal everyday outfit for the common man in Hawkins. And Eddie clad in his typical garb of some metal band's tour t-shirt, black leather jacket and black ripped jeans leading down to an old pair of tattered dark DMs was a look that most people turned their nose up at with a scoff. 

So yeah, mostly the residents of Hawkins, Indiana paid no mind to the two polar opposite boys who roamed their streets.

No. It wasn't until the sun dawned down each evening that your boys came out to play.

Being pinned between their two monstrous bodies was something that you welcomed. The touch of the supernatural was unlike anything you’ve ever felt before. 

It started out as a typical night, with you in bed relaxingly cuddled against the warm, soft hairs of Steve’s chest, fingers absentmindedly playing with his soft brown coat. Your head resting against him, listening to the steady beat of his heart, his chest rising and falling with every breath.

In stark contrast to the warmth you feel lying next to Steve, you feel Eddie’s presence sidling up beside you. The ice cold touch of his hand coasting up your arm as he leans in to press kisses along your collarbones, you feel his smirking smile against your skin as you shiver under his affections.

Eddie’s button-tipped nose is buried in the crook of your neck, inhaling the scent of you with a deep breath, before pressing one more cold kiss just underneath your ear. 

Steve wasn’t blind to what Eddie was trying to do, in fact he all but encouraged the vampire’s quest to arouse you. Steve quietly chuckled to himself as he felt you slyly trying to grind yourself naked body into his hairy thigh where your legs were tangled with his under the bed covers.

"Well would you look at that.." Steve's deep voice rumbles out "..it would seem as though our mate is getting a little squirmy from all those kisses your giving her, Munson" 

"Indeed it would, Harrington. How about we do something about that, huh pretty girl?" Eddie asks you, his voice a low raspy whisper beside your ear.

You lift yourself from the soft comfort of Steve's chest to nod your head. 

"I'm gonna need you to use your words, Sweet Thing." Eddie purrs out, ever the tease.

You nod your head once more

"Yes please.." you breathed.

"Always so polite.." Eddie smiles. He looks over to Steve and gives him a subtle nod of his head, which Steve understands right away, as his massive hands gently man-handle you into a position where you’re sat on the bed, with your body relaxing back against his soft furry chest, your head leaning against his shoulder.

Steve’s large hands are pawing at your exposed chest, squishing the soft flesh of your boobs under his rough touch. His fingers eagerly toying with your nipples, rolling each one between the calloused tips of his fingers. His lips hungrily sucks dark marks against your skin, trailing his kisses up the side of your neck.

“Hold her open, Wolfie.” Eddie commands Steve teasingly, knowing how much Steve hated Eddie’s affectionate nick-name for him. 

Steve’s hands immediately skate down the sides of your body, his nails leaving light scratch marks as he does. His big hands settle themselves on the soft skin of the inside of your thighs before spreading them and holding them open.

Eddie stands up and makes his way over to where you're so tantalisingly spread out for him. Stalking the room, his dark eyes never leaving your exposed frame.

You watch his movements with anticipation. There’s a delicious heat that warms through you as you watch how he lewdly spits in his palm before dropping his hand down and teasing his cock in slow strokes, his thumb swiping over the mess of pooling pre-cum gathering at the tip as his fist strokes upwards making sure to glide over the prominent vein that runs the underside of his length.

"Don’t worry Pretty Girl, I'm going to make you feel real good, real soon" Eddie promised. "Just gonna let Harrington have his moment with you first, you know he's gotta stretch you out to get you ready for me"

You feel the insistent press of Steve's cock at your back and all too quickly you're reminded of why he has to stretch you out. In his human form Steve was not small by any shred of the imagination, but with enough prep and slow, gentle movements from both parties you could take him.

However, in his humanoid-wolf hybrid form it was a different story. Everything about him was bigger, in every sense of the word. Of course you’d tried to take him, so desperate to feel the stretch of him inside you, but it would be a while before you could accommodate the press of his thick length in your tight wet heat. For now you had settled on a happy medium of being opened up by the rough and calloused touch of Steve’s fingers.

Starting with only one of his fingers, carefully teasing his way around your pussy, gathering the wetness on the pads of his fingertips before drawing it up and rubbing on your clit in tight circles. His thick finger slips back down and slowly inches inside you, just letting you adjust to the feeling of his finger for a moment before he begins to thrust in and out of you.

Your head falls back against his chest whimpering quiet little moans into the crook of his neck.

“Aw, is Stevie making you feel good, Sweetheart?” Eddie’s voice taunts, a slight tone of condescension as he watches Steve slip another one of his fingers inside you, working them in and out of your wet cunt.

Steve noses into your hair, deeply inhaling the sweet scent of your shampoo, little gruff whines of approval falling from his lips as he feels you tighten around his fingers.

"That's it…There's my good girl, gonna come from me, aren’t you, Sweet Thing?" Steve growls against your skin, his sharp teeth nipping little marks against your neck.

You whine and babble incoherently as Steve continues to thrust his fingers and rub your clit in quick circles, holding you close to his body. 

Your orgasm rushes over you, clenching and pulsing against Steve’s thick fingers with a wet gush.

Steve gently rubs over your clit as tenderly as he can with his big pawing hands, helping you to come down from the high of your orgasm.

“There she is, my good girl…So sweet and pretty..” Steve breathes against your neck in-between placing tender to your skin.

“Think you mean our girl, Harrington. Thought you wolves were all about sharing with the rest of your pack, huh.” Eddie teases from where he’s sat on the edge of the bed, his dark brown almost black eyes scarcely tearing away from your steadily breathing frame. His long fingers are still slowly stroking over the length of his cock, keeping himself hard and ready just for you.

“You ready for me, Angel?” he asks, all too cocksure of the fact that you were never going to give him an answer short of a shy nod of your head and a breathy whine of ‘please’. 

“I’m ready please, Eddie..I just want to feel you..” you plead desperately, which earns you a rumbling chuckle from the vampire above you.

"Well since you asked so nicely, who am I to deny such a request?" Eddie smiles broadly, bearing his pearly fangs to you.

He leans his head between your spread legs, where Steve’s big strong hands hold you open, and places one soft, solitary kiss against your clit before sweeping his tongue the length of your pussy, slurping up glistening wetness.

"You know I can never resist getting a taste of your sweet cunt, my Darling" he purrs “..but it’s only fair that Wolfie here gets to have a taste too..” before leaning over your shoulder and bringing Steve close with a cold hand snaked around the back of his neck, his long fingers tugging into the soft strands of Steve's scruffy hair. Eddie presses his lips against Steve’s, his tongue slipping between his fangs to allow Steve to taste the sweetness of your juices in a heated and passionate kiss.

An appreciative growling hum resonates from the wolf as he licks his lips when Eddie pulls away from him.

“Always so sweet for us, Pretty girl..” Steve praises, making you beam under his affections.

“Oh! Does our pretty girl like being praised for being a good girl?” Eddie notes as he takes in the way you shy away into the crook of Steve’s neck.

Eddie hooks his finger under your chin, gently tilting your face up, forcing you to look at him.

You shyly nod your head, your words failing you as you’re pinned between these two supernatural beings.

“Well since you’re being such a good girl for us, then I guess it’s only fair that Eddie gets to feel you come for him the way I did.” Steve tells you, his fingers running back up your body to toy with your nipples.

With one more breathy whimper of ‘Please’ falling from your lips Eddie takes his cock in his hand and begins to sink himself into you inch by inch.

Eddie rolls his hips into you, filling you so completely every time he thrusts into you. The cold touch of his fingertips make you shiver as they sink into the warm, soft flesh of your thighs.

Steve takes his opportunity to snake one of his hands down your body to rub circles over your sensitive clit.

“Keep that up Harrington, she’s squeezing me so tight, she feels like a fuckin’ dream” Eddie praises as he continues to rut his hips into you, hitting against that spot inside you that has a flaring heat building in your stomach.

The lewd sounds of Steve’s growled kisses against your neck, Eddie’s sloppy thrusts as he chased his orgasm, and your own whining whimpers resound in the otherwise quiet bedroom.

It didn’t take much more than a few sharp thrusts from Eddie hitting so deeply inside you and Steve’s pawing hands rubbing your clit with just the right amount of pleasure that you were coming around Eddie’s cock. Your orgasm shuddering through your body.

With the way your walls were squeezing him so tightly Eddie buried himself deep inside you once more before he was filling you with the hot spurts of his release.

Taking a moment to gather yourselves, Eddie slowly pulls himself out of your tight wet heat with a hiss of sensitivity.

Steve pulls your body back to his, wrapping his arm around your shoulder, and placing a sweet kiss to the crown of your head.

“Did so well for us sweetheart.” Steve praises once more.

“I love you, you know that, right? Both of you?” you say, looking between the two creatures.

“Yeah we know you do, sweetheart, we love you too.” Steve smiles “Now, you get your blood-sucking ass over here, Munson. I’ve got two arms for a reason.” he smirks, gesturing to the other empty space in the large bed.

Eddie slinks over to the bed, sidling up to Steve, and for the rest of the night that’s how you two spend your time together. You and Eddie snuggled into the soft warmth of Steve’s chest, falling into a relaxed and easy sleep.

Season 1 Rewatch The Witch

Ok I love this episode for many reasons, even though none of the mythology it sets up sticks, it has such a goosebumps / are you afraid of the dark vibe.

1. Joyce & Buffy Dynamic: Joyce is probably one of my top 10 TV depictions of a mom and this episode really showcases why. She and Buffy have such a difficult relationship and it is so real. Buffy has been kicked out of school, not just for fighting but for burning down a building. They had to move towns and start over, and while Joyce is understandably hard on Buffy as a result, none of this inspires her to be more involved in Buffy’s life. Even when Buffy tries to engage her mom and get her attention, Joyce falls short. It sets up so much of what we need to know about these two: the disappointment, the disconnection, and the distrust that will be expanded upon in later seasons. Buffy loves her mom and Joyce is ultimately a great person, but she’s a flawed mother who, like all the adults in Buffy’s life, lets her down again and again. These tiny moments where we see Joyce doubt Buffy and create distance between them set up so many of Buffy’s choices in later seasons (running away, being jealous of Dawn, never really forgiving Giles.)

2. Buffy’s Cheerleading Skills: I am lowkey obsessed with the fact that Buffy, a girl with super strength who can backflip and cartwheel and decapitate vampires, only makes first alternate on the Sunnydale cheer squad. It just highlights how out of sync Buffy is. She wants to be the girl she was pre-slayer but has lost the confidence that girl had. She’s also lost the ability to be blind to the things that girl was blind to.

3. Cordelia in this episode is truly everything. She looks stunning. She delivers some scathing lines. The whole sequence where Amy knocks her over during auditions is perfection.

4. Foreshadowing: I know this is a stretch but Xander makes a reference to a railroad spike through the head. I wonder if this throwaway line inspired a certain someone’s backstory in season 2.

spuffy fic rec

figured all the time i spend scouring EF and ao3 might be useful to someone!

part 1 - part 2 - part 3

Scooby Crew, Where Are You? by Twinkles [9k]

In a not comics-compliant post-series universe where spuffy have been reunited and everyone else is drifting apart, chaos drops by for a visit. Or a nefarious scheme. I guess we'll find out XD

To Apprehend Air by Quinara [19k]

Two days after LMPTM, Spike's soul is stolen. But that's OK; they can get it back, right? Simple. How hard is it to hop dimensions, anyway? Or storm a castle…

Wild and Wonderful by solstice [23k]

Dawn is nine and three quarters. She is resilient, strange and sharp as a tack. She's a credit to her big sis. But she's just been kidnapped by one of the most notorious vamps of all time - Drusilla. Things look bad. Enter Spike, her very unlikely hero. Spike's relationship with Drusilla has been on the rocks since the Acathala debacle and the morsel in the crate is her double-edged gift to him: a chance to make things right, and a chance to be really bad. Kill the girl and make it hurt. But for some reason he. just. can't. Instead, he tosses the niblet into the trunk of his Desoto and hits the road, leaving his one hundred year relationship in tatters, and grinding his reputation into the dust. Buckle your seat belts nice and tight. We're in for a bumpy ride.

World Enough, and Time by toooldforthis [23k]

“You came back wrong,” he told her, all those years ago. He was right, but it took them a very long time to realise exactly what that meant. It meant a hundred more apocalypses, a thousand battles. It meant a journey, a prophecy, a war. They’d lose one other, and find their way back, and choose, again and again. And all the while, the earth was failing. There are a lot more people than you think who are here for the long haul – like, the really long haul. This is a story about two of them.

Once You Eliminate the Impossible by yellowb [30k]

Icelandic noir. Inspector Summers of the Reykjavik police force has finally got her big chance: she’s in charge of a murder case.

sometimes enough by taxicab12 [35k]

“Tell me everything,” Willow said, not sounding particularly like she’d been asleep. “Are his friends cool?” Buffy blinked. “Some of them. There was this one British guy—” “Ooh, accents, hot.” “—who wouldn’t stop staring at my boobs,” she finished. “Ew, men, gross.” “Spike,” Buffy said with a scoff. “What kind of name is that?” Or, Buffy falls in love and in love and in love. For some reason, life keeps happening anyway

ever waiting airports (full of the love that you deserve) by womanaction [41k]

Buffy catches up with Riley's helicopter, solving one problem and introducing a host of others. How is she supposed to rebuild their crumbling relationship in the face of an angry hellgod out for blood, an emotional teenage sister who spent millennia as a glowing ball of energy, and a weirdly helpful vampire? Season 5 rewrite from "Into the Woods" on.

GTFO by Girlytek [54k]

Spike doesn’t take the extra hundred bucks to be the decoy. Ethan doesn’t hang around to gloat. With the Initiative on their tail (just a little one), and Ethan needing a good being killed, Spike and Fyarl-Giles get out of town. There’s nothing like a road trip to put your demons in perspective.

Care by Sigyn [72k]

While under her Will Be Done spell, Willow just happened to say “I don’t care about anything,” and as a result, wanders blithely off as a vengeance demon. Spike and Buffy are left to protect a threatened Xander and a blind Giles while under the effect of a powerful love charm. But all is not happy in paradise – they’re still constantly fighting, and Angel is determined to end the spell they’re under. In a desperate attempt to collect the tattered remains of all their lives, ex-watcher Wesley Windham-Pryce is called in to try and play marriage counselor between the vampire and the slayer.

The Soul Lies Down by the_moonmoth [73k]

"As a child, I used to dream of a man in black and white, spinning in the desert like a dervish, sword flashing in the moonlight as he danced with death." Dawn travels back in time to save the vampire who saved her life. It's not purely out of sentiment, though -- the fate of the world is at stake (again) and somehow Spike is at the center of events. If only he can stay on the right side of Buffy. A sequel to Angearia's "Fin Amour".

Summer’s Lease by Iamblichus [86k]

Buffy thought it would be just another night of slaying lame-ass campus vampires, but one green demon, some unexpected help from Spike, and a spurt of fluorescent blood later, she finds that her world has acquired a novel complication.

Indigo Overture by Rikki_oko [119k]

Spike's just a drummer, content to live in lead singer Angel's shadow. But when a certain blonde strolls in on Angel's arm, will Spike be content to take the backseat forever? Loosely based on the eighties song, Jesse's Girl.

[marshemillow]

Purity culture is still annoying me, so here are some Oblivion things I find more concerning than, "Do you happen to know what the fine is here in Cyrodiil for necrophilia?";

The implication that the count of Cheydinhal commissioned the dark brotherhood to kill his own wife, and that's the real reason why he puts up with their sanctuary in his city.

The fact that the Mythic Dawn cult is so realistic as a real cult that it makes me wonder if any writers on the team were ex-cult members themselves.

The size of the rats.

That guy in the shivering isles who asks you to kill him.

The hill of suicides.

Actually, everything about the shivering isles is severely fucked up.

The fact that reading the elder scrolls enough to comprehend them LITERALLY MAKES YOU GO BLIND???

Every word that comes out of Glarthir's mouth.

The implication that Rufio raped a woman and then murdered her for not holding still.

"Rat Ragu with powdered deer penis!!!"

The skooma den full of people who are so addicted to skooma that they can drink and talk at the same time. (?????)

The racist countess of Leyawiin who has a dedicated torture chamber in her castle for torturing argonians and khajits.

The whole story aspect of vampires going more and more insane from starvation because they can't die of starvation so they just have to suffer constantly if they don't feed and it just makes people kill them on sight because of how dangerous they are when they're starving.

The grey prince BEGGING you to kill him after he finds out his father was a vampire.

That one slop job that pays 2 gold a week??? Like??? Seriously??? That's just INSULTING!!!

Masterlist

You were the bad one.

Of course you were. You always had been. From the moment you got left in the wood. From the moment you got yourself kidnapped, you became the bad one.

Isabella Marie Swan was your older sister. Well, your adoptive older sister. Yeah you were adopted because she wanted a sibling but her parents didn't want to have any sexual relation so they took you from the orphanage near by. You and Bella used to love each other growing up, you were two years younger than her and you admired her a lot. She loved you. But you changed. You weren't the cute little Y/n anymore no. Now all you wanted to do was to kill her. Was it out of jealousy ? You didn't know. Maybe it was, but who cares anyways ?

The day you got kidnapped you were in the woods, then you felt two strong and cold arms around your waist and the next thing you knew, you were turned into a monster. A blood-drinking creature with bright red eyes and sharp teeth. You were pale, beautiful, ethereal even, comparable to a Goddess.

But you were the Devil.

And a mistake. Your creator thought you were dead when they left your body in the middle of wood. So you learned how to survive alone, in a world where people hated you. As a human you were hated because you were a monster, a Cold One and as a vampire you were hated as an immortal child. At first you didn't know what you were. But a couple of rogue vampires wanting your death was enough for you to understand that you couldn't rely on anyone but yourself.

After seven years, you got a hand of your power, giving you a full immortal life that many dreamed of. You couldn't be burnt by fire, the very same thing that could kill any vampire, didn't affect you in anyways. If anything, it would listen to your order and execute them. Some would say it was a curse, some would say you got blessed. You thought of it as a weapon to defeat your sister once for all.

And for two more years you planned your revenge on Isabella Marie Swan. If she wanted to have a sibling so badly why move on so easily ? Why would she replace you for this weird golden eyed cult of pity excuse of vampires and some dogs ? Honestly, did she even care about you ? Did she ever wondered what you were doing while she was out, having a blast with her vampire husband and her weird hybrid daughter ? Exactly. She didn't care. Or at least she didn't care anymore since she had found some other people.

Were you jealous ? Yes, definitely. What did this freak vampire family have that you didn't ? You were more special, you were more interesting. When you were younger Isabella couldn't stop gushing over how talented and intelligent you were. But when you felt like you finally belonged somewhere, all your hopes, your dreams, got crushed down because of that family.

Was I talking about the Cullens ? You wish I was. You may hate them, they may have stolen your sister's attention away from you, they may have been some other super annoying side characters that were only there to support main lead Isabella, but they weren't worthy of the main villain's attention.

Was your silly jealousy really the reason you wanted Isabella Maria Swan to be dead, burned by your flames ? No, hell no it wasn't. But you were the villain. No one needed to hear any reason because you were blinded by rage right ? You weren't thinking rationally because you were the villain. Any reason for being evil was always stupid or just egoist, right ?

After all, you were the villain of her story.

So why not embrace your role already ?

It was supposed to be a normal day in the Cullen's house. They were finally at peace. And the last time their family was so peaceful was around a year ago, when the Volturi came to end them because they thought that Renesmee was an immortal child but discovered that she was just a very interesting immortal being, being an hybrid, so they didn't get any chance to take Alice and Edward back in Volterra with them.

A pity honestly. The Volturi would have been some good villains in Renesmee's life stories if they had succeed. After all, everyone needs a good villain to spice up their life story and who is better than the sadistic Vampire's royalty themselves to play the villain in your story ?

Exactly, no one was better than them for this cast.

But this wasn't about Renesmee's life story right now. SM had already a whole plan for the hybrid who got a pedophile werewolf as her future mate. No no, right now It was about Bella's life story. She was the main character. Yet again, we all know the poor clumsy human turned into a beautiful super powerful shield vampire who is now super badass as a main lead. And what comes to the main lead ?

Trouble.

How did they know that Bella was in trouble ? Simple. There was a doll at their doorstep. A burning doll who looked just like Bella and four words.

"'Beware of me Bells', no seriously, who did you get in trouble with again ?" Leah asked and everyone stayed silenced.

"I don't even know. It can't be the Volturi, Alice would have seen it. Victoria is dead, Laurent is dead, we killed James. I don't have anyone that could want me dead !" Bella groaned.

"We're gonna be safe right ?" A ten year old looking Renesmee asked and her grandfather shook his head.

"Yes, sweetie. We will find who sent this and then what shall be done will be done." Esme calmly replied standing by her husband's side.

"It just does make sense ! Bella did nothing..." Alice trailed and her eyes turned glassy, causing everyone's attention to be on her.

There was silence and then Edward's eyes widened in horror, seeing his sister's vision.

Everyone was in flames.

Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, Edward, Esme, Carlisle, Seth, Leah, Jacob, Renesmee.

All of them.

But Bella.

Surrounded by endless fire, there was one small figure that stood in the middle of the chaos. They were facing the burning trees, a headless body burning at their feet. And then they turned around. Their face was hidden by a hood and their small hands were holding Bella's bodiless head. The only feature that stood out was their burning palms and their red eyes.

The flames took over Bella's head before the stranger let it go on the ground.

And the flames burned brighter, stronger, taking over the stranger's body and they stood their ground. Letting the flames burn their pale stone skin before that the whole place lights up on fire.

And then a flash of red eyes.

Gasping for unneeded air, Alice gripped Jasper's arms tightly before that dry sobs escaped her lips. The seer hid her face in her lover's chest as he was trying to calm her down. But it was useless.

The family turned toward Edward, in hope to have some answer that Alice could obviously not give them at the moment, only to meet Edward's terrorised expression.

"We're all going to die..." He trailed off looking at everyone dead in the eyes before locking his eyes with Carlisle.

"And there is no escape this time."

Chapter 1

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Imagine: “House of Ashes”, but as a full-length game along the lines of “The Quarry” and “Until Dawn”

1) THE PLAYABLE CAST

a. Kurum and Balathu are still the prologue/false protagonists

b. The 5 leads return (Eric King, Jason Kolchek, Rachel King, Nick Kay, Salim Othman)

c. 3 additional playable characters: Nathan Merwin, Clarice Stokes, Dar Basri

NOTE: Just like all Supermassive games, everyone has a chance to live or die, depending on choices made by the player(s)

2) THE 10 CHAPTERS

0: Prologue (Ancient Sumeria)

1-2: Introduction to the main cast and the encounter between the U.S. Marines and the Iraqi Republican Guard.

3: Falling into the temple

4-5: The main characters start exploring the temple and realize just how bad their situation is

6-7: The survivors are forced to work together when they’re chased away by the Vampires. Chapter 7 ends with the “survive the assault” sequence.

8. The survivors make their way down to the lowest level, where the Vampire/Alien nest is

9-10: Showdown with the Vampire Aliens (escaping the temple and the eclipse)

3) SURVIVABILITY/PLAYABILITY OF EACH PROTAGONIST

a. Kurum and Balathu will die regardless of the choices made. How they die, the other in which they die, and who returns as the Ancient One depends on the choices made by the player(s).

b. Clarice and Merwin have the least amount of playability and the most chances to die. Pretty much once the cast falls into the temple, Clarice and Merwin can die in every chapter they appear in. Also, they have the least amount of playability since they’re the most expendable of the cast. Think of Clarice and Merwin as the equivalent of Matt and Jessica in “Until Dawn”.

c. Eric and Nick’s survivability is tied together. In this new version, the player(s) can choose between Eric and Nick when it comes to saving Rachel with the rope. If both Eric and Nick survive, the story will continue as normal. If either Eric or Nick die, then the other is guaranteed plot armor until the final chapter. This is because Eric or Nick is needed to plant the bombs in the alien nest.

d. The earliest that Rachel and Jason can be killed off is Chapter 7 (the Gatling gun sequence). In this new version, either Rachel and Jason can be killed off during this chapter. If either Rachel or Jason die, then the other is guaranteed plot armor until the final chapter. This is because Rachel or Jason is needed to go on a life-changing journey with one of the Iraqi main protagonists.

e. The earliest that Salim and Dar can be killed off is Chapter 7 (survive the assault). But if either Salim or Dar die in Chapter 7, then the other is guaranteed to move on to chapters 8-10 due to the storyline. See above for Rachel and Jason’s survivability.

4) HOW THE FINAL 3 CHAPTERS CAN TURN OUT

If the player(s) have been making choices that led to the least amount of survivors going into the final 3 chapters, then only THREE main characters will be left:

1) Rachel or Jason. At least one of them needs to be alive to fulfill the role of the “ignorant American who is forced to partner up with the Iraqi soldier”.

2) Eric or Nick. At least one of them needs to be alive to fulfill the role of the one who plants the bombs in the hive.

3) Salim or Dar. At least one of them needs to be alive to fulfill the role of the “Iraqi soldier who has no choice but to rely on the ignorant American”.

So you can end up with the original game’s group (Jason allies with Salim, Nick plants the bombs) or something completely different (Rachel allies with Dar, Eric plants the bombs).

Side note: The American/Iraqi dynamic depends on who was teamed up with who.

* Jason and Salim relate to each other as soldiers who don’t really believe in their cause.

* Jason and Dar realize they’ve both been acting ignorant and that their hatred is blinding them to the real danger.

* Rachel and Salim relate to each other as broken people dealing with marital problems.

* Rachel and Dar relate to each other as leaders who just want to keep their people safe.

5) FANCAST (since Until Dawn and The Quarry feature prominent actors)

Ashley Tisdale as Rachel King

Nick Tarabay as Salim Othman

Charlie Cox as Eric King

Michael B. Jordan as Nick Kay

Ben Barnes as Jason Kolchek

Lewis Tan as Nathan Merwin

Katie McGrath as Clarice Stokes

Amr Waked as Dar Basri

6) MISCELLANEOUS

* The game’s equivalent to the Psychiatist and Eliza Vorez is the CIA Agent. The CIA agent is interrogating the player due to the fact that the CIA is trying to cover up the existence of aliens. Just for fun, let’s say the CIA Agent is played by Sigourney Weaver.

* Just like in the original game, if Jason is teamed up with Salim/Dar, then Rachel is infected. The same is in reverse (Rachel teams up with Salim/Dar, Jason is infected).

* Possible achievement: A Good Night for Iraq (only Salim and Dar survive)

* Possible achievement: Ladies Night (only Rachel and Clarice survive)

Appreci-May-tion entry #2!

Prompt: poetry

Original work by @spagyricqueen "The Quest For Dawn"

A little summary (spoilers ahead):

Astarion and Tav began their quest for Astarion to walk in the sun again and find an artifact called the "dawnshard". Unfortunately, this dawnshard rendered Astarion blind, yet over time cured him of his vampirism. First, he was able to walk in the sun, cross rivers and walk into homes, then years later completely cured. After his cure, Astarion heard the news from his wife that she's pregnant.

Game asks: 5, 9, 14, 22 😁✨

Thank you, love!

5. Game(s) coming out that you’re looking forward to

First of all, Dragon's Dogma 2! It coming out in this year's March was such a delightful surprise. The original game from a decade or so ago was really interesting and in many ways innovative, though it has remained pretty obscure to larger audiences. Even I came across it pretty much by chance.

It's not that I mind the recent trend of tactical/isometric RPGs (though I've never been that big a fan of turn-based, as someone who grew up on the OG Infinity Engine games, RWP all the way), but an open-world action-adventure is still a welcome change (Starfield, bless its heart, doesn't count). I've also never been into the JRPG genre, but DD is an interesting case because while it's a Japanese production, it doesn't feel like a JRPG, aesthetically or otherwise.

Anyway, feast your eyes on the latest trailer!

There are others that I'm looking forward to as well, like Awoved, Broken Roads, Star Wars: Outlaws, and Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 (though with the developmental weirdness and the complete overhaul of the entire concept of the game that followed, I'm more cautiously curious than excited now). But realistically, I only expect one or two of them to actually come out this year.

Oh, and there are some cool visual novels coming out that I'm looking forward to as well, like Made Marion (currently in Early Access with Robin's route already playable), Call Me Under (which I hope has avoided the issues the studio's last two games, Errant Kingdom in particular, had), Imperial Grace, Tenebrae, and When Stars Collide.

9. A game you played completely blind with no prior knowledge of and enjoyed/loved

Huh. It's pretty rare for me to go in completely blind, though I usually don't go out of my way to look things up either as the joy of discovery is a big thing for me. But... I guess I could say the first Dragon's Dogma? I did not have many expectations, and while it wasn't the most brilliant thing ever and had some frustrating mechanics, it was super enjoyable (until the endgame bits ugh, but that's a me issue I guess).

Oh, and Enderal, of course! It's safe to say I Had No Idea What I Was In For.

14. A song that’s sure to hit your nostalgia buttons

Hah, how nostalgic do we want to get? Though a song specifically narrows things down a little, hmm.

Honestly, the first one to start playing in my head was Malukah's gorgeous Beauty of Dawn for The Elder Scrolls Online, but my brain also protests because a ten-year-old game is apparently not old enough for it to count as nostalgic. 😂

Something really old, then? How's A Pirate I Was Meant To Be? 😎

22. A game ending that’s really stuck with you

Well. The thing is, I'm apparently chronically allergic to finishing games. It's not that I lose interest, exactly, I guess I just don't like things to end or something? So I'm basically what you might call the complete antithesis of a speedrunner, I have to do literally everything else first and I often find myself loading an older save if I feel like the main quest is proceeding too fast (depending a little on the type of game, of course). 😅

So this is a bit of a challenge for me. Also, endings are tough in any media from a writing standpoint, truly satisfying and impactful endings are difficult to pull off.

But... even though I haven't technically finished it, I think I have to say Enderal. I mean, there are several possible endings, but they're all emotionally impactful, make sense, and will haunt you for a long time afterwards (as does the entire game, really).

Talk to me about video games?

[veebs-hates-video-games]

Time for another installment of a couple games that irritated me and a couple that are good actually. Or maybe it's the first installment of that? I'm not keeping track.

Ori and the Blind Forest went on sale incredibly cheap, and I had been meaning to try it out for a while, so I finally did. It looks great, it sounds great, and I was enjoying the exploration part of it, but the combat is meh at best. I could've gotten over that probably, but the checkpoint system where you have to manually make your own if you ever want to save just does not work for me. I'm either going to forget to make one forever because ADHD and then lose half an hour of progress or waste resources making them way too often, or what actually ended up happening was saving in a room with only one exit that was full of things that could kill me with a single hit, having to retry several times before finally making it through, and then just giving up when the next room needed some annoying timing for stuff and not wanting to reload over and over some more.

Shovel Knight also went on sale incredibly cheap, this time on the 3DS, which I didn't even know it existed on. I was Concerned because I've bounced off so many Critically Acclaimed 2D platformers and metroidvanias lately (aside from Ori there's also been stuff like Celeste and Hollow Knight and something else I'm forgetting), but it turns out it's great and I genuinely enjoy playing it. I'm not super far in it because I keep getting distracted by other stuff, but so far it's a lot of fun and clearly made by people who are intimately familiar with NES-era platformers and what made them look and feel the way they did...which everyone already knew several years ago, but I just got around to it now.

Diablo 3 is...frustrating in a way that is itself also frustrating. As someone who's spent over 2000 hours on Grim Dawn over the past several years, it's safe to say I can get really into ARPGs when they click for me, and people have been comparing Grim Dawn, Diablo 3, and Path of Exile for years. The general consensus I've picked up is that Diablo 3 has waaay less depth and build variety than the other two, but people seem to think it has the most polished gameplay. After playing it a bit I'm not sure why they think that, because it doesn't feel like a revolutionary new level of polish, just like Torchlight 2.5 if Runic had a bigger budget to work with. It does do some things well, but as someone who's never really liked any of the Diablo games, the baggage this carries with it from trying to be a followup to Diablo 2 is ultimately going to be what makes me stop playing, possibly very soon. I could go on at great length about every little thing that's annoyed me while playing (and I have on Discord), but the short version is that I understand why there are people who like it while also being completely unable to myself. I may complain in greater detail later (or just copy stuff from Discord with light editing), but for now I'll just leave it at this.

Diablo 2: Resurrected will be a very brief entry. It was significantly cheaper to get D3 bundled with D2R than it was to get D3 by itself, so I seem to have ended up with both. I was expecting to play it for a few hours and be reminded of why I kind of hated it when I was younger, but it was not to be. The opening cutscene is genuinely great and reminded me of why Blizzard used to be known for having particularly high quality pre-rendered cutscenes, but as soon as it got to the main menu it shat itself repeatedly and failed to connect to Battle.net. Which it needs to do to play offline. On the Switch. Well, at least I got a discount on D3 for failing to play D2R, and as a bonus I got to watch a good cutscene for a few minutes. And now I get to have that 8 GB of space on my SD card back.

Vampire Survivors gets to show up in another post, so that's nice. I'd been taking a break from it for a couple months, but this week I got inspired to go back and finish up some of the stuff I didn't do before. Still such a great game. I'm about 80% done now, and I keep finding new silly things I didn't expect or coming up with increasingly broken and/or nonsensical build ideas I haven't tried before. It's not always the kind of thing I'm in the mood for, but when it is it does what it does so well.

[herdsworldbuilding]

lets find out how well I can condense world building.

this is a challenge for me as I tend to ramble.

The world of Day and Night. Aka

The Dragon Sorceress.

On a World with a day and night cycle that is 48 hours long.

With a day and a night being around 24 hours each with roughly 2 to 3 hours of dawn and dusk, every cycle.

the world has an eastern and a western hemisphere which their own associated continents.

Most creatures have two variants of themselves. One that is is nocturnal usually these creatures only interact with each other during dawn or dusk.

Humans are no exception to this.

The world’s population is made up of humans (diurnal) and vampires (nocturnal) who both make up the majority of the worlds population.

The only real distinction between the two groups are sleeping habits, some minor physical difference (vampires have fangs and better night vision) and the eye colors

Humans have the eye colors you are probably familiar with: browns, blues, grays, blacks and greens. And albinism causes pink/red eyes,Humans have the widest array of eye color but also the dullest eye colors comparatively.

Vampires have eye colors of brown, black, reds, pinks, orange, and yellows. Albinism causes purple/blue eyes. Vampires can also drink blood, it’s not necessary for them but when they do so they gain a physical boost, either in their strength, stamina, or speed. The more compatible the blood is for the vampire the stronger the effect.

It said that the eyes are the windows in to the souls and in this world that is somewhat true.

Though there are other “races” as well.

The main way to tell these groups apart from the humans in the vampires is also by the color and shape of their eye.

The major groups are:

1. Dria: can have any color eye of a human or vampire, but their eyes whites are dark instead of white. This does affect the vision.

They are known as the darklings, night children said to be the opposite of the Nephling. Their power is born from fire because of this they’re sometimes called fire witches, but they’re not true witches.

They like Nephilim are sometimes randomly born among humans or vampire parents, even though they have no known Dria previously in the family, but usually they are born if they already have a dria as a parent.

Abilities, fire related abilities with three different rankings

1. Are immune to fire and limited control of existing flames.

2. Can control, fire and unique ways.

3. Can create fire in unique ways.

Can learn other magics and are able to use sorcerer stones, but rarely do so.

2. Nephlins: the blind eyed angels. they are not blind, but their irises are light-blue, blue-gray, gray, or other pale colors, but many are considered to have white eyes. many of them have white hair.

They are also called the nobles. These are creatures who rightly deserve their names. Born much like the Dria through human parents and they film. Keep the world safe in times of darkness. They are also called sky witches, light witches, or day witches.

They cannot get tattoos because their natural magic will eat the ink.

Abilities: the gain powers by writing symbols on their body. The symbols can be standardize, or they can be personal to the Nephilim they can sense the presence of magic can astrally travel through the Leylines. They can learn magic by sorcerer stones, but it tends to backfire on them.

They are also able to make magical pendants that grant them other abilities, such as spreading wings, halos and increasing their physical strength and endurance. These are known as the Stella lunar and solar pendants.

These pendants can only be made by Nephilim and are highly tracked and regulated. As each pendant requires years of training and medical skills to make.

*Pendants allowed or user to gain a pair of magical wings. These wings can be retracted. Well they may physically not look like they’re able to carry you, but they can break in the wings will affect their ability to be used to the wings look different for different individuals.

Moon pendants increase the users, magical capabilities for sorcerers it increases the potency of their spouse for Nephilim titans their site census. Aspers become more dangerous and so on and so forth when they activate their power liked patterns of appear on that around them, moon pendants, allow where to summon light objects.

Sun pendants the rarest of all pendants, these pendants increase physical strength, agility, speed and reaction time, but the most powerful thing about the same pendant, is its ability to heal near, fatal physical wounds, but some tendons have a permanent side effect of this coloring, a disfiguring the skin

3. Werecreatures: their pupils are often elongated like a cats eye, their eyes come in warm, browns, gold, yellow, yellow, green, yellow, orange oranges and yellow reds in rare occasions.

Wild and free. Ancient sorcerer's blood runs through the veins. The old abilities of spells are long gone, but the magic of transformation still comes with ease.

Abilities: shapeshifting happens in a few seconds for practice adults, children have a lower control of their abilities it takes longer. Heightened senses. They can learn week magic, but it is never able to be used to its full abilities for sorcerer. Stone

As it is believe that when the start witch dies, they don’t truly die, and instead the energy, the star that was them, just moves on to inhabit a new body, because the body would burn through so fast.

---------------------------------------------------------

the world has little magic but it is potent.

Most magic not contained in creatures and objects floats around In The air like green blue aurora borealis. These are usually invisible during the day and transition times but visible at night. They are called laylines.

magic is either a natural part of something or someone. Or it can be harnessed by the use of tools.

The main tool for doing this is a Sorcerers stone

A Sorcerer Stone allows humans and vampires to draw on the power of the lay lines in order to perform tasks. The power is returned to the Leylines. Once it has been used, they can be from any species, except witches, sorcerer stones, or what give sorcerers their powers and sorcery act a little bit different for everyone who uses it.

A Sorcerer Stone Has to be recharged in order to be used. The stones are usually recharged where Leylines cross. (or at CrossRoads for the cheap sorcerer.)

Sorcery is a bit of an art form, and there have been many spell tomes that exist so sorceress can remember and recite existing spells. But the rock is necessary to perform the magic.

The schools of magic

Psychomancy- a school of magic that mimics the power of Espers (except divination)

Necromancy- a school of Magic that involves heavily in the animal body, decay, diseases, and blood also electricity

AbjuraMancy- school of Magic that specializes in keeping things away be that disease, spirits or people

InvocaMancy- a School of magic that pertains to summoning ideals, and bringing things into existence.

ApothecaMancy-a school magic, heavily involved and healing and medicine.

FormaMancy- school of Magic that involves manipulating the physical form something or someone has.

CrusiusMancy- a School of magic acting similar to a cross roads involving heavily with the Leylines themselves, but also mixing other magic

MandatMancy- a School, the magic all about commands in orders given to objects, plants, animals, people, or nature itself

DivinaMancy- a School of magic based on finding answers and things be there in the past future or present.

Magic color power scale

(Used for all things involving the laylines and magic energy including Espers powers)

Yellow- also called lemon sorcery. It’s a bright yellow with a bit of a green hue to it. The weakest magics. These stones are usually only used as safeguards for apprentice (children) sorcerers. And as batteries in magic items. store 30 min-1 hr of magic in them depending on size.

Lime- called lime sorcery. a bright lime color as the name suggests. they are fine, but not preferred by anyone who performs sorcery on a regular basis. store 1hr- 2 hours 30 minutes of magic use.

Yellow green- also called field sorcery, the most abundant of quality of sorcery stones used in everyday sorcery. often made into jewelry. stores 2hr 45 minutes - 4 hours of magic in them.

Green- good quality stones also called leaf sorcery, often used in the medical field. stores 4 hrs- 8 hrs of magic in them.

Deep green- forest sorcery any sorcerer worth their salt usually has one of these. these powerful stores of magic can continuously perform small feats of sorcery from 8-16 hours.

Blue green- sea sorcery rare and expensive stones, they have 16-20 hours of magic that can be stored within them.

Teal- called river sorcery, these stones are he highest quality stones that can be obtained with relative ease. last for 20-26 hrs.

Cyan- called brine sorcery. used primarily by groups of sorcerers rather than a singular sorcerer, such as in research, medicine or in teaching. they are rare and quite expensive so not seen often outside of academic and political spheres. last for 26-30 hours.

Blue- a light blue color, called sky sorcery, these stones are often only used by grand sorcerers and have permission from the state that sponsors them to use such a stone. think a wizard up in a tower pondering an orb, that is sky sorcery. lasts for 30-48 hours.

White blue- not light blue. It’s both hues mixed together. sort of like looking at a marbled stone. these stones are rare and valuable. they are considered semi legendary in their powers, and these stones are often owned by highly accomplished sorcerers. last for 48-50 hours.

Though the power scale can be a useful tool it’s not always accurate. For example the most powerful sorcerer stone in the world, the stone of the dragon sorcerer is a field stone. even though it often appears white when not in use.

The size and color of the stones matter in their innate power. But creative and well practiced use in them can be just as affective or more so than having a big stone.

an over use of magic tends to have two results: burn-out or burn-up, both can be devastating or temporary afflictions. worst case scenario for burn out is that all the magic within you (your life energy) is drained out off you, causing you to become a mummified undead of sorts that hungers for the energy that was lost. an energy vampier in a manner of speaking. a soul stealing litch. Burnout causes the magic inside of you to ignite in a manner of speaking, spontaneous human combustion. it burns you up leaving a flaming undead.

————————————————————————

Zombies: a creation of Necromancy. Can only be created the within first few minutes to hours of death. The spirit of the person has to then be attached to a soul jar.

Zombies have green hair. They don’t feel pain. Though they can still react to “pain” They have strength, speed and can’t die again. They still retain their personality though as part of becoming zombies their memories and personality will change and fade as they remain undead for longer and longer, until they eventually become creatures called Hollows. Hollows are more like traditional zombies. Zombies can’t be killed unless their soul jar is destroyed. If their body is burned they will take on a new host body, unless the zombie has turned to a hollow. A burned hollow becomes a burning ash. It dose take a few centuries for them to completely loose their memory unless something occurs. It’s difficult for older zombies to form new memories. They are unable to recognize faces.

Animals can also be turned into zombies too and hollows

Hollows have black veins, can not be persuaded, can not be controlled or commanded without immense magic. It’s not known if they feel pain, if they do they do not react to it. ( hollows are like traditional pop culture zombies)

Inifrin are puppets created from necromancy and are made from older bodies.

————————————————————————

Dragons

Dragons have scales made of metal.

More precisely coated in metal. A “dragon’s Horde” is their scales.

They are rare now, they where hunted for their scales, so they hid away in isolated places.

You are unlikely to see a dragon, unless you live near a dragon’s domain. As they live in groups of two to eight dragons.

Dragons behave a lot like cats, but they are intelligent like people often trading and talking to humans on occasion.

Though usually calm and temperate, but can also be angered and lay waste to their surroundings.

Dragons are omnivores, but can absorb energy from laylines the sun or moon. Able to do magic. including the use of sorcery stones.

Male dragons have curved horns. Females have straight horns. Their gender identities are confusing to humanoids. (horn shapes has nothing to do with identity and horns have been known to change)

Nocturnal dragons: silver, copper, bismuth

Diurnal dragons: gold, iorn, lead*

* Uranium > lead: a unique kind of dragon that transform between many forms through their life time. They hatch as uranium dragons, but only live as uranium dragons for a few minutes before transforming into radium dragons. Radium a while later to Radon and so on and so forth until they become lead.

Ferrous dragons-creatures related to the other dragons, but they are overall smaller in size and live in large social flocks. many of them live in human cities. acting as gargoyles on roofs. people are more familiar with these small dragons than what they are with true dragons. ferris dragons are much less magical than that of their larger cousins. Ferrous dragons are closest related to Iron dragons. they claim that they come from an ancient curse that changed their ancestors. types of ferrous dragons- Steel, carbon steel, chromium, manganese, cast iron.

celestial dragons- have powers like those of star witches.

ghost dragons- appear much like time turners.

———————————————————————

Familiars: animals with witch like abilities.

Star beasts- 24 kinds of known star beasts. They are like living stars. Some superstitions say that star Witches are star beasts taking the body of a human.

Isnis- beasts of chaos and fire. They are dangerous and should always be treated with caution even if they are acting docile. Their touch burns.

Imnvi- a kind of monstrous creature that take on a amalgam forms of animals.

Laylines beasts- the laylines are the source of all magic. Laylines beast take the form of all sorts of animals. Usually colored green, blue gray or white. Changing color depending on mood. These beast can phase through objects and turn invisible

Pheridi: sea monsters of many kinds.

Phantoms: creatures and animals from the foggy vale. A ghost world of sorts.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Technology: the world is roughly in the late 1960s-1970s. the have semi modern technology. they have trains, and planes and sewing machines. television and radio are roughly on even ground as large forms of entertainment. cars exist, but they are less popular than trains outside of inner city travel and travel between communities that do not have access to armored trains that keep things of the wild out.

the area of technology that is the furthest in aging behind is that of medicine as the medical field is largely dominated by magic.

(Note on the picture: I drew it, but it is a redraw of a gift I got from someone if this character of mine. Their drawing is the superior one, but as I have lost contact with that person I don’t want to use that picture without permission.)

Title: Night of the London Creatures

Chapter 1: The Awakening

The moon hung low in the sky, casting an eerie glow over the streets of London. The city was shrouded in darkness, its inhabitants unaware of the horrors that awaited them. It was a night like no other, a night when the creatures of the night would rise from their slumber and roam the streets in search of prey.

In a small, dimly lit apartment, Sarah Collins lay in bed, her sleep disturbed by a sense of unease. She tossed and turned, her mind plagued by strange dreams and a feeling of impending doom. As the clock struck midnight, a chilling wind blew through the open window, causing Sarah to shiver.

Unbeknownst to her, the night had awakened a sinister force that had been dormant for centuries. Deep beneath the city, in the forgotten catacombs, a coven of vampires had risen from their coffins. Led by the powerful and malevolent Count Draven, they hungered for blood and power.

Chapter 2: The Haunting

As the night wore on, the creatures of the London underworld emerged from their hiding places. Werewolves prowled the streets, their howls echoing through the empty alleyways. Zombies shuffled aimlessly, their decaying bodies craving human flesh. And witches, with their dark magic, plotted to unleash chaos upon the city.

Sarah, now fully awake, could sense the presence of these creatures. She felt a strange connection to the supernatural, a power she had never known before. Determined to uncover the truth, she embarked on a perilous journey through the darkened streets of London.

Chapter 3: The Battle Begins

Sarah's quest led her to an ancient bookstore, where she discovered a dusty tome filled with forbidden knowledge. The book revealed the secrets of the creatures that haunted the city, their weaknesses, and their origins. Armed with this newfound knowledge, Sarah set out to confront the evil that threatened to consume London.

With each step she took, Sarah encountered more and more of the creatures that plagued the city. She fought off werewolves with silver-tipped arrows, used ancient spells to banish witches, and wielded a sacred blade to slay the undead. But the greatest challenge awaited her in the catacombs, where Count Draven awaited, ready to unleash his dark powers upon the world.

Chapter 4: The Final Confrontation

In the depths of the catacombs, Sarah faced Count Draven, his eyes gleaming with malevolence. The air crackled with dark energy as they engaged in a battle of wills and strength. Sarah's determination and newfound powers proved to be a formidable match for the ancient vampire.

As the battle raged on, the catacombs trembled, threatening to collapse upon them. Sarah summoned all her strength and unleashed a blinding light, engulfing Count Draven in its brilliance. The vampire shrieked in agony as he disintegrated into dust, his reign of terror finally ended.

Chapter 5: The Dawn of a New Era

With Count Draven defeated, the creatures of the night retreated back into the shadows. London was safe once more, but the memory of that fateful night would forever linger in the hearts of its inhabitants. Sarah, hailed as a hero, returned to her normal life, forever changed by her encounter with the supernatural.

Night of the London Creatures had come to an end, but the world would never be the same. The line between reality and the supernatural had been blurred, and the city would forever be haunted by the memory of that night. And as the moon rose once again, casting its eerie glow over the streets, the creatures of the night waited patiently for their next opportunity to strike.

Note: The novel "Night of the London Creatures" is a work of fiction and does not promote or endorse any supernatural beliefs or practices. It is purely a work of imagination and entertainment.

Streaming Interest Check

After three years, I'm finally returning to daywalker status and will be operating on Normal American Hours. I've also been thinking of maybe starting to stream again (after not having done so since 2015).

Only problem is, I was never much of a game streamer Back in the Day™, and all of my go-to stream options (horrible fanfic, terrible hentai and copyrighted anime) would get me nuked from Twitch. So, I ask you, dear audience: What would you want to see me stream?

Here's a list of all games I currently have on Steam. Let me know if you can't access that and I'll make a Read More post or something.

Anyway, once I'm on my new schedule, I'll start doing some test streams over on https://www.twitch.tv/nostalgiachan. Help a girl out maybe?

Valnar hat sich für seine Freunde entschieden und so beginnt der Kampf gegen Jayna. Nach einer harten Schlacht steht die Gruppe nun vor einer noch schwierigeren Entscheidung: wollen sie den Zauber aussprechen? Ahnen sie, was dieser bewirkt? Und so geschieht vielleicht ein weiterer Weltenwandel ...
