    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 30

    Chapter 30: Harry pulled a sandwich out of his bag and took a big bite. He couldn't shake the feeling that he was tired. And satisfied. Training with Hermione and Ron had been, to be honest, fantastic. A completely different vibe compared to when he trained alone. The big green turtleneck he...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 29

    Chapter 29: Harry stepped through the portrait hole and froze. The common room was still full, every conversation cut off the second they saw him. Of course, they were waiting for him. Ron stood near the fireplace, eyes wide, mouth half open like he was about to speak but didn't know what to...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 28

    Author's note: Many of you probably expected the first task to begin in this chapter, but unfortunately, that's not the case. The first task officially starts in Chapter 36, for those who are wondering. We still need to wrap up a few story elements before venturing further into the Triwizard...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 27

    The corridor outside the Defense classroom was already crowded when Harry arrived. He spotted Daphne near the middle of the group, looking half-bored and half-alert. Everyone was waiting. Moody stood by the door like a gargoyle with a pulse, arms folded, magical eye spinning slow as he watched...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 26

    The dormitory was dark, the other boys were sleeping. Harry lay on his back, staring at the ceiling, hands folded behind his head. "Do you think that anger belongs to you, Harry? Or is it something you were given?" He could picture Andromeda's mouth when she said it, her dark eyes watching...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 25

    Harry opened his eyes to the gray light of Sunday morning and reached for his wand without thinking. "Tempus." The numbers hovered in the air, neat and blue. 9:37. That left him just over an hour before he needed to be in McGonagall's office. The meeting with Andromeda was at eleven sharp. He...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 24

    Harry didn't hear the goblin at first. His eyes were on the wall. Not looking at it. Just… stuck. It was cold and cracked and probably hadn't been scrubbed since the first goblin war, but that wasn't why he couldn't look away. His brain just refused to go anywhere else. It had been a long day...

    Aura Breaker [LitRPG Cultivation]
    Threadmarks: 5. Marshscale Showdown

    I press Y. Stone doors grind apart and a wall of swamp-warm air rolls over me. The room inside could swallow a basketball court. Black water fills it to thigh height, the surface covered in patches of green scum that glow faint like dying coals. Broken pillars lean at odd angles, some half sunk...

    Aura Breaker [LitRPG Cultivation]
    Threadmarks: 4. Loot to Shards

    Darkness bites the light the moment the arch seals shut behind me. For three breaths I see nothing. I keep the sword point forward and count, same way I used to steady nerves in a blind hallway breach. One, two, three. A faint green glow seeps from thin veins of moss that stripe the tunnel...

    Aura Breaker [LitRPG Cultivation]
    Threadmarks: 3. First Blood First Door

    The grizzly barrels forward like a runaway truck. I shuffle right, betting on a clean sidestep, but its paw shoots out faster than thought. A wall of fur and bone clips my chest. The hit lifts me clear off my feet. I slam into the earth so hard the world blurs white. Mud fills my mouth. Ribs...

    Harry Potter: Forging the Flame
    Threadmarks: Chapter 23

    Harry pushed open the classroom door with his elbow, arms full of Honeydukes loot. "Truce offering," he announced, stepping inside. She was already at the worktable, sleeves rolled and wand balanced between two fingers as she stirred their latest trial base. Her school robes hung open over her...

    Threadmarks: 2. Blood and Welcome

    I wake face down on a slab of broken concrete. My head pounds like someone is beating a drum inside my skull. Dust coats my tongue, blood drips from my ear, and every breath scrapes my throat raw. I groan and press my palms against the stone but my arms shake so hard I almost collapse. The world...

    Threadmarks: 1. Checkmate and Collapse

    I reach pushup eighty and drop flat. Sweat splashes on rough cement. Cedric walks by my bars, the light above him buzzing. "Hey, Charles. Still want a book? Something to pass the time?" He waves an old paperback. I sit on my knees. "Pass the time? That is my whole life now. Slide it in...

    Video Games General

    Hey! I just started playing The Slormancer, and I have to say it's been a blast so far. I'm running the Huntress, and I'll probably update my thoughts once I reach the end-game. I've just unlocked the Blacksmith, which finally lets me set up loot filters and the game is really shaping up! Anyone...

    If you were paid $1,000,000 in exchange for being able to only play 5 different video games for the rest of your life, which ones would you pick?
