    Threadmarks: Showdown 3.5

    Showdown 3.5 I awoke to the sound of a heart monitor, surrounded by crinkly sheets; both were telltale signs I'd made it to a hospital. Whether this was Brockton Bay's hospital or some other nearby hospital because Lung burned ours down, I didn't know, but it was a hospital nonetheless. The...

    Threadmarks: Showdown 3.4

    Showdown 3.4 As a hero, I'd expected a little search and rescue might have been on the table, even if that wasn't my primary focus. On the other hand, I believed I'd be stopping a kidnapping or helping to locate a missing child, not trying to pull anyone I could out of an inferno. Still, we'd...

    Threadmarks: Showdown 3.3

    Showdown 3.3 Even from this far away, I could tell that Lung had enhanced himself much further than Brockton Bay had ever seen before; his wings extended well outside his already oversized frame, and the flames coating his entire body glowed white rather than red. Several flying capes, Lady...

    Threadmarks: Showdown 3.2

    Showdown 3.2 This wasn't my first fight as a cape. However, it'd be the first one that likely wouldn't be ended with one blow. Oni Lee had been on the scene longer than any of us, and he'd been doing just fine on his own before Lung conscripted him. Even outnumbering him three to one, this...

    Showdown 3.1 Showdown - The final phase of a hand of poker, where all remaining players reveal their hands to determine who wins. My brain went on autopilot as the three of us started clearing out classrooms, giving me time to try and piece together what the hell was going on. It felt strange...

    Threadmarks: Ante 2.J (Interlude: Jun)

    Ante 2.J As much as Jun enjoyed working solo, having a team to back him up was much appreciated here. His allies hadn't taken the idea of him working with them well, Skidmark in particular using several rather creative swears and slurs to describe him. However, the point he stressed ultimately...

    Ante 2.S Sophia's school was under attack, and none of the pro heroes had arrived yet. The opportunity was all but perfect to satisfy the burning hunger for justice that had ravaged her since she'd joined the Wards, and what was she doing? Crouching in a back room with about twenty cowering...

    Ante 2.6 After Saturday night's patrol, I decided to take a day off. There would eventually be a day where I could patrol five nights a week without breaking a sweat, but that wasn't there yet. I needed to ease myself into the routine. Thus, Sunday had drifted past at a casual stroll, even as...

    Ante 2.5 Sneaking out the second time had been easier than the first time; it felt good being in costume again. My leg had healed enough that I could have gone out a few days ago, but due to my meetings with Yumeko and Armsmaster, I didn't want to patrol again until I had a concrete plan of...

    Threadmarks: Ante 2.4

    Ante 2.4 As had become the standard, life had dealt me a bad hand: my private card of the four of clubs wouldn't get me very far unless I got lucky, and with one of the public cards also being a four, the odds of getting a pair were even lower than usual. Unlike in real life, at least I could...

    Ante 2.3 The gigantic sandwich the two of us had split had been delicious, but it churned uncomfortably in my stomach as Yumeko led me to her new destination. I knew I didn't have much choice in the matter at this point, but I wasn't exactly looking forward to whatever Yumeko's next step would...

    Wicked Little Games (Worm/Kakegurui)

    Not all of the Kakegurui cast members will appear, and of the cast members that appear not all of them will have powers (at least at first), but I hope to deliver some fairly interesting ones. Without spoiling anything specific, you'll get to see a lot of them soon enough; it's just the nature...

    Ante 2.2 Spring arrived in full force on Saturday afternoon, all warm seaward breezes and sunny skies. As a result, the Boardwalk was more crowded than I'd seen it in months, its patrons so numerous that getting through the most densely packed areas almost required gymnastics. These factors...

    Ante 2.1 Ante - A stake put up by a player in poker or similar games before receiving cards. Somehow, the local Parahuman Response Team Headquarters didn't look quite as intimidating up close as it did from afar. On the Boardwalk, it was a gigantic, looming presence overhead, watching everyone...

    Buy-In 1.K Kirari sank back in her chair as she read Sayaka's most recent report, nursing a third cup of green tea as she did.

    My first-ever QQ fic is wrapping up its first arc. It’s a Worm/Kakegurui crossover named Wicked Little Games, where Yumeko transfers to Winslow and befriends Taylor due to ulterior motives, pulling her into the dark underbelly of Brockton Bay as she does. If that sounds interesting to you, or...

    Buy-In 1.7 Yumeko drew my attention so much she seemed to suck in light. The room may have been blandly decorated and devoid of other people, but there was no reason she should have taken my attention this hard. I wouldn't say she felt like a cult leader considering what I'd heard actual cults...

    Buy-In 1.6 For once, school flew by. Perhaps Emma, Sophia, and Madison were more focused on getting Yumeko to submit than fulfilling my daily quota of suffering. Other than the classes we shared I neither saw nor heard them all day, and their efforts in those classes seemed halfhearted. Even...

    Buy-In 1.5 Walking into Winslow the next morning felt strange. The atmosphere hadn't changed from yesterday, but most of the things I'd worried about here paled in the face of my patrol the night before. Did the Wards feel like this every day? I hoped not. Thankfully, my pants hid the bandage...
