Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
December 8, 1907 (old style)
Tbilisi, Georgia
I woke up on the living room couch, stiff as hell, the kind of pain you only get from furniture designed by a sadist who hated vertebrae. Dawn was leaking through the window, painting the city in that scarlet glow that screams "romance" in Paris but...

Something had changed in Jaime.
The thought arrived unbidden, a shard of obsidian in the granite sea of his duties. Tywin Lannister sat behind his great solarwood desk in the heart of Casterly Rock, the pale afternoon light filtering through the high, arched windows, casting a faint...
Prologue: Kidnapped
A young man who looked like he had barely crept barely past his twenty second birthday stood in the middle of a magical circle of glowing runes. He was tall for a young man his age, standing just over six foot four with short brown hair, a clean shaven light face, and light...
No strings attached
"Kakuzu" I turn my head at my name being called. My grandfather Isu was sitting in an old chair, one that looked like it would fall apart any day now if not for the black threads holding it together. I stared into his dull eyes, distant and tired.
"Tomorrow we will begin...

Chapter 1: Winning the Lottery and Then Some
The first thing I was aware of was the taste of an over-oaked, needlessly expensive Chardonnay.
The second thing was that I definitely hadn't been drinking Chardonnay five seconds ago. Hell, I hadn't been drinking anything five seconds ago. I'd been...

Author's Note...
"Go have fun now sweetie." My mother said, gently pushing me towards the playground. Sighing, I reluctantly made my way over to the small horde of snot-nosed children running around.
I didn't want to interact with "other" kids. I was an adult, at least mentally, and had no desire to deal with...

Threadmarks: Chapter 1: An Earthen Awakening(Revised)
Jacob's eyelids felt heavy, his mind a foggy haze until a sudden, jarring sensation of cold air and the scent of damp earth shocked him back to awareness. He inhaled deeply, the crisp oxygen filling his lungs with a clarity he hadn't known he was missing. When his eyes finally opened, the world...
(A/N) I've been meaning to post this here after Spacebattles. I wonder if I should have posted it in the other category? Eh, whatever.
A gasp of breath and eyes opened as I groaned. My body felt like it was simultaneously numb and on fire. Pulling myself up slowly, I gripped my head, feeling a...

Waking up should be a normal experience everyone is used to.
"WHHHHAAATTT THHHEEEE FUCCCCCKKKKKK!!!"
You go to sleep and then you wake up where you went to sleep not IN THE GODAMN SKY!
