Nope. Bandits and Destiny.

A.N. Just something I cooked up, based on Factorysekai CYOA. Not using the rules exactly, of course, just as an inspiration. Not sure if I will do more. The lead war machine stomped past the ruins of worker units. Its job was not to reclaim them for rebuilding, nor was it to replace them. A...

So, this came about from an idea Suzume on the BQ discord had, that caught my interest. Where, instead of people getting more powerful, it was ships, ships that were alive, like Ryo-Ohki or the Jirian trees from Tenchi, and could be grown and developed, with musical magic. With their...

Okay, if I write more snippets for this, I'll just make them a chapter, as their own story. New Cartagena, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 16 January, 3012 James pondered his current situation as he waited for his guests in what had become a...

More, BT with some 40k dressings, using stuff from the Nebula California books. Far from exact, and way safer than 40k. But is ultimately just surface level similarities, except where there are some powers/abilities/tech that are similar, from the Nebula California.

New Cartagena, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 09 January, 3012 James looked over the battlefield from the truck. Cyberic C-99s, the unarmed unarmoured support units, crawled over it. Picking at the wreckage of 'Mechs, still extinguishing...

Thanks! The question would be, of course, how to maintain that level of tension through the story, where appropriate.

New Cartagena, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 08 January, 3012 The battle was going well in Malcolm's eyes. The light 'Mechs, armed with a lostech ER Large lasers, or with an SRM-2 and a pair of Medium lasers, had leapt forwards as soon as...

New Cartagena, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 08 January, 3012 Malcom watched the tac display. The holotable had been looted from some Free World League militia base they had raided years ago. It had been installed in his fortress when he had...

I really should be writing for my other stories, or studying... but this refuses to let go. Near New Cartagena, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 06 January, 3012 James found DropShip travel a novel experience. It didn't excite him, to be...

Scratch clutched the flechette pistol clenched in his trembling hands. Outside the sealed door, the sound of weapons fire sounded. The other members of his crew hid behind consoles, scrap, and whatever they could find. Outside, the tearing of metal could be heard as the invaders tore their way...

Oops, forgot to post it here when I posted it on SB. Nadir Point, New Amazon System Anti-spinward and rimward of the Aquila Nebula, Deep Periphery 01 January, 3012 Scratch, as he was called, had an easy life for a pirate. The New Amazon system, as it's current rulers had named it, was a...

Philip ran the numbers through his head. The magic was not simple. It relied on mathematics and geometry. For an eight year old, it would seem like an insurmountable challenge. For a person that had found themselves born a second time, living a second life, it was far easier. It was still...

Philip tried to ignore the screaming from outside his room. The eight-year-old boy sat on the edge of his bed, a book in his hands. It had been a Christmas gift from Santa, along with several other books, and a bag too keep them in. He focused on the words on the page, as the screaming...

School was boring. Philip remembered little of his first experiences in third grade, from his first life. He remembered more of the bullying he faced, which was not an issue this time around. What he did remember of the actual classes was finishing homework that was handed out before the end of...

Philip sat on his bed. It was the day after Christmas. Or at least, it was in this universe. He had no idea what the date was in the universe he had first been born in. It had been strange, growing up with knowledge of another life, knowing that one had been born twice. It helped in some...

As I come up with story ideas I want to write about, I'll post the snippets or chapters here, to get opinions and discussion. Not going to post ones already on SB, unless I continue those stories. Probably won't.
