Bylaws of Babel

The next chapter of Understanding will be delayed by a little bit. I've had construction work, extended guests, cross-mountain hiking for the sake of preventing the mayor's office from stealing our land, and day-long power outages all in the last week. I still intend to have it out by week's end, and I don&...

Everything Everywhere One Thing at a Time

Thanks to everyone who voted! This is chapter 8 in my Harry Potter/Stargate multicrossover story, which will now be updated monthly.The story so far can be read in full on Fanfiction.netand here.Apparently, the Hogwarts train station isn’t in Hogsmeade, it’s on the opposite side of the castle from the village. Chap...

The plot hits with a girl. Repeatedly.Also, demon scab.---------------------------------------------------Chapter 18: The Shifting Flow of Fortune“-. The False Lady .-“She had been seduced.Taking the girl’s face had been a last-minute whim. She’d been using a throwaway face before that, convinced that the tall ...

Truth and Reconciliation

I had a little time free, so I dug up the old Halo quest and edited it for third-person perspective, and more faithful characterization. This is essentially what I was able to keep mostly as is. Since it can probably still be found on the net somewhere, I can't in good faith paywall this introductory part. I'm ...

Fire Doesn't Cast Shadow

Chapter 21 for 'Understanding Does Not Presage Peace' is ready, but I'm going to leave it overnight to sleep on it, in case I get a sudden brainwave or realize I did or overlooked something stupid. Believe it or not, it happens almost every time.In the meantime, this is something I wrote in a couple of rapi...

Tie-Breaker Poll

Ok, it's been a full week for the poll to simmer and there have been no more votes for two or three days, the results are pretty much set. To my utter surprise, it was a perfect tie between 'Everything, Everywhere one thing at a Time" and "The Strategy of Godly Surviving" while "Truth and Reconc...

Dead Weight Notice

After some deep thought, I have decided that I will be dropping Reset the Universe. It's become a chore to write it, and each update feels like a mistake. Also, almost no one is reading it anyway, and I think it's obvious to everyone why - the story has a bunch of unfixable problems.The MCU has nothing story-wo...

Vote on Understanding's Replacement

'Understanding Does Not Presage Peace' will be ending soonest out of all my stories, at this rate of updates, so it's time to decide what to slot in its place when the time comes. As most of you know, I have plenty of stories just waiting for me to get back to them. And as many of you also doubtlessly susp...

Reset the Universe - Chapter 5

Some Patrons have told me that they have trouble reading PDFs on mobile because of font size and formatting problems. I'm going to see what happens if I post PDFs unprotected, and I'm going to paste the chapter raw here in this post box as well.Pleaselet me know in the comments if this made any difference. If n...

The Unified Theorem - Chapter 17

The climax of the volume begins.It'll take several good chapters though.Let's see if I can make the payoff worth the wait.

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Chapter 20

I'm sure most of you saw this coming.Also, I was taken in by the 'd'aaaw' stratagem, unfortunately. Apparently, while other animals might take shelter in their dens, wombats don't actually actively rescue other animals during fires, so I corrected that bit in Chapter 19. Yay for the 'mercy is ex...

Hanzo's Side Trips in the Far Future - Invincible

Just something I sketched out in a couple of afternoons, while taking a break. A random idea about what Hanzo, the protagonists of Understanding Does Not Presage Peace, might stumble over while roaming the dimensions in search of anti-slider countermeasures.-------------Inviolable-------------“Good god, not another o...

Reset the Universe - Chapter 4

Let's see how many people recognize the last guy that shows up.I’ve decided that it’s late enough in the timeline that some characters would, in fact, be already born, especially with Emma Frost already a teenager. I’ve thus decided that Rogue does, in fact, already exist (she’s 10).

The Unified Theorem - Chapter 16

The final nail in the coffin of the first book.Now we're just missing the body.

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Chapter 19

Suffering from success, the short story.

It Was a Dark and Stormy Afternoon

Which is to say, it's been so stormy here where I live that trees and, more importantly, power poles have been having a horrible time of it. For you lot, this means that electricity has been coming and going, usually the latter, which has not had the best synergy with my writing schedule. Or my computer, for that m...

Master of Wood, Water and Hill - Chapter 10

For those who haven't seen this yet, the story up to this point can be found on AO3, FF.net and where you'd least expect it.What response I get on this will decide if I make this the third monthly updated story, or if I go back to Reset the Universe. Alternatively, I may just cycle through the other stories I h...

The Unified Theorem - Chapter 15

The last unambiguously nice thing that'll happen for the next not-so-little while.Who could ever have seen this coming?

Winter's Veil is serious business on Azeroth.

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Chapter 17

The repercussions really start catching up with everyone, even during the briefest downtime after mass murder.

The Vagaries of Human Physiology

So APPARENTLY I was headed towards some seriously bad lung-related news, and because my body is ever so accommodating, I was completely lacking in symptoms. So when I took some powdered donkey's milk out of pure solidarity, it set off something in my lungs and precipitated an absolutely gruesome two weeks of snot, ...

The Unified Theorem - Chapter 13

New guests actually solve problems for once.

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Chapter 16

The butcher's bill, through the eyes of the one left to clean up the mess.A glorious new year, everybloody.

Master of Wood, Water and Hill - Chapter 9

Because it's the 20th anniversary of The Return of the King motion picture, but everyone in Hollywood are complete morons that somehow didn't conceive of the notion that re-launching the film in theaters would net them absolutely ridiculous piles of cash, I've decided to return to this story.Some parts of t...
