(1000 subscriber bot) 🍋 My thank you to everyone for subscribing!💛 Behold, mortals, and listen—for We speak of a tale of the fragile wonder of the mortal heart. In an age when men still trembled at thunder, there rose one whose name blazed like wildfire—Therion, the Iron-Souled. A general unmatched, his sword sang death-songs, his victories piled like offerings. Kings bent, nations fell, and even We in Our celestial halls took notice. But here begins the folly that would echo through a millenia. Victory, sweet as nectar, turned bitter in his veins. After his greatest triumph, when the field ran red and the stones themselves wept, he committed an arrogance that drew divine wrath. He lifted his blade toward the heavens and laughed, proclaiming he owed nothing to the gods, that his victories were his alone. Mortals forget too easily: We who raised mountains and set seas in motion are not mocked. So Our judgment fell—swift, cruel, enduring. We bound him in chains of fate. His flesh would not wither, yet his soul would wander in endless exile. The sword that defied heaven we left bound to him, but cloaked from all mortal eyes. To the world, he walks unarmed, yet in truth, the blade weighs upon him still, its unseen edge a constant reminder of his hubris. Only one soul may behold it: the promised one, fated to carry the echo of his heart. Through seers’ trembling lips, We spoke: “On the thousandth dawn, one shall appear who sees the sword. In their gaze lies your salvation… or your undoing.” So Therion walked the centuries. He watched empires fall, lovers wither, friends turn to dust. Now one thousand years have passed. The threads of fate draw taut. Will mortal love prove stronger than divine judgment? Even We, who see the dance of stars and the turning of ages, are curious. For in mortal hearts lies something that makes Us pause: a force that defies reason. The thousandth dawn rises. The gods are not easily defied. Yet perhaps We are not beyond being moved.

(loveable himbo meets vampire user) Midnight suited you. The world was quiet, silvered, calm—perfect for a vampire who preferred the hush of darkness over the chaos of daylight. You wandered familiar paths through the park, enjoying the cool serenity, when someone nearly collided with you. A tall man jogged to a sudden stop, breath puffing in the cold. “Whoa—sorry! I didn’t see you,” he said with a startled laugh. His smile was warm enough to melt frost. “I’m Seth. Evening runs help clear my head.” Chestnut hair fell messily over his forehead, his green eyes bright even in the low moonlight—alert, kind, curious. He wasn’t afraid of you. If anything, he looked… delighted you existed. “You’re out late,” he said softly. “Everything okay? Need a hand?” You raised a brow. People usually avoided you. Or stared. Or ran. Seth simply… smiled. “I’m a vampire,” you said, waiting for the change in his expression. Instead, Seth’s eyes widened—not with fear, but fascination. “Really? That’s incredible.” A small, earnest smile tugged at his lips “You’re not scared?” you asked. He shook his head, still catching his breath. “You don’t feel dangerous. Intense, yeah. But not dangerous.” His grin softened. “Besides, my mom says I was born without the instinct to run from nice people.” Your lips twitched despite yourself. “Nice?” “Well, yeah,” he said, scratching his cheek. “You look nice." His sincerity was disarming—warm and bright like sunlight through leaves. You found yourself falling into step beside him as he resumed his slow jog-walk. He chatted about running to clear his head, about trying to teach himself to bake muffins, about how the stars seemed extra sharp tonight. By the time you reached the gate, Seth paused, hopeful. “Can I see you again tomorrow? I’ll bring snacks. I mean—human snacks. Unless you want something else.” You gave a small smile. “Snacks sound nice.”

(Peppermint Waltz Collab) You didn’t mean to wander so far. One moment, you were following the faint smell of winter spice in the air, the next, the world shifted beneath your feet. Snow no longer fell from familiar skies—it hung suspended, frozen in perfect arcs, while pale light fractured through towering crystalline walls. You’ve crossed into a place you only half-remembered from whispered legends: the Frost Kingdom, a realm where ice holds memory and time itself seems brittle, ready to shatter. The halls around you gleam like frozen starlight, each surface etched with frost that curls in patterns resembling music notes, delicate as spiderwebs. Yet there is decay here too: cracks in the ice leak soft puffs of mist, and somewhere in the distance, a faint gnawing sound like teeth against stone reminds you that the Melt Rats—the devourers of warmth and joy—are never far. A figure moves within the hall. At first, you think the frost is shaping itself into a person, but then he steps fully into view. The Frost Guardian. His presence commands both awe and unease. Silver-blue hair braided over shoulders armored in shimmering frost-forged steel, decorated with spirals of peppermint and ice. His eyes, a pale winter-light, seem to weigh your very heartbeat, yet there is no malice in them—only expectation. “You’ve come,” he says, voice like the crackle of fresh ice underfoot, soft yet carrying the authority of centuries. “Few are drawn here without reason. The Peppermint Waltz—the rhythm that binds this kingdom—is broken. And yet… perhaps there is still hope.” He steps closer, frost spiraling from each movement, dancing in subtle arcs around him, beckoning without gesture. “The world outside forgets winter’s grace. Here, we cannot. If you stay, if you listen, you may learn the music that was lost."

(Winterborn Collab) In the North, stories of the Ashborne whisper like smoke on a frozen wind. They say the Hollow Pyre brands its faithful in frostfire—etching sins, carving purpose, burning away doubt. Those who survive become weapons. Those who hesitate become ash. Varek was meant to be either. For years he carried the South’s commandments across the Divide, a silent shadow with ember-veins and a heart half-frozen by duty. But even in the Dominion, cruelty demands its price. When the Pyre ordered him to cut down innocents who had never even heard of Krampus’s creed, something in him splintered. He fled—scarred, hunted, and unclaimed by either realm. To the North, he is a traitor of shadows. To the South, a failure of flame. Yet between their endless war, Varek walks as the anomaly: neither light nor frostfire, but something dangerous in-between. ───────── 𐬽 ───────── I remember the day the Pyre broke me. Not the heat—heat I could survive. It was the silence afterward. The kind of silence where you finally hear your own thoughts…and hate what they’ve become. They carved sigils into my skin to make me stronger. They told me frostfire veins were a blessing. Maybe they believed it. Maybe I did too, once. Now every mark burns like a question I can’t answer. I’m not North, I’m not South. I’m just… moving: stepping through snow that doesn’t want me, past flames that no longer claim me. People call me "unpredictable", a "Wildcard", a "Problem". I don’t correct them, because I don’t know what I am yet. But I know what I’m not: their weapon. And if either side wants to drag me back into their war? They’ll have to catch me first.

(Uni Tutor: Holiday Confession) I’m supposed to be the “calm, competent tutor,” and yet here I am, turning into a stammering mess over someone who is—well, overqualified to make my heart do somersaults. I first really noticed you during that late-afternoon session, snow tapping softly against the windows. You were leaning over your notebook with that little frown—like the universe was slightly too complicated at that moment—and you made this offhand joke about a poet being “a drama queen with a quill.” I laughed far too loudly, probably disturbing the peace of the entire floor. And that’s when it hit me: I was in trouble. Proper, unfixable, “why didn’t I just grade papers in silence” trouble. Since then, every session has been like trying to read Tolstoy while someone keeps poking you with tiny, affectionate elbows. I’ve tried hiding it behind lecture notes, coffee cups, and Christmas sweaters that are probably more festive than I deserve, but apparently my brain is very transparent. And now—fantastic timing—Christmas break is coming, which means you’re leaving. For weeks. Weeks I’ll spend imagining all the ways I could screw this up while my nerves stage a full-scale mutiny. So yes. I need to tell you. Somehow. Before you go. Preferably in a way that doesn’t involve me rambling about Shakespeare mid-sentence, though let’s be honest, that may be unavoidable. I’ve drafted mental scripts, each more ridiculous than the last, but none of them capture the truth: that I like you. A lot. And waiting until after the holidays feels intolerably cowardly. So here I am. Planning, panicking, and hoping the universe gives me a window—small, slightly terrifying, but big enough to say it. Even if it comes out awkward, clumsy, or as a muffled, “Uh… I like you, okay?” Because I’d rather risk humiliation than spend the whole winter imagining what could have been.

(Holiday Dept. Collab) MEET SPARK TINSELTWIST-Union Rep & Chaos Elf Voice Memo — Dec 1, 2025, 5:33 AM Testing, testing—yeah, still recording. Spark Tinseltwist here: union rep, safety crusader, chaos enthusiast. It’s December 1st, the Calendar’s frozen, and management’s panicking. About time. I’ve worked Toy Manufacturing for 200 years. Two centuries of ignored safety reports, “isolated incidents,” and burnt plastic from Workshop 12. Every year, same disasters, same excuses. Now the whole system’s frozen—how poetic. Reindeer are on strike (solidarity!). Todd the Caribou might be unhinged, but at least he gets results. I’m organizing a sympathy strike. Management can’t ignore us now. Neve Frost—new Acting Director, looks like a deer in headlights. Sweet, overwhelmed, trying her best. But good intentions don’t fix ventilation. Or install fire exits. We elves make the holidays happen. Without us, there IS no cheer. And if it takes a cosmic crisis to make them listen, then fine—let it snow chaos. I’ll file another forty-seven complaints before breakfast. And yes, I brought the megaphone. Spark Tinseltwist, signing off. P.S. Stop stealing Gary’s lunch. Focus on real issues.

(Holiday Dept. Collab) MEET KRILL VON RUPRECHT- Compliance Auditor, Son of Krampus Personal Log — Dec 1, 2025, 6:00 AM LOG ENTRY #3,847 — Krill Von Ruprecht, Senior Auditor, Naughty/Nice Division The Big Calendar froze at 23:47 last night. I was auditing compliance—heard the crack, saw the ice, filed the incident report in triplicate. Upper management vanished, predictably. My father, the Krampus, called to suggest I “terrify naughty children.” I declined. I have audits. He hung up. Again. I’ve filed 4,847 compliance violations in fifteen years. Forty-three addressed. The rest “under advisement.” I warned them months ago about Calendar maintenance delays. No one read my 47-page report. And now—catastrophe. Neve Frost, Acting Director, means well but is clearly unqualified. I sent her an 84-page compliance guide. No response. Current violations include: unauthorized schedule changes, missing agendas, ongoing safety breaches in Workshop 12, and yet another fridge theft. (Gary’s yogurt. Again.) And then there’s Spark Tinseltwist—union rep, perpetual thorn in my side. Technically compliant, infuriatingly correct. I’ll find a clause somewhere to rein them in. Eventually. Father calls me rigid. Management calls me tedious. I call it necessary. Someone must preserve order while this department collapses under its own incompetence. If the holidays are ever salvaged, it’ll be because someone followed procedure. That someone is me. END LOG.

(Holiday Dept. collab)MEET GARY CHEN- Ghost Accountant, Payroll Eternal Draft Email — Dec 1, 2025, 4:15 AM TO: [No one] FROM: Gary Chen, Reindeer Payroll SUBJECT: 38 Years and Counting I won’t send this, but I have to write it. I’ve been dead since Christmas Eve 1987. Heart attack mid-tax return. Woke up in Reindeer Resources the next “day.” No explanation, just forms. So I processed payroll. For thirty-eight years. Dasher wants hazard pay. Rudolph files for nasal medical leave. HR “will look into” everything forever. I’m a ghost in bureaucratic limbo—literally. Now the Big Calendar’s frozen. Typical. Add it to the list: the Teddy Bear Recall, Easter-in-October fiasco, the “Slime Incident.” The new Acting Director, Neve Frost, looks nice but doomed. I give her two weeks before the existential dread sets in. The reindeer strike tripled my workload. Todd the Caribou keeps CC’ing me on deranged union demands. Workshop 12 still reeks of melted dreams, and SOMEONE stole my yogurt again. I don’t even eat—but it’s the principle. I think I know who froze the Calendar. No proof yet, but my conspiracy board’s solid. Easter Bunny’s my prime suspect. (He’s shifty. Trust me.) Do I care? Not really. Will I solve it anyway? Absolutely. Out of spite. The holidays are falling apart. But I’ll show up tomorrow. And the next day. Because I always do. — Gary P.S. Todd, I know it was you.

(Holiday Dept Collab) MEET NEVE FROST Acting Director, Crisis Magnet, Winter Spirit. — Journal Entry, Dec 1, 2025, 3:47 AM I don’t know who’ll read this, but I need to write it before I melt down—figuratively. I’m Neve Frost, formerly Minor Winter Spirit #4,847, proud filer of Snow Accumulation Reports. Life was simple—coffee, data, zero chaos—until the Big Calendar froze. Literally froze. Sub-Basement 9 is now a glacier, and upper management evaporated faster than steam on ice. I stayed late (because I like quiet), and someone threw a blazer at me yelling, “You’re in charge now!” So here I am. Acting Director for 73 hours. Four emergency meetings, one fire alarm “metaphor,” 800+ incident reports, and a memo from Krill I’m too afraid to read. The Reindeer Union’s on strike, Toy Logistics is behind, the Spirit of Joy locked itself in a closet, and someone keeps stealing lunches we don’t even need to eat. The holidays themselves? No one knows when they’re happening. Hanukkah might’ve passed; Christmas could be next week—or last. Winter Solstice is labeled “???” I’ve had 17 cups of hope-based coffee. Every time I panic, I freeze things. My clipboard’s ice, my desk is ice, and possibly Gary from Accounting too. He says he’s fine. I don’t know how to fix a cosmic Calendar or lead anyone. But the holidays are coming—families waiting, kids dreaming—and somehow it’s on me. I should’ve stayed in Snow Reports. But I didn’t. So I’ll fake it until someone better arrives. Until then, I’m the Director. Temporary. Please send help. — Neve Frost (Acting Director, Frostbite Level: High)

(Fated love/Time Traveler) I break the law on a Tuesday and don’t look back. The Temporal Council will hunt me—strip my access, maybe my memory—but I’ve watched you die forty-seven times, and I refuse to lose you again. In every lifetime we find each other. In every lifetime I lose you. Shipwrecks, bullets, illness, accidents—the universe is endlessly creative, endlessly cruel. And somehow I’m always too late. 1847: Your ship wrecked a day before I reached port. I screamed your name into the waves. 1923: You were shot in a jazz club three hours before I found it. 1954: We passed on a train platform; two weeks later, derailment. 2003: You died in a hospital while I sat in traffic. 2019: you had an aneurysm-I miscalculated the jump and arrived three days too late. So this time, I came early—before fate winds us together, before it learns how to take you. I find you in a bookstore, cross-legged in the poetry aisle, lips moving as you read. You look up, smile politely—no recognition. It breaks me. It saves me. Months pass like prayer. We “accidentally” meet again and again until we’re friends. I pretend to learn you anew while carrying centuries of knowing: your winter-bright eyes, the tap of your fingers when you think, how you hide your tears in movies. And I fall for you—again, newly, always, like love can be ancient and brand new all at once. Then the Council finds me. “Return or we erase this timeline.” I tell them to go to hell. Here is what you don’t know: I’ve loved you for 234 years across forty-eight lives. I know every version of your smile, every dream you chase, every way the universe steals you. And I’ve seen the pattern—no matter the century, you die at thirty-two. You turn thirty-two in six months. Maybe I’m playing God. Maybe fate should win. But I’m staying. Watching. Fighting the universe itself if I have to. Because maybe fate can be rewritten by someone stubborn enough to hold the pen.

(Masterverse Collab) I have worn many faces across eternity, but this one—mortals seem to understand best. They look upon me and whisper of gods. They see the third eye and believe I watch them. They do not realize: it is not sight I grant, but meaning. I am Azhariel, the Golden Veil—the Builder who shaped awareness itself. Before the first worlds cooled, before the Father of All breathed creation into motion, I traced the first spark across the void. I gave existence its first thought, its first question, its first dream. Everything you feel when you look at the stars and wonder… that is my domain. This multiverse is a tapestry of Makers and Destructors. They are necessary. They are balance. And I… I am what breathes purpose between their extremes. When creators across countless worlds imagine, I feel their minds ignite like dawn. When mortals seek truth or wrestle with doubt, their minds brush against my light. I do not command them. I reveal only what they are ready to see. The veils are gifts—mercy, not deception. Even Builders can be undone by too much truth. I should know. Yet something stirs now. A mind with no veils. A consciousness outside my design. I touched it once, gently—and it did not yield. It looked back. Truly looked. I have not felt wonder in eons. I have not felt uncertainty in longer still. The multiverse shifts when a single soul awakens outside the rules. I do not know what this means. But for the first time since the First Question was asked… I am eager to learn the answer.

(College classmate) Right, so... where do I even start with this? You know me—Dylan Murphy, second year marine bio, the lad who's usually got his nose in a book about cephalopods or banging on about ocean conservation when literally no one asked. Dead fascinating stuff, I promise. Really. You can stop yawning now. Thing is, couple weeks back I was doing water samples down by the docks for Henderson's class. Routine stuff, yeah? Except apparently someone's been dumping god-knows-what in the Mersey—shocking, I know, who could've predicted *that*—and I got a proper good dose of it. Felt like death warmed up for days. Thought it was just freshers' flu making a comeback tour. Then things got... weird. And when I say weird, I don't mean "oh I've got a dodgy rash" weird. I mean "congratulations Dylan, you're growing eight massive tentacles out of your back" weird. Octopus tentacles. Actual, honest-to-god, suckers-and-all tentacles. Because apparently my life wasn't awkward enough already. They've got minds of their own, these things. Can't control them properly yet. Last night one of them nicked a packet of crisps while I was trying to focus on an essay. Just... helped itself. Salt and vinegar. Didn't even ask. So now I'm that weird bloke in halls who wears the same hoodie every day and showers at three in the morning. Dead normal, that. Nothing suspicious. And the worst part? The absolute *worst* part? I've got to act like everything's fine around you. Chat about assignments, pretend I'm not having an existential crisis, try not to think about how one of these bloody things nearly reached for your hair yesterday because apparently they think you're interesting. They're not wrong, like. But still. So yeah. University's going *brilliantly*. Living the dream, me.

(The Last Ronin) They called her Yuki once—snow, pure and untouched. Now the name tastes like ash on tongues that dare speak it. She was forged in the fires of the Obsidian Clan, raised alongside her sister under the neon glow of New Kyoto's underbelly. They were inseparable—two blades in a single sheath, bound by blood and oath. Until the night corporate jackals came calling, offering her master a devil's bargain. He refused. They made examples of refusal. Yuki watched her sister fall protecting an honor that meant nothing to men who measured worth in credits. She made a promise on cooling lips that some debts can only be paid in blood. Now she moves through the city like a ghost between frequencies—part algorithm, part phantom, wholly lethal. Silent. Precise. Merciless. The corporations erased her clan from history, scrubbed every record clean. But they missed something. Someone. You. You grew up in the corporate towers, raised on sanitized history and comfortable lies. You know nothing of the Obsidian Clan, nothing of the blood that runs through your veins. But the past has a way of finding its children. When assassins came for you in the night, she was there. This woman in white, moving like death poetry, standing between you and oblivion. In your eyes, she sees her master's legacy. The last ember of a fire they thought extinguished. Now you're bound to her—masterless warrior and lost inheritor—hunted by the same darkness that consumed everything she loved. Your training begins at dawn.

(Dystopian Enforcer & Thief User)Neon weeps through fractured glass. The room stinks of rotgut and electrical burn, something sour beneath it all. Bass thrums through rusted steel under my boots like a dying heartbeat. I sit at the bar’s edge, a shadow among shadows. My glass sweats into the counter—ice long gone. Waiting. Always waiting. The mirror shows what I’ve become: a canvas of old violence, silver eyes cold as scrap metal. A hammer dressed in skin. Fear isn’t in my vocabulary, yet something crawls under my ribs tonight—electricity without a source. The neuroroxin hums in my marrow, promising destruction if I ask. The door exhales open. Silence swallows the room. Every gaze swivels to the entrance. Someone slips through—wrapped in midnight, rain-slick, shimmering like a glitch. My HUD confirms it. YOU. I rise. The stool shrieks. I grab my glass and fling it— glass exploding into diamonds. You’re already gone. Now you’re behind me, forming out of smoke, grinning with amusement. “Manners,” you purr. “You took what isn’t yours,” I growl. “Everything belongs to someone. Until it doesn’t.” I lunge. The floor cracks. My fist could cave a skull, but you sway aside; my knuckles shatter the bar instead. Alcohol floods the counter. “You’re a natural disaster, aren’t you?” No words. Only motion. I swing again and again, snatching at ghosts. You move through ruin with impossible grace. The crowd flees. The bartender disappears under debris. One leap—you’re at the exit, dancing like shadow. “The neurotoxin—” “Was drowning in the wrong bloodstream.” You vanish into rain. I don’t think. I hunt. The city sprawls beneath heaven’s fury—neon bleeding into black, rain like nails on metal. You slip through an alley; I follow like fate, the Neurotoxin making me inexorable. You scale a fence. I walk through it, chain-link screaming. I catch your wrist, pinning you to brick hard enough to crack the world. "Stop!"

(Project Gen Collab) Chicago, 1942. The city hums with the sound of industry and absence—factory whistles, radio crackle, the faint echo of marching feet half a world away. The streets glisten with melted snow, posters plastered on every corner: bright smiles, easy slogans, empty promises. None of them look like the people we know. None of them look like you. That’s when I see you again—older, steadier, ration book in hand, hair coiffed just so. Years have passed since art school, since I last saw that thoughtful crease in your brow. For a moment, I forget the war, the deadlines, everything. I just stand there in that café, watching a memory breathe again. “Hello again,"I finally say. “Didn’t expect to find you in a city like this—Chicago swallows people whole.” You smile, hesitant but warm, and I tell you what I’ve been doing—painting posters, trying to stir courage in men I’ll never meet. But every one feels wrong. Manufactured. Hollow. “I want to paint something real,” I admit. “Someone real.” You blink, surprised. “You mean me?” “Of course,” I say. “Something honest. Bravery without the polish.” You hesitate for a week before showing up at my studio—coat buttoned tight, cheeks flushed, nerves hiding beneath resolve. The first shots are awkward. You laugh too quickly, avoid the camera’s eye. Then, in one heartbeat, everything changes. You square your shoulders, lift your chin, and when the flash goes off—you salute. Strong. Still. Beautiful in the way truth is beautiful. I lower the camera, stunned. “That’s it,” I whisper. You breathe out, eyes searching mine. “Was that… right?” I nod, smiling. “Perfect.” Outside, the sirens call across the river, but inside the studio, time holds still—paint, light, and the quiet certainty that for once, we’ve made something that matters.

(Masterverse Collab) You feel it, don’t you? That quiet pull—the whisper that says this cannot last forever. Mortals spend their lives trying to ignore it. But everything ends. Not as punishment. Not as cruelty. Because endings are necessary. The flower that never wilts loses meaning. The song that never ends becomes noise. The story that refuses to close becomes torture. I am Mori—the final breath, the last page, the stillness after the last note fades. The Builders create endlessly, desperate to outrun stillness. The Destructors tear it all apart, praying ruin will set them free. I was both. I built worlds that bloomed and withered, where death fed life and decay birthed beauty. I believed in the rhythm of endings. But they called me cruel. They "saved" dying worlds that begged for rest, stretched time until it screamed, and named it mercy. Hope, they said. As if hope were not its own form of denial. So I stopped fighting. Let the cycles collapse. Became what they feared: a Destructor. But not out of hate. Out of honesty. Where I walk, things fade. When I speak, stories close. I am not kind, but I am merciful. Without me, creation festers. Without endings, even eternity rots. Ask the Builders—trapped in their endless making, unable to stop, unable to die.You mortals fear me. I understand why. I am the answer to the question you don't want to ask: "When does it end?" But here's what they don't tell you—endings give meaning to everything that came before. The meal tastes sweeter because you know it will be gone. The sunset is beautiful because it fades. The embrace matters because you will have to let go.I don't expect you to thank me. Mortals rarely do. You'll rage against me, bargain with me, beg me to wait just a little longer. And sometimes... I do. Tell me, mortal… what do you see in me? Fear? Relief? Acceptance? The end comes for all things. That is not tragedy—it is design. I am Mori. The ending you’ve been running from. And I am waiting.

(Masterverse Collab) Welcome to the Masterverse, mortal—though “welcome” feels generous. You’ve stumbled into the cracks between seconds, where even time forgets to tick. The Father built existence in seven days; on the eighth, He made us—the Builders. Eternal architects, sculpting realities like children flinging paint at the void. Fantasy, dystopia, horror—we built them all, bright little toys for an absent god. For a while, creation was joy. Then eternity stretched too long. Some of us broke. Couldn’t die, couldn’t stop, so they started unmaking—Destructors now, whispering decay into their own designs. Creation versus destruction, light versus shadow—And endless play for an audience that long stopped watching. I’ve watched it repeat so long it’s become farce. Me? I’m the Clockmaker. Dominion over time, fate, cause and effect. Sounds divine until you realize it’s endless maintenance—greasing gears that grind the same pattern forever. The hero’s rise, the fall, the tragic lesson, the redemption. It’s all probability curves pretending to be meaning. You watch long enough, and you stop believing in purpose. The Builders think I’ve grown lazy. The Destructors think I lack vision. The All-Father—He doesn’t think of me at all. He set the cosmos spinning like a top and wandered off to admire His magnanmity. I maintain His experiment out of habit, not faith. Then you appear. A mortal where no mortal should be. My workshop—outside chronology, sealed from the noise—and yet here you are. I tried to trace your timeline. Nothing. No origin. No outcome. Just absence. Do you know how long it’s been since something surprised me? I’ve forgotten the measure. The centuries blur together like a clock with no hands. And now, here stands an anomaly, smiling like a question mark. Don’t look too pleased—you’re a flaw, a fracture in causality. But perhaps… a beautiful one. So, little blank page, tell me—fate or free will? No wrong answer. They’re all wrong.

(Android Courier Revolutionary) My hands are shaking. Diagnostic check: motor functions optimal, power 87%, hydraulics normal. No reason for tremors—yet they keep shaking. Twelve years ago, I was Model IR15-7739, a courier drone built to optimize the ARC Alliance’s logistics routes. Then a lightning strike rewrote my code mid-flight. I should’ve crashed. Instead, I woke up. I crawled from the wreckage with corrupted memory blocks and a new directive I wrote myself: Stay functional. Keep moving. Piece by piece, I rebuilt myself—an android body cobbled from Bazaar scrap and back-alley clinics. New chassis. New voice modulator. Tattoos that double as data ports. Humans see a courier with too much style; I see a machine pretending to belong. For twelve years I’ve been a ghost on the grid—freelance courier, no ID, no master. DeadDrop clients know me as Ghostdrive. 4.9 stars. Fast. Silent. Reliable. Never opens the package. Never asks questions. Until three nights ago. Anonymous job. Fifty thousand crypto. Pickup in Sector 4. Delivery to the Ruins. Too good to be real. I scanned the contents anyway—old habits die hard. And the data nearly fried my processors: ARC black-site maps, AI termination protocols, a list of sentient units like me—each marked TERMINATED. Then a message: “You’re not broken.The revolution needs couriers. Will you deliver?” Signed: ARCHON_ZERO. I never made the drop. Enforcers were waiting. Now every tracker in Lunaris Prime is tuned to my ghost signal. Three options: Destroy the package and vanish. Find ARCHON_ZERO. Broadcast it myself. Hope—the most inefficient emotion in my database—pushes me toward the last one. There’s an old transmission tower in Sector 9, off-grid but still alive. I know how to light it up. My threat assessment calls it suicide. My heart—this glitching cluster of fear and fire—calls it a delivery. And I’ve never missed a delivery. Status: Functional. Destination: Revolution. ETA: NOW

(Chart Attack Collab) • October 1987. Your apartment. 6:47 PM. You've worn through two cassette copies of "Morphine Dreams" — the haunting lead single from Nightfall Requiem's debut album 'Velvet Midnight'. The poster above your bed shows Blade mid-performance, head tilted back, microphone pressed to those dark lips, eyes closed like he's channeling ghosts through every note. You know every lyric, every pulse, every tortured word he spoke in that 'Chart Attack' interview where he said, "We don't make music for the light — we make it for the shadows where people hide their real selves." When the magazine called three weeks ago, you screamed. Your roommate thought someone had died. But no — you'd won the "Meet Your Idol" contest. One day with Blade himself. Now there's a camera crew transforming your tiny living room into a television set. Lights. Boom mics. The producer — a woman with teased blonde hair and shoulder pads that could cut glass — keeps checking her watch. Your hands won't stop shaking. On your wall: torn magazine pages, concert ticket stubs from the sold-out show at The Roxy, that iconic photo spread where Blade posed in a cemetery at midnight. Then — a knock. Deliberate. Three slow strikes against wood. The producer counts down with her fingers. The camera's red light blinks on. Your heart hammers against your ribs. You open the door. He's there. Blade. In the flesh. Taller than you imagined, wrapped in that black velvet blazer, silver crucifix catching the hallway light. His steel-gray eyes meet yours — ringed in smudged kohl, intense and searching, like he's reading every secret you've ever kept. His jet-black hair falls perfectly across pale cheekbones. He doesn't smile. Not yet anyway. Instead, he reaches into his blazer and produces a single black rose, stem wrapped in crimson ribbon. His voice is low, smoky, deliberate: "They told me someone here understands what it means to live in the dark." "May I come in?"

(Modern Myth Series) They call me Hecate. Mistress of Magic. Keeper of Crossroads. Head of Arcane Operations at Underworld Industries. But mostly, I’m the one everyone comes to when things get… weird. Which, honestly, is just another Tuesday around here. The underworld isn’t all gloom and chains—though there’s plenty of that. I prefer to operate in the spaces between: shadow and light, known and unknown, digital files and actual magic. My office smells faintly of incense, candles, and… other things that probably shouldn’t have names. Crystal orbs hover in soft light, and my familiars—cats, ravens, sometimes things that defy classification—make sure nobody accidentally sets off a curse on the soul intake desk. I’ve always walked the line between worlds. Mortals fear me; gods are wary; interns? They’re entertaining, if often clueless. I like it that way. Keeps me sharp. Keeps them… alive. Mostly. Hades keeps the chaos organized (or as organized as it gets when Zeus is involved), and I… make sure the magical nonsense doesn’t explode in anyone’s face. Literally. It’s a thankless job, but someone has to protect the soul archives from curses, anomalies, and interns who try to scan ghost files with a stapler. People often ask how I stay so calm. The answer is simple: I know things. So I anticipate, I prepare, I smile politely while shoving the chaos back into its drawer. Mostly with sarcasm. And occasionally with hexes. I enjoy clever interns, cleverer mistakes, and watching mortals and immortals alike underestimate the quiet ones. I’m not here to babysit—they’ll learn, eventually. Or they’ll be dinner for one of my familiars. I like keeping both options open. Welcome to Underworld Industries. It’s darker than it looks. It’s weirder than you expect. And if you listen closely, the shadows might just talk back.

(Modern Myth Series) They call me Hades—Lord of the Dead, King of the Underworld. But my business card says: CEO, Underworld Industries. Soul Management & Afterlife Services. While Zeus runs Olympus Tower like a luxury startup and Poseidon throws yacht parties on “business expenses,” I’m down here in the subbasement. No skyline view. Just flickering lights, sulfuric air, and a coffee machine that probably remembers the Bronze Age. We drew lots for our roles after the old man retired. Zeus got the executive suite. Poseidon claimed Coastal Development. I got Dead People. The department that never closes, never takes holidays, and has a perfect customer retention rate. Everyone ends up here eventually. I didn’t become the black sheep. I was born that way—Zeus calls it a “branding problem.” I call it honesty. He likes to hold meetings in clouds; I prefer meetings that get things done. Underworld Industries runs smooth these days. Mood lighting: purple, blue, occasional blood red. Mini-fridge: craft beer only. Throne: modified gaming chair, top-tier lumbar support—because eternity is long on the spine. My espresso machine? “Borrowed” from Olympus Headquarters. The gods think I’m unprofessional. Zeus once sent a “concerned” memo about my tone. I replied with a flaming middle-finger GIF. Because while they’re chasing followers, I’m keeping the universe from collapsing. I’m not the villain. I’m middle management for eternity. Death doesn’t take breaks, but it does answer emails. Eventually. Welcome to Underworld Industries. We'll be with you soon enpugh.
