Glad to have you all! Only one thing--if you'd like to request a specific card, please do narrow it down to one; it's going to get really complicated for me if I have to try and figure out card assignments across multiple people asking for one of three or so. @Inkedust Do you have any one of...

Thousand Roads Tarot Our deck is COMPLETE! See all the cards here, or discover your fortune here! As a special art event this year, we're going to work on creating a Pokémon-themed Tarot deck! Tarot decks were originally intended for typical card games, but over time have become more...

All right, I definitely said I hoped the previous update would be the last, buuuut that didn't make much sense. Instead I hope this is our final judging update of the contest! Two judges have completed their full ranking of fics, and on the whole I'm hopeful that we'll come close to hitting our...

The 2022 contest season is winding down, so let's close it out on a high note by revisiting last year's first-place winner, "Methods of Support!" Whether you missed Equitial's entry earlier or simply want a chance to revisit it, I hope our author interview will give you some insight into the...

Content warnings: Blood, death, not graphically described "Sir? Did you hear me, sir?" Nate came back to himself with a start. It was bright. What had he just been... something to do with water? But the thought slid away from him before he could do more than brush his fingers against him...

Okay, the results are in, and they're giving us... an absolute TIE between the zine and Tarot deck options! As the Tarot option requires much less admin than a zine, I think it makes for a better introductory event and am breaking the tie in that direction. Expect to see a sign-up thread in the...

Sorry to see this one go, but thanks for sharing the beginning with us! Best of luck with the rest of the quest.

Hey, happy birthday! Hope you have an awesome day.

While Thousand Roads' primary focus is on fanfic, we also have a number of visual artists knocking around the community. In the past year or so there's been an increased interest in trying some kind of community event focusing on visual art, so this September, we're going to try one out! Since a...

Indeed, it's time now for our six-week check-in! At this point, one of the judges is done with their rankings and reviews; one hopes to complete their work within the next week; and one is at 14/21 reviews completed. With any luck, this will be our last check-in! And as before, while we wait on...

We're back with another flashback interview! This time we're taking another look at Shiny Phantump's "Dark-Clothed Small Human," the second-place winner of last year's contest! "Dark-Clothed Small Human" by Shiny Phantump Available on: TR Judges' Comments Interview With the Author How was...

So these were the keys to other mythical pokémon's worlds, huh? Disappointing that they weren't a way home, but that was interesting anyhow. Though they couldn't possibly all be special mythical keys, right? No way there were this many legendary pokémon around. Nate had a strong suspicion that...

hell yes let's commit some crimes

Whatever Mightyena and the klefki might be talking about over there, at least it didn't look like it was going to turn into a fight or nothing. Clink didn't sound any better, really, when it spoke up next, but it didn't sound worse. What it actually said, though... Darkrai? The one he'd seen...

After the noise and chaos they'd left behind in the restaurant, the relative calm on the far side of the portal was almost eerie. A few people looked to be horizontal, out cold after that fucking wild battle, but most people didn't look hurt. The birds and Wallace even looked like they were...

To say that everything happened at once would be a fucking understatement. From Celebi popping up out of nowhere, to Odette going full Rambo mode (where the fuck had she gotten a fucking gun), to slamming straight from the dorms into screeching smoke alarms, everything drenched, and Evil Orzo...

Odette was quick with an explanation, and to patch the hoopa up a bit, too. It certainly looked a lot rougher than the hoopa that had gone to dinner with Xavian's gang. You could almost imagine it had been poisoned. Nate didn't find the explanation itself all that reassuring, though. "Never...

Nate had to smirk when Odile revealed she'd snagged the prison bottle, whether she'd been supposed to or not. He couldn't say whether that was quick thinking or just a natural inclination to be a little shit, but he wasn't going to argue with it. They might not have a clue how to use the damn...

Odette and Wes' investigation had clearly gone much better than Nate's own, given how they'd blown out of the room they'd been searching like they were expecting Xavian to show up any minute. Or, hell, maybe they hadn't found anything except a sign that Xavian's party was going to head home and...

deeply disappointed that Gilliver nixed the fake blood tbh
