    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Matthias was getting tired, given the way conversations seemed to take days in this strange dimension. (That, and he was unaccountably distracted by Wallace's lingering looks, to his chagrin.) It wasn't likely he'd have very much more to say before EOD. [[Because it's getting late and I have...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    [[If Lyn's rolled scum again I'll start believing in superstitions. What's it been, now? Four or five games without her having rolled town? More seriously, I think her enthusiasm would be bricked if she'd rolled scum for the hundredth time in a row, and she's posting a lot. That tells me her...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    [[The general idea with our RP Mafia games is that we're playing 'for real' and then flavour our posts through our characters to whatever extent we can. We have a convention of referring to OOC text as being 'guardians' or 'spirits' speaking to our characters, and a certain degree of allowance...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Matthias nodded sympathetically, and shrugged. "We don't need to worry about truly silent individuals, dear sir. Per our host's crystal-clear rules, silent players will be replaced, or even killed off if a replacement can't be found... as I said before." [[Having played a number of games on...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Matthias peered inquisitively at the metagross – a particularly robotic example of the species, it seemed. "I can't tell whether that's an attempt to hint at being a Vigilante – ahem, a 'Violent Do-Gooder', that is – a bluff, or a joke," he said, chuckling mildly. "But yes, we should start...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Matthias swallowed as generally-neglected corners of his brain strove to imagine was memorable things Wallace might be alluding to. The 'scarf' comment, though. He bit down on his tongue, wondering if Wallace didn't realise, or if he truly wasn't disgusted by it... An absurd train of thought...

    "Ah, we have our answer, then. It is we who are the sluts. We are also... bitches, apparently. How theatrical!"

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Matthias, despite himself, felt a rush of blood to his face – which he concealed with his distended tongue. He couldn't recall ever meeting someone quite like Wallace the slut. He found the man... immediately captivating. "Matthias. Likewise." ...In that it was a pleasure to meet him. Not the...

    [THIRD PARTY WIN] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Mafia

    Amid an ocean of blood, a greninja got to his feet and took a long breath. In, then out; calm and collected. He was unharmed, and there was no apparent danger... His tongue extended to lap at the blood. It didn't seem to be flowing actively from the open veins of some great creature, at least...

    [SIGNUPS CLOSED] Odile's 7 Deadly Scumtells Anniversary Mafia

    hiiiiii Sind i'm fucking psyched to fill your sinuses with concrete <3 Name: Matthias Personality: Polite, reserved, and a little mercurial. One might think he was always wearing a mask. Appearance: A fairly standard Greninja, although on this occasion he's wearing a black kimono with a...

    Sixth Anniversary Speed Catnip

    Aight, I'm in. I've chosen a 1150-word scene from Chapter 8 of my fic, Different Eyes. The context, in brief, is that pokémon have been turned into 'mon/human hybrids, aka 'pokémorphs', by a corporate organisation for an unknown purpose. One of the protagonists – a sneasel-morph named Dusk –...

    Sixth Anniversary Drabble Bingo

    I'd like to request a bingo card! Some kind of 'What If?'/AU theme would be neat – What Could Have Been. Dealer's choice if that proves tricky. Apologies for the late request, no worries if I don't get a card by end-of-event.

    Threadmarks: Chapter 8: A Change of Course

    Author’s Note: Hey, folks. Still alive, still writing. Since the last chapter, I’ve been seriously ill, I’ve had to move house, and I’ve been running a ridiculously high-effort forum RP that’s consumed all my spare creative energy. I’m not quitting this fic, though! Not ever. I’m honestly...

    Pokémon The Quest for the Legends

    Time to do another round of backtrack reviewing! Chapter 27 was a cute one. I enjoy that after a fairly asocial dynamic between Mark and his team so far (besides Char', obviously), he finally sits down with them and hears their angsty backstories. One of the things I enjoy about TQftL is all...

    Pokémon Pathways to Arcadia

    Hi, Inke! Making good on my promise to leave you an actual review. ❤️ I'll begin by saying that it's clear you're doing a hell of a lot to evoke a particular ~fantasy vibe~ and I think you're doing pretty damn well at it! There are plenty of little effortful details such as those unown-esque...

    Blitz 2024: Hype and Rec Thread

    Weekly Fic Rec! Aight, so the other day I read @elyvorg 's Three Heads Are Better Than One, which is a delightful oneshot featuring an unusual POV – the middle head of a dodrio. I've not seen a lot of polycephalous POVs before, but these one was certainly well-executed, and did a great deal to...

    Pokémon Three Heads Are Better Than One

    Hi, ely! I loved this one. It's weird in such an endearing way! First up, the prose and dialogue is solid. I especially enjoyed the drip-feed of physical and emotional whump, and the oppressive and inescapable sense of darkness, confinement, time pressure, being a goddamn bird under the fucking...

    Pokémon Gathering Moss [Magical but Mundane 2024 Contest One-Shot, Pikachu Flight 1st Place]

    Okay, so, I loved this. That win was well-deserved, bud. I'd like to start off by saying that I read this aloud to Chibi and near the end I very nearly got properly choked up a couple times and had to regain composure to press on. I think that added something to the experience for me, actually...
