Nate came to with the sounds of battle in his ears. Attacks whizzing and sizzling, people shouting. Something roaring, deep and furious. Eien? Of course. He'd been on the way to--Nate pushed himself to his feet, hands already balling into fists, heart pounding. Except Eien wasn't there...

Twenty-seven chapters of reviews will take care of all my challenges + S-tier this round: 3 (+1 bonus, prize review) + 5 + 4 + 10 + 5 (+1 bonus, prize review) Total of 29 BLCs.

Sup Navar! I’m here for one of your Blacklight prize reviews. I’ve seen a few of your characters around in various RPs, so it’ll be fun to see what the story they come from is like. I’m going to start out with the first five chapters, which I figure should give me a good feel for the story. And...

Nate wasn't entirely sure why Bahamut felt the need to be so hush-hush about all this business with the dogs--who exactly was he worried would find out? There was that one random Soda substitute out there yet (Jesus Christ, they really needed to track that guy down), but other than that...

Nate sighed as he watched the Porygon go bouncing off. He'd kind of been hoping that the substitute was a now kind of thing they could try, but Chip clearly wasn't feeling urgent about this. "I guess we got to go see whatever fuckery Bahamut's got planned up at the tower," he said. At least it...

The itching only got worse, and then Nate sneezed explosively, dusting the barrier with a mist of mucus. "Ugh. What the fuck?" he said. Rocky's ears stood straight up. "I think that was Radiance!" he said. "I think you did a Radiant thing!" "What? Don't be an ass." Nate sneezed again, more...

A conversation between Diyem, Maple, and Telum's dark matter? Damn. What Nate wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall for that one. "Well, nothing more to see here," he said to no one in particular, turning away from the arena. "Show's over." He waved vaguely to Owen as he passed, making for the...

Nate badgers Rocky into writing him a letter to take to Karat. If Karat shows up right away when he visits, he'll relate the news about the mewtwo to him in person; if not, he'll leave the letter by the edge of his psychic barrier to pick up later if he'd like. The letter Rocky wrote says this...

"Ha!" Nate smacked the railing. "Knew it. There's the bastard." Maple wasn't going to be very happy about getting tricked into this one. But she could have saved them all some time and trouble if she'd just agreed to let Diyem look her over back at the Guild. Of course, that raised the...

Rocky watched the parasite eagerly as it nudged the ultra stone back and forth, but frowned when it ultimately turned away again. "Aww. Well, maybe I could go in there instead? I guess I don't know what I would really do." He looked thoughtfully into the chamber. "See if you can get Xernatus on...

Nate relaxed when Maple burst back out of the shadows, but he stayed where he was, staring down at the arena. Yup, exactly. He hadn't doubted that Diyem wasn't trying to get rid of Maple. Much. Not for more than a couple seconds, anyway. "Wants witnesses, probably," he said with a glance back...

It was... it was probably still okay. Diyem wouldn't have been able to tell anyone ahead of time what he planned to do, or he wouldn't have been able to get Maple where he needed her. Right? Nate stood up himself and leaned out over the railing, clutching it hard. It wasn't like he could make...

"Okay," Rocky said brightly. He produced an ultra stone from his bag and held it out to Chip. "Do you still have more of these somewhere? This is almost the last one that Marshtomp has. He'd probably like a few more if you have any left. They're pretty handy!" Meanwhile, Nate nodded along with...

"I dunno," Nate grumbled. "But I figure we want to at least start by not being a dick about it." He shot the mightyena a glare, then moved up closer to the parasites. Up close they, really looked pretty unappealing, didn't they? Especially the big oozy guy. "Have you seen any difference between...

The walk to Chip's lab from Rocky Road was a long one, and Nate was out of breath well before he made it to the set of stairs that led down under Arceus' hill. He hadn't really been back since the mewtwo broke out of here a couple months ago--the place was looking pretty slick after it had all...

"Here it comes..." Nate murmured, then jumped a little when Owen stood up. He'd been so focused on what was going on down below that he'd forgotten the guy was even there. "I... I think it's okay," he said nervously. It really didn't sound okay, but there was no reason for Diyem to, like, murder...

Exquisite Corpse 2021 It's time once again to kick off our annual run of exquisite corpses! An exquisite corpse is a writing game where where participants come together to write a story... with each only being able to see the last couple sentences of the previous writer's work! Anything can...

All right, looks like we have our themes. Thanks a ton to everyone who volunteered to run a corpse--I'll contact you once sign-ups close and we know how many of each theme we'll need. Sign-up thread up shortly! See you soon.

"Yeah, same thing he was doing back at the Tree," Nate muttered. Once Diyem got properly set up, Maple was hosed--unless she had a secret up her sleeve, too. What was all his messing around with the hammer, though? What was he hoping to see?

It was probably a mistake to offer Nate any of the popcorn. He ate it automatically and fast, without really paying attention, and looked like he might go through the entire bag if not stopped. "Whass that?" he muttered mushily, squinting up at one of the battle screens. The air sparked and...
