My body flies out of the shade of the tree, both swords raised high, successfully parrying two arrows. Another arrow pierces straight through my arm but I can still swing it so it doesn’t matter. Battle Focus is active and my vision is good enou...
2023-01-07 15:03:46 +0000 UTC View PostAnd that’s why I’m sitting here, in the shade of an especially large tree, using my [Meditation (Lv.9)] skill. Now that it’s gotten pretty high, I can easily get into that place that took me hours before. The perfect darkness. It makes the p...
2023-01-07 15:00:47 +0000 UTC View PostIt doesn’t seem like I’m going to be attacked by anything anytime soon, so if I wanted to, I could probably hang around here until that timer went down completely. The issue is that I don’t know what happens when the second attempt rolls aro...
2023-01-07 14:56:55 +0000 UTC View Post…Okay?
When I peek open my eyes, the window is gone, but if I close them, it returns again. I have no idea what that is or what it means. It’s some sort of European language I think, maybe Latin? Spanish? Italian? Who knows. What I d...
2023-01-07 14:53:35 +0000 UTC View PostDarkness. Howling winds. A strange whistle reaches my ears, like a loosened arrow, and all of a sudden everything is very, very cold, like a late autumn evening. I stumble forward, and find that the black ground beneath my feet is stiff with cold ...
2023-01-07 14:50:54 +0000 UTC View PostI point a finger at the girl. “And her?”
He blinks at me before shrugging apathetically. “Is it even important? She’s not going to be any useful. If anything, she’ll just be in our way.” I’m not sure whether I...
2023-01-07 14:47:19 +0000 UTC View PostI shoot up to my feet. And the second I do, another one of those screens pop up just before my eyes.

A timer? It seems to be counting down…
So, if I get it right, in 23 hours a...

Where-, where am I…?
Everything is so bright, and my head hur—,

2023-01-07 14:33:10 +0000 UTC View PostBy this point, it’s really only a matter of days until I either starve to death or get killed in some desperate attempt to avoid the aforementioned. Personally, though, I’m leaning towards just starving to death. Worse ...
2023-01-07 14:31:55 +0000 UTC View PostI flip up my visor and try to bring it to my mouth for a big ol’ bite, but it’s too big and won’t go in through the opening. Hum. Considering it’s comprised of data, I should technically be able to just crack it open like any other living ...
2022-09-14 10:19:14 +0000 UTC View Post“Found you! You pay now or you die!”
I startle awake, but instead of either flying to my feet or falling off my bed branch, I find myself tied up on the ground. Oh, and a blaster is being waved in my face. Admittedly, the toy-gun does lo...
2022-09-14 10:18:30 +0000 UTC View PostI whirl around to face the voice. Before me, standing slightly shorter than myself, is a digimon. I assume it is a digimon because I can’t accept the existence of aliens within the digital world.
It just… it just looks like an alien. Tha...

H-, huh?!
I wake up with a startle, and I try to swim up, but instead I just fall back down, my arms grasping for the branch in panic. In the end, I’m hugging the tree like a sloth, upside down, my chest heaving.
Okay. Okay...
2022-09-14 10:16:42 +0000 UTC View PostIt takes a few minutes to re-learn how to walk, and by the end of my extensive training arc, the sun has gone down fully. Shit. Everything has turned dark grey and blue. I still can’t see the moon, but if I catch so much as a glimpse of it, I’...
2022-09-04 12:47:24 +0000 UTC View PostWhen I wake up again, the sun is beating down on me from above. The sky is blue. In the corner of my vision, I can see the leaves of a coconut tree, swaying gently. It smells like sand and my back feels hot. Cold but gentle waves beat against the ...
2022-09-04 12:46:46 +0000 UTC View PostThe massive swarm of fish, resembling more of a solid cloud than a school of fish, moves into action. Now, I can’t say I’ve ever been attacked by a fish before, but I can imagine that a thousand of them, descending upon me in a concentrated st...
2022-09-04 12:45:57 +0000 UTC View PostSee, currently, I’m faced with the most heavy-handed physical representation of the consequences of my actions. Apparently, the herald of my retribution has taken the form of a small seal-looking thing. Funnily enough, it’s only slightly bigge...
2022-09-04 12:45:16 +0000 UTC View PostTo that, I have no answer, so I give none. For a few seconds, Bukamon simply stares at my back. Then he swims a bit further away. “I-, I’m not going to stop you or anything, but… But I just can’t watch,” he whimpers. And then, he swims a...

Oh, damn it all!
I throw the detested little creature to the side. It bounces over the sands for a bit before coming to a stop, where it digs itself back down into the sand. Great, I just lost part of my breakfast. ...

Dad?...
I open my eyes. No, eye. I can hear snoring. It’s dark, but part of this place is lit by a very small flame. That’s… Bukamon. Yeah. Right, I’m not… I’m not at home anym...
2022-09-04 12:43:25 +0000 UTC View Post“Come on Innomon, catch up!” Bukamon calls, and I honestly didn't even notice him starting to swim away. I’ve always had a penchant for slipping into my own thoughts, so I quickly shake my head and begin swimming towards him. He doesn’t se...

2022-09-04 12:41:57 +0000 UTC View Post“Here we are!” Bukamon exclaims cheerily, bringing me out of my brooding. I look around, expecting something edible, only finding an underwater clearing filled with colourful seaweed swaying up from between the rocks, looking a lot like massiv...
2022-09-04 12:41:16 +0000 UTC View PostI’m starting to notice an annoying pattern in the names that these monsters refer to themselves (and me) by. Being a civil and well-meaning human being, I open my mouth to respond. Oh, wait, there’s an eyeball in my mouth. I forgot. Funny thin...
