"What are you talking about, Night Terror?"
The sneer was obvious in his voice. He hated me almost as much as I hated him. The details weren’t important. Let's just say one of my plans ended up humiliating the great Rex Roth in front of th...
2025-04-23 01:09:24 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! Another update on advance chapters for Smokin' Hot Alien Girlfriend. I was ahead by about five chapters, but decided to mix up chapter order a bit to get to some action sooner so I'm now one ahead.
The current plan is to try and revi...
2025-04-22 15:01:18 +0000 UTC View PostI took a deep breath. I needed to get control of this situation before it spiraled out of control.
Okay, I needed to get control of this situation before it spiraled even more out of control than it already was.
"The Terran Navy and th...
2025-04-22 14:58:43 +0000 UTC View PostI felt a familiar sense of panic. The same panic I remembered coming out of foldspace and seeing a livisk station and battle fleet floating there in the inky blackness. Waiting for us.
Knowing Jacks had fucked up. That I should’ve been a l...
2025-04-22 14:56:35 +0000 UTC View PostI looked to Rachel, and then to John.
“If that isn’t the universe trying to fuck me over at a dramatically appropriate moment then I don’t know what it is,” I said.
“It could just be that we got too close to a hunk of rock or...
2025-04-22 14:51:45 +0000 UTC View PostI sighed as I stared at him. Then I looked over to Rachel who was glancing nervously between the two of us.
Like she could sense there was something important that was going on here. Something her husband wasn't telling me. As much as I coul...
2025-04-22 14:51:07 +0000 UTC View PostI sighed as I leaned back in the chair in my quarters. I looked up at the ceiling. It wasn't anything special, just a bunch of bulkhead, but it was paradise for me.
Maybe I was just on a picket ship, but any time I was on a ship and I was ou...
2025-04-22 14:49:51 +0000 UTC View PostI held up the ladle and took a small taste of the sauce. It wasn't quite right, but it was getting there.
I reached down and added just a little pinch of garlic. Just enough that it would add a little bit of extra flavor to the thing.

2025-04-22 14:49:20 +0000 UTC View PostI like to think I managed to hide that jump. I didn't like it when people snuck up on me like that, but if there was anyone who could do that, it was Commander Keen.
I turned to regard her with what I hoped was a baleful stare. Not that it b...
2025-04-22 14:48:24 +0000 UTC View PostI sighed and leaned back in my command chair. I looked down to my cup of tea, Earl Grey, hot, sitting on the other arm rest. I took a sip and frowned.
It wasn't exactly hot anymore.
The stuff was a cliché among people who went to the ...
2025-04-22 14:47:05 +0000 UTC View Post“Well that was an interesting introduction to life on a new ship,” Connors said.
I reached out and clinked my glass against hers. There was a green liquid, not glowing in this case, in mine. I swirled it around and there was a slight spa...
2025-04-22 14:46:35 +0000 UTC View PostI stepped into the CIC and had a look around. It had the same look as pretty much every other CIC in any other ship in the CCF, or any other ship in the Terran Space Navy for that matter.
Only there were something very different about this o...
2025-04-22 14:45:40 +0000 UTC View Post"Do you think they're going to be annoyed?" Connors asked.
"Why would they be annoyed?" I asked, turning to arch an eyebrow at her.
"Because we got our orders to report immediately a few hours ago," she said with a shrug. "Maybe the pe...
2025-04-22 14:45:08 +0000 UTC View PostI started making my way down to the gangways that led to various ships attached to the station, but a vibrating at my side pulled my attention away. I held up my watch to have a look, and it told me I was going in the wrong direction,
“Wha...
2025-04-22 14:43:51 +0000 UTC View PostI leaned against the wall next to my quarters and put my hand up on the panel there. It wasn't strictly necessary. The room knew I was out here, but it was one of those nights where I needed something to lean against.
The door swished open. ...
2025-04-22 14:43:07 +0000 UTC View Post"Okay. I don't know what your deal is, but…”
"But you're going to listen to me if you know what's good for you," he said.
His voice was gravelly, and it didn't sound like it was something he was putting on. Not like Harris, who had...
2025-04-22 14:41:09 +0000 UTC View PostConnors finished her tale of woe and took another sip of her drink. Then she pulled the cup away, still glowing and green. And she downed the rest of it in a single gulp.
There wasn't so much as a sniff, let alone a cough or a splutter this ...
2025-04-22 14:38:43 +0000 UTC View Post"First time?” I asked, looking to Connors as we got out of the admiral’s office.
I walked a couple of steps away and leaned against the bulkhead. I looked out the window on the other side of the hallway. It looked out over the space stat...
2025-04-22 14:38:04 +0000 UTC View PostI stared at the holoblock as the livisk ship limped away from the station. I wondered if they actually managed to find anything while they were in there.
Probably not. The kind of mass drivers and explosions we pumped into that station didn'...
2025-04-22 14:37:31 +0000 UTC View PostWell, shit. That meant I needed to get back to the bridge, and I needed to get back sooner rather than later.
“Atkinson, this is Stewart,"
"Go ahead, Captain," the major said.
"I don't think I'm doing much good coming down here...
2025-04-22 14:36:59 +0000 UTC View PostDamn it. They weren’t supposed to do this. Everything I’d ever heard said they would stay nice and docile once you took them captive.
So much for the briefings from the Intel pukes. Not that I was surprised.
"You're my prisoner," I...
2025-04-22 14:35:48 +0000 UTC View PostI stared at the blue sparkling alien in front of me. I looked at the intricate design that ran over her form fitting armor. Then to her beautiful face that I knew was covered by a shield that would keep her from taking damage if someone got in a h...
2025-04-22 14:35:16 +0000 UTC View Post"So where are we?"
I held up a finger. I hoped that was a universal gesture between humans and livisk.
It was another point in the favor of those people who said there was once a galaxy-spanning hominid civilization that we had very si...
2025-04-22 14:34:29 +0000 UTC View PostI looked around in a panic. This wasn't the kind of thing I’d trained for. I was supposed to order people to arm photon torpedoes and fire it on the Romulans or Klingons.
Except when humanity went out into the stars we didn't find Romulans...
2025-04-22 14:34:02 +0000 UTC View PostI looked around the edge of the corridor and was greeted by sizzling blasts of livisk energy weapons for my trouble.
Thankfully they weren't using actual laser weapons, just charged plasma. That would really ruin my day if it hit me, but it ...
2025-04-22 14:33:22 +0000 UTC View PostThe warehouse looked abandoned, but I knew that was a lie. The transmission had been coming from somewhere in this area, though it shut off as soon as whoever was controlling it realized we were flying straight for the source.
Only it was to...
2025-04-22 01:24:38 +0000 UTC View PostI turned and looked down at CORVAC. I went into a dive. And I couldn't help but go for a little dramatic flair. I held one arm out in front of me as I dove.
My only regret was I didn't have a magnificent cape flying behind me trailing ...
2025-04-19 00:51:59 +0000 UTC View PostThe robot chassis was a humanoid shape with telescoping metal tentacles and weapon slits that opened all around it to do damage in a bubble of destruction. It sported a single eyestalk with a glowing red eye on top rather than a humanoid head.&nbs...
2025-04-17 20:47:06 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! I'm working on getting the backlog for Smokin' Hot Alien Girlfriend up to the point where I can release advance chapters. It's taking a little longer than Villains Don't Date Heroes! as I'm adapting a previous story that requires filling i...
2025-04-17 20:44:03 +0000 UTC View PostA flash of light hit me followed by the familiar whine of the teleporter and I was surrounded by one of my suits. The combat suit. The very same variety I'd used just a few weeks before when I was going toe to toe with Fialux.
But this one w...
