The Last Man Standing
In the far off future a lone sentient weapon survives the horrors of a war and finds himself without purpose. This is the tale of Mentuc as he struggles to find a new path of life, alongside the aid of his beloved wife. Of course, the past has a way of not letting go and history is always written by the victors... An interactive story where we follow the life of Mentuc both in his present day life as a married civilian and his past as the commander of the infamous Genesis Battalion, an entire unit made up of nothing but biological sentient weapons that made nations tremble. Follow the tale of the Empire's galactic showdown with the genocidal Kra'lagh race as betrayal and desperation rage all across, while his wife tries to mend the wounds that years of war and the loss of all he knew and cared for have left him, with one enigmatic and problematic exception. The first (currently being written) focuses on Mentuc's origins, Operation Angry Comet and a smaller part of the present.
8 162The Rig Mechanist’s Maintenance Report
More than a generation had passed since the creation of a new type of weapon, one that outclassed anything else, but the creator put limits on the technology to prevent it from being used in aggressive combat. With the powerful humanoid weapons, rigs, there to stop battles from breaking out, new ways of taking land had to be developed. That led to the sport of rig combat; powerful weapons pitted against each other with countries betting land and resources on the outcome. But it wasn't just the machines and pilots that competed; the workers that ensured the rigs were able to fight had battles of their own. A mechanist's fight begins before the first shot is fired and their minds are their best weapons.

8 440On Tilt [in progress]
Going on tilt is like falling in love: both make you foolish and should be avoided at all costs. *BROOKEI hate Dean Hollis.I tell myself that every day. And some days, I almost believe it. Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen. I was trying to think of a good pickup line when she walked up to our door and gave Brendan a hug.My next thought was, fuck my life. Because that dime? She was my best friend's baby sister. And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content
