《Gemma Go Home》The Management (2)
Advertisement
Fiona and Kevin sat in a transport on their way back to their offices.
“I think Gemma has more potential than Skyler,” Fiona said, “I’m going to put her forth as my recommendation.”
Kevin scratched his head with a tentacle, “Wouldn’t she be exactly what we don’t want? She wants to go home so badly. Why would she interfere with Gosidonia’s interdimensional travel plans for us?”
Fiona clasped her hands, “That’s exactly why I think she’ll be a good fit. She’s got passion and she’s smart enough to realize that if travel becomes viable between dimensions...Wars won’t be small scale anymore. Entire planets and people could get wiped out. Peace wouldn’t be the default in that situation.”
“So, she’d do it for the greater good.”
“Exactly. And the Gosidonian’s will believe her about wanting to go home, because it’s the truth. She’ll be the perfect double agent.”
“Okay,” Kevin said, “I can see that working. But what about Nellie?”
“If the Babysitter class has any similarities to Guardian or Keeper, she’ll get Skills that will make taking care of the baby much easier.”
“Hmm,” Kevin looked out the window. There was sense in what Fiona said, and he did believe Gemma would do a good job. But the whole notion still didn’t sit right with him.
He realized that in the short time he’s spent with them, he did feel a certain protectiveness for the two girls.
“I don’t like it,” Kevin said, “I just want them to have a happy, quiet, peaceful life here.”
Fiona sighed, “As nice as that would be, the higher ups are asking for us to do our duty.”
“I know,” Kevin said, “But that doesn’t mean I have to like it.”

“And besides,” Fiona said, “When have Lost been known to lead quiet lives?”
“I managed it,” Kevin said.
“You’re an anomaly here.”
“I suppose that’s right.”
They arrived at Sector G, “I’m going to go write up that report,” Fiona said, “You don’t have to do anything you feel guilty about.”
The thank you Kevin offered felt wrong.
He headed back to his office in Sector F, wondering if he should’ve tried to persuade Fiona to leave Gemma alone. His tentacles shifted with his unease as he walked.

Children of the Sun
Abigaël Chase, an ordinary physicist with an ordinary life on Earth got transported to another world. A world of magic and war, a world where death was never very far. She unexpectedly survived for many years thanks to a hidden power she didn't think she had. The same power that many people, gods and demons alike, wanted to annihilate no matter the cost. Hunted and cornered, Abigaël bet everything on a daring move which nearly ended up in her death. Having acquired a new body, Abigaël must do everything in her power to return to Earth. For Earth was in danger and only herself held to key to its survival. WARNING : It will contain mature content. I checked LitRPG not because there will be game-elements (pop up screen from the "system", the god or something like that) but because of the world mechanic itself (there will be level up, quest/mission, guild, etc?).

System Supervillain
I was there when it happened. When the walls of reality came crashing down upon us. When everything changed. I was there. I watched it happen. There wasn’t anything I could do, of course. When two veritable demigods are fighting to the death, getting caught in between is a great way to end up very dead. Or worse. That’s when it happened. Raw time crashed with pure paradox, and the universe itself screamed in torment. Night turned to day turned to yesterday and tomorrow and blue and yellow and whale and petunia, and then it snapped back, all at once, with a thunderous roar that was not heard but felt. And then I saw the blue box for the first time. ------------ A System Apocalypse event happens in a world of superheroes, like you would see in the comic books. What happens when the world changes, and heroes and villains are now bound by a System that limits their powers? What will change, and what will remain the same? This story will incorporate Champions/HERO System 5th Edition rules. There will be dice rolls determining the action, and blue boxes with lots of crunchy numbers. If you're not down for that, there are plenty of other stories on this site that you'll like. But if that sounds fun to you, then welcome aboard, and I invite you to see what happens when someone becomes a System Supervillain.
