《Parrotise》2 - Obviously...
Advertisement
Tell me, how has the patriarchy justified itself throughout human history?
Do you dare say it isn’t the sexual dimorphism of the human race?
No, you don’t. That is the root of the problem, and so long as it exists the patriarchy will keep coming back, no matter how much progress is made by social movements.
Therefore, the obvious solution that could get rid of it once and for all is reducing the sexual dimorphism to a near negligible level.
Want to know which family amongst extant animal families has the least sexual dimorphism?
It's the Aves! The family that includes all modern birds!
So you see, turning into birds will solve one of the greatest issues humanity faces. We could successfully eliminate the patriarchy!
So join me, support me, and help me save you!
Let me bring you… to Parrotise!

Captain Wayfinder was exhausted. She had been awake for nearly 3 days straight watching the engineers try to recover the formula that Torra had computed.
When she first brought the engineering team to the site they scoffed and told her it would take them a couple minutes at the longest to get her the data even if it was encrypted.
Those minutes had now turned into days with nearly half of the engineering team collapsed on the floor.
First it turned out that the hard drives were actual hard drives rather than SSDs and Torra had somehow disabled the fans that kept them cool so they literally all overheated and melted!
Seeing that the engineers merely shook their heads and put the melted drives into a strange looking machine which was supposedly capable of scanning melted hard drives and, using some machine learning models that they had created, reverse predicted what the hard drives data looked like before it was melted with 99.99% accuracy.

Turns out, that the machine learning model of theirs had never been shown hard drives like these. Torra built each one of the hard drives using a different kind of transistor that even the government, with all of their resources, had never seen before!
That’s when the engineering team started to actually take this seriously. Now, half of them had collapsed in frustration, and the other half were nearly worshiping Torra’s genius. Captain Wayfinder was certain that if they weren’t contracted by the government, these lunatics would have built a shrine for Torra at this point.
Out of the entire engineering team, only their head was different. He was still working diligently, although he would occasionally look through his photo album of cute cats and murmur something about doing this for the kittens. To each their own though, no judgement was gonna come from Captain Wayfinder.
And like this, nearly a week passed until finally, a breakthrough. Not the kind that pleased Captain Wayfinder though.
“Captain Wayfinder, we overestimated him,” the engineering team lead sighed with a deadpan look and eye bags that stretched to his lips.
“What do you mean?” Captain Wayfinder yawned. “You got his formula?”
“No, the computers here really aren’t capable of rendering something so complicated. He was using them to remotely run renders on far more powerful computers located throughout the city. Using new, never before seen, transistors in his hard drives was to throw us off and make us think he actually did all of his work from this lab.”
Captain Wayfinder’s eyes’ twitched.
The entire engineering team, save their leader, immediately fainted in anger, even the ones that wanted to worship Torra.
Indeed, the most likely scenario that they had all thought of was true. And they had just wasted a week. Torra and the data were likely long gone to some foreign country where he was actively synthesizing his ridiculous virus.
…
I really wanted to laugh as I watched those fools from my tree branch.

The Wolf Saga, Wolf that Devours Empires
The Empire of Human is about to enter a turbulent era. A World Power has fallen. But mere hours after dying, he is reborn as a half-human, half-elf boy named Wolf. The story follows this odd boy as he grows up, his relationship with his father and those around him, his lack of common sense from being raised in the wilderness, and his desire for revenge. Witness Wolf's journey as he aspires to climb to the peak of the world to unravel its mysteries, and as he tries to figure out why it’s wrong to decapitate a street thug when the man tries to mug you. “I mean, the man literally said ‘Money or life,’ so what’s the big deal?” Releases Mon/Wen/Fri. (GMT-ish) Trigger warning. The Wolf Saga may not be suited for you if any of the following disturbs you: - The story will have fighting and killing. The gore will not be explicit, but there will be descriptions such as "head burst like a melon", "instantly turned to cinders", "blood splashed/fountained" etc. Most of the violence will be performed by the protagonist, some of it before he reaches his teens. If such scenes bother you, you should probably give Wolf a pass. - The story will have sexual content. It's there for a reason. Once again, these scenes will not be explicit. Genitals will be mentioned sometimes, but never described in detail. Nude bodies will be described in passing, without too many specific details. If you're afraid of nipples, you should probably give Wolf a pass. - The story will have a decent amount of cursing. If you haven't given up by now, this is unlikely to bother you. Still, I believe I should forewarn you that a number of curse words will be making appearance from time to time. - The story will have no small amount of loss for the main character. If you enjoy novels in which everything is fine, the protagonist makes it at the last moment and saves the day... This is not such a story. Life happens. As a reader, I'm annoyed with heroes making it in the nick of time, so for the sake of fairness I used dice on a number of occasions, making do with the result. Sometimes it was anticlimactic, sometimes it was tragic and it led to the story you see before you. Dedication: This story is written for Tired Mom and Wolf, whose arrival the rest of the pack is eagerly awaiting. Thanks: I would like to thank Tired Mom for her proofreading and encouragement over the years. I would like to thank you, Dear Reader, for taking the time to read this big pile of words.

A Tale of the Golden Crown
Life is unpredictable. If you turn left, you could meet the love of your life. Turn right, and be a millionaire. And if you think you are clever, go straight, only to be killed by brick-kun and reincarnate as an Heir to a Duchy. Which is fine as long you ignore plots, rivalries and struggles for power, but even if the tales of the Golden Crown are so many as stars in the sky, they all weigh the same in the end. Follow with me the story of Leonidas, as he tries to find his way in a Kingdom at the verge of a civil war and to find out, what the rules of his rule should be, so that his own crown would not crush him to death. And of course, conquest and plots! And action! I hope… Hi! The story is a little bit inspired by CK2 and Stronghold and serves two purposes: to better my writing skills and to have fun! So, I welcome grammatical criticism and pointing out plot holes, as I would want the story to make sense for my readers too! Have fun! 31.05.2022. Currently in Hiatus, as I hit a wall in writing conversations. So I will try something else and come back later to this story.

For King and Kin: A Fox's Journey
Two fox-kin siblings set out to serve a human king, hoping to secure ties with the royals that had formed in times of war. Yet, much is demanded of them as their father's reputation precedes them. They find the King struggling to keep his vassals from breaking the terms of the armistice. With reports of smuggling increasing and the nation's strategic resources at stake, their father is sent to oversee the border. The king, fearing for his own children, hopes for six more months. Meanwhile, tavern brawls turn bloody as a cry spreads across the land, "Loyalty? Or bread!". What to expect: - cold steel weapons with magic- colonial-esque era- elements of strategy (including logistics)- powerful mages that can't block a crossbow bolt. Except for some earth mages.- realistic depictions of violence. I don't care to focus on it. - other races introduced eventually, if they fit. - Australian english, except when I slip. Not much slang though, I reckon.
