Red by JackSimth

Chapter 5

When my senses fade in, I'm looking up at a canopy of purple circular leaves held up by red branches. I sit up, and find I know exactly how to use my new body: It doesn't feel awkward. I examine myself: Hands look human enough… dark brown skin, four fingers and a thumb on each ha...

Wrong Way by JackSimth

Chapter 6

Wait… the sun is going *down*, not up. By the time I notice, I have already flown a couple hours in the exact wrong way. Yay. Well… I took a rank in Survival, and picked it as one of my class skills, with the idea of eventually getting a Creature Companion… but it al...

Finding a job by JackSimth

Chapter 8

I focus on Fallen Fey this time. I keep the Destruction blast, but otherwise go all in: Greater Link (to keep the things I pick up for an hour), Long Step (because teleportation gets me out of jams), Feline Omens (for the cat shadow, it's actually pretty nasty), and Pixie Sticks...

Chapter 11

As we walk down the bare metal hallways, I ask a question, “You're not armed?” The stocky human in armor wordless holds out a hand, and a crystalline void manifests between his fingers. I get it, “Ah,you have a connection to cosmic forces.” A Solarian, probably. It's...

Me by JackSimth

Chapter 12

The messenger isn't hard to find, the ship isn't that big: Most of the structure is either cargo space or machinery of various kinds…and it helps that there are labels on the doors and it's right across from the barracks: I was definitely tired when I went to bed. I check the com...

A learning experience by JackSimth

The transition to the Drift goes smoothly, and then I'm powering everything back up and we're off with our shiny new cloaking device hopefully keeping us safe enough. We settle into our normal shipboard routine as we fly through the colorful void: I feed everyone breakfast in the...

Booze by JackSimth

Chapter 21

Frank gets his kit out and goes to work. After a few minutes of testing, he chuckles, “It's not too bad… an aphrodisiac, pheromones, some sugar, some flavoring… and oh yeah, it's about a hundred fifty proof,” the elf shakes his head. “You don't have to worry about passing disease...

Dunno, and not finding out by JackSimth

Chapter 23

I head back, and report, “Okay… good news: I *should* be able to get you close to your original forms… it's just going to take a day.” “What!” Gregory grumbles. “I think you mean why,” Bob's deep voice rumbles. Eh, may as well… “Okay, so I mentioned I'm cursed,...

Suddenly: New Ship by JackSimth

Chapter 25

As I'm wondering, we get an alert, “We have company,” over the coms… Bob's watching, apparently. We run to the bridge and see it on the screens: A tug. It's a Small ship, only seats two: The draw if the thing is the little issue that it has a Heavy weapon mount - the only...
