    Summary

    This is essentially an original work I've been percolating in my head. The feel for it makes me think it could have been an episode of the original The Twilight Zone show from back in the 1950s.

    In summary, this story will follow the afterlife of one USS Thresher (and potentially others) and her crew as she patrols the Atlantic to protect the living from what lives beneath the ocean depths.

    Summary

    After a brief "spring time vacation back home" (you know the type, the brief hiatus of a show where the studio does the beach party episode?), Old Man Shield returns back to the world of Melromarc in search of three family members. This time, he's bringing his youngest daughter, a forty-five year old woman he hasn't spoken to in over twenty years. Will they find their relatives? Will Keel and Rifana stay home for good? Will Retiree remember that, "Oh yeah! This time I brought my cell phone--better take some pictures along the way just to prove to people I ain't crazy."? Tune in and find out.

    Summary

    This short story is written after listening to various reddit relationship stories on YT. I wanted to have my own "final update" in the form of a short story. Just messing around, really. Doubt anyone will read it.

    Summary

    This is a "What If?" re-write I've been working on in my head. The "What if?" part is, "What if the Shield Hero was actually a 70-something retiree who makes better life choices because he's got a lifetime of experience under his belt?"

    Normally I wouldn't even bother posting this but someone on a fan site asked to see it so I figured I'd give it a try here. If folks actually like it, I'll keep up with posting new chapters but if it falls flat (like I think it will) I'll probably stop. So, if you like it, you better comment as such or at least hit the kudo button.

    Also for those that wonder, you better bet this is an author insertion fanfic. Granted, I'm not 70-something but I am closer to that than sixteen. Once I manage to get "The Shield With No Name" out of the city, expect a large divergence from that actual story though.

    Summary

    This is just a place to post some current short stories that I'll be writing after discussing it with my Youngest. Most will probably be AU writings--non-canon and the like.

    4/22 Edit:

    I finally got around to moving the chapters into a more chronological order. It's not perfect but it's doable. I'm writing another short currently that would normally take place in the middle of the Fairytale Ending AU but I think I will stick it after that six parter instead. Not sure as of now.

    Summary

    Notice to M and S: Skip this one. No, seriously, you probably don't want to read erotica written by your dad.

    You may want a brief summary though, because this short has led me to two other shorts in mind, so....

    After a long day of being Head Boy, Joe retires to bed only to be called by Lyseria late in the evening, asking if she can come over. Joe is quickly surprised that Lyseria has brought with her a friend. Where will this lead and exactly what are her intentions?

    Summary

    What if mental abilities existed and through them got us to the stars? How would regular people treat you and more importantly, how would you treat them?

    This story is loosely based on Anne McCaffrey's To Ride Pegasus series. Think of it more as an homage than a fanfic.
