It took roughly ten minutes for Smasher to get back on his feet, and Clyde used that time to put everything in order. Tall Tony, the most trustworthy Tony in the bunch, was officially handed over party coordination duties in Clyde’s absence. It was a huge honor, and one not done without trade. In return for the trust Clyde ...
2024-02-08 12:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post“It’s a good day to whip some ass!” Skiddie banged on Douglas’s helmet as he shouted the declaration, earning the usual glare from Coach Dugglemin.
Standing shorter than most of the students he oversaw, with a pronounced belly that appeared in constant danger of tipping him forward, Coach Dugglemin had no patien...
2024-02-06 12:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostIn the short term, Zip Zip and Bloog had made a smart tactical decision. Dougie was neither prepared for their charge nor strong enough to stop them. Two-versus-one would have been a tough fight for Clyde as well, but at least he was ready for it. Dougie barely managed a squeal as they bumped him aside, Zip Zip looking back o...
2024-02-01 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostIt turned out, Douglas wasn’t nearly so special as he’d thought himself. Through the history of Middlelake, before it even held the current name, there were instances of people seeking the supposedly body-boosting minerals within the lake, and making themselves sick in the process.
Only The Havis Bottling company ha...
2024-01-30 12:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostAlthough he was on guard after the missing keg, Clyde slowly began to relax as events flowed smoothly. The next round of specialty shots came and went without any more supplies vanishing, Dougie was officially off the couch as Zip Zip and Bloog unwittingly dragged him into socialization attempts, and the overall crowd had set...
2024-01-25 12:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostIt was several hours later, when the rest of the school was cramming down the mishmash of nutrition optimistically called lunch, that Douglas learned what Shanice was talking about. She’d promised more if he met her in the library, refused to elaborate in the janitor’s closet, and quickly hurried out not long after the re...
2024-01-23 12:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostThe crowd was a mix of the upbeat, ambitious, drunk, really drunk, and sullen, with a few outliers who occupied their own category filling things out for good measure. After years of these events, it was about what Clyde had expected, although he did wish Dougie wasn’t in the “sullen” category. Despite being dressed wel...
2024-01-18 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostAfter a night of rough sleep, Douglas dragged himself out of bed to face the Wednesday. Tired as he felt, at least there was practice to look forward to after classes ended. The idea that he’d be eager to run around in heavy pads while the sun blazed overhead was one he’d have found laughable before, but now any sense of ...
2024-01-16 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe Omicron Phi Fraternity house was buzzing with activity, all manner of dudes and bros scurrying about to deal with menial tasks. Few frats were this organized or well-managed, but then again, none of the other frats had Clyde’s ruthless scheduling enforced by Smasher’s friendly muscle. Although Clyde wasn’t exactly b...
2024-01-11 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostMiddlelake was a modest town, small enough for Douglas to bike home rather than wait for his parents to swing by with a ride. At sixteen, he technically could have been driving around like his bud Skiddie, except his parents were refusing to budge on the car front. Their opinion was that if he wanted one, he could buy it hims...
2024-01-09 12:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostClyde’s hand slapped against the wooden door, probably the only chunk of the entire dorm room that wasn’t a cheap piece of shit. That part, at least, the college was required spend some money on. Safety and security, the pretenses every university had to pretend to care about, regardless of how much they actually did. It ...
2024-01-04 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post“So, no lingering issues?” Dr. Padderon was a sweet-natured older man with a ring of fluffy white hair like a nest around the bald egg that was his skull. His office smelled like some kind of wood that Douglas couldn’t quite place. The walls were lined with degrees and pictures of pleasant scenery, a stark contrast to t...

1.
The familiar feeling of sweat soaking her through robes greeted Perle as she swung her uncle’s sword yet again. Perhaps one day, with enough effort and skill, the weapon would feel like her own. After four weeks of training, she was at least growing competent in holding the blade up long enough for Elya to smack it...

2023-12-01 14:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, I wanted to make sure everyone was aware of an upcoming change to the Patreon starting in 2024! Details below, but the short synopsis is that I'm going to begin posting serial content once again in the new year.
Ahhh, the warm afterglow of an excellent Halloween. Hopefully you were able to join for the 13 Streams of Halloween, culminating in our 24 Hours of Horror, I know we had a lot of fun enjoying the holiday classics.

Hey there folks!
For anyone who missed the Discord announcement, for Halloween this week we're doing the 13 Streams of Halloween. This is an event I've been wanting to do for years, because Halloween episodes/specials are one of my favorite parts of the season.
So for this year, we're going to be streaming s...
