This has kind of exploded in length, so I'll probably need to extend the whole thing out further than I was planning. But that's for another day.
Anyway, with this done it's back to Industrious! I think I'll be working on a Marvel chapter next.
After that... hmm, maybe a chapter of the Naruto timeline?...

I was forced from slumber by a sudden rush of neurochemicals that sent my consciousness from a perfect standstill to a hundred kilometers per hour in a single instant. Snapping vertical, I blinked in shock for a moment before accessing my HUD and beginning to look through notifications for what could have possibly triggered t...

...and that, as they say, is *that.*
Now we're moving into the next phase of the story, so there will be a time skip. I have two options for where to go with things and will be posting a poll for Patreon supporters to help decide whether there's more material to cover or if you want me to indulge in a larger time ...

I looked over the puppet I'd built and nodded.
As much as Nohara Rin was more than trustworthy enough to be made aware of my secret, the Hokage had judged her a high-risk asset due to how much time she spent out of the village. As such, while he couldn't forbid me from telling her, he'd made it clear that he st...

Okay, so I ended up taking Sunday off since it was the last day my brothers were in town and i wanted to do a bit of family stuff with them, so that delayed this getting out a little bit. Also, um... this one's a lot longer than usual? So extra content for the wait, woo!

“I just don't know, this all seems a bit... dangerous,” Midoriya Inko stated with a frown as she looked over the proposed work contract.
Beside her, Izuku wilted slightly.
I nodded respectfully, taking a sip of my tea. I'd gone a bit traditional to subtly appeal to the mother's subconscious desire for familiar...

Here's another new chapter! I'm on a roll this week!
Hmm... next is probably going to be a return to the baseline Industrious story in Naruto, then... Winning Peace, probably. I'll see about getting a third chapter out next week, too.
Until then, stay awesome and thanks again for the support!

Here are the things the movie left out.
Travel, mud, tedium, and planning.
We inserted into enemy territory during the dead of night, having caught a ride on a 'civilian' freighter which was running neutral cargo under a Portuguese flag to Istanbul. This meant we had been officially cut off from the command struct...

Everything is always complicated.
If anyone asks you to trust them, tells you it's simple, odds are that they're going to ask you for money in the next breath. Obviously, that would be because they're scamming you. Even if they're not, though, the fact that they're asking for money for something simple should b...

Here we are! Next chapter of Kirito's shenanigans in the death game up and running. There were many requests for a more detailed explanation of what Kirito can and can't do with his limited moderator privileges and I hope this chapter answers that.

I'd specifically volunteered for the solar system grand tour for a number of reasons.
First and foremost was simply that I was going a little stir-crazy, even with access to the new immersive full-dive tech I'd developed. Back on Earth I'd fallen into my pre-reincarnation habits of living almost like a hermit...

Well, a few hours late, but it's five o'clock somewhere, right? Also, I had to trash a page and rewrite it, so I think it came out much better for the extra effort.

I heard the door open.
There was a moment of silence as clothing ruffled and the door slowly closed again. I ignored the event and, instead, continued my regular breathing as my mind sought out true nothingness. A good meditative state didn't merely reduce one's consciousness to the measure of one's breathing, instead r...

“Sarutobi-Jounin, correct?” I asked, offering the man a shallow bow to get his measure.

The compound hosting Drakken was an oasis in the rocky and sandy scragland that wasn't quite desert, but close enough for government work. Several miles away from the coast, it was a landscape of jutting crags and weedy trees jutting out between cracks in the dry earth. A few hundred feet out from any of the actual b...
