Buzz, buzz, buzz, the alarm clock rang. Today was a usual workday, and at six in the morning she was up. The first thing she ever did was open up her wardrobe, watching the double doors slide open as her gaze automatically fell on her display of undergarments. "Black or purple..." Marnie questioned with a murmur, just thinking for a moment or two. "Frilly...
Chapter 1: The Experiment Beth was eager to get started on the day's experiments. At 24, she was already working on her second PhD – this one in bio-chemistry. She had previously gotten a degree in physics, which led to her research into Theta Radiation. Beth believed that theta radiation had healing properties and could lead to a medical breakthrough. Unfo...
Foreword: I discovered Lovecraft as a teenager. I read everything he wrote. Later, August Derleth started Arkham House, publishing to preserve HPL's works and provide a place for the Mythos to continue. Over time, I read all those stories too. Then, I followed the contributing authors as they explored Mythos themes in their later books. Perhaps I got a littl...
I took a deep breath as my gaze moved across the rows of sophisticated equipment. The room was a bit stuffy from the heat being generated by all of it running at the same time. We had adjusted the air conditioning down twice already, but there was only so much it could do to make headway against the massive amount of power that was being consumed here today....
It was a warm summer in the Land of Fire. Our happy go lucky protagonist was currently on his way back from a mission. He stopped about a half hour away from Konoha in order to train a bit. "Man, that was a good warm up. At this rate I'll become Hokage in no time. Believe it!" Naruto yelled. He walked over to a large boulder before he charged up a...
Thanks for the comments and feedback! I'm working on part 2, but got distracted with other stories The flyer was half-hidden under a layer of other, competing advertisements on the bulletin board, but a phrase caught Morgan's attention as she glanced at it on her way past: "multiple orgasms?" She glanced around the empty hallway in the basement floor of...
Jon was hungry. He could scarcely believe that it had come to this. After years in the military he had entered college but through some loopholes he found himself without any financial aid. His income while in the military had been high enough that he did not qualify for much assistance. He had just been laid off from a high paying part-time job and the best...
I was a fresh off the boat foreign grad student. The first semester was tough in terms of adjusting to the new environment and being away from family and friends. What made it worst was the long distant relationship with my girlfriend back home. With thousands of miles between us, and no cheaper way to communicate (pre-social media days) the relationship did...
My mind had been a complete blur ever since last night. I'd arrived home, somewhat in a trance. Thank God my parents didn't pick up on my strange mood and just assumed I was tired. Not that I was able to get much sleep. I went over and over what had happened in that prep room. I'd performed oral sex on Mr. Bibby. Yes, that really did happen. I'd executed my...
"There are some kinks to be worked out, for sure," Bill Forrester agreed with the group of men and women around him. "Side effects, bodily responses, more accurate predictions, et cetera, et cetera. But we're not going to be able to isolate the secondary responses to the deuterotone without further testing." "Meaning...?" This came from Ken Hastings, Forres...
