Read MoreFlash Fic Writing Challenge – The Blade
Chuck Wendig’s latest flash fiction challenge is to combine two types of shows/styles into one story. Here’s my entry – Game of Thrones meets Breaking Bad. ** The Blade Merwyn had just come out of the forest when she heard the raised voices, and saw the mill was on fire. Plumes of black smoke rose from the white building, and around it she saw the black clad bannermen of Prince Roald. Most weren’t wearing much in the way of armor, probably because sheer numbers dictated they would win any battle. She was not surprised that Roald’s Chief of the Guards, Sir Eoif, started down the dirt path towards her, two of his lesser men trailing behind his horse. They were both big and well fed, and one had a nose that made her think...
Read MoreThe Venture Brothers Is The Gayest Show On Television … And Proud Of It
You wouldn’t think, of all shows currently on the air, the one with the most gay characters would be a cartoon, and yet, here we are. When it began, The Venture Brothers was a pretty straight ahead (no pun intended) parody of old Johnny Quest cartoons and similar action oriented kiddie cartoons, with a decidedly adult slant. But the world and character building began to get more complex by the end of the first season, and by the second season, it was well on its way to becoming its own thing. Part of being its own thing meant introducing characters who weren’t just straight, and were a bit less than rigidly binary. When Brock Samson, the impossibly lethal bodyguard, found out his old mentor, Hunter Gathers, had a sex change operation,...
Read MoreFrom the Goodreads M/M Group Love Is Always Write event – Soulmates
Original link is here. ** SOULMATES by: Andrea Speed Sometimes, when the power filled him, it was better than sex could ever hope to be. The electricity surged through him, nearly lethal but not at all painful. It was a rush that made his heart pound furiously in his ears and made heat pool in his chest as he tasted metal; it felt like he was made of nothing but pure incandescent radiance. Oh, he could hear the screams around him, feel the alternate powers whipsawing through the air, but he was too incandescent to care. The poor Ravenhurst coven. To think they could stand in his way was laughable. Damian made short work of them, spells like curses flying from his lips as he used a dagger to slit the throat of the warrior mage trying to put a suppression spell on...
Read MoreGoodread M/M Group Story, from the Hot Summer Days event – My Bloody Valentine
The original topic post is here … but for those who can’t read it for a variety of reasons, here it is below. ** MY BLOODY VALENTINE by Andrea Speed “Isn’t this how every bad horror movie ever made starts?” Cody asked, shining his flashlight on the door of the house. It made the aging crime scene tape glow yellow, like a neon string. Drew gave him an elbow in the side, gently so he didn’t actually hurt him. Cody returned it, smirking at him in that way that made Drew both want to punch him and kiss him at the same time. “Hey, this was your idea.” “You’re the one who wanted me to take you somewhere quiet,” Cody replied, tearing away the tape and opening the dusty door. Drew hissed, a kind of surprised, negative noise, but he...
