Final Week Fables: Legend of the Five Rings: Junshin

“I am Shinjo Temujin, outrider the Ninth Junghar Legion. And I shall stand for Shosuro Genichiro.”

This month’s short story is a sequel to another one on this site! The first of its kind!

…What do you mean “Who’s even keeping count anymore”?

Before the battle of the fist, comes the battle of the mind, and WHAT IS THAT HAIR?

Final Week Fables: Legend of the Five Rings: Masks

“We all wear masks, Shinjo-san.”

Today’s pic…was actually picked to fit the fic, and not the story written to fit the picture.

Why ask for a trillion yen…when we can demand a BILLION yen?

Some of you may not know what this fic is about, so here’s a brief summary!

Legend of the Five Rings. Samurai Game of Thrones, released before Game of Thrones. Fantasy-Japan, Clans supposed to be united but competing against each other constantly.

And the focus of THIS fic are the scheming plotter Clan: The Scorpions.

Final Week Fables: A Lifetime

Despite how long those grudges burn, these two are untouched by its embers.

Whelp, SUPER late with this post which I should have gotten done last week!

But hey. Partly busy with work, partly just taking time to relax. That’s how it is.

However, I did have this story percolating in my head for a bit!

And what might it be?

Mum says I get to play with the doll next.

Well, here it is! Hope you enjoy it, ladies and gents!

Terrible Tardy Tales: Halt Who Goes There

“Tog not know inner machinations of Grog brain!”

Suuuuuuuper late update. Chalk it up to laziness and writer’s block. But one way or another, the show must go on!

And what is the image inspiring the tale?

“Wait, wait, wait, the rulebook says you can only attack as a reaction if I leave your threatened area-“

Well. Now to see if it was worth the wait! Ehhhhhhhhhhh.

Final Week Fables: Giantrification

The very nice plot of land, being an inanimate piece of geography, was powerless to protest.

Neeeeaaaaarly late with this, mostly because I was relaxing this weekend. But here we are with a short story, folks! And the inspiring image is:

Sim Kingdom

Alrighty, let’s see what we’ve got here!

Final Week Fables: Forests & Fey

“We do not have a dozen different bonuses boosting your rolls for the absurdly bloated Armour Classes and Difficulty Checks.”

So I’m super late with this, mostly because I actually used my weekend resting. But I soldiered on and kept writing! …ish! …And got it done the week after!

So what’s February’s picture inspiring my story? The picture you probably saw as the first thing you noticed about this post?

None other than THIIIIIS!

Is this…a game within a game?

So…let’s get into it, then!

Final Week Fables: Oathkeeper

“Therein lies the difference between a tragedy and a waste.”

Missed an update for last week because I was taking it easy on the weekend and getting by in work and practice for things. Hope everyone’s doing OK!

But yes, monthly short story time! And what’s the image for this month? Or…last month, I suppose?

I would like to insightfully fight the desert.

Oh boy. Here we go.

Final Week Fables: Examples Of Play

Scratch that. Genocidal tomb robbers are too chaotic. They never match the simulations.

Aaaaand we’re back to our semi-regularly scheduled monthly short story!

But what is the image which is the source of the story this time?

Are those…guns??? THIS ISN’T EBERRON, JEFFREY. WE’VE BEEN OVER THIS.

Yep. Let’s see what I’ve gotten up to!

Final Week Fables: Good Intentions

“In another two centuries, I’ll be dead.”
“That sounds like a ‘you’ problem.”

Very late with this, mostly because I spent the weekend relaxing and watching Avatar: The Last Airbender, and then the following week trying to complete this. Which reminds me, you should go watch it!

…NOT THAT I’M SUGGESTING YOU GO ENJOY BETTER WRITING THAN MINE, PLEASE, I WANT CLICKS!

Ahem. And this week’s image for the story is?

Sir? Is this going to be on the test?

Aha! But fun fact: I asked for story ideas from some friends first, then found an image to fit that. One of the rare times it happens with my short stories! So what’s THIS one about?

Final Week Fables: Eye For An Eye

“An eye for an eye…leaves the whole world blind.”

It’s that time of the month when I write a short story!

And what’s today’s image?

Gruumsh3
D&D is all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Funny thing, though. Normally, I pick a picture and write something based on it. This time? I had the story in mind and looked for an image that could represent it.

Now let’s get ready to rumble!
