"Okay, Sid, I know how much ya love wanderin' 'cross offbeat rags, but ya gotta put that scarf away. For cryin' out loud, it's too twenty-third century!" "The SPACE Union flyer is timeless!" Sidney, sitting on a beanbag chair, reached up to her neck to adjust the fringed scarf. Embroidered on it was a conical … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Seventeen: Shemoaniir’s Treasure

Project Super Nex, Chapter Sixteen: Telescope
Traveling to Vestral, weaving through the bustling marketplace with its pungent spices and raucous noises, being greeted by Freye Urewlil — it was familiar for Wyatt. However, he had to drag his feet and his arms ahead of one another in the foyer, as if the air was solidifying against him. This made Freye wave … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Sixteen: Telescope
Project Super Nex, Chapter Twelve: Freye Urewlil, Overseer of Torchen
"Stop whining like a two-year-old, you mushrot, and get the reserve back online!" "You know why that is impossible, so give me some peace. I can't devise — " "Suck it! You're a master techno-engineer, so you can build another way to track it." "You make 'master engineer' and its variants sound uniquely astringent. I … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Twelve: Freye Urewlil, Overseer of Torchen
Project Super Nex, Chapter Eleven: A Scuffle with The Romuteli
"Penelope, I'd like to ask you something," said Wyatt, entering the kitchen, where his Rad-Bio colleague was stirring a pot of oatmeal on the stovetop. She pointed her spoon at him. "Shoot." "How come you never once mentioned that you're Sidney's guardian?" Penelope growled just as the oatmeal burst into furious bubbling. "She told you?" … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Eleven: A Scuffle with The Romuteli
Project Super Nex, Chapter Ten: Quentin Medanar
"Wow," Wyatt mumbled to himself as he circled around a research laboratory with vials, large microscopes, glass cases storing chunky minerals, rings of interwoven wires floating above stone slabs, and other materials. Afterwards, he entered a library, the largest one thus far. Dust layered the dog-eared books. Others looked clean as if they had arrived … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Ten: Quentin Medanar
Project Super Nex, Chapter Eight: Spuring The Horse
"You're pretty early, Wyatt!" "Early bird catches the beetle, Dr. Fulbright. No better time to catch it than today." "No better time indeed," said Xavier, handing Wyatt an antiallergenic napkin, waving an arm to the ajar door of his office. "Come in, come in. Penelope's even earlier than you." Wyatt entered Xavier's office, where Penelope … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Eight: Spuring The Horse
Project Super Nex, Chapter Seven: Geanthoff
"I'm so sorry about this, Wyatt. This could have been a triumph, a down-to-Vestral triumph, but now we've lost so many good Starsapiens, and all for what?" "For an insignificant mission," said Wyatt in his darkest tone, almost a growling one, and his eyes flicked up at Xavier. "A thoughtless, frivolous, shallow, insignificant mission." Xavier, … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Seven: Geanthoff
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 11, “The Lady in the Shoe”
The rational voice in your head may wish to harp on about the pure fun and silliness of the mech fuss in the first half of the episode, while it may calm down during the fervent combat and genuine character beats in the second half. My advice is to simply let yourself enjoy every moment of this action-packed episode.
Project Super Nex, Chapter Three: The Infection
Wyatt took a seat in the crossbus as the first guitar riff of a song by his favorite band, Emovere, played over the radio. He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and drummed his hand on his lap while the crossbus zoomed away from the Cerebral satellite, into the spacetime tunnel. There was … Continue reading Project Super Nex, Chapter Three: The Infection
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 10, “Stealing From The Elderly”
This is by no means a perfect episode, but the setup of our heroes' daring scheme to escape Argus is entertaining enough and supplemented by a sprinkling of RWBY's brand of irreverent humor. (SPOILER ALERT: This is a full breakdown review for "Stealing From The Elderly") RWBY: Volume 6, the anime-style fantasy-action web series by … Continue reading My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 10, “Stealing From The Elderly”
