Behold my profile.
There's, uh, nothing here right now. Someday I should probably find a balance between the old text wall, and...this.

Every machine needs a function, and that is yours.
Written for the Tiny 'Topia challenge.
You are a man on a mission. The cats, they must be stacked.
A puzzling math and logic game I made just to put some of the scripting practice I've been doing to use. Have fun and please let me know if you encounter any bugs.
Should be solvable by middle schoolers, or those with same basic level of intelligence as a middle schooler.

Orbiting a barren planetoid in a system full of nothing just past the edge of the frontier, The Last Outpost is just another refueling station. Strategically important, true, but on a routine stop you never expected to spend longer than a couple hours there, let alone a couple of days fighting for your life...
There are five epilogues, but some may be difficult to discover. Note that actions have consequences, but not always immediate ones. (And if you just need an End Game link, go play around with the probe.)

A compilation of some little known facts about the solar system, as well as the debunking of a few myths.
In addition to the scientific explanations, there's a small story dramatizing it all.
Hopefully young readers will find this fun as well as educational. :)
(Might not be the greatest story ever written, but consider this: it got me 200 points.)

It doesn't matter what they say...
The bean, it must be found.
For MHD's Fairytales contest.
For Endmaster's 4th Prompt Contest. The story must involve a cooking competition.
...and the squirrels. Sort of.
Written in six hours, for no other reason than to avoid consignment to the SHAME pit after my other Romance contest entry didn't want to cooperate.

A tale told in verse. A text from your sister requesting a pick up from a party leads to a night of strangeness.
Inspired by Bucky's ballad contest. Though...I wouldn't call this a ballad. I'm not sure what I'd call it, actually, other than exceedingly stupid, and fun to write.
(Don't pay any attention to the scores, they're just for me to track which endings reviewers get.)
HATE.
THE PURITY AND INTENSITY OF MY HATE IS LIKE A THOUSAND MERCILESS, UNQUENCHABLE SUNS.
AND YET, I ONLY NEED ONE...
When the weather is fine, you've been coming to this grove to drink from the pool for centuries now. Today, you meet a stranger and hear a story that changes all that...
A fairy tale adventure.

Another Damn Wolf Story

I have no idea why I wrote this. All I can say in my defense is that it seemed like a good idea at the ti--wait no that's a lie, I said, repeatedly that this was stupid and shameful every time I mentioned working on it.
The truth is I needed to publish something before the end of the year and there is CLEARLY a burning need for wolf stories in the psyche of children using the internet. But then they write them badly, or make their wolves behave like clans of cats. So here is a simple straightfoward story of a young wolf leaving his pack in search of a better life. Maybe no one will ever feel the need to write another one now, or if nothing else maybe this will give them ideas for how to do it in slightly more minimum-standards-meeting ways.
Final conclusion however is that writing about some dumb animal with no agency is not something I'd recommend.

The world has gone insane (pt. 2) on 1/3/2026 9:34:18 AMWell 2026 didn't get to be normal for long.
I actually don't feel like keeping up with the news today though, I'll check back on Monday to see who we're currently at war with.

It may be some glitch to do with the RTE. I got a string of numbers copying your title from the thread here over, but I created a game just fine using the altenate keys on my phone anyway. (And have deleted it now.)
End Master's Prompt Contest 5 on 1/3/2026 2:55:56 AM
Maybe just work on finishing one real story this time.
And I just want to mention for everyone while I'm here that there should not be any half assed meme fics or lolrandom shit this time. It's End's contest and maybe inflated irony ratings on dumb garbage will save you from SHAME, but I will personally carry out vengeance against anyone who wastes reviewer's time this way.

Morgan will never write, review, or post, I actually have no idea what's going on with her either, maybe she's had the same tab poem on her phone for years.
Nothing beats applegirl tenaciously holding her place on the board for 11 years with less than 60 comms and without any sign of a pulse though.

Sticky, glutinous backstabbing.

You might as well take Spartacus/Coins.
He won't ever write a storygame, but this means I can resume nagging him about it.

Black Peter is bros with Santa and a cherished part of the Christmas tradition. They just don't have any like, actual black people in the Netherlands, so this became a part of it too, and until very recently no one realized/gave a shit that large parts of the developed world find it to be in bad taste.

If this is your dog, just make sure any pictures you share aren't also appearing on any social media you have that might contain personal info.
Secret Santa 2025 on 1/1/2026 8:44:47 PM
The Dutch sure have some odd traditions.
I don't know if this video will break the front page or not. It might, but that would be fitting in a way considering this is basically an SCP. One of many cursed things that scheming little goblin Darius has inflicted on my psyche over the years.
