September One-Shots?

EDIT: Mobile app apparently is glitched to not allow multiple selections. Try on browser to fix!

I’ve compiled a list of ideas from here and Discord that I feel comfortable writing. Pick the ones you want (multiple choices allowed, so browse all the options). More info on the plans below!

The current plan is to have a mini-miniseries (2 to 3 parts) at the beginning and end of the month, with what you want to see in the middle.

If there’s something you want that’s not here, feel free to suggest; it could always appea...

The Nature of Predators - Human Exterminators 2 (5/9)

Rauln picked up on my distracted demeanor from the moment I picked him ...

The Nature of Predators 143

Memory transcription subject: Captain Sovlin, United Nations Fleet Command

Date [standardized human time]: February 21, 2137

Tyler attempted to slam the door in my face, but I drove my shoulder into it with force that could only stem from passion. The memories of stabbing my claws into an Arxur’s neck on Sillis, while trying to save Marcel, were fresh; everything that had gone wrong in my life started and ended with the grays. The reason I tortured the kind-hearted human was b...

The Nature of Predators 142

Memory transcription subject: Chief Hunter Isif, Arxur Rebellion Command

Date [standardized human time]: February 21, 2137

When the United Nations contacted me after the Summit, I expected to be chastised for my unannounced arrival, shirking Olek and Lisa’s watch. Instead, Secretary-General Zhao offered to confide the secret he was keeping about the Arxur; the human was emphatic that this had to be kept under wraps, even from Felra, Kaisal, and anyone else in my inner circle. I landed a shuttl...

This bar was a place I’d heard about through the grapevine; a V...

The Nature of Predators 141

Memory transcription subject: Captain Sovlin, United Nations Fleet Command

Date [standardized human time]: February 21, 2137

Hunter was summoned to a UN base responsible for Archives prisoners, accessible by a short shuttle ride to an undisclosed location. Tyler had been working on interrogations on-site since our return to Earth, though the more I pressed, the more I got the feeling that claim wasn’t representative of the truth. While my amber-eyed relic of the 1960s was finalizing the docume...

Memory transcription subject: William Kane, Human Exterminator

Date [standardized human time]: January 19, 2137

Fyron sat beside me for the entire ride, using me as a human shield from Rauln. The Farsul exterminator had been my first friend on the force, and though I respected he...

The Nature of Predators 140

Memory transcription subject: Slanek, Venlil Civilian

Date [standardized human time]: February 20, 2137

The lack of ventilation inside the statue rendered it quite stuffy, which led to me donning an environmental suit with internal cooling. It wouldn’t be ideal if my panting gave away that there was someone inside the statue; the icon of Nikonus was nearly double his actual height, and even had him holding a flamethrower. The Duerten had a sense of humor, I’d give them that. Whatever Coji pa...

The Nature of Predators - Human Exterminators 2 (1/9)

WARNING: Spoilers for Human Exterminators Season 1 and Predator Disease 

Memory transcription subject: William Kane, Human Exterminator

Date [standardized human time]: January 19, 2137

Exterminator was a misnomer. I was something like an animal control detective—three words which shouldn’t fit together in a...

The Nature of Predators 139

Memory transcription subject: Slanek, Venlil Civilian

Date [standardized human time]: February 13, 2137

The Duerten homeworld was a stormy place during monsoon season; its name was Kalqua, but I didn’t care much for dissecting the linguistic intricacies of any titles. Skalga, world of death—that was a name from a species of warriors. Even that nomenclature meant little compared to the sole place that mattered, the one that I razed in my dreams: Aafa. So despite the rift between the Duerten H...

The Nature of Predators - Kolshian Civilian (One-Shot #9)

Memory transcription subject: Aucel, Kolshian Civilian

Date [standardized human time]: February 16, 2137

Recel was always the brave one in the family. My brother had enlisted at the age of nine, less than halfway to maturity; he was young when he found his calling. The Kolshian military was teeming with new recruits, and with the steep learning curve for younger enlistees, they pawned him off on Captain Sovlin. At the time, the Gojid had simple dreams about starting a family, and honed a fatherly nature ...

The Nature of Predators 138

Memory transcription subject: Governor Tarva of the Venlil Republic

Date [standardized human time]: February 9, 2137

The rest of the Summit was uneventful, with standard diplomatic talks setting a mundane atmosphere that reminded me of any other bureaucratic affair. My speech railed against the actions of the Archives, taken against herbivores for seeking self-determination. I appealed to the connections the Venlil held for centuries, and what the Federation was supposed to stand for. Exchange p...

The Nature of Predators - Farsul Abductee (8/8)

First | Prev

Memory transcription subject: Danny Palmer, Human Civilian

Date [standardized human time]: February 26, 2137

The FBI offered a hearty settlement of backpay in exchange for my lengthy abduction, and that allowed me to rent a new apartment in Boston. The prices on everything were staggering...

The Nature of Predators 137

Memory transcription subject: Governor Tarva of the Venlil Republic

Date [standardized human time]: February 5, 2137

While the United Nations had no intention of gunning down Isif, human snipers had their sights trained on him in case the Arxur tried anything. I imagined their watchful presence was for the purpose of putting the other delegates at ease, as much as they could be with a carnivorous predator mounting the stage. The Chief Hunter had to slouch to reach the microphone, even after rais...

The Nature of Predators 136

Memory transcription subject: Slanek, Venlil Civilian

Date [standardized human time]: February 5, 2137

The awkwardness between Marcel and I hung in the air, though the human forced some small talk. My exchange partner had stayed on the quarantine station for longer than any other patient, even after the infected were all cleared to leave. I didn’t pry into his affairs, but the mention of moving to Venlil Prime hadn’t sat well with his fiancé, Lucy. She was growing exhausted of the redhead r...

The Nature of Predators 135

Memory transcription subject: Governor Tarva of the Venlil Republic

Date [standardized human time]: February 5, 2137

Secretary-General Zhao leapt into action, declaring that human security had the situation under control. My fur bristled from fear, before I noticed that the Terran leader seemed more concerned about our guests’ reactions than the Arxur intrusion. A carnivorous predator remained on the landing ramp, and I swore I spotted a Dossur using its forehead as a seat. Th...
