Boosted Villainy Part 11

"No flying in the house…" Carol trailed off when she glanced back at her flying daughter and realized that Vicky wasn't the one flying down the hallway. "Amy?" she sputtered.

Amy landed, looking a touch sheepish. "Yes?"

"How?" Carol asked, wondering if she'd found some tinkertech or...

Boosted Villainy Part 10

"Do I have…" Amy trailed off as she got close enough to get a decent look at the broken teenager that was strapped to a gurney. "What happened?" she asked the cop that was standing next to the patient the intern wanted her to heal, looking far too calm for the injured guy to be innocent.

"Danny?" Jimmy asked after picking up the phone, not sure who else would be calling him from the union.

"Yeah, I might need to call in that favor you owe me," Danny said as he leaned back in his office chair.

"What's up?" Jimmy asked.

"Is your wife still on the school board?" Da...

Boosted Villainy Part 8

Myst knelt down on a piece of cardboard in the mall parking lot and used a touch of his energy to boost the last shock absorber on the RV so that it would absorb impact and help reduce the weight of the vehicle. "That should make the ride smoother. The potholes around here are still insane."

Boosted Villainy Part 7

Taylor glanced around the interior of the brand new RV then took a seat on the bench. "You can boost things and make things like Dauntless?"

"Basically," Myst agreed as he stepped into the RV and closed the door to keep the heat in.

"Why are you so open about being a parahuman?" Taylo...

Boosted Villainy Part 6

Assault blinked when he heard a familiar song playing and saw Luigi in a go kart zooming down the street, driving like a madman and swerving all over the place. 'Is he drunk?' he mused as he checked the PHO on his phone and pulled up Uber and Leet's channel to see if they were doing something liv...

Boosted Villainy Part 5

"I'm surprised you didn't go for the challenger with how quickly you devoured that burger," Rose teased Myst as they left the restaurant.

"I'm not a fan of grease at the best of times, it's like they're intentionally trying to kill people," Myst grumbled, coming to a stop when he saw two su...

Boosted Villainy Part 4

Myst collected the bag and the receipt then left the new age shop. He frowned when he noticed an overweight guy in a security outfit ranting at the attractive dark haired security guard from earlier.

"You can't just tase people and call the police!" the man ranted at the girl, his face red ...

Boosted Villainy Part 3

Myst stared at the stacks of money sitting on the hotel bed, surprised that it had turned out to be just over two hundred and twenty thousand dollars. On the upside it certainly helped his conscience and the lingering doubts about the man's connection to the Empire were put to rest. 'More money t...

Boosted Villainy Part 2

Myst was rather happy with his haul, not only had he managed to boost his boots and clothes a couple of times but he'd found a bag filled with old electric engines and wires that he'd promptly stuck in his backpack for later testing, two broken umbrellas, a shoe box filled with rusty screwdrivers...

Boosted Villainy

An: Hopefully everyone has a safe holiday.

Myst opened the envelope and absently pulled the postcard out as he left the post office, wondering who was sending him a postcard as the letter hadn't had a return address on it and why they had put it in an envelope to start with, it k...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 13

"Give me something," Myst muttered as he set Arion's crown in the middle of the star carved into his enchanting altar and glanced over the item's details that appeared on the altar's floating display. He was a bit annoyed but not particularly surprised when he noticed the grayed out option for di...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 12

Myst glanced in the mirror on the table in the room he'd rented for the night, trying to make sure that every hint of her hair and face were covered by the ski mask and hoodie, on the off chance that her invisibility didn't extend to the cameras or failed. She checked her gloves and the rest of h...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 11

Myst glanced up from the boss fight he was currently fighting on Final Fantasy IV when Alura sat down on the beach towel next to him. "What's up?"

"You're going on an adventure, aren't you?" Alura asked.

"What makes you say that?" Myst asked, curious where she'd gotten that idea, most...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 10

Myst did his best to ignore the massive ring floating in the sky in the distance as he checked the address on the sign above the door against the piece of parchment in his hand that Sapphire's grandfather had given him, fairly sure the address matched, but he'd been reasonably sure the last time ...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 9

"This is going to be easy," Tommy bragged in his thick southern drawl, as he walked towards the jewelry store with his sister, looking forward to scaring people and grabbing a bunch of jewelry.

"It's going to be fun…" Tuppence trailed off when something gold and glittering was tossed at h...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 8

“Come to papa,” Myst said as he picked up the golden ring from the small pile of magical items and slipped it onto his finger.

“Shouldn’t that be mama?” the old wizard asked.

Myst’s form shifted, breasts shrinking into a broad chest as he gained a foot in height and his sh...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 7

Myst's grand plan of stepping through a door to Waterdeep and wandering around asking people until he found a magical items shop hit a bit of a snag when he stepped through the portal and heard the sounds of the city and realized that he didn't recognize a single word anyone was saying. "This mig...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 6

"That's cheating," Myst muttered as he watched Kara roll a 'sheet' of molten glass and sand into a giant tube, blurring between the various points of the tube to keep it moving so that it didn't melt or break into a useless mess as it cooled enough to support its own weight.

Kara snickered ...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 5

"Are you sure she's up?" Hal asked.

"I doubt she'll be able to sleep through the sun hitting her," Kara replied as she knocked on the door, unwilling to admit that she'd already checked with her X-ray vision and found her standing in front of the mirror in a pair of pajama bottoms staring a...

Bit of a Glitch...

Messed up the tier bit on the Tara dungeon post today and also charged for it... so Friday's post won't be charged and I'll try to have another character of Tara's dungeon out soon to make up for the glitch. 

Tara Pixie Dungeon Part 52

Metal stabbed her shadow for what felt like the thousandth time and blinked when the darkness in the rather small room vanished and she was able to see everything as if it was illuminated by indirect light. 'I can touch the walls on each side and I could kick the other door, no wonder my shadow d...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 4

Myst absently grabbed another chip from the bowl sitting on the bed as he selected the water breathing enchant and hit the button, creating yet another magic ring of water breathing that he could sell or give away after he collected it from the game. He finished eating the chip then glanced at th...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 3

Kara glanced away from the screen where Myst was loading the game for the thirty seventh time after stabbing the shopkeeper to reset their inventory when she heard someone quietly approaching the door. She used her X-ray vision on the wall and door as she floated off the bed and over to the door,...

Myst and the Magic Shop Part 2

"Feeling better…" Robin trailed off as the door to the hotel bathroom opened and the clone walked out wearing a white towel around her waist that barely covered everything it needed to and another towel around her blonde hair, leaving her breasts uncovered. "Sorry!"

Myst smirked when Robi...

Myst and the Magic Shop

An: Had an idea that wouldn't leave me alone.

Myst blinked as he went from sitting down at his computer to read a fic to standing in a strange antique/souvenir shop with an older oriential man that looked suspiciously like a certain cartoon character turned real.

"Ah, you are here to...

Replacement Boy That Lived Part 14

Myst dodged under a tentacle and stabbed the fake looking tentacle monster with her dagger, moving better in her unfamiliar female body than she had any right to thanks to her magical girl transformation and the agility she'd stolen from the last twenty monsters she'd killed. She slashed at the t...

Replacement Boy That Lived Part 13

Myst walked around the corner and blinked a couple of times when he noticed the aisle seemed to slowly warp and twist when he wasn't looking directly at it, causing sections to bend and stretch in ways that were disturbing as he couldn't quite remember what they'd looked like a second ago but kne...

Replacement Boy That Lived Part 12

Hermione glanced around the depressing and dingy looking alley that Myst had teleported them to then looked at the rest of the group. "Are you sure this is safe? Professor McGonagall warned us about it."

"Not particularly," Neville muttered, hoping his gran didn't find out that he'd been in...

Replacement Boy That Lived Part 11

"Mystic Boots of Asskicking," Myst mused as he looked at the leather boots they'd picked up from the dark elf.

"What are they really called?" Hermione asked as they walked out of a hole in the hedge and into the courtyard with a two story stone tower in the middle of it surrounded by variou...
