The Least Common Denominator LXII.V Torque
Did I even have enough time to think?The world narrowed down to just inside this small sealed dome as I strained my eyes through the darkness beyond my flames. Grigori looked downright menacing in the dim lighting; his crouched posture looking far too familiar for my tastes as I forced myself to keep calm and think things through.He was allowing me the time to think from the looks of it. While he was at a ready stance right now, I was still on the other side of the battlefield despite the fact that I just declared that we were going to fight either way. Then again, wasn't that the exact same thing he did when we first faced each other? He was a Prime, after all; far from poor old, me's weight class by at least three levels. He's underestimating me again; probably thinking that I'm still at a level that he could easily run circles around with.But
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXV: Ruby
In the brief time that she spent in this cruel world, Ruby had never born witness to such a catastrophic battle. The only thing that would even come close to such a spectacle was probably the explosion that destroyed their Furnace in the first place. And even then it paled in comparison to the wondrous cacophony of elements that wove itself into each second of the bloody affair. Her eyes drank in each and every specific detail that she managed to witness. From the way Livia moved with her blades, to the way the mysterious Num controlled her water to defend their position, Ruby made sure to memorize the way their bodies reacted to the sight of danger; blood flying everywhere with each body that fell to the wayside.It was... eye-opening, to say the least."Ruby, help me carry her back in."Heeding her partner's call, the orange-haired woman snapped
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXVI: Ica IV
It had been a while since Ica had conversed with her nominal Master.With her Master getting better at manipulating and reserving her Essence, the phoenix never really had a chance in talking to the woman for the past year. And while it wasn't a foregone conclusion that her Master had forgotten her, Ica still found herself feeling a pang of loneliness as she drifted from book to book in her Master's vast expanse of a mindscape. In the year that had passed, the phoenix had managed to read a considerable portion of her host's memories alongside a bit more of the knowledge laying about throughout the shelves of the library. In a way, she was truly becoming more like her land lady; an increasingly jaded woman unsure of their own purpose in life. Except..."How can you be so careless?"Ica at least knew that she existed solely to assist her idiot Master
The Least Common Denominator LXIII.I Centrifugal Force
Karma is such a fickle concept from what I can gather. The mere fact that every action has an equal and opposite reaction might work for tangible effects such as physics, but the mere concept that all of your deeds can add up and affect your life depending on whether said deeds were done with good or bad intentions was something that I could only see as random hocus pocus that belonged right next to horoscope readings and zodiac sign bullshit. Not that I'm discounting entire religions that believe in it, but karmic retribution was something that goody-two-shoes people believe to justify the potential suffering they get for being selfless pricks. I mean, why else would some people spend their entire life's savings to helping someone with no strings attached? Humanity is inherently greedy in nature, and the urge to hoard power and resources will always be the norm for the old society. I, myself, still had selfish desires despite everyb
The Least Common Denominator LXIII.II Centrifugal Force
The brightness of the morning sun was the first thing that came to my senses as I stirred in my makeshift bed; which was something I never expected after I elected to close my eyes and let Lace and Livia have their way with my body. I wanted to enjoy being pampered, dammit, not doze off and wake up in the future with a decently moveable body."Ughh...."With a moan, I forced myself upright as the open end of the wagon greeted me with a rather white scenery of snow and shrubbery. I didn't expect us to be up north that quickly, but I guess we hauled ass and made great time?Looking around, the wagon was somehow significantly improved with how much space I had to move around. Either they sold some of the wares for a quick buck, or they currently set up shop somewhere near here. Huh. Or maybe they were used to set up camp wherever we were right now.
The Least Common Denominator LXIII.III Centrifugal Force
The darkness was starting to encroach the wagon when Livia returned with the massive Lord Stone in tow. Holding a lone-lit torch on his right hand, Grigori looked glad that I was out and about as opposed to the constant air of worry that I seemed to constantly feel whenever I was around the others. Well, Phillipe didn't look like he felt anything beyond secondhand belief from my recovery. Not that I'd blame him; we barely know each other right now."Good to see you awake again, Little Eul!" the boisterous old man let out a hearty laugh as Livia hopped back up to my side. "Olivia here said you wanted to have the talk now?"Ignoring Livia's look of silent protest, I turned to the old man with a determined look of my own, "Yeah. I might as well make the most of my time awake. Time isn't exactly free, y'know?""A wise saying there, Crimson," Grigori no
The Least Common Denominator LXIII.IV Centrifugal Force
I ignored the numb stab of pain growing inside my chest as I did my best to keep my composure. It wouldn't do me good to let my stupidity get a hold of me now, especially if the man standing in front of us was feeling rather vindictive of my decisions. I didn't really want to warm up to the idea of forgiving Arya, but goddammit did the woman made it hard for me to stay mad at her!"I suppose I'll let it slide, for now, Little Eul," the Prime sighed. "For now, let's move on to other things."I let out a sigh of my own as Grigori visibly relaxed; his menacing gait giving way to his usual casual demeanor. I felt Livia's arm tighten around me as the man switched his stance in a way that showed a lack of care about the current situation. Placing his other hand on the side of his hips, Grigori smiled as he said his piece."While you two fought admirably
The Least Common Denominator LXIV.I Binary Code
It was a glorious feeling to finally feel like a normal human being again. Taking an entire day to rest had been the best idea as I had let Livia and the twins strap me to bed with my consent. And while I hated every single moment of it back then, hindsight made me appreciate my past self's pragmatism and lack of self-confidence to properly restrain herself. With a renewed vigor, I was finally able to join Livia in her sessions with our new mentor."Again!"That didn't mean, however, that my mind was focused on just getting better at a skill that I was never really good at in the first place. My mind was whirring with plans upon plans upon plans to the point of it almost overwhelming my thought processes. How the hell do I make it better in terms of execution? Was it possible for me to make it so that it was easier and yet foolproof? Would it be ambitious of me to plan a fortr
