The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXI: Olivia IX
Olivia felt like she had just discovered another world."S-sis..."Truly, Big Sis was a genius if she was the one that taught her how to help her body relax from the pain and suffering. It was only natural that her sister was the one to teach her this. If she didn't, who knows how much more she'll dread the coming of her monthlies? Not only did this 'masturbation' work, but it also gave her a way to clear out a big chunk of the muddy waters constantly threatening to surround her and her sister."a-ah..."While she didn't know why Big Sis forbade her from doing it unless her cramps got too bad, she did know was that it was the second-best thing that ever happened to her after meeting her sister years ago. It was an outlet for the weird feelings she was starting to have when her sister was around, and it gave her such an
The Least Common Denominator L.I Equilibrium
Balance. A balance in all things, yeah? There was some sense of status quo in the way the world works. From the natural water cycle to every other food chain out there, nothing is ever lost in the middle of each process; the world maintaining the same base matter and ingredients in its system only in a different manner or form. Perhaps there would be some loss of energy along the way, but overall, nothing was ever lost in the grand scheme of things. Even income inequality worked like this, unfortunately. Money needs to be scarce to have value, and thus the poor and the rich exist to keep the rich rich and the poor penniless to keep the value at a rate that would help the economy. And while I wouldn't portray myself to be a harbinger of balance in anything, I was still a big advocate of fairness in an unfair world.And the explosion that echoed from the front door was just the inequality balance I needed t
The Least Common Denominator L.II Equilibrium
Livia flew off in a burst of wind.*CLANG!*Sparks flew as her blades met the handle of the Prime's war hammer while I was stuck watching from the sidelines, but that didn't mean I should just let my sister do all the work now, can't I? She had the strength and speed that I could never hope to achieve without years of constant training to stand toe-to-toe with a Prime. Meanwhile, I had thought myself capable of thinking up of various bullshit to get ourselves out of shitty situations. Leaning on my staff as I paced around the battlefield, I kept my eyes peeled for any sort of opportunity that would present itself sooner or later.That was the time that I had to strike.*CLANG! CLANG!*Livia rushed through with reckless abandon as her blades flew against the Prime. The Prime, meanwhile, stood
The Least Common Denominator L.III Equilibrium
My mind whirred at the implications of what this Prime just revealed to me. Did he mean that he taught Mother everything she knew? Or was he just a tutor of some sort? What was his relationship with her? A former superior? Did that mean that he was in the upper echelons of the Prime Thirteen? Or was it-"Calm your head, Little Eul," the Prime shook me from my thoughts as he laughed out loud. "Keep your head straight and fight hard."I blinked at the man that actually just gave me sound advice. A part of me was really starting to like the guy, but he still trapped Livia in a dome of earth. I couldn't just let that slide for my own sake. Also, "Little Eul?"That was my mother's name... So he really did know her before."Eul was your mother, correct?" the Prime pointed out as he put his fists up. "You're practically her sp
The Least Common Denominator L.IV Equilibrium
I paced around the small hill, knowing that going up there with no plan at all would be tantamount to suicide. The Prime had the high ground, but that didn't mean that it was impossible to beat him despite his overwhelming advantage against me in speed, strength, and experience...Okay. Maybe it was impossible, but that didn't mean that there wasn't a way for me to get through this."C'mon, Little Eul!" Lord Stone called out to me with his arms spread out. "You're mother would've swung at me already!"I snorted, "I'm not my mother, Sir!"There was no need to rush when I knew that Livia was just stuck inside her dome. She was safe in the meantime. Meanwhile, I was burning daylight trying to think up a way to approach the guy without eating shit in five seconds. Let me take my sweet ass time, dammit.
The Least Common Denominator L.V Equilibrium
I tilted my head in confusion, my victory utterly shoved to the back of my mind as more pressing matters threatened to swarm my thoughts. Congratulations? Pass? What the hell did I pass? A test? An exam?"I see that you're confused," the Prime nodded to himself as he stood over me. "Well, ask your questions and I shall explain them!"How forthcoming... But that didn't mean I didn't forget the reason I fought so hard in the first place, "Before anything, let my sister go.""Your sister? Oh! Olivia, was it?"Without any more prompting, the muscle-bound man sauntered his way to his war hammer. Removing it from the earth, the dome trapping Livia finally lifted revealing a wholly scared, yet utterly mad young girl. The grip on her blades was bleeding, and her eyes held a manic glint in them that I had only seen in a mirror o
The Least Common Denominator L.VI Equilibrium
"First up, stop calling me Lady," I pointedly demanded. "I'm not one of your Primes just yet."Grigori snickered in his seat, "Oh, of course, Little Eul. I suppose the same will go for Littlest Eul over there?"I rolled my eyes at the Prime's designated nickname for Livia, "Yeah, sure. Whatever."I felt my fingers tremble from the anxious energy that I was feeling. I was getting rather impatient and I knew it. I gotta focus and get all the info I could get out of this man before running for the hills.I guess I should put the train back on track, "So, my earlier question?"Last I recalled, Love pointedly said to us that the Emperor was more than capable of holding a mean grudge. And while I might have been able to slip under the radar during the first few months of my then-rebellion, the amo
The Least Common Denominator LI.I Number Line
Purpose: something that I never had in my previous life that resulted in my eventual demise by my own hand. While most were easily content with just staying alive and calling it a day, I was stupid enough to go higher and tried to find something that I was decent enough to do for the rest of my life without killing myself. Of course, we all know how that turned out, but I guess I just didn't try hard enough, in my opinion. Perhaps I was meant to be a doctor despite my hatred of responsibility? Or maybe I was actually supposed to be that one perpetually tired doctor that's somehow good with her job despite not really wanting to do anything with it? Either way, it was too late to speculate such things now that it had already come and passed.Besides, I had a better purpose of living leading me in the front right now."We're almost, Sis. Just stick close."
