Ryan Comeau

Love fantasy, sci-if, action, and comedy, reading and writing. Super into superheroes and their “ancestors,” in the form of gods and heroes of mythologies. Outside of stories, I enjoy board games, disc golf, guitar, hiking, and hanging with friends.

“I should have known that meeting with them would lead to something like this.” He sighed.

“You mean because you can see the future? Or because they’re both hotheaded and have only gotten along when they ignored each other?” I smiled, which unnerved most people. Something about beaks smiling did that to people.

You open the front door to see a layer of fresh snow, with footprints leading out of your house… but you haven’t been outside yet…

“Am I not supposed to preach Biblical truth? Feel free to go over the recording, I avoided saying any specific phrases that I ...

“Is there beauty in vengeance?”

“What?” I whispered back over my headset.

“That’s what she asks her victims, ‘is there beauty in vengeance?’” Stephanie repeated.

“Where did you hear that?” I asked.

“Tara, that’s like, the main thing people know about her. Well, that and that she kicks ass.”

The voices came first as I slowly came to, blinking as I adjusted to the lights in the room.

“So, is it done?” I asked nervously, fidgeting with my cuffs. It felt strange not wearing cuff links, but I didn’t want to advertise my wealth in such an establishment as this.

He sat across from me, the width of the table being shorter than I’d like, given his profession. Before answering, he took a shot of a dark liquid that made my honey mead seem to glow, in comparison. I sipped my mug, nervo...
