    Summary

    From a tumblr writing prompt "You have one super power: The ability to know without fail what the truth is to any asked question. You planned to help the world as a super hero. It took you six hours for the government to declare you public enemy number one and the most deadly super villain alive."

    The Soothsayer just wanted to help.

    Summary

    "How many made it past culling?" Gehenna asked dryly.

    Saul scratched the back of their neck anxiously and replied, "I really wish you wouldn't call it that. They're just children- well, most of them, really."

    "And none of them should even be here," God snapped, "Infants should never be privy to the holy terror of the First, we've discussed this."

    "And I've told you that I didn't seek them out, they volunteered. They all admitted to running informal trails of their own back in their own Houses, this just gives their doom a more controlled environment. We cannot stop their hunger."

    Gehenna furrowed her brow, directing the force of her glower towards her present company. "We could starve them."

    Summary

    John looks up from his Jack and Coke in drunken curiosity.
    "What's with the face, Harrowhark?" he asks, genuinely concerned.
    "Contrary to popular belief," Gideon butts in, "her face just fuckin' looks like that, bitch." She tends to use "bitch" as liberally as commas when off her ass.
    "You're piss drunk," you shoot back.
    "And you, my good bitch, are just as contemptible as the day you clawed your way up from Hell."

    Summary

    It’s never easy to convince her human self that she is also a god, harder still to convince her godly self that she is still human. It should be impossible to do either. Of course, it was also supposed to be impossible to attain divinity by wearing the skin of a dead god.

    (No one ever talks about just how long a lifetime can be, even when it's not the longest thing she'll ever survive.)
