I wheeze as my hand finally touches the peak of the newly formed mountain.
My body is splayed out, clinging to the rock and fucking snow desperately.
Luckily, I don't feel the chill, despite the blizzard raging around me.
I open my mouth, gasping desperately for air, but barely anything fills my young.
What little does, is pushed out by my lungs, as my ches...

A pure white sky, flowing, twisting, and churning like an endlessly spanning ocean greets me as I open my eyes.
I greet it by deadpanning at it all, before holding up my broken blade and beholding it.
I have merely one word.
“Fuck.”
That's an apt way of describing everything going on.
I sigh and sprawl out across the ground, staring up at the clear milky-white sky.

My eyes narrow carefully down at the scythe blade pointed at my Adam's apple, the tip dangerously close to piercing the little bump.
Tilting my head back, and turning it to glance at him, I find something I didn’t expect.
His eyes. They’re equal parts dead yet filled with desperate determination.
His knuckles were so pale they looked like they might crack ...

Hell doesn't have stairs.
A part of me is both simultaneously shocked, and appalled by that fact.
While the rest of me is wondering just how long this fall is supposed to take.
I narrow my eyes incredulously, not that it helps me see anything at all, but more so because I finally recall that I can fly.
My descent slows to a gentle float as my halo blazes to life at my back.<...

Blood oozed from my mouth, a rattling buzz thrumming throughout my chest, the telltale signal of pain.
I'm lucky I can't feel that right now.
Hell, I'm lucky I'll heal from this in general.
I'm just trying to figure out how this happened!
With a grunt, I grasp my sword's hilt and wrench it from my chest, gasping as the wounds, both internal and external, siz...

“Aww! Suza-chan was here?” Kuroka sat there, pouting, crossing her arms, and puffing out her cheeks, “You should have invited her up! We could have done the thing together, nyah~!”
Koneko, whilst lying there on the bed, simply deadpanned at her older sister, “...I'd rather not…whatever that thing is. Still can't feel my legs.”
“You get used to it, nyah~!” Kuroka happily ...

Tobio Ikuse, better known as the Slash Dog, or occasionally Fallen Dog God, stood behind the counter in the Black Dog Bar.
With a small smile on his face, he wipes a glass in his hands down with a cloth.
Truly, he's already wiped this particular glass down…maybe something like four times? But it's not like he has much else he can do otherwise.
At his part-time job here,...

My eyes snap open as three strong presences all of a sudden ping to my senses.
Of the three, I only recognize the one, Suzaku.
But the other two? Completely foreign.
Interesting.
Also, very bad timing, fire birb.
I lift my head slightly, looking between the white and black-haired cat girls nuzzled into either of my sides.
Sorry, correction, the very naked cat g...

As I sit here, or rather, as I've been sitting here giving Kuroka a lap pillow the rest of the night and into the morning, I realize something truly tragic.
I barely get any lap pillow time myself!
In this case, I'll let it slide due to certain circumstances, but something to keep in mind for later.
Honestly, after the first hour passed, and Kuroka remained unconscious but still

Oh, how the turn tables.

“Quiet you.” I slap the leopard-looking Stray beneath me mid-screech.

“Ah~! Quite the sight, isn't it my cute little kouhai?” Noriaki mused behind her, his voice sweet and tender, “Although it would be much better at night, I bet.”
“Probably.” Koneko ground out through gritted teeth, “Now can you put me down, senpai.”
He makes at least a show of considering it, humming for a second before huffing out a, “Nope~!”
And then ...

In the few days following, I honestly considered a sex marathon of several days just so I would have an excuse not to do more bloody meetings.
That thought only became more prevalent as time ticked on, and the same shit continued day in and day out.
It went like this.
The smaller Yokai Factions had two reactions to me: suck up or be cowed by my waving the Oni Daiyokai's head around.

Suzaku couldn't help but sigh.
She watched, perched atop a building as hundreds of thousands of Yokai - thankfully all disguised in their human forms - spilled out onto the streets of Kyoto.
Most of them are the same gangster cosplaying Oni, with a splash of other Yokai mixed in.
It would seem Noriaki’s little gift prevented a good portion of the lesser Yokai Factions from joining up righ...

Tokyo is beautiful this time of year.
It's such a damn shame I'm here for business rather than pleasure, truly, I should have visited the city sooner.
As soon as I entered the city area so to speak, I could feel the shift, in the very air itself.
The sun seemed just a tad more vibrant, the air somehow seemed cleaner, and I don't get how.
It's like the Shinkai was peeking through ...

Uzume didn't end up making it back until late that evening.
I don't know what exactly she thought she'd be coming home to, but I'm fairly certain it wasn't this.
That being, Kunou and I, sitting on opposite ends of the couch, arms crossed in a pout as we looked away from each other.
Meanwhile, said maid stood there in front of us, looking between us completely bewildered.
"Umm, so...

Hmm. How do I say this without getting canceled on Twitter?
Or whatever non-social media platform is the thing in this world.
Eh, fuck it!
Oni in their human forms? They look like a bunch of typical Japanese gang members, yakuza, and the like.

"He's after you!?" My maid screeched in abject horror after the situation was explained to her, prompting me to wince.
Getting back to our apartment in Kyoto after leaving that interdimensional city was a breeze with teleportation.
Kuroka made sure to teleport multiple times across the city before finally heading back here, just in case the Oni had a way to track such things.

So, I'm sure everyone's seen the Poll, yeah?
"Makin' Waves!" won, and honestly? I'm kinda shocked.
Totally has nothing to do with Serafall lewds, bet.
Anyway, this post here is for showing a smidgen of what you signed up for...as well as to give you lot a place to pitch ideas into my face that I may have not thought of.

I'm honestly surprised Kunou hasn't jumped me yet.
Kuroka and I took our seats across from the two Kyuubi, and one of them was still simmering while the other looked on with a sly smile.
I get the feeling Kunou would love nothing more than to pack all that fire up into a ball and punch me in the face with it.
Yet I also get the striking feeling that Yasaka wouldn't let that happen.

A few days rolled past in what felt like moments.
After waking up the next day, finally dispersing my poor clone, and seeing all that, we jumped right into the grind.
And by that I mean, Kuroka somehow managed to convince Koneko to come on over when she could, so the two of them could use me as cat toys.
Not in a sexy way, either.
So, I spent the next few da...

Why hello there!
I have returned, as said in New Sun's Chapter 19, to deliver this Poll to you all!
Rather simply, this Poll will be used to push me towards which story I should write next, as I have way too many ideas and got indecisive.
I know, I know, it's all DxD. I do eventually want to, and will, write for other settings, but for now we'll stick to DxD. There are plenty of other stories to tell from other perspectives there, after all.
Feel free to ask questions ...

"Hmm. Well. Can't say I expected that reaction." I state, plainly, while staring up at the ceiling.
Uzume, still sitting in my lap, deadpans at me as she replies, "You don't say?"
The reaction?

Somehow. Probably magic. Because I know she doesn't have real claws!

Back in the same chamber where, just the other day, I killed a man.
Sat at the same table, the same chairs, teapot, even the smell of the tea.
Only differences? The cups are different and significantly fancier, and the other occupant isn't an old guy this time.

I didn't stop swinging my sword until night fell.
I knew that logically, I should be sitting down, meditating, and advancing my Senjutsu.
But I just wasn't in the mood for it.

Moody, maybe?
Done.
Yeah, that fits.

Well, I say ambush, but all I'm going to do is walk up to their compound and knock on the door.
Of course, I came prepared! Brought my sword hidden in a s...

Moving to Kyoto, I honestly expected something anime to happen, you know?
The examples are too many to list, but the expectation was there.
Is it kind of sad that I'm disappointed nothing has happened yet?
Kuroka didn't have much to pack, I didn't care to pack all that much stuff, so we were able to leave pretty quickly.
Of course, not before I left behind a clone to keep...
