Breakaway Rebellion: Civil War II Chapter Eighty-Two

As James Watt flew through countless star systems at a speed far exceeding that of light, memories flooded his mind—memories from centuries of life.

The Ballad of St. Germain: Civil War II Chapter Eighty

Old Bailey didn't have enough time. As Picard and St. Germain began to marshal their troops, and as the vampire put together what he thought was a watertight plan, they attacked, and they attacked in numbers.

The Ballad of St. Germain: Civil War II Chapter Seventy-Six

He had been alive for over six hundred years. He had travelled far, from his home in New Orleans, to Eastern Europe, to Paris, and to the far reaches of the Mutare Nebula.

Are You a True Football Fan?

I have a question for you today. Are you a true football fan?

What is "So I Said to This Bloke?"

QUESTION: What is “So I Said to This Bloke?”
