Chapter 2: In Which The Hero Of The Icelandic Saga, Njáll Njálsson Makes a First Appearance It was with a jump that Njáll Njálsson awoke to the sound of his alarm clock sounding. With a fist that once broke two wine glasses over the head of a drunk partygoer, Njáll Njálsson slammed his fist down upon the clock, causing a ringing to resound at a higher volume throughout the room. Njáll Njálsson pulled his thick wool covers around his body, wishing to continue sleeping even further into the Saturday afternoon. Surely it could have only been by the treachery of Loki that his alarm sound on such a day,

Chapter 1.75: In which (Spoiler Alert) Arinbjörn Predictably Dies So The Plot May Advance Jakob was quick to pick up on Arinbjörn's flashback. Arinbjörn was busy staring at the picture of a warm Icelandic landscape on the far wall to notice Jakob getting up to use the bathroom. Nature was calling Jakob, and she had just logged his number in her speed dial. He could feel not only the beer he had recently drank pulsing through his bladder, but also the beer he had drunken earlier on in the night as well. All of this liquid was being moved along by a metaphysically liquidated form of the great shame he was feeling for the act he

Chapter 1.5: In Which A Flashback Occurs To The Time In Which The Trip That Arinbjörn Embarked On Occurs A Second Time In Arinbjörn's Mind Magnus let out a hearty chuckle before pouring another shot on the table in his rather impressive looking sealskin canteen. His club was slung over his shoulder, numerous drops of frozen seal blood on the back. He had used to hunt polar bears, but they had been scarce as of late. Magnus had been told recently that global warming was to blame, but he could do little but laugh at the concept. The globe warming? Did these silly scientists know how impossible that would be? Magnus suppressed the th

Chapter One: The First Chapter Arinbjörn glanced out the window at the stormy Icelandic countryside before shaking his head, causing his greasy blond hair to quiver for a second before naturally righting itself. The room around him was dark and the floorboards cold, yet Arinbjörn saw no need to turn on a light. The obnoxious glare of the overhead fluorescents would take away his view, and although being in the dark slightly tweaked his nerves, the knowledge that he was alone in his house served as a protector to such a worry. Arinbjörn was a man of six feet, standing tall and firm, as did many in his fi

The Mourning After: Day 1

The Mourning After Day 1 My alarm hit 7:45, like it had all past days of the year. The routine annoying screech that echoed through the small motel room woke me up with a shudder. My hand darted instinctively to the 'Off' Button. I was tempted to hit snooze, but my desire to sleep in had left me many months ago. Now, I was at the beck and call of the alarm. I had tried a great many times to wake up before the alarm sounded, but never to any avail. I constantly find myself wishing that at some earlier night I had set the alarm to an earlier time, as to give myself a longer amount of time in my days, but such was a wish that was always in va

Acceleration Glory: Chapter 5

Acceleration Glory Chapter 5: The Coming Storm The merry trio left the Sushi bar in high spirits, yet with a noticeably smaller amount of money. Elliot and Niko didn't mind at all. Andre, on the other hand, had enough resentment for the two of them. He did keep it to himself though. "So, now that that one Luc fellow did Andre the disservice of taking his movie away from him, want to still go see 'Path Of The King'?", Niko asked Elliot, causing Andre to groan. Elliot laughed. "Sure!", he agreed, causing Andre to groan further. "Fine, but next time we eat out, you Duel the crazy challenger", Andre said, offering an ultimatum in response. "

Acceleration Glory Chapter 4: Divinity, Fluff, and Wheels. While the rest of Satellite had undergone a massive makeover with the construction of the Daedalus Bridge, the B.A.D. area had been left to rot. In time the local life vanished from it. Now, it was inhabited almost exclusively by squatters and outlaws, all of the people with the misfortune to be born in Satellite before the bridge was created had left it almost overnight for the city. The silence of a main street was interrupted for mere moments as the trio of D-Wheels raced down the abandoned stretch of pavement, leaving a small cloud of dust and tire tracks as the only testament

Why I Write

Why I Write: Attack of The Death Sandwich I think I died once. It wasn't so bad. It was sort of like being asleep. Although, when I'm asleep, I've never seen myself make a sandwich. It's a strange feeling. Of course, one would have to wonder what the sandwich represented. I mean, people don't see themselves making sandwiches when they die unless there is some meaning behind the sandwich. Sadly, try as I might, I can't remember what was in the sandwich. I sort of wonder if somehow remembering what was in the sandwich would change my relationship to it at all. Huh. That's a funny thing to consider. Someone's relationship to his half death

Acceleration Glory Chapter 3: Getting Sushi, Showing Off, and Showing Down Andre sighed to himself before downing another glass of water. Niko and Elliot were taking longer to arrive at the sushi bar than he had hoped, and he had been helping himself to the free water ever since, promising the wait staff he would make it up with a more generous order every time they raised eyebrows upon him asking for a refill. He took a second to survey his surroundings. The bar itself was classy, but not very expensive. It managed to survive mostly in the tourist season, when a majority of travelers would come flocking in for a taste of "authentic" Neo

Acceleration Glory Chapter 2: Fast Times at D-Wheel High While no actual munitions had gone off, to any passerby the basement of the Neo Domino City Duelist Academy Student Union could pass as a war zone with no problems at all. Then again, very few passed by it on the outside, and even fewer actually went. An even smaller percent actually went into the basement. The building was nestled tightly into a rather unexciting corner of the academy grounds, an easy twenty minutes away from any of the frequently visited halls in the central part of the academy. The aftereffects of a D-Wheel test run that had ran afoul could rival any small explosi

My Bio

Hello! I'm Von Gentlemen!
I'm rather new to this site, and to the idea of artistic social networks in general. I do like it here though!

The main reason I joined was to work on and post my current main work, my 5Ds setting fic called "Acceleration Glory". So far, so good.

Sorry things are sort of lackluster at the moment. I haven't got any artistic talent of my own, and haven't found anyone to make cover art for my things yet.

(Hah! I actually wrote something here! Take that, hater!)

Current Residence: The Icy Northlands
Favourite genre of music: Metal. Pure and simple.
Favourite style of art: Surreal
Operating System: Tricked out Windows
Wallpaper of choice: Neil Patrick Harris awarding me TEN THUNDERS.
Favourite cartoon character: Jack Atlas

Writing thing-y

0 min read

It appears that I was tagged by Dreamaniacal (https://www.deviantart.com/dreamaniacal) . Oh joy! So, it looks like you get to see my take on my own writing. 1. Tell us about your favorite writing project/universe that you've worked with and why. The majority of settings I do are some variation of the world we live in. My favorite project thus far has been Hringur. It's been wonderful to write. I like the setting, because it has the literary style of a fantasy world, but the daring and heroic exploits of the characters all have the inanity of everyday life. The setting of my DnD campaign takes a very close second. The world is one where the existence of gods has led to a mas

Where's Chapter Six...?

0 min read

Ahh! I'm sorry! I know I'm behind schedule for finishing Acceleration Glory! Chapter Six! Many apologies! I haven't had the time all week to sit down and write the chapter. I have it planned, but I'm still upwards of ten pages from actually having it written. It will exist, I promise! Expect dueling. And perhaps a first glance at Synchro Summons. Hmmm? While you wait, please check out my other story, entitled The Morning After. It wrote it up on a spur-of-the-moment literary strike, and I can't decided if I like it or not. I also can't decide if I want to write more. So, why don't you people tell me? I do promise that if I do write more M

A Quick Note On Timelines.

0 min read

I just realized that the order in which all of Acceleration Glory's events are happening may be a bit confusing. So, let me explain. The events at the Sushi Bar, as well as Niko's ordeals of Chapter Five happen Thursday Night. Thursday is also when the three riders in the B.A.D. area get noticed by Mark. The three riders ride through Thursday night, and Andrew arrives at the academy at noon on Friday. Joey and Lira also have their exposition moment around noon on the same Friday. The Sunday they mention in their Exposition happened the previous Sunday, and the investigation they did along with the duel happened on Thursday. Mark had his du
