Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Sept. 30, 2020



This is a bad day for John Cain, waking on a desolated starship, floating alone in the blackness of space with no memory of who he is or what he's doing there. It's a desperate race against time to answer those questions and find out and who are ...

The Devil Inside

Banes at 12:00AM, Nov. 21, 2019

Another type of “hidden side” I enjoy is a little less universal, but can ...
