Fringes of the Hugoverse

On this page I will collect Hugoverse stories that either have no proper place in the main story, or their place has not been revealed yet. Stories that have a proper place will get moved to the timeline when there's enough of that arc to make it interesting. These stories can also help illustrate how things work in the Hugoverse. 

  • Love and Laughter: [WP] Must have the phrase, "A fish may love a bird, but where would they live."
  • Deathly Giggles: [WP] “Um, Honey, did you teach the baby Latin?”

  • Heart Attack: [WP] The hero's power changes every 15 minutes.

  • Unique Encounter: [WP] "Are you lost?" I asked the wandering man. "No, not lost," he replied, staring past me as he spoke, "but where am I?"

  • Rose Bro: [WP] The forgotten tail of the Knight and the Snail. 


  • Arachnophobia = Wet Pants: [WP]One of your relatives just died. You help cleaning and emptying their house. While in the attic, you find something unusual.

  • Sun's Favorite: [WP]The demon hordes have finally been vanquished, and the legendary Hero-King has slain the Lord of Darkness. As prophecies foretold, the sun god descends to reward "the bravest and most heroic" - but he walks right past the Hero-King, and instead approaches a common soldier from the rank and file.

B-Squad (6-29-18)

[WP] You have lived on earth your whole life. One morning, you wake up in the center of a modestly sized crater, as you look about you see fields of violet-tinted grass, a faint red sun in the sky overhead, and two moons in *much* closer orbit than our own. [ Link to post .] Lupe Villalobos standing around in a crater would not answer any questions. She reached up one of the sides gripping the violet grass around the upper rim of the hole. The texture of the violet grass felt the same as the green grass on Earth. The girl's coppery hair shimmered under the moonlight that she was making a point to ignore. She scanned the large field, turning slowly and staring out along the grassy plain.  "Whoaaaaa," Lupe whispered to herself. Despite the situation, she marveled at the beauty of wherever she was. The sight encouraged her to face the two moons she purposely kept at her back. She turned around and found that she could still feel surprised.  "Hi." Underneath...

Hugoverse Guidebook

This is where I will start storing information about my Universe to help add some context to my short stories.  Magic: Magic is a natural force present on all Earths, though not all Earths have a population that can tap into it. Once a Soul learns how to tap into magic on one Earth they can tap into the magic from other Earths. Nanos:   Microscopic machines that excel at efficiency. As a result they work together and learn to optimize the tasks they're trained for. On some Earths they allow Zeroes to tap into magic, while on other Earths they evolved to mimic magic.  AlterNet:  A network that allows users from alternate universes to communicate with each other. It is an Earth that is completely dominated by nanos. Earths with the right technology can project their consciousness to that Earth, and the nanos will form an artificial body for their consciousness. This is primarily used for gaming, and has essentially become a giant cross universe M...
