Three years ago we created a new concept: Punk Wars! Where two (or more) sci-fi -Punk sub-genres collide in one science-fiction story. Now we're back at it again. That's right, we're returning to the Punk Wars, 'troopers! Ooorah!

The crew of El Precursor has a secret mission: deliver blueprints that represent the only hope for a nation on the brink of war . To fund their journey, they take a spy job in Rilaph, a city-state ruled by the megacorporation Prayant . This corporation's technological "fire"-the Haleine engine -is the very force that once flooded the world . Soon, they find themselves hunted by pirates wielding impossible technology and betrayed by the very executives who hired them . Trapped in a game of betrayal where everyone is a target, the dysfunctional crew of El Precursor must unmask the real traitor. They must race against time before the legacy of Prometheus -the same fire that drowned the world -is unleashed to consume what little remains.

TK's waterbound this month! It's OceanPunk!

A one chapter short story about an entire culture living upon the water in constructed islands. Written for Wattpunk's Tales of Oceanpunk Challenge.

𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗬𝗦 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥 · 28x FEATURED · An Asian sci-fi retelling of The Little Mermaid that steers the tale you know in a whole new funky direction | An ambitious teen mermaid must venture beyond her guarded underwater city and brave the polluted, climate-ravaged wilds of the Indian Ocean, in order to find her human soulmate and forge a better future for her people. *** Calliathron is the epitome of modern sea life--a bustling mer-city contained within a coral atoll in an alternate Indian Ocean. Yet, the ripples of a changing world beyond have begun to seep in, bleaching color and darkening minds--but not Dea Rhodoreef's mind. Who said life's easy for a teen about to graduate high school? Even more so when one is a pastel goth gamer mermaid trying to scrape by in a mobile home with a grumpy grandmother who's always complaining about the "human infestation". Maybe the troubled city-state will embrace a new dawn when merpeople and humans coexist--a future that Dea is determined to work hard for. Noble causes aside, just getting to see a notorious human is number one on her bucket list. Now, as if school, a part-time job and building a political career aren't enough, a chonky sea cow has been following her for days. It's time to return him to the wild--not like she'd swim into a human. Right? © 2022 Su Vida | Exclusively on Wattpad *** FEATURED @Anime @ScienceFiction + 26 more WC: 105,000 Genres: Sci-Fi (Oceanpunk) x Cli-Fi x Adventure x Romance x Retelling This tale comes with mammalian mermaids who breathe air.
