    Summary

    A whacky re-telling of the main storyline of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, roughly projected onto the setting of Garden of Eden.
    I drafted few disconnected scenes while wondering whether Adam Jensen was loosely based on biblical Adam, and what implications this similarity may have for the plot and other characters, and then decided - to hell with it, and wrote the whole thing.

    Location:
    Garden of Eden

    Characters:
    Adam Jensen is, of course, Adam.
    Francis Pritchard is the Snake, a nod to his handle Nucl3arsnake.
    Faridah Malik is a swift. She piloted a bird, now she is a bird.
    And many other amusing transformations...

    Apples are a metaphor for augmentation. A metaphor? A substitute? Anyway.

    My proudest writing achievement in this fic is a whole page of aerial bird combat.
    Despite being a crack fic, it also has some profound moments, because I just can’t help myself. It is firmly in a "Crack Treated Seriously" territory.

    Disclaimer: My knowledge of biblical lore is limited to children's picture bible many years ago. Adam, Eve, apples. There was a snake. I mean, it works.

    Summary

    On a mission from Destiny's Slave, Blade finds himself on the doorstep of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, looking for a place to stay. Not that he gets a say in this—it's all part of the script, after all.

    Fate, as the director herself would call it.

    Summary

    No one had ever seen the monster of the woods but they all had seen the petrified statues of their loved ones. Whatever that thing was, it turned people to stone. No animals dared to live in the forest and any screams would suddenly be cut off, signaling that the creature had killed yet another person.

    Nier’s head began to race. The herbs they needed for Yonah’s medicine were located in the depths of the Silent Forest. And if the men sent out to retrieve them had truly been killed… Then he doubted anyone else would be ready to head out anytime soon.

    The weight of his sword rested heavily on his back and heart as he forced the words out.

    "I'll go."
