Steampunk is a sub-genre which incorporates technologies and designs inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery.
Steampunk stories are often set in an alternative past where these retro-futuristic technologies exist within a society of Victorian values. The fashion usually incorporates traditional dress such as bustles, corsets, gowns, suits with waistcoats, and top hats.
These are often accented with 'period' accessories such as timepieces, parasols, and flying / driving goggles.
Hannah liked the new dress. It was a bit small on her, young Louise not being as tall or well endowed as Hannah was, but it fit. Her breasts were pressed tightly and it was short enough to show her ankles so she was right on the line of scandalous for cou...
Though Victoria shared her name with the reigning monarch, the similarities ended there. She very much doubted the ruler would condone—or even contemplate—an outfit such as the one she wore. The ornate gild of the mirror in her chambers framed a woman bri...
If the man thought he had secured an easy job informing the ship of beautiful women that a lockdown was in place and they couldn't go anywhere, he regretted it the moment Liddy handed him a bill. It wasn't that the numbers confused him or that they were s...
Cat had found, while in the radio room, that it sat below the observation tower. Emma and Paje had hoped to find a door leading to it from the floor above so they could avoid going through what Cat had just to learn where things were. “I didn't think you...
It was a curious thing to Cat why there were so many generals taking their leisure with them when there was supposed to be a war on, but she wasn't about to complain. Besides, her mouth was full. As she tasted the man sliding through her mouth to get down...
The view of the city got more and more amazing as their ship drew closer. They could see levels of cityscape resolve into focus as they watched. The giant train the city moved on looked like it had stopped, and had it not been for the trail of destruction...
Ving moved her racer away from the airship, watching an annoyed-looking Hannah grow smaller as the distance increased. She knew why and refused to apologize for it. “So, what happened?” Laurel asked as she lashed her rifle to the sling in the door. “I sai...
Hope was running out of the cable car, still in the process of refastening the armour she had loosened to entertain the operator, who as she left mumbled something about it happening again. She made use of her religious status and contacts to get into the...

Inky came onto the forward deck looking for Ving and found her staring off into the distance. She knew Ving was worried for Hannah. “This is her home turf. She will be fine.” Inky put her hand on Ving's shoulder as she reassured her. Ving was slightly sta...
Liddy descended down through the glass tube on the platform surrounded by armed women. Hannah, who had put on her combat uniform and carried her trench gun loaded with ice ammunition, stood beside her. They had all chosen the special ammunition due to the...
Nobody was paying attention as some foppish putz was droning on about the minutes of the last meeting. Hannah flitted about the crowd putting flyers in pockets without anyone noticing. Liddy had postulated that simply finding the flyers would be enough to...
Hope wasn't sure what to make of Liddy and Emma as they walked out of the print shop. Each carried a bundle, Liddy the flyers and Emma the materials from the magic shop, but they both looked like something strange had happened. “Everything alright?” Hope...
Easy let her wings flutter in the breeze as she looked over the railing at the city their ship was flying over. Mari held her by the hips to keep her from falling over again and shivered at the chill wind her so-called clothing failed to mitigate. “I thin...
Hannah hadn't had any time to ask Ving how her flight went. Ving had been overwhelmed with excitement and too desperately in the mood to talk as she pushed Hannah into her racer and closed the door. Hannah set her weapon down in the cockpit as Ving tore o...
Sarasha, for the first time in a long time, felt like she was the normal person in the room. “We needed to keep those golems! They were so much fun!” Harriott exclaimed. “They were all bound to that guy's brother, who was dead in the basement,” Conna repl...
