New Life : A Second Chance Chapter 389

Sam glared at them, while tapping his feet.
Kyle, Kay and Xing Han immediately went silent, adopting a very obedient stance - just like students who were facing an annoyed teacher.
Nodding his head at them, Sam tapped at his Surface on the dining table, while saying, "Country I sent out their request because some of the scenes were supposedly shot there."
"But it was," Kyle said, puzzled, "I mean, technically, as some of the flashback scenes of John Wick 2 were put in but the latest one wasn't in Country I at all."
"So doesn't that mean it wasn't?" Xing Han pointed out.
"Strictly speaking, you're right but since it's shown, it would be?" Kyle thought about it and then stopped when Sam cleared his throat again.
"Frog in your throat, Sam?" Kyle couldn't help but ask with a grin.
Sam rolled his eyes, "If you stop interrupting me, I wouldn't need to."
Kyle just grinned wider, while saying, "Oh, silly me. Carry on."
"Considering the movie hadn't been released yet, it's only natural that Chad would take up this opportunity to market it in Country I now, wouldn't he? After all, Country I was one of its film locations before," Sam said.
"Also, there can't be too many interviews regarding it for fear of revealing too much of the plot. They want to still create the hype so this is one of the methods to gain more traction."
"Kyle is an unknown and though Keanu may be a big pull, some may not watch because of this unknown factor."
"I get it," Xing Han said with a sigh, "It would have been nice to be how it was with the Ellen Show. She was the best since she had talked about the movie and had fun games."

"Well, not everyone is an Ellen," muttered Sam.
"Anyway, while there's no Keanu, your co-star Harold will be there."
"Ah yes. Harold. The one who played my mentor in the film," Kyle said, "That makes sense. They can't have too many spoilers so the other co-stars would most likely reveal too much of the plot. A mentor, on the other hand, is only expected."
"Yes, indeed," Sam replied.
"But he's old," Xing Han said, "I mean, it won't be a teen game show like it was previously. So would this be a proper interview?"
"Yes," Sam answered, "Just a short 30minute interview, in the normal 'minimalist' type of background. You know, no prop or backdrop. Just you guys on this chair, possibly a table to lean on and that's it."
"Again, nothing like the comfy chairs of the Ellen Show," lamented Xing Han.
Sam rolled his eyes, "Stop comparing to Ellen! Nothing can compare to Ellen."
"True," Xing Han replied, rolling about on the bed again.
"We will arrive a day before the session," Sam went on, "And will be staying an extra three days after to 'sightsee'. Edward is already in place."
"Oh ya," Xing Han said, "You're doing some stuff for Nitocris at Country I, huh?"
"Yes," Kyle confirmed, "Edward will disguise himself as me and go around sightseeing with you guys while I do what needs to be done."
"Man," Xing Han wailed, "We won't be going around together?"
"No," Kyle said, "But can you treat Edward like you do with me? You have to be natural, okay?"
Xing Han looked at Kyle and thought hard, "I don't know if I can, honestly. I mean, you're you. Edward is Edward."

"But you are you," Kyle said, "As long as you're comfortable and friendly with him, it'll be enough. Country I doesn't know how ... erm, well ... "
"How much of a BFF-complex you have," Kay finished with a laugh.
"Hey!" Xing Han protested, "It is not a BFF-complex. It is BFF-love, thank you very much."
"After the interview, Edward and I will exchange positions," Kyle said to Xing Han, "So that should help you get more comfortable around him when I'm not around."
"Huh? You mean, you're not going to be with us at all?" Xing Han asked, completely surprised.
"No," Kyle said, "Edward's room has all of the stuff that I need for my mission in his room, so it'll be too much of a hassle to go from one room to another all the time. Plus, doing so would increase the risk of being discovered."
"Fine," Xing Han replied with a sigh, "But I'll miss you!!"
"Oh please, Xing Han," Kyle said with ruffling his hair, "It's only going to be three days."
"THREE DAYS?!" Xing Han wailed, looking like he was ready to roll about dramatically.
"I'll get you pork chops for dinner while he's gone," Kay said.
"Ooooo! Pork chops!!" Xing Han shouted, his face brightening up.
[You got replaced by pork chops, dear brother]
Kyle laughed.

Scorched - The Winter Winds (LitRPG)
Frank Ebner once wanted to save the world. Let the second one be better than the first. On Earth he was a student of... well it hardly matters anymore. It was dying, and he and the rest of his fellows and friends studying how to stave off the end graduated just in time to be told it was too late. That there was not enough time, funds, will, to stop it anymore. That the governments and the worthies of the world had moved from trying to stop it, to surviving the oncoming apocalypse, while blaming each other. That was a world Frank wanted nothing to do with. One riven by wars for places in the Archologies going up, and between them and the dying world they were leaving behind. So when a strange voice offered him a way out, to a world unmarred by the poison killing his? Frank took it. The voyage changed him, made him fit his new world, one of stats and magic. It came with perks, for in passing through their Heavens, they'd been exposed to Divinity, and taken some of the Celestial within them. Heroes now, but there are heroes, and there are Heroes. The nobility of the Empire care only for those who carry blessed bloodlines, and their time to adapt and train up for the new world is limited. Patrons are scarce among those like Frank, with only the base Hero perks, and magic studies expensive and lengthy. Often requiring heavy Oaths to gain the necessary aid to wield mana as a mage. Frank found another way. It nearly cost him his life. Now on the run and burned by the very magic he sought and craved, he is a pilgrim traveling to the The Eternal Tree, font of Perseverance. Frank hopes Ir-karlak will grant him some way to recover from the fires that scorched him. Without snuffing out the embers those fires lit within, for he has learned to harness them and he would not give up magic for the world. *** In the last 21 days, as I update this, I've managed about 18-19 updates. So Scorched should update most days, muse willing. She's fickle, sometimes. Not every day, but most. If there's an update for the day, it will be at 7PM, GMT+2. *[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Actually completed it. :) *
