...Yup, that is most definatly a girl.
She was staring straight at me with a piercing gaze. Well, not at me, but my body. Which, now that i looked at it, was rather strange. It was completely unlike my last form in both colour scheme and generall shape. It looked like a lily, but in a slightly pink wont with pink spots that became more clustered the closer you got to the middle of the flower. The entire stalk and stem had taken a pale, white colour.
Hm. That must be why photosynthetis dissappeared, eh?
Well, the most eyecatching thing i could see was, of course, not myself, but, as one could expect, the girl.
As stated earlier, she was staring googly-eyed at my flower, as if it had suddently changed from one colour to another.
Her eyes were a bright blue and her hair was a golden blond. The skin was radient and the the lips had a wonderfully pink colour. Yup. Total natural beauty.
Under her probing gaze, i could feel my already pink body take a deeper shade.
Ah.
My eye must have moved too much.
We made eye contact.
”...”
...
”V-, Vad i?...”
!!
S-, She spoke!!
omgosh omgosh whadduido wadduido
aaaaaAAAAAAAA
whydidntshejuststayquietomigoditsbeenyearssinceagirlspoketomeohheckwhatdoidowhatdoido
= Dude, chi-, =
”Öh, v-, vad är du?”
Her comment made my frantic, wiggeling body erect itself in fear.
- Language Swedish Lv.1 has been learned. -
”Hello?” är du alive?”
Th-, that... Th-, thank you, Vo-, ehem, Pluto!
= Not my authority, but no prob =
I wiggleled a bit, almost as a response.
She gasped and almsot jumped back. Hopefully not in fear. I think it was just in surprise. Lets pretend she was just surprised at my movement.
I tried wiggeling slowly to show a sort of ”i am not dangerous, do not be afraid”.

”F-, Försöker du hypnotize me?! J-Jag think not bli sådan!”
She said, jumping to her legs.
Racking my brain, i tried to think of a universal sign of peace. Aha!
Quickly, i threw two roots into the air and held them as high above me as i could. which was not too high, as my level was rather low.
”V-, Vad means that!?”
- Swedish has reached Lv.2. -
Right on time!
I wave my roots back and forth.
”S-, Stop!”
As i, for once, understood what she said, i immidietly stopped.
”U-, um? Understand du what i säger?”
I keep my hands in the air.
Come on, come on...
”Åh! Um, um... If du understand what i säger, nicka.”
And, to supplement her proposal, she made a nodding lotion.
Aha! I understand!
It was tough, but i could somehow force my head to nodd up and down.
”R-, Really?! du can!?!”
I only nodded.
Tears started forming in her eyes.
”Åh, Herrmann, i kan inte believe att du still live, can man tänka oneself? I har missed du i en hel week, and you har bara suttit there. Jag got you till och with en pot! Att du still would leva...”
Tears streamed down her face, and i could only stare agape in my confusement.
What the hell is she talking about...?
- Swedish has reached level 3. If you please, all words may now be translated, however, not as sentances. -
I dont care, hit me!
”Tell me, is you Herrmann?”
Who is Herrmann though
”If it is so, please, nodd!”
I didnt nodd.
”...”
We both remained still.
”...!”
Her smile turned uppside down and tears of a different kind started welling up in her eyes.
What did I do now?...

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.
8 166Stairway to Heaven
Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings, far too weak to survive amid the other extraterrestrials that lie dormant across the galaxies. Instead of physical altercations, they would rather engage in verbal abuse, breaking an individual's psyche as a hobby. They excel at deception and manipulation, far too interested in bringing their brothers and sisters down and reaching for the top of their self-made hierarchies. Beyond their questionable nature and moral compasses, they long to find meaning in their lives and put names to the feelings that drive each passing moment. They are insatiable—far too greedy for more knowledge and a supposed understanding of their lives. It's pitiable, really, the way they struggle to find themselves while ravaging their kind through petty wars and conflicts built off of misunderstanding. Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings. They created words and languages to fill the holes that lived inside their souls, desperate for ways to find meaning in their incredibly short lifespans. They'll waste their entire lives trying to find their so-called passions and reasons for living, acting as if they truly rule the way their lives go, supposed "controllers of their own destiny." Yet, they cannot evade the inevitable visit from death, who stands next to them, ticking the seconds down until their demise.
8 98The Plan
An infinite world couldn’t be real, but if it was, well this would happen. Imagine a world that isn’t covered in water, but an endless atmosphere. Plates of land, named “islands”, float and drift almost aimlessly. There is no sun, stars, roof, or floor; just boundless air in every direction. Light is generated from the movement of air flow. Magical and mystical powers keep islands floating and the world full of fresh entropy. Some of these floating islands drift upwards or downwards or any combination of volatile or patterned velocities. Air flow also follows the same characteristics of islands, which generates the light and heat. In a world with no horizon, the different inhabitants struggle. Beings calling them selves deities across the endless space are countless. If you were to fall off an island, you would inevitably hit another island; if you didn’t die from old age first. Many inhabitants don’t know the land further than their own eye sight or town they grew up in. Almost all inhabitants of islands have supernatural abilities, ranging in ability and skill. Magical abilities are kept individually; and mystical powers are borrowed. Islands float because the land is enchanted by either a magical or mystical crystal. Magical islands are known for vertical variance, while mystical islands are known for vertical stability. The islands rotate around focal points, known as 'the center'. There are many 'the center', but no one knows this yet... Warning: Tagged Mature 18+ for Strong Language, Gore, Violence, and sexual scenes. Google Drive (Click here to open new window) WIP/spoilers
