"Joe, have you raised the banners?"
"The banners?"
"Of Course, we're on a mission for the Captain of the bloody QUEEN, Joe. We need to make sure people see that."
"Rob, just the other day you were telling me that the establishment was the enemy to the common man, now you're raising banners for one."
"Look, that was then- this is now. Besides, I've met the woman: A sharp looker and some serious smarts. I'm on board."
"Seriously?"
"Seriously."
"..."
"..."
"It's just because she knighted you for assisting in the Captain's rescue."
"You shut your wifed-up mouth, Joe, or I'll tell your fiance you were staring at that Elf's butt."
"I was not!"
"You were too!"
"I was not!"
"We all were Joe! Nothing to be ashamed of, the first step is admitting."
"If you tell Sarah, I swear to god-"
"I wont, I'm not that terrible a person. Honestly though, in a world like this, I feel like maybe you could keep your options open. You're not married yet you know."
"Rob, I told you already: I love Sarah. We're getting married. Travelling in an alternate reality isn't going to change those things one bit, alright?"
"Alright..."
"..."
"..."
"... I know you're holding back on saying something Rob, I've known you too long-"
"Well it's just that you were really, really staring at that Elf's bu-"
"Shut the fuck up Rob."
"Grouchy, grouchy, no need to be like that. Hey, we're coming to a fork in the road. It's a right, right?"

"Right."
"Right, right?"
"It's a fucking right Rob. Take the right."
"Ah, good. It's tough, the compass doesn't work the same way. Should have figured, but the damn thing just sort of spins towards the West for some reason."
"Magic?"
"Gotta be magic."
"..."
"..."
"Everything is fucking magic here. Hell, I bet if you grew petun-yas around these parts, they'd turn out to be magic."
"It's Petunias Rob. You're saying it wrong."
"Am I really though?"
"Yes."
"Really, really? Peet-Un-as is wrong?"
"God damn it, YES. For the last freaking time: They're Petunias"
"Joe."
"Yes Rob."
"Sarah has ruined you dude. She has straight-up ruined you."
"Well she's not the one who dragged me out of my house in the middle of the night, to go driving off in a Jeep through a portal to fuck-knows-where."
"I personally like to think this is good for you. You've been getting complacent Joe, settled in the calcification of Modern-day Americana."
"Modern calcifying- what?"
"Don't you see Joe? This is the shock to your system! This is what's going to shape and build your character! On day you'll be telling your kids about this adventure! Your Grandchildren! Hell, there's magic and shit here- maybe if you forget about Sarah and hook up with some long-lived Elf or mage chick, some of that immortality could rub off and you might be telling your Great-Great-Grandchildren!"
"Rob, I can't even believe the shit that comes out of your mouth sometimes."
"I figure that you of all people might believe it-"
"I still can't, and besides: Sarah doesn't want kids."
"Wait, wait, wait. I really thought you said you two were still talking that through. Like, that was an ongoing discussion."

"Well it's not. She doesn't want them."
"Didn't you want them?"
"Doesn't matter. Sarah doesn't want kids."
"..."
"..."
"Joe, listen to me for a minute. Head in the game: Forget about Sarah."
"I can't just-"
"Joe, I'm serious. Forget about Sarah and listen to me. You can tell your hypothetical-future children all about your epic adventure: How you slayed Zombies. How you rescued townsfolk. How you saved their hypothetical-mother at the last possible second from a terrible fate, and in return she gave you here undying love and gratitude-"
"Are you trying to go Leonardo DiCaprio on me right now?"
"Saved some hot Mage chick from a foreign land, or a smoking beauty from an Elven tribe of the deep and unexplored Forests! Some Warrior Knight who you rescue at the last possible moment from certain death-"
"Holy shit. You're legit trying to use some Inception-style bullshit on me."
"No! I'm trying to save you Joe, save you from the calcified pile of lame you're going to become if you go back to that woman. I've known you a long time bud, she's going to make you take her way or the highway, every time, no middle-ground."
"... You're a real bastard sometimes Rob"
"I know buddy, you can thank me later."
"... That's not what I was planning on doing."
"Well, whatever it is- it can wait. Put one some ear-muffs and take out that ghoul up ahead will you?"
"With what?"
"I'll slow down, roll back the sunroof for you. Give it a slug."
"Fine."
"Alright, ears on! Give it a good sho-"
BAM
"WOOOOO, awesome hit Joe Good buddy! That was like a watermelon wearing a helmet! I thought you'd be more squeamish about it, but DAMN Joe! Nice shot."
"And yet my desire to kill continues to grow..."

An Unbound Soul
When Peter suffers a too-close encounter with a truck, he finds himself reborn in another world. At first glance it is a perfect fantasy land. There's magic to play with, elves singing in the forest and a hyperactive catgirl neighbour. There's even a System that lets him earn skills and level up. But it isn't long before he notices that the world is far too perfect. Just why is everyone so nice? Can Peter accept the alien morality of this world's self-proclaimed protector, or will he seek to overthrow her? Set after the events of A Lonely Dungeon, a few hundred years after the rebirth of civilization, this is a story about an earthling falling into Erryn's new world and the subsequent struggles of himself and Erryn to understand each other. It's a slow paced slice of life, and while there are pieces of action, don't expect any immediate grand conflict between Erryn and Peter. Published here, scribblehub and amazon. Two new chapters a week on Tuesdays and Fridays.

They Shall Call Me EMPRESS (Cultivation Tales of an Isekai'ed Life Coach)
Meet Lynn Lee: yoga instructor, personal trainer, life coach, and smoothie enthusiast... Not a mystical martial artist. Lynn is nobody special, and yet she awakens to find herself in somebody else's body in a merciless medieval world of martial arts cultivators and superhuman muscle wizards. And, what's more, the quirky meditation technique she's been practicing for years somehow gives her an edge over most of the locals. The only question is... will Lynn survive long enough to take advantage of it? They Shall Call Me EMPRESS is my quirky take on the cultivation novel, a story of a fitness enthusiast Cali girl transported into a realm of immortal warriors and trying to survive... and maybe even thrive beyond her wildest imagination. Chapter updates on Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. Plus, sometimes I accidentally upload chapters on Tuesdays, which will either stand in for the Wednesday chapter or be a weekly bonus chapter. It is a mystery! Please also check out my other novel, The Shadows Become Her

Most people think having powers would be amazing. Not Nate. If he had it his way, he’d never use them and pretend they weren’t there. His powers, though, seem to have other ideas. Uncontrolled powers sound problematic on their own, but when people can destroy entire city blocks with a wayward glance, they become a whole new issue entirely. Nate has always felt like he’s had wary eyes watching him, waiting for him to slip up. So far, he’s managed to just barely keep his head down, but when his powers force him to step into the spotlight, he finds himself caught up in the one life he never wanted; heroism. Now, will he find a way to accept the powers he blames for all his problems, or will he crumble under the pressure? Note: I primarily upload on my website on Sundays . I'll upload here regularly up to a day after the chapters go live on the main site. Vote for aka on TopWebFiction! Feel free to join the aka Discord. In addition to my patreon, you can support aka by buying me a coffee!

RELINQUISH
Sometimes I wonder why the world isn't decorated with something as cool as magic... Why can't we manipulate the laws of the world? Why does the story about God sound too fake to be believed? Why the hope for this world to be saved from the bottom of everyone's heart can never be fulfilled... Then I landed on each conclusion from each of those questions... That humans are the most cunning, meanest and stupidest creatures who are most desperately expected to not have any power including magic itself. That it is not God that we should believe in, because they themselves do not believe in how disgusting human nature really is. That everyone's hope is not for the world to be saved, but for the world to be destroyed in order to save their own selves. That the world from the beginning, was not meant to be saved... (I frequently revise and update the use of sentences in the previous chapters without disturbing the original storyline. so sometimes it takes me a little longer to publish a new chapter.) I have the same novel posted on another website (Webnovel.com , creativenovels.com) with the same name (RELINQUISH)
