《Try Me!》Chapter 2: Needs
Advertisement
GROWLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
I wake up to my own stomach growling and I'm hungry and thirsty as hell! It is nice to wake up to a bright sunshine albeit hungry as hell. Apparently, I didn't become a wolfs stool after all pretty lucky. Was worried considering I lost consciousness in absence of my willingness.
Well forget that I need to find something to eat and drink first. I look around my surroundings hoping to find something of nutrition. As empty as a college student’s wallet. All I see is gigantic roots swarming over each other. While following one of the roots I see a round red fruit. Looks juicy and plump full of juice and nutrition. Just looking at it makes me drool GROWLLLLLLLL!!!
Shit now it's starting to hurt. Now how to procure the that high hanging luscious fruit. On second thought it might poison or even kill me...
Aaa screw that got no other choice anyway.
Seeing it's almost 2 meter form the ground it's impossible to climb up there to get it with these stumpy legs and arms. Next option would be hit it with something anything rock for example. I pick up a rock from the ground and throw it with all the strength I can muster. First try right next to it, second try about 1.8 meters high, third try barely 1.4 high and I'm already exhausted falls to ground.
GROWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!
Ohh, I can feel the strength leaving my body. Oh god this is it, I'm going to starve to death. Shit I had so much to do, so much to see, so much to live for. Oh shit.
Just as I was wailing pathetically while waiting starvation for some reason the fruit fell on its own and rolls next to me. After moment of surprise I gobble the fruit like the most delicious food in the world and it tasted divine. Full of juice and nutrition. SO. FUCKING. DELICIOUS!!!

HALLELUJAH!!!
So, this is "finger licking good" feels like.
After satiating my hunger, I feel strange yet comfortable warmth going through my stomach and from there branching out to my whole body making me very sleepy. And hello darkness my old friend...
Of course, I wake up in my mind palace once again. But this time it's different it's greener. Every single block is painted green. Feels like this palace is full of vitality like forest fresher and more alive. And first door from the left is made out of ivy with picture of a bushy green tree. I try to open it but it's still locked that sucks.
Welcome to Main Interface
Information scanning: 13:00:00
So, I've been sleep for almost 10 hours and struggled with the hunger for almost 1 hour, hmm efficient.
Well since I got nothing else to do let’s check out the room on second floor. I open the door and enter the room. Let’s take a good look last time I got distracted by the interface. Bright room, don't know where light is coming from. Square room can't see the ends of the room, simple wooden book shelves, now that I took a good look not all shelves have a book most are empty. Only ones in the front are full of books. I pick up the first book on first self from left and open it on it
Sleep and Sedative States Induced by Targeting the Histamine and Noradrenergic Systems:
"Sedatives target just a handful of receptors and ion channels. But we have no satisfying explanation for how activating these receptors produces sedation. In particular, do sedatives act at restricted brain locations and circuitries or more widely? Two prominent sedative drugs in clinical use are zolpidem, a GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator, and dexmedetomidine (DEX), a selective α2 adrenergic receptor agonist. By targeting..."

After reading the first page I finally understand how I knew about sedative induced sleep.
After putting the first book I pick up the second book and take look.
Wolf:
"The wolf (Canis lupus),[a] also known as the gray wolf, timber wolf,[4][5] western wolf,[b] and its other subspecies is a canine native to the wilderness and remote areas of Eurasia and North America. It is the largest extant member of its family, with males averaging 43–45 kg (95–99 lb) and females 36–38.5 kg (79–85 lb).[7] Like the red wolf, it is distinguished from other Canis species by its larger size and less pointed features, particularly on the ears and muzzle.[8] Its winter fur is...."
And now I know how I knew. So apparently this room contains someone’s knowledge wait not exactly knowledge more like subconscious knowledge of experience. So peculiar that my mind palace contains someone else's knowledge.
But even more peculiar thing is I seem to be okay with it. Not because I'm numb but because all this seems so familiar as if it's supposed to be all mine.
Peculiar, truly peculiar.

A Nerd's Wet Dream Come True (Tossing an OC into Marvel) V2.
Andrew William. A perfectly average boring name for a perfectly average and boring boy. He wasn't particularly smart nor gifted. Not in academics nor in sports. He wasn't even as good as the other losers and "nerds" in his school. He could not remember the expansive lore of Star Wars, he could not recite the dialogue of Startek nor pull off any cool one-liners and quotes, and he couldn't beat the final level in most games without resorting to cheating or mods. All he had was half-assed knowledge of pop culture and comics, but the one thing he was good at, his one and only pride and calling in life? Making Youtube videos. No, it wasn't sad! He was actually quite popular, honest! He made videos of adventure and nature, although it was mostly of the creepy variety. Abandoned hospitals, old mines, long tunnels, and undiscovered caverns. And as ironic as it was predictable, it would, of course, turn out to be the reason that he died. Well, at least he could take comfort in dying doing what he loved, not many people these days could say the same, you know? The concept comforted him at least, but it turns out death is not always as permanent as people liked to think, because Andrew somehow found himself in New York City of all places after falling to his certain death in the Devil's hole, Death Valley Nevada., only thing was it certainly wasn't the New York that he knew of. The Fantastic Four? Stark Industry? Captain America's biography? Oh boy, and did he mention he's no longer human? His Asian friends had introduced him to the wonders of Isekai novels and mangas, but isn't the order a little messed up? Where's his meeting with the sexy and nice Goddess? Where was his intro or tutorial?? Explanation plz I'm a noob at cross-dimensional travel! Help? Setting? Menu? Status? May I please get to pick my own cheat power? No? I'm stuck as a virus? Well, At least the Prototype Virus was pretty darn cool and OP. Just not as op as being able to casually break the sound barrier in my sneakers or bench pressing the earth, but I'll just have to make do. Please don't be some fucked up Marvel continuity where Nazis and Hydra won or some shit. Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore

A D&D Gamer in Garweeze Wurld
He doesn't know how he got here, and while the trappings are familiar, he doesn't actually know where he is, either. From the perspective of those around him, Duromar is a half-ogre barbarian, an uncivilized brute by any standard you care to use. But from his perspective, he's a character created in a gaming system. From either one, he must live within the rules of that system. This is the story of a gamer who ends up in a game that's just a bit off from what he knows. ---- I wanted to write something a little bit old-school. Most of the LitRPG I've found seems to be based on computer RPG styled stories. Progression through levels is fast, and depending on the game, skills and even attributes can be trained with or without class levels. This wasn't true with the older pen and paper games, and that's the style of leveling I wanted to write.
