《Aliens.exe》Chapter 44 - Jake's Failed Job Application
Advertisement
“Finished!” cried Jake. It had only taken him a couple of hours, which was quite good for a job application form. He was quite proud of his accomplishments too, there was no way he was getting the job.
“Excellent,” said Green_Turtle_Boy_369 who had hung around to show Jake his new surroundings, and flirt heavily with Leina, the receptionist Jake had already met.
“Let’s have a look then.”
Jake handed it over, a smirk on his face.
“Ha!” laughed Green_Turtle_Boy_369. He nodded, “I like that.. Listen to this!” he called. Jake’s future colleagues gathered around his desk.
“Do you like having sexual relations with your co-workers?” Green_Turtle_Boy_369 began. “Jake’s answered, ‘Yes I do, but only if they clearly don’t. It’s far more fun that way, and to be honest I much prefer girls when they’re crying.”
“Oh Jakey,” cried Leina putting her arm around him. “I hate office relationships! You must never, ever, try it on with me…”
Jake squirmed under her heavy and slimy touch.
“What do you prefer to wear to work? I don’t prefer to wear anything, but you’ll probably all need to wear a stab vest, or a bikini. That’s brilliant!”
Jake felt his heart sinking into his shoes. This really wasn’t having the effect he had hoped. Green_Turtle_Boy_369 carried on scanning Jake’s application form.
“This is the best one! To, ‘ on a scale of 1 – 10, how traitorous are you?’ Jake has answered, ‘Eleven. I am a complete and utter scumbag and I have always been a scumbag. I have only ever had one job before, and I got fired on the first day for setting fire to their clothes store.” This was clearly untrue, Jake didn’t do going out in public, shunning society still trumped destroying society. “My most recent example of traitorship was in beginning in inter-galactic war between the Outer Galaxies and Crawk. I did this, despite my home galaxy having worked to stay safe for thousands of years, but I ran a computer program to allow the notoriously evil race of the Crawklings to invade. I did this just for a laugh, and to be honest, if I became the Crawk-King, Leader of War, I would take great delight in telling the Outer Galaxies all of Crawk’s secrets as that would be funny too.”

Jake looked around, everyone was smiling and Leina was licking her lips seductively at him.
“Congratulations Jake, you’ve definitely got the job! I really didn’t think you had the Crawling spirit in you, but you clearly have. Leina – Jake’s last answer looks like a brilliant press release to me, can you send it out? Jake, follow me and I’ll introduce you to the chaos.”
Everyone cheered before the crowd dispersed. Jake, the war hero, was clearly still very popular. Leina returned to her desk with Jake’s form. Jake put his head in his hands.

The Emperor's Chef
"Cook like your life depends on it, kid. Because it does." Charles had an enviable future lined up for him. Training from the age of five by some of the finest chefs in the world. Schooling at a top culinary academy in the capital. An honorable position as heir to House Boulier, a line of merchant-lords who have charmed the rich and powerful with their cooking for centuries. And in a single night, it all burned to ash. When the outbreak of war destroys his hometown, Charles is charged with escorting his family’s sacred treasure—a recipe book passed down for untold generations—out of harm's way. But his simple mission grows complicated when he’s captured by one of the most feared battalions in the world: the Spears of Mercy. Life as a prisoner in their war camp is brutal and uncertain. Charles has few allies and even fewer strengths to rely on. Only his skills in the culinary arts, honed over a lifetime in the kitchen, are deemed useful enough to keep him alive another day. But he’s not out of hope just yet. With a dash of wit, a pinch of luck, and some very creative cooking, he might just find a way to recover his family’s legacy and take back his freedom. This project is a food-themed fantasy that centers on cooking and chefs. The setting spans a wide world featuring ingredients/recipes both real and inspired by traditional fantasy. I'll eventually be publishing it as a full-length novel (or series of novels depending on length). These are the first draft chapters. I'll likely be re-writing more than once, then editing before publishing, so impressions and feedback are quite welcome. If you like the story so far and you're interested in being an early reviewer for the final product, feel free to message me. I'm looking for an artist to make some concept art and a cover (the cover shown here is just a temporary placeholder). A stand-alone novel for now, but it may turn into a series down the road.

Challenged Dungeon and the Arrival of Mana
One day, a few spirits drifting through the astral plane discover Earth and decide to create dungeons to bridge the gap between worlds, and eventually make themselves the gods of Earth. After being created, Three has the misfortune of falling through a grate in an alley in New York City and making that its entrance. Suddenly propelled to sizes much larger than an infant dungeon should be it becomes the frontrunner of all its sibling dungeons, yet faces problems initially attracting creatures. Three's problems only worsen over time as its demanding and seemingly capricious creator gradually strips away its ability to be a true dungeon while compelling it to reach a nearly impossible goal: conquer all humans. Also follow Stan, the alcholic veteran cop and his pet cat Ms. Winters as they get embroiled into the arrival of dungeons and mana. I have most of the story mapped out, but it can still use some work, my goal is to release at least a chapter a week until I am finished. I would greatly appreciate any help proofreading or editing, and advice is always appreciated. UPDATE School caught up with me back then and I lost the thread, so this is now (definitely) dropped, sorry all, maybe I'll get back to it one day.

Notebook of possibilities
First of all, to those who started reading this I want to apologize. While it does have a ring of a nice story title, this is going to be a place where I take the Sparks of interest from other stories or random ideas and just put it down, I'm not sure how exactly but the title should summarize the basics of what is held within. To say it's a waste isn't accurate, to ask the question why is a good start, why would I want this? Because when I read a story I want to think of so many things I may see or find in the world they envision, all the possibilities that could come about, and maybe, just maybe, some author out there can get their hands on this and it will be a spark of creativity for them to make a new chapter and see their world even a smidge closer to what I think it could be. It is tagged as fanfiction for it will pertain to numerous stories, not simply one in particular. Currently it will include; Oblivion Online Dungeon Heart And many more to be listed as they appear.
