《The Adventures of Tommy Johnny: Stuck In the Void》Chapter 6
Advertisement
Tommy Johnny was drinking some water from one of his remaining water bottles and fiddiling with his shirt in the void. He was getting low on food and water and it was the middle of the second week in the void.
He put away his stuff in the trunk and hoped that the next Watcher gift would be some more storage space or rope. Unfortunatley that did not happen.
Tommy began to hear something as he saw a rectangular box drift towards him. It was quite faint but he could barely hear it.
Soon it came close and it seemed like the song was at the end and was about to start again. The music player was a bit basic and only had one song.
Tommy grabbed hold of the box and waited until the music came out.
"never give you up, never gonna let you down."(I don't know the lyrics)
Tommy held the music player for two hold seconds as he registered what the Watchers did to him.
"OH YOU SHITHEADS!!!!"
'Those bastard watchers rick rolled me'
'I wonder who rick rolled me'
On the bottom of the music player was a tag that said:
'vincent2000'
"Great, thank you vincent2000, you shithead. Thanks I needed a good laugh."
Tommy sighed as he let the music player continue drifting away into the void.
"I hope I actually get some actual entertainment that is not memey but good stuff. Maybe provisions, hopefully."
Tommy saw two more things coming toward him as the music player vanished from view into the void. He saw a movie player and a book come towards him.
He raised his eyebrow at the book and guarded his stomach from the book. Thankfully the book and movie player were coming slowly and he was able to catch it. As soon as he grabbed the movie player, it disappeared and a screen popped up next to him, scaring the shit out of him.

Tommy also grabbed the book before turning his attention back to the screen.
There was a line of text on the screen which read:
"Here's a 'gift' so you won't be bored for awhile. muhahaha! -Dunno1234"
After Tommy read the line out loud the text vanished and two movies showed up on the screen. The movies were the Cats and The Emoji Movie. Tommy stared at the two movies and realized that the Watchers were fucking with him.
The screen also had a play function that plays them both once a week. Tommy sighed as he realized there was nothing he could do to stop it. At least the book had something legible.
The title of the book was about him surprisingly and he excitedly opened the book to the front page. What greeted him did not give him great confidence about the book. He saw Dunno1234 on page one and considering his last "gift" this was going to screw with him again.
He turned the page and his guess proved him right as the letters were illegible and utter bullshit.
Tommy Johnny threw the book away and turned his fists to the void and flipped off Dunno1234.
The Watchers did not do anything as he did this, they just watched silently.
Tommy did not flip any of the other Watchers off because he is relying on them for his survial and he is going to soon be out of food and water soon. So he prayed/yelled into the void for some help.
"Hey Watchers please, I would like some food and water and other stuff. I need to survive the void."
Tommy Johnny was satisfied with that and began watching the two movies while drifting in the void.

Rising World
Vonn of Shieldpoint is an ambitious young inventor who, as far as his family knows, just survived a terrible accident. Really, he didn't. Instead a being known as the System has recruited the soul of a modern college student from our world, to fill in for him. Given a new life in a new body, the former human wants to make good use of it and fulfill the dreams of the one he's replacing. He's an Engineer in a world where that's a character class with explicit levels and stats. This world is just discovering the power of steam and clockwork and the occasional magic dungeon crystal, so Vonn is just in time to become a famous genius. He just needs to figure out what the gods actually want from him. (LitRPG Isekai with light but important stats, nonhuman MC. Cover art by Alexandra, https://www.deviantart.com/oktoberbeef .) This book is now available on Amazon! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B09H5CQSX5 For legal reasons, I need to hide most of the content from Royal Road for now. The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well! Thanks to all who read, commented, bought, and/or spread the word. Right now I'm working on a side-story about character Selen, and posting that starting yesterday. I do plan to do a true sequel this year, yet.

Syche: The Dark Element
In a modern world where the four elements (no, not those elements; don't stop reading yet) are controlled by the select few born with the gift, seventeen-year-old Joshua Rasgard is horribly, painfully normal. And that’s not changing. No really. He survives by his wit and acute knowledge of how adventures should go, unlike his younger brother Kael who would rather disintegrate his problems to ash. Together, they're on a globe spanning treasure hunt that is about to take a dark turn. While hunting for clues, Joshua decides to rescue an ex-superpowered-assassin named Gianna. Doing so puts a target on all of their backs and thrusts them into a global conflict not unrelated to the treasure hunt. The one thing Joshua knows is that he is out of his element.

Theory of Rifts (LitRPG)
You can join my Discord here. Keynes Kid is gifted with a photographic memory and being several months away from receiving Level 1, and a Talent, he finds himself in the center of attention of people who want to shape his Talent. If they can get him an intelligence related Talent, they will hit a jackpot. The Talent Unlocking ceremony finally comes and Keynes Kid receives… Error… Anomaly (What?) His new talent is… useless. Why then does the World Government want Keynes so badly they will silence anyone who knows about his Talent? At the same time... Somewhere in the Universe, ancient beings stir from their slumber, awoken by the system alert and the wall of glaring red warnings. Their greatest fear just manifested and they are hell-bent on erasing it from existence. -------- It is a slow-development story, so you won't find the MC with super powers at the beginning. -------- It is a coming of age story and focuses on a Talent system (in the beginning) with several additions that bring to the table upgrading of a planet’s tier and such (a bit later). There will be quite an amount of rebuilding society as new, unknown resources enter the economy, and a lot of travelling, delving and naturally, unlocking the secrets of the Universe. As for the setting, the story starts in XXI century, which technology-wise isn't much different from what we have now, but it is enhanced by magic associated with Talents. This allowed the humankind to colonize the solar system, but the technology that allows for interstellar travel doesn't exist (yet). Because it’s my first attempt at LitRPG, please be forgiving but constructive. I hope you will enjoy the story! --- Cover by Daniel Gembus https://www.artstation.com/daniel_gembus instagram.com/danielgembus
