《Spaceslime》Day 9 - On a roll
Advertisement
So I had the nightmare again, not that it really was a surprise.
And this time I can feel yet again that there is a lump right next to my body.
Earlier I would have thought that this was a new golden treasure, from good old Mr. Pick and Flick, but now I am older and wiser.
“I name thee Lumponite”
Anyway, I feel really great today, more energetic than ever, the screw I ate yesterday is gone but I can feel that there seems to be a very tiny round ball in my center that is a little strange, it is more solid than the rest of me, but I can tell that it is still a part of me and not something that I can dissolve.
Not much I can do about it anyway, time to experiment with that new thing I learnt yesterday,
I start spinning my internals and sure enough, my body starts moving along the floor.
Cool, this is really going to speed things up.
I decide to try and go another direction so I stop my internal rotation.
Immediately my body returns to its starting point.
Luckily I did not hit that darned Lumponite.
I decide to stick to my old mode of wriggling away to move myself for now.
Not like there is a point in gaining all that speed just so that I will automatically return when I want to go in a different direction.
I back to where I ate the screw yesterday.
The plate is still stuck apparently, but as there still are more screws that I can feel so it is not really surprising, I also remember seeing screws higher up in the dream so I probably need to grow quite a bit before reaching them so I can remove this plate and eat it.

When I think of it, I really need to grow a lot just to be able to eat the plate as it is many times bigger than me.
I can feel the screw hole, from yesterday’s screw and also the screw that is located above it that I can feel but not really grab onto, according to the dream there should be 4 screws located above each other on both ends of the plate and also a row of 8 screws located along the top, giving me a total of 13 screws left to eat before I can even get the plate loose.
I go to the screw on the opposite side of the plate as that is the only one left that I can really grab onto and start the process of pulling it out so I can eat it.
I have a new motto for life: “If I can eat it I am going to eat it” Of course there is an exception with the Lumponite but let us not dwell with that.
I grab onto the screw and do the same thing as yesterday, soon the screw is loose and floating inside me. I am tired but not as tired as yesterday, apparently practice makes perfect or something. I can feel that the screw is actually slowly dissolving inside me but that stops after a short while. I wonder why it is like that.
Hmm, my insides are still spinning like crazy.
I stop the spin fully aware of what is going to happen next.
And sure enough my body accelerates back towards Ms. Tingleywall.
As I slam into the love of my life, I am truly grateful that I did not encounter the Lumponite this time.
My consciousness fades away as I think it would be great if I could figure out how to use that spinning thing to move in a single direction without having a forced return to my point of origin when I want to change direction.

Exponential Mana Regeneration
When the Change occurred, humanity suddenly found itself with superhuman constitutions and the ability to use mana. All the government leaders had known about it beforehand and had made an announcement, so there was little strife and instead excitement to loot the dungeons that the Change had created. Kyle Anders was incredibly excited when he saw his starting skill, called Exponential Mana Regeneration, but his excitement quickly waned when he realized it was almost useless with his starting mana pool of twenty. He had nearly given up hope on being a mage when his family got him a new skill for his 18th birthday. Suddenly, with his mana pool expanded because of the skill, Kyle’s mana regeneration shot through the roof. But while humanity worked hard to loot dungeons and increase their skills and stats, Change was coming, and peace cannot last forever. The story is currently on haitus. (This story is a work in progress. As the first story that I have ever written, the beginning, especially the first ten chapters or so, needs heavy editing. I have decided to continue writing the story instead of going back and editing the beginning. I hope that despite all its flaws you will still find my story enjoyable.)

Frameshift
Magic. Math. Not a whole lot of context. Two months ago, I was a wormhole navigator, ripping open a hole in the universe to save a ship of people who only vaguely tolerated me. Two weeks ago, long story short, I threaded an impossible path through the void between dimensions to crash-land into a dungeon. You know the kind: monsters to defeat, corridors full of traps to avoid, and magical powers to earn. I'm not ashamed to admit that it's been two weeks of loneliness, fear, adrenaline, and constant injury. But I'll make it out of here by myself if I have to, or my name isn't Adam Leviathan James. ... too bad the Levi doesn't stand for Leviathan, huh. AN: Expectations should include in medias res, violence, smut, friendship, and powers/progression systems with absolutely an insufficiency of context and (at least at first) no definitions or explanations, and magic-as-programming/engineering (with something of an emphasis on "what if magical runework were an analogue to circuit diagrams"). This story used to be called "Yet Another Godsforsaken Isekai". Discord server: https://discord.gg/dHh3XMMB4T Cover by the amazing Daedalus of The Way Ahead.

Distant Leaps to Circinus
A dark fantasy story that takes place on a reborn Earth. "With all the planets in the universe, it just had to be this one." Not many thoughts came to mind when scientists said they could provide the Earth with nearly infinite power. Humans could only think about the future, after all: they could travel to the farthest reaches of space, never worry about their electric bills again, and give rise to new and innovative technologies. With such good outcomes on the horizon, there was no way humanity would sit idle; instead, they studied perhaps the most powerful entity in the entire Milky Way. It seemed that, after its appearance decades ago, the strange and unmoving black sphere was something of a godsend. There will always be a reason for these things. With one touch, our very reality was but a grain of sand in an hourglass. In an instant, the Earth was gone - replaced by something… different. More than a century later, Earth’s remains have reformed into a completely different beast - a planet both alive and dead at the same time. Physics that were once understood no longer made sense, giant land masses floated in the sky, and billions of people fought for their very survival. Work, sleep, and play were no more; it was time for the world, Circinus, to reign. The birth of Circinus could only be the beginning. The powerful yet ever-elusive black sphere seemed to watch the world from afar - casting light for those below, but never truly emitting light from itself. What does it all mean for the children of Circinus - children born with eyes that seemed to stare into God’s heart?
