《Raising a Mutant: A Young Superman (and friends) Hurt/Comfort Adoption Fic》Chapter 7: Blanket Fort
Advertisement
Clark was not supposed to get up and play after lights out. He used to do it all the time. Dad told him he'd be in trouble if he did it again.
But neither of them were even tired! As long as they stayed quiet, Mom and Dad wouldn't know.
Lex taught Clark how to play a game called Warrior Angel and Devilicus. Lex said was from a comic book. Clark hadn't heard of it, but it sounded fun. Clark got to pretend to be the hero, while Lex was the evil bad guy, and Clark chased him through the tunnels of the blanket fort to defeat him and save the city.
"I got you, Devilicus!" Clark grabbed onto Lex's arm. He kept his voice quiet, so Mom and Dad wouldn't hear.
"You will never defeat me!" Lex turned to wrestle him.
Clark let Lex pin him to the floor. He knew he could beat Lex if he wanted to, but a normal six-year-old couldn't beat a thirteen-year-old, so Clark had to pretend.
Lex seemed really weak, though. Weaker than Pete, actually—and Clark only let Pete win at wrestling about half the time. Maybe Lex was going easy on him on purpose. Clark pushed back gently against Lex's hands, and found that Lex easily let him up. Clark carefully pushed him to the carpet.
"Oh no! You've defeated me!" Lex whispered.
"I'm gonna tear down your evil fortress!" Clark jumped onto the blanket fort and rolled around, knocking down the pillows.
"You haven't seen the last of me, Warrior Angel! I'll be back!" Lex crawled over to Clark and started tickling him.
Clark laughed. A little too loud. He gasped and put his hands over his mouth.
The door opened a moment later.
Clark backed up as Dad stepped into the room.
"Clark, what did we talk about?"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He should have listened! He hated being in trouble.
Lex cleared his throat. "Mr. Kent, I—"
"You and I will be having a talk about house rules later, Alexander." Dad turned to Clark. "Come on, let's get you back in bed."
"But Dad—"
"Now."
Clark's eyes felt watery. He sniffled and picked up his blanket. "Night, Lex."
"Night," Lex said, but he sounded worried. Clark hoped he wouldn't get in trouble too.

Old Version - The First Magician
INDEFINITE HIATUS I always seem to make these too long when I ask for peoples opinions so I’m not gonna try an exciting description anymore but instead just give you an idea of what to expect. First off, this is my 2nd attempt at a story but my foundation for this one is much better than the 1st already and I see this going much further and so far its coming together much faster and easier. So please excuse me if things are not up to publishing standards. Also I tend to confuse your, you’re and so on so sorry to people that triggers ahead of time. The First Magician follows the story of 15 year old Alex in a post apocalyptic rpg-ish world in the near future. Earth was transformed, monsters appeared and people began being able to use Ki but could not figure out how to use magic. Alex ends up becoming the first human able to use magic through a series of events and sets in motion events that will change the very future of the human race. He will be somewhat OP simply because he is the only human (at least to start, who knows about later?) who is able to use mana. Many classic RPG elements have been removed. I didn’t want the story to be like all of the other lit rpg stories on RRL but it also makes the writing easier for me hence the watering down of rpg elements. UPDATES: I am doing this to relieve stress and for fun so I will release chapters when I can. So far though ive managed to keep up with 2 most days. CONTENT WARNINGS: There will be some light language but it won't be insane. I might have some gore later on but am unsure and the same for the sexual content. Sexual content isn't super likely as I doubt I can write it well but I put the tag so people cant yell about it if I add some in the future but forgot to add the tag. COVER ART: Yes it is from the anime Log Horizon. It is a good representation of what earth looks like despite it not being many years in the future. DISCORD: https://discord.gg/s6V3hGV

Night Terror
Story is currently 'on hold' for an indefinite period of time - I will eventually post the whole thing when it's complete, see the news post for more details. After dying young, a man reincarnates into a new world as Abe Haruki. 'This whole world is suspicious...' Despite the fact that Haruki had never once met a god, even during his reincarnation, he couldn't help feeling that this world was just too... Intelligently designed? I mean, seriously... Levels? Classes? Stats? Items? You can even level up your abilities! 'Definitely suspicious...' Unfortunately, the Church have been keeping close tabs on him from the shadows. They've heard rumours of a boy, born with a golden ring. With magical affinities that defy logic. Darkness and light energies destroy each other, violently, so how does he have the affinity for both? Can Haruki live his peaceful life along side childhood friend Suzu? Or will they fall to the coming darkness? ::Author's note:: While there are stats and exp etc, it's not LitRPG. They are there, but not the focus in any way. The world is more hardcore - A human is soft, so a pierced lung should eventually kill them. Even though they have a small pool of HP, a single deadly blow can end it all. If you ever want to say G'day, I'm in the discord chat every now and then, so feel free to join the madness ;) Thanks for reading

Tachibana Nobara, a cold and materialistic selfish woman, bought a little Siberian husky from a derelict-looking shop, replacing her late companion and also a pet-friend, a black Doberman pinscher.

She agreed to take him as an assistant after he showed his human's form with a condition he must be a dog all the time except when she told him too. In exchange of that, she needed to help him to break his curse as a little puppy which brought calamity to the one who admired him the most. Despite the deal, Nobara seemed to had no intention or initiative to even help Yuu to break his curse. Regardless of being cursed, Yuu also had a superpower for which he could induce electricity and even lightning bolt without the use of magic either in the form of a human or a dog. As one of the chosen hero, the great 7 sentinels, Nobara's only job was to slay vampire or apprehend them if necessary. Her current mission was on investigation of the vampire's third method of conquering humanity after they had achieved twice failures.

The Magic Man (Very Dead)
John was a fan of system apocalyspes, so he thought he knew what coming when he got caught up in one. He was wrong. This was an apocolypse in the original sense of the word, an unvieling. There were no ravenous hordes of monsters, no genocidal tutorials, and certainly no aliens from another dimension. Just humans. So John thought, "How can I exploit this?" This is my first story, and I am writing it as I go. Dont expect a regular update schedule or much long-term foreshadowing.
