《The Dark Star Emperors》Chapter 78: Mizu's Worries
Advertisement
Mizu knew that they were going to argue, but she didn't know about what. She usually did listen from a corner hidden away. However, once she learned that Yune and Eli were arguing about her and her friends, she felt a sudden twist in her stomach. She became upset and broken, and assumed the worst. She assumed that Yune would make her not talk to those other kids, but she had no desire to. Not that it mattered. Mizu loved Eli and Yune, but always felt that Yune was controlling at times. But because Mizu felt like they were a real family, she could bare it. But she couldn't handle not being with her friends. As soon as she figured this, she dropped the wrapper and ran away. She wasn't planning on running away, but needed some time to think.3 It was dark and cold, but she didn't mind.
She ran and ran until her legs began to give out. When she was done running, she thought to herself. She ended up at the park. She sat down by one of the benches and regained her breath.
She thought that maybe that she could convince Yune. Eli had no problem with her friends, so why wouldn't Yune? But Mizu knew it would take more than one play-date. She understood Yune's paranoia. However, she became determined to show her that there were people other than themselves that they could trust. Anne and Kira were kind girls. They cared for others. Even Nina who looked very similar to Yune from the outside was soft on the inside.
Mizu just needed time to convince Yune. And she knew that Eli would help. She thought that Yune was like an egg. Hard on the outside, but once you break the shell, she's soft and caring. That's how Yune acts around Mizu and Eli. At least when they're not arguing. And most importantly, Yune was still family. Yune was half-right. They were the closest thing to a family, and they needed each other. However, for the other half, Mizu knew that Yune needed to learn to trust others.

With a newfound resolve, she planned to head back home and try to convince Yune. All she needed was a little luck and persuasion.
She was about to head back home, but then one of those dark monsters appeared nearby. She began to sense the Night Demon close to her. A chill ran up her spine and she knew.
"Yune and Eli aren't here. No worries. I'm still a hero. And heroes don't give up whether they're alone or together," Mizu said aloud to give herself some confidence. She transformed and continued, "Don't worry, Yune. Eli. I'll convince you that there is good in other people. Not everybody wants to take things away from us. We'll be together and our family will grow even stronger."
An orange portal came out from underneath Mizu as she appeared to hover. Obsidian began to cover her as she transformed. And when it was done, her pink and light-red outfit glared out.
Then, when the transformation was done, she smiled with a new sense of resolve. She dashed forward towards the creature.

They Are Our Smols
You’ve read They Are Smol. You’ve enjoyed They Are Smol (if you haven’t, well, prepare to not enjoy this one either). But this is smols like you’ve not seen them before. This is extreme smolness with a lemon twist: smols fucked up big time in this one, and Earth, well… Earth is empty of smols. At least the ayys hope so, because it’s fallout time back there. The ones that got away — and let’s face it, it was all of them that were left — had no place to go. Homeless, smol and needing protectings, they were taken in. For the lucky ayys out there, they’re our smols. This is a not-so-serious slice of life alternate universe where the entire population of Earth, what was left after the dead man’s switch was flipped and the nukes successfully irradiated the planet, were evacuated en masse and then taken in by the galactic civilization at large. I’ll probably write a few more in this silly, comfy alternate timeline to expand on what’s different, but don’t take it too seriously, okay? I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only u/tinyprancinghorse.TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a Website and a Patreon.

The Lucky Secret
Five years ago, the Tower appeared in the Arctic circle, and people started to disappear. Not that any of this affected Cillian James, who was too busy keeping the lights on with webnovels he didn't want to write to really concern himself with some omniscient tower kidnapping people at random.That is, until Cillian is kidnapped himself, and now he has some very big problems on his hands. Namely, surviving the Tower and its homicidal salamanders and zombies and weirdly affectionate cats, and learning the truth behind the existence of the amulet titled "The Writer's Secret". Cilian isn't particularly athletic, given he spent six years glued to a computer chair, and the Tower can only give him so much strength before he's considered a lost cause, and he's not prepared in the slightest for this. He's a bit weak, he hates killing, and spends more time screaming than he does actually fighting, but if there's one thing he's got going for him, it's his impressive self-perseveration skills. But is surviving truly enough, if it changes you into someone you don't recognize? How much will he have to sacrifice before he can even call himself Cillian?
