《Pilgrims and Fulcrums》Longing and Decomposition
Advertisement
After all the thankfulness -
gratitude galore (I thought) -
even now, doubt creeps in...
or, my favorite, struts.
It's not my friend.
I'll act like
it, but
no.
Longing isn't easy to carry,
no matter how much you practice.
Easier to let it turn,
like an overripe fruit,
into discontent.
Sure, hate your life.
It reeks more
for that.
Gross.
Longing really hurts,
but way less than
pretending
to love
less.
Only one way to keep things good,
and that's to give it to God.
Dunno how He does it,
but I'm glad He does.
So contentment
feels like pain
sometimes.
Fair.

Rumble Circuit (Sci-Fi and Fantasy Themed Progression Isekai/Fighting GameLit)
Janus Campbell can't fight. And unfortunately for him, that's the only way to survive. Upcoming physicist Janus Campbell is trapped in the world of Tersaia, where shadow monsters lurk the streets, anyone can be monitored at any time and fighting is the best way to make a living; either through the Rumble Circuit, a world-wide ranking of combatants that keeps track of participants’ wins and losses in competitive duels, or through slaying the constantly spawning Essencima that terrorize the population. Unfortunately for Janus, he doesn’t know how to fight. No special moves. No signature techniques. Not even a basic grab. However, there are two people that might be able to help him out. Itzel, an avaricious woman with the ability to manipulate the wind, and Gurk, a man-crocodile hybrid of few words that can control ice, are the ones that will have to help Janus if they ever want to leave the harrowing alleys of Labrisson and rank up in the Rumble Circuit. Updates Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday *Art is not mine. It's commissioned.

What Was Lost Outside Time
What happens to a mind, subjected to an infinite span of time? What remains, when it is taken out again? This is the story of an individual reborn after such time has passed that nothing remains of what it was; an individual who must learn once again what it is to be, beginning with awareness of the idea of awareness, and growing from there; from awareness of self, to awareness of others, to awareness of society, and on. This is the story of a mind; growing, learning, adapting, and becoming more. -- Currently the first three chapters are - well, kind of experimental. I both like and hate these; they were a pain to write, and I'm told by at least one person that they're painful to get through, but I think something like them is necessary to set one of the basic ideas about the way the story is written. It gets slightly more normal after that, the first arc of the story is rather "battle school", and I think I may need to go back and edit it - the characterization didn't end up working out as well as I had originally hoped, unfortunately, and ended up rather weak to my eye. I may go back and add a sub-plot or two, depending on how well I can handle the intended perspective shift of the second arc. -- Currently on hiatus, in case that wasn't obvious. I'm debating between rewriting large portions of what I've already written, and just finishing out the story, but either way, I don't actually have a clear idea of what I want to do right now. If I'm still feeling the same way in a few months I'll put a chapter up explaining where the story was going, maybe, so the people who have enjoyed it can know where the story was intended to go, and close this out.
