《Pilgrims and Fulcrums》Anchors
Advertisement
There's only one anchor that always works.
Fear only works in the light,
when it's made of steel -
but as soon as you start drifting
suddenly it's made of nightmare and shadow
and you let it chase you farther away
than you ever intended to go.
God's love never fails.
God's love is the anchor I've tried to refuse
saying, "no, this is gold-plated,
it's too good for me,"
but it's not gold-plated:
it's solid gold with a diamond chain,
and my worth never entered into it.
God because He loves.
True fear listens and does,
like when you don't touch the fire
because you're told it burns -
and I'm not good at this,
but I want to get better
because I'm told it's worth it.
True fear is powered by love.
So wrap that diamond chain around me,
and dig that gold weight in deep -
"such extravagance,"
the shadows whisper,
and I say, "Yes it is -
but isn't that just like God?"
Because it is. It's exactly like Him.

Arcadis Park
Jonah is a college senior who can't seem to score an internship, so she's returned to the summer job that she's had every year since she was old enough to work: lifeguarding at the run down waterpark on the outskirts of her small town. Things take a turn for the worse when a dismembered body is discovered in the lake that feeds the park's attractions, and the whole staff becomes convinced that they are the murderer's next target. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] (this story is complete as of 12/3/19, though no promises I won't make edits at some point lol)
8 177Origin of Flames
Jennafil, an off-world planet and it's inhabitants used to enjoy an infinite summer. Nature shifts violently. Hints of a blizzard blowing in. People don't believe it, summer, now snow?

8 263Blind
Have you ever wondered what the blind actually see? For Damon, he can't even answer that question. He's been totally blind since birth. He has no concept of light or dark, no colours from which to reference. How is he meant to describe something when he has no visual context to work from. To him it's simply an abyss, or at least he thinks it is.. He doesn't actually know what an abyss looks like. But from the sounds of it, that's as close as he's gonna get to actually knowing what he sees. That is, until he enter's King's Wrath. Welcome one and all to Damon's story as he gains his sight after entering a game in which he must work hard to stay alive and fight to keep the one thing that will let him see what all other's take for granted. I am a first time writer and if you have any tips or if you spot any mistakes please let me know, as I will endeavour to make this story as shiny and polished as possible. Happy Reading!

8 66Volturi imagines...
Another thing I never imagined doing but this is even easier to do than writing a full story. I am gonna do quick imagines/stories feat Volturi characters.
8 111Quirkless?
As a small child my whole perception of the world changed. I was surrounded by liars and fakes. Humans are such a cruel species, if someone doesn't fit they are cast out. People turn a blind eye to cruelty I've faced, people don't care about the quirkless. Except I'm not quirkless. Far from it. All I can say is my treatment in this world made me strong but cold, bitter and apathetic. I was the only human I could trust, I and I alone. Here is the story of how I ended up in my version of hell, UA. Surrounded by, well you know, just about every single person I couldn't get far enough away from. And an overkill quirk just about everyone wanted a piece of. Yeah I was dealt some pretty shitty cards, now you'll see how I play them.Uploads depend on my schedule but I'll try weekly also error will be made cuz I dotn proof read, when I've finished I'll go over it 😅 The story follows Izuku but if there's a change in povs there will be a indication ⚠️ warning swearing and violence⚠️
