Two days later
"Are you ready to go?" Landon asked putting my stuff inside the back of his truck. I was feeling way better now and I only had Landon to thank. But I was feeling a bit nervous about this.
Mom and Dad please protect me.
I nodded and got in.
Before he started the truck he paused.
"You sure you want to do this? You don't have to." I was interested now.
I couldn't back out.
"Yeah. I still want to go." I said he nodded and started the truck. Soon we were on the highway.
"So, tell me about yourself Evangeline."
"Well, I'm Evangeline Trevor, I'm 17 and I'm an orphan."
"Well damn. I mean go in depth. I want to know more about you."
"Why so you can fuck me?" I asked.
"Damn right." I rolled my eyes.
"I grew up in Baltimore, after high school I decided to come here to pursue my dream of being a big business owner, I was hoping the first year of college was going to be great bu-"
"You got me. Yeah yeah. My turn. I'm Landon Briggs, 19, child of successful high class people, I lived in Tennessee then moved here to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor."
A doctor? Interesting.
"Cool." I said opening a book.
"Why do you like books so much?"
"To be completely honest I don't really like books but, it's something I force myself to do."
"Wow. That's good to know." He said. I nodded going back into the book.
I read for thirty more minutes before I got bored.
"Twenty questions?" I asked he chuckled.
"I'm just saying. If I have to pretend to be your girlfriend I have to know you well enough to answer the questions your parents are going to ask me. Right?" I said coming up with an excuse. This is bullshit.

"Okay. I'll ask first. Birthday?" He asked.
"August twenty fifth. Yours?"
"March third. First kiss?"
That escalated quickly.
"Never had mine. Ideal date."
"I don't do dates sweetheart. But for your sake. How about fancy restaurant then dessert after if you know what I mean."
"You're unbelievable." I said. He chuckled.
"What about you Lina?"
"Um- maybe like. I don't know. The movies or something."
"Have you ever been on a date?" He asked glancing over at me.
"Nope." I said popping the 'p'
"Damn Lina. I'm gonna have to take you on one." He said. I rolled my eyes.
"Why do you call me Lina?" I asked.
"Because, I like it. It's quicker than saying your whole name. Plus it's cute, just like you."
"You're so weird."
"But you love it. Anyhow, let's see-oh, your ideal guy."
"What?"
"They guy you dream about, the guy that gives you chills, ya know? The one you want to marry and have three children with." You-wait what? No.
"I don't dream about guys. I dream about business."
"Have you ever had a boyfriend?" He asked.
"Of course not. I don't have time for that."
"Jeez. Either this is going to go perfectly or horribly wrong. I'm gonna have to teach you the ways girl, you need some love." I scoffed. He was being so dramatic.
"What about you? Your dream girl?" I asked curiously.
"Big ass and big tits." He said.
"Landon." I said warningly.
"Ugh, Fine. I want a girl who speaks her mind, someone with intellect and is able to form her own opinion. Looks are actually probably the last thing on my list. I want someone who's generous and kind ya know?" I hummed in approval. "And you Lina. You are my dream girl." My eyes widened.

"What?" I asked.
"You heard me, you're my dream girl."
"I must be dreaming." I said pinching myself.
"Look we're here. Mi casa de padres." I raised an eyebrow.
As soon as he stepped out the car some old lady was running out on the lawn.
"Landon! Oh Landon!" She yelled engulfing him in a hug. I got out the car and put my hands in my pockets.
"Oh and you must be Landon's girlfriend. I'm Susan." I nodded slowly.
"I'm Evangeline, very nice to meet you ma'am." I said holding out my hand she wrapped me in a hug.
"Landon doesn't stop talking about you. You guys are roommates too right?" I nodded. "Yep, he calls me all the time and talks about this Lina girl, who I'm assuming is you." She rambled, I sent a glare to Landon and he nervously rubbed the back of his neck.

Luck And Chronomancy
Time Magic is the best magic as everyone knows, although there are lots of unique Talents in the world. Most people only remember Haste because it is hard to get to higher Phases of Chronomancy. That is still enough to make the Talent iconic. A lucky enough Aleatory Talent can position you for greatness or leave you languishing in obscurity. The only true equality in the world is when that glowing message pops up at 8 years old. Even if it doesn't activate until you are an adult at 16 you still know. Sure you can find a new dungeon spawn and get another chance at a rare Talent, even this one, but you have to already be ready to delve into the *Far Wilds*, which is far easier with wealth or family power. This is the story of where my good fortune took me and the difference it made, even among a party of 7 others including an Arcanist. It is a journey of magic and monsters but also math, which some think is actually worse. Luckily I was born with Intelligence and Focus as my personal traits, and my parents were scholars. Of course Chronomancy can also be a frontline combat talent. Versitility well beyond other Elder Talents like Gravity, Abstraction, or Arcana. Might could have worked for me, too. I also met a runaway princess. All the best adventures have a princess. She hated being a noble and we didn't get married but it still counts. Besides she really filled out our front line. All that Leadership training came in handy. I still don't know where she's from. Who cares? How well Haste goes with giant hammers is what's important. I never learned much about anyone in the party, except the one I grew up with. I'm not a people person. I just wanted to optimize dungeon clearing time. *******Story Details******* No romance, politics, or traumatizing content, slice of life, or even dialogue. 1st person narration, like a guide/adventure log. 2000-7000 words a day, maybe 40-60% rpgish combat log with some reasoning on combat decisions, with the rest character Talent discussion and progression stuff. 8 person party with a decent variety in roles. Party members usually have 2 primary functions. Told from the support/control Chronomancer's perspective. Each party member will have 6 Basic/Background Traits, then 3 actual Talents with abilities. Capstone from their Educational Institution, Arbritrary as a gift from the temples, and Aleatory which is decided at birth, revealed at 8, and activated after adulthood at 16. Aleatory Traits ignore requirements and are random why is why they are so important. They'll gain new Talents from finding Dungeons to consume in the *Wilds*. Mature dungeons in cities can provide *Challenges* to raise the Phase of a Talent, up to 3 times from 1 to 4. Each character will get to roughly 8 non-Trait Talents. Attributes come exclusive from Talents, are required by Talents, and provide various effects as well. I designed about 220 Talents with abilities, 4 in each of 4 phases. "Traits" are just Attribute stuff. I'm not sure how many will be detailed in the story, more than 100 for sure. I used Talents because I want to be free of the legacy of tabletop. Half those rules are just because of the limitations inherent in a pre-computer ttrpg. This story mostly uses combat Talents, although like 1/3 of the 220 are for crafting and other society and economy stuff. If you really wanted to be a Thief you might take Intuition, Awarness, and Might for Basic Traits and Deftness, Manipulation, and Trickery for Family/Education. Then you'd pick Acrobatics, and Climbing for Educational Capstone and Arbitrary traits. You Aleatory Trait might be Shadow(Light/Dark) Magic, Umbramancy. A Bard might swap Dexterity for Charisma, Music for Acrobatics, and have gotten Illusion(Shadow/Sound(Air/Force)) for their Aleatory Trait.
