《Amusement Park》Season II: Chapter Ten - Goodbye
Advertisement
They told me to be myself. Everyone told me to be myself. Yet, that was the problem. I refused to be like everyone around me, and now I'm disqualified from the eyes of many to be acceptable.
Maybe that was too dramatic, but it sounded like it got through the point.
I can't blame my parents for they taught me that the world is a very competitive place. Where the best will bloom and the losers will have to settle at some cheap supermarket for their entire life. But they ended up backtracking from that. They backtracked and now are telling me all the lies I should've known as if they're truths. What kind of world do you live in? You're telling me I can be anything! Why can't I be successful? Why can't I find the job I studied for? You said I'll find a beautiful wife! I found a hoe. A fucking hoe who left me riding on someone else's cock. You said you were proud of me, but I know what you were talking about when the door was closed. How I turned into a fucking loser. And you're saying in one moment how you don't know where it went wrong and the next you're saying it's not a surprise! Which one is it? Did I become a loser or was I born one? And worst of all, nobody is going to care. I'm doing what I can to get away from this shit. I don't have it in me anymore. I was betrayed, I was used, I was thrown away like a used condom. I'm nothing. And I don't matter.
You don't care. None of you do! Look at you. You didn't care. None of you did. Nobody did. I was just another pair of lungs wasting air. I tried to not end up like this. I tried to not only make myself happy but other people too. And what happened was the homeless guy getting angry for not giving him his dollar he expected after I got laid off. And what happened was the woman I married leaving me for someone better. And what happened was Mary from the front desk "borrowing" $300 from me two and a half years ago.

But did you really care? You're like the rest of them. You're saying that I'm what's wrong. I just wanted a little something back. Maybe some appreciation. Not a single piece of gum. I didn't even like that brand. It loses its taste after five seconds. I bet they carry that brand just to belittle me. They know it loses its taste as quickly as I disappoint those around me. Because what? I said no. I said no ONE FUCKING TIME and now it's thanks to me that their life is ruined. They can't even look at me. How am I supposed to get by? Let everyone step on me like a rug? I don't think anyone will have me around because I tie the room together. I'm an eyesore, as though the mere sight of me will cause distress.
Nobody understands me and nobody wants to. I tried. I really tried. This is goodbye.

Silhouette
WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.

[French] Le chat de Schrödinger - An Ephyria Story
Une fille, ayant vécu l'enfer par deux fois, est devenue un paradoxe. Morte, mais vivante. Présente mais absente. Son existence même est remise en cause par le monde lui-même. 1 chap / semaine (le dimanche) au mieux. Je suis étudiant, donc il est possible qu'il n'y est pas de chapitre durant certaines semaines, bien que j'essayerais de faire des chapitres, même s'ils sont courts (peut-être un chapitre extra ?) Au sujet de la fiction, il y aura peut-être un harem, mais que des femmes ! Pourquoi ? Pourquoi pas. Je ne me sens juste pas à l'aise d'écrire sur un homme faisant l'amour à mon personnage. Et oui, il y aura des citrons, mais pas de suite. Aussi, le texte sera très cru. Si jamais, pour une quelconque raison, un des personnages voit un pénis, j'écrirais clairement que c'est un pénis. De même pour la femme.
