"Sophie. Sophia. Sophie. Sophie. Sophia."
"What?!"
"I'm hungry."
I turn and give Fabion an annoyed look.
"You know where the kitchens are. Where's your brother?"
Fabion groans dramatically.
"He's on a date. He left me for a girl," Fabion groans.
"I'm starting to wish people would ask me on a date," I mumble. Anything to get away from Fab's awful whining.
"Are you kidding me?" Alice asks. I look over at her in confusion. "Every boy in school has a crush on you!"
"As if. I'm not Marlene," I scoff.
"She's not joking," Marlene mutters.
"Evan Rosier asked you on a date yesterday!" Lily exclaims. James chokes on his water.
"Is that what that was?" I ask. Evan came up to me and said 'Astronomy tower'. I honestly thought he was on drugs or something.
"Yeah. He invited you to the Astronomy tower," Alice says. James coughs harder.
"Huh. I think you guys are imagining things. See you later," I say, picking up my book and heading to the dorms.
"We should do Avengers trivia. Teams of two," Alice suggests, later that day when we're all in the common room.
"Yes!" I cheer. My family does this sometimes. I always win.
"Okay Lily and Marlene. Fabion and Peter. Alice and Sirius. James and Sophie. I'll keep score and ask the questions," Remus says. James makes a face but doesn't argue. I give Lily a questioning look and she shrugs. So she didn't tell him. Maybe Remus just noticed the weird looks.
"We'll starts easy. Here are your buzzers. Where is Stark Tower?" Remus asks. I slap the buzzer.
"New York," James and I say in unison. We're both die hard fans. Fight me.

"Correct. Which movies were Tom Holland in?" I slap the buzzer again.
"Captain America: Civil War, Spiderman: Homecoming and Avengers: Infinity War," James and I say.
Remus asks eighteen more question and James and I give up a few points. In the end, Fabion and Peter have one point, Sirius and Alice have three, Lily and Marlene have two, and James and I have twelve.
"James and Sophie win by a landslide," Remus says. James an I jump up and highfive each other.
"Yes! Reigning champs!" we exclaim.
"We've only played once," Sirius grumbles.
"You're just a sore loser," I tease. Sirius sticks his tongue out at me and I return the gesture. James laughs and we grin at each other before remembering our rivalry and glaring slightly. We sit on opposite ends of the couch and I sigh heavily in my mind.

Badass
At the end of everything, Taylor Hebert realized something. She didn't want to be a superhero. No, she wanted to be a badass. And then her prayers were answered. Imbued with the power of mimetic badassery and the ability to channel a different real-life badass every week, she set out in search for all the best things in life - well, according to Conan, at least. Modeling herself after Conan have been a mistake. Join her on her high-octane, pulp-fiction journey for vengeance, adventure, victory and mayhem. This isn't just uncensored. It's anti-censored! =========================== (Worm/Fate/Badass of the Week) Warning: crack-taken-seriously, over-the-top pulp-fiction style violence, overpowered protagonist, banned on two other sites. Hell, even the light-hearted omake jokes in this were considered too subversive to persist. ============================ AN: There’s this really, really excellent website called Badass of the Week. I’ve wasted many an hour browsing through, marveling at all the crazy shit some humans are capable of. Check it out, then come back and read this in a few days when the awesome starts to wear off. It’s worth it (all 576 entries). Back? Good! Anyways, I was looking through it recently while thinking about who I wanted to make expy’s of for my The Flying Dutchman quest ship captains (which now languishes in indefinite hiatus), and I had this idea. What if Taylor, wanting to be a badass, triggered with the power to be a different Badass every week? With a bit of Fate-style ability to draw on the tools associated with the legend (but to a just marginally less ridiculous degree), and a drive and aura to be and do badass? And thus, Badass was born in it’s somewhat cracky glory. Enjoy.
8 188The Sorcerer's Aria
Only ten years have passed since the last war. Now, war threatens to break again as both powers of Acolythis ready their forces. The stakes are higher than ever before because this time there will be no surrender. Sorcerers of this world use melodies and harmonies to create their powerful and deadly magic- Meaning the loudest score is often deemed the strongest. But when a child born of two nations finds that his score is too quite to master the harmonies and melodies that master sorcerers can, he must find a way to get creative or die trying. Especially when he is possibly the only one who knows the secret behind the entire war- and of those who will stop at nothing to keep the silence.

8 91The Break
What would you do if you knew humans were not the only Intelligent ones? What would you think if you knew humans had more potential and power than you thought? What would you aim for if you knew that all dimensions will merge and become one again? When you could have the power to not only protect yourself but to influence this changing world by the core, what would be your first goal? Laith Arslan never knew that he had to come across these questions. And it all started with one dream. A dream that changed his life completely.
