Love
-An emotion everyone wants to experience.
Hell, who doesn’t? Unless you're some lone wolf kinda person, love is something every person looks forward to with crazed puppy eyes.
It can come in many different shapes and forms, whether it be normal feelings for someone you genuinely grow feelings for, or an easily mistaken spar of the moment lust..
Love also varies on whether people will always enjoy the experiences brought by it, or if they end up getting hurt in the end no matter what..
It can be one of the most lighthearted, wholesome times of your life, or it can be a very painful time, one you dread every second of hoping dear god, when will this finally be over with…
But at the end of the day, humans always crave love. Whether it be from a partner we hold dear, a family member, a friend, or from somebody you can’t have-everybody yearns to be wanted.
Some may have their lucky person with them, sharing their emotions with each other every night, and wishing luck to each other for yet again a week without snags..
And while others may not be so luck or ballsy, they still might have a family member or friend-someone-out there who loves and cares about you.
So, with all there love there in front of you, question yourself how long are they going to be here?
What if I leave for a long time?
What if something happens and I can’t see them for a while?
What if something happens and I can’t ever see them again?
The answer’s dumbly simple when you think about it: Stop thinking about it, and live your life with them.
Tell them how you feel, how much they mean to you. Even if it’s just a small thank you, it can go to show how much they mean to you, because you just might never get the chance again if you don’t.

Show them, express to them, that they mean the world to you. Little hugs, or taking them out-it can go to show how much said person means to you.
Because if you miss your chance, and you can never get the chance to tell them again…
“Sir, his heartbeat is slowing, and his nerves are responding less and less, what should we do?!”
...it’ll be like you died inside yourself.
“Inject him with this, and give him a defib! Pronto!”
The emotional weight will be heavy, forever lifting on your shoulders. Thoughts will storm your mind with: I should have, I could have, why didn’t I? If I could have just…
“Ready...Now!”
It hurts, it really hurts. My face, my arms, my legs, my body. There’s pain everywhere…
“Didn’t work. Again!”
Please, stop...I don’t want to feel this pain anymore…
Darkness. Pure darkness enveloped Effryns mind as the sound of fading rushing and beeps, along with an intense feeling of pain were his only two senses he could notice.
He felt a small sting, but it faded away shortly after.
“Again!”
Don’t...just let me…
Another sting, but this time…
“Hurrah! Good job fellas, he’s got a weakened pulse, but still alive!”
Sounds of cheers filled his mind around him. Each one sounded happy, as if they had accomplished something they were proud of.
But Effryn didn’t feel that. The opposite, actually.
His mind began to go completely blank, further fading away from the reality of the world.
He felt himself dying, almost as if he were mere seconds away.
But his ‘saviors’ had dragged him back, forcing him to stay in this pain filled world, without the person he cherished the most. The person he spent everyday with, no matter how long or boring, was gone now. She’ll never come back. Evvryn was dead.

The drugs they must have injected him with were working, and with great speed. He knew in a matter of seconds he would sleep, only to awake in some hospital.
He grasped onto the memories of Evvryn’s last moments of life, reliving them like a tape being forced to be played over and over again. Until…
...you should have just let me die…
...he fell asleep, knowing the place he’d wake to, was a world without Evvryn.

Advent of the Mindfire Mage: A Challenger's Return Story
Updates MWF, 6PM EST! Not so long ago, a story was posted on Webnovel, one that fired my imagination unlike almost anything before or since. It was known as The Challenger's Return: Rebirth of the Rainbow Mage. However, 150 chapters in, the author NightWind, who I'd personally interacted with and begun to consider a true friend, vanished from the internet without a trace. And so, I have acted upon my fervent desire to pick up his torch, to refuse to let his world that stirred such passion in me die. Read below about my own take on The Challenger's Return. Was Lheticus summoned to the Tower by chance, or by choice? Either way, with the new power he wins, he won't hesitate to burn anyone who seeks to keep him from his true love to cinders, and with a unique ability of the highest potential, he may just succeed, but he's just as likely to burn himself down. And as it turns out, the latter case may be woven into his very destiny...can that destiny be changed? And if it is, what will be the repercussions for the Tower? (You may want to read a fair amount of the original Challenger's Return before starting this, as, particularly in the early chapters, many things that are laid out in it are glossed over in this story.)
