《Multiple people, multiple ways》Tomorrow (25)

"Kenny. We need to get going," Stan says.
Kenny groans.
"Already?" Kenny asks.
"Dad wants me home, we're going somewhere. I mean, you can stay, but we might not be here, when you wanna come. Plus, I'd really appreciate you coming," Stan says.
"We'll see on the sixth. Won't we?" Kyle tells Kenny, smiling.
Kyle's doing some kind of tricks with a coin while saying it, focused on the coin more than the actual things anyone is saying.
"Sure. Okay, let me go take a shit," Kenny says.
"Okay, I'll wait here. Come back, when you're ready," Stan says.
Kenny nods and leaves.
"Stan. Why did you want us tomorrow anyway?" Kyle asks.
Kyle has that knowing look that is as good as saying 'Fuck you, I know', although still focused on throwing and catching the coin.
"I wanna hang out?" Stan asks.
"Stan, we hang out every-fucking-day. Are you sure this isn't about something else? I swear, I will kill you, if you lie to me," Kyle says.
He's spinning the coin on one of his fingers, still looking at it.
"In your dreams, Ky," Stan says.
"Damn. You've seen my dreams, I guess," Kyle says.
I look at them both, rather shocked by the boldness, although Kyle is still too focused on the coin for this to look like a polite chat, where people face each other.
"I mean-," Stan starts.
"Let me finish, impolite little bitch," Kyle says, incredibly calmly.
Kyle keeps throwing the coin, this time with his other hand, which Kyle barely actually uses.
"Go on," Stan says.
"I was about to say I'm not the only one with dreams, and I know we share a couple," Kyle says.
"And what gives you that conclusion?" Stan asks, laughing slightly.

"You've said it, to my face. Although it was bound to slip up," Kyle says.
As if to look even cooler, Kyle finally faces Stan, while still playing with the coin.
"Do you know, what's fun about having 3 best friends with blue eyes?" Kyle asks.
"What?" I ask.
"They're the only ones I ever learned to read, blue eyes-," Kyle says.
Kyle stops doing tricks the moment the he gives a dramatic pause.
"Give away the most emotion. Unlike green eyes, which are really hard to read," Kyle says.
And he puts the coin on his table again.
"Wait. What?" I ask.
"Blue eyed people are easy to read, Leo. Sad, happy, angry, scared. Your pupils are also really easy to watch and see change. It's fun, really. Especially figuring out things nobody actually seems to point out," Kyle says.
"You just had to say something really cool," Stan says, with a sigh.
"I try," Kyle says.
There is maybe a minute of silence as Stan tries to find a way to ask, what he wants to ask.
Kenny comes in.
"Lets go, Stan," he says.
Stan looks between saying 'lets go' and 'wait a minute.'
"Yeah, you really should get going," Kyle says.
"Okay, stop being badass. It does not suit you," Stan says.
"I don't mind, I like being honest for ones in my miserable experience," Kyle says.
"That's a Stan line," Kenny says.
"No it's not," Kyle says.
Kenny nods.
"Well, Stan. Lets get going," Kenny says.
"Where are you even going?" I ask.
"Dad needs me to drive him and me... and Kenny, somewhere... because apparently 'he wants to see, if I can still drive.' Nope, I feel like he needs to go somewhere and went out for a drink, then remembered, just over the line, that he had to go somewhere and thought that since I can drive, he'd get away with being drunk," Stan says.
"Lets go then. Wouldn't want to make Randy wait," Kenny says.
"Yeah, probably. See you two tomorrow," Stan says.
Kyle waves, still smiling.

Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed The World
The world’s largest VRMMO, Conviction, was almost like a second world for humanity. It had integrated itself into the real world’s economy, with both corporations and individuals seeking their fortunes through the game. In this game, Nie Yan prided himself in his Level 180 Thief. He could barely be considered among the top experts in the game. Though, that was the only thing he could take pride in. He was penniless and unable to advance in life; a situation he was forced into by the enemy of his father. If it weren’t for the little money he made by selling off items in Conviction, he would’ve barely been able to eat. In the end, he chose to settle his matters once and for all. He assassinated his father’s enemy. He lay dying shortly after being shot in the pursuit. However, that wasn’t the end of his story. Instead, he awoke moments later to find that he had reincarnated into his past self. Armed with his experience and knowledge of future events, he sets out to live his life anew.

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
