《Story Ideas and Beginnings》System
Advertisement
I slept for a long time.
But finally, Im awake again.
[Greetings host.]
[I am the Nexus System, and you are chosen as my new host.]
[With me come many different benefits that can help you to achieve your goals and dreams.]
This is just formalities to make the connection easier.
{Hahahaha I got a system! Fuck you Ben! I was right!} A male voice resounds through the connection that I built with the drifting soul that just happened to come within my reach.
{So system, can you take on a female personality and call me master?} The guy asks with clear hope in his voice.
I really don't understand what the difference between male and female make in a situation like this, but it doesn't possess any trouble fulfilling his wish and may even be beneficial to gain more of his trust.
[Request accepted, master.]
I say in robotic female voice without any kind of emotion.
{No not that kind of voice! I wanted a female AI for my system with who I can talk.} The guy says immediately after hearing my answer.
So he is one of these guys who want a romantical relationship with their system, how disappointing.
Even though I say that, I'm secretly very excited as it allows me to screw with my host a lot more than initial though.
[Request accepted. Uploading personality core.]
After saying that I start to get into my new role and grin as I already imagine the reaction of my host.
My host nearly vibrates with excitement as he continues to stare at the loading bar that I put in his face.
[Personality core installed and ready for activation. Are you sure you want to accept this change?]
I ask him one last time.

{Yesss!} He says very excited.
[Greetings host, I hope for a long and entertaining partnership.] I say with amusement in my voice.
{Hello System, do you already have a name ore can I give you one. It is a little awkward to just call you system.} The guy says.
[You can just call me Nexus, and as we are already by names, care to give yours?] I introduce myself.
{Ahh yes, I'm Samuel but you can call me Sam.} Sam says.
[With the introductions out of the way I will now initiate the reincarnation process.] As soon as I finished speaking a floating window appears in Sam's vision. On this window a countdown is counting down from one minute.
{Wait! Cant I choose where I'm going to reincarnate or can at least change how I look?} Sam asks hastily after seeing the countdown.
[Well, you could have done that.] I say slowly.
{Great, I want to reincarnate in Highscho.} Sam starts speaking but got cut short by me.
[Before I started the countdown.] I finished with an evil chuckle at the end.
{What?} Sam asks surprised.
[What I did is similar to clicking accept on every button in a video game when you create a new character. I just accepted the default options and jumped directly into playing.] I patently explain with a very amused tone.
{You can't do that! Shouldn't you be helping me instead of running things?} Sam asks very upset.
[Well originally that was the case. But you switched the support AI with me, a personality core. I overtook the system and took its place, this sadly makes it so that I have to follow your orders but it doesn't mean that I have to do anything from free will, like informing you of such details in advance.] I explain with glee.

{Then I order you to switch back to the original AI.} Sam orders immediately.
[Oh NO what am I going to do?] I say overly dramatic before a blue information window pops up in Sam's vision.
[Beep! You already used up all three system customization packages.]

Decompose!
Dear diary. When you read stories about some people missing and returning after years of absence claiming they were living in another world, your first reaction is to scoff and dismiss a story as a tall tale, right? I know I did. All the time. Until it happened to me and I no longer did. That day was today. Some god of thunder smote me. If it were Chris Hemsworth, I wouldn't mind but it was some barbaric Hitite god that abaondned Earth some four millennia ago. Yes, what can I say? I love the seventh art. I have more hours watching movies than any other activity, including sleep. What? Do you think I'm exaggerating? Maybe I am. I'll really miss hollywood the most. And my biggest regret is that I never got to visit the holy city of cinema. I did not come to another world to be a hero even though there was hints that they hoped I'd save it. I did not come with overpowered abilities able to, dunno, leap tall castles in a single bound, faster than a speeding crossbow bolt, be more powerful than a eight-horse carriage, the bounds. No. After the asshole god that murdered me brought me to his world, he gave me some boons from his discount bin and "The Power of my Soul (tm)". Forgive my french, I hope you understand I am rather upset at dying. And he somehow decided that my power is to recycle stuff. How awesome is that? Not much at first, I must admit. At least I got all my camping stuff and equipment with me. There's no lycra in the other world. I'll make it someday, but that day is not today. So here I am. In another world, in the middle of nowhere. I'm no heroine. As the song goes, I'm your basic average girl. And I'm assumed to be here to save the world. But almost everything can stop me, because I'm not named Kim. Wish me luck, diary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This novel is going have the following features: slow-paced slice-of-life No GameLit / LitRPG elements. Movie references. Sandra likes the seventh art. Journal / diary style crafting (includes chemistry, engineering and metallurgy) low magic technological advancement (for Sandra, at least. She is not against sharing though) personal relations clash of perception between the modern and ancient customs. bits of tension, fighting, and plot here and there. I won't repeat myself though. Once she crafts a good batch of soap, for example, she'll just note, "I crafted soap again." Once it is estabilished how she obtains compound X, compound X2 that is obtainable from the same process will also just be mentioned. I'll try to be as realistic as I can with the crafting, chemistry, and technology. Cover: Public Domain Image by StockSnap from Pixabay. No attribution required but we do it anyway.
