[10/21/21]
sorry for the lack of posts, I've had some writer's block :/
but anyway, back to the story!
-
"Are sure you're feeling okay?"
Y/n laughs softly at his concern. "I'm feeling fine, Wilbur, don't worry about me,"
"Okay, okay," Wilbur chuckles. "I'm just making sure,"
"Ready to go?"
"Yep,"
She joins the Minecraft server with the IP address that he had sent her. Simultaneously, Wilbur goes live on Twitch.
It's been a few days since her stomach flu. Now that she was feeling herself again, Wilbur had offered for her to play Minecraft with him on stream.
"Okay, I'm muted on stream right now," He says after a moment. "I'm gonna wait for everyone to join-"
"Wilbur I'm building a house!"
"What- Y/n t-the challenge hasn't started and you aren't even participating," Wilbur stammers a little. "I'm not even on the server- what are you doing over there?"
"Don't worry about it," Y/n giggles as she continues building a small house about 30 blocks above the ground. "Just start your stream, don't worry about me,"
"Hmmmm...okay," He says suspiciously. "I'm unmuting myself to do the intro,"
"Okie dokie, I'll wait for my perfect entrance,"
Wilbur talks to his chat for a few minutes. He reads out subscribers, donos, and overall just talking with the viewers in general.
"Alright guys so before I open up the server for you all to join, I'm gonna join to show you what you need to be prepared for,"
As he finishes, there's a message in the chat saying that he's joined the game. Y/n peeks out the front door of her sky house, which was just a simple wooden box with a door and windows.
"Hello...?" Wilbur asks tentatively after a small silence.
Y/n turns an echo effect on for her microphone before replying. "Wilburrrrrr!"
"Where are you?" His character looks around before spotting her sky house. "Oh- wait why are you up there?"

"Welcome to my home," She turns the echo off.
"Your house is going to get destroyed when everyone joins," Wilbur chuckles.
"I'm going to ban anyone who tries to destroy my house," Y/n responds darkly. "Anyway! Come inside!"
Wilbur's characters flies up and enters her house, which was just 4 wood walls with a door and a bed.
"This is...a house," He seemed to try and look for a compliment before settling on the obvious.
"Thank you. I'm very proud of it,"
"Okay- Can we start the challenge now?"
"Yep. Open up the gates!"
-
"Wilbur look they made a little shopping district!" Y/n chirps happily as she walks around the market the other players had made. "They're selling flowers and bread and stuff!"
"Are they selling happiness...?" Wilbur mutters in a monotone voice.
"Umm...no I don't think so," She replies as she secretly messages the player running the flower shop.
> You whisper to katkas29: can I sell flowers with you?
> katkas29 whispers to you: :0 yes!
Y/n smiles and, after crouching a few times to the other player, goes behind the counter in the shop with them.
Wilbur eventually goes into his own little world of streaming, mainly talking to himself and making comments about what was happening around him.
She stays quiet and contentedly sells flowers to people at the shop. A lot of people end up showing up since she was there, which makes her happy. Luckily PVP wasn't on yet so everything was going well.
"Y/n where are you?" Wilbur ends up asking after a while. "You're being awfully quiet,"
"I'm selling happiness with my new friends," She replies. "Come see!"
Soon after, his character lands in front of the flower shop.
"Aww you're selling flowers," Wilbur coos.
"Yep! Here have a sample," Y/n passes him a flower, which was literally named "happiness" thanks to an anvil. Her friend laughs when he reads it.

"Aw thank you," Wilbur then pauses for a moment. "Oh, Tommy's calling me,"
"Then add him to the call," She replies.
After a small pauses there's a ping in the background of the Discord call.
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?!" Tommy yells immediately.
"Selling flowers," Y/n tells him calmly.
"Hi Tommy," Wilbur chuckles.
"Are you guys on some weird date or something?" The boy continues suspiciously.
"No, we're doing that tomorrow,"
Y/n laughs at the comment as Tommy begins to yell angrily at Wilbur. He had gone full-on protective sibling-mode at the suggestion. The viewers are going crazy, mostly teasing Tommy and calling Wilbur a simp, but other people are spamming ship-related things in the chat.
Tommy joins the server as he's still arguing with Wilbur, where he immediately begins to cause chaos among the other players.
"Tommyyyyy stop ruining my stream!" Wilbur whines.
"Y/n where are you?" Tommy asks.
"I'm selling happiness," Y/n tells him cheerily. "Want some?"
"No. I only need women in my life,"
"You're going to be a very sad boy if the only thing you want in life is women, Tommy,"
"I'm not a boy! I'm a man!"
"Tiny baby child boy," Y/n teases him.
"You stink," Tommy retorts.
"At least I don't stink like teenage boy,"
"Hey!"
"Okay, okay ladies break it up," Wilbur is obviously stifling his laughter.
"No Wilbur, the chat wants us to fight," Y/n laughs. "Look, they're spamming it,"
"I'll fight you right now!" Tommy blurts out.
"Bet!"
"Yeah!"
"Oh no..." Wilbur mumbles.
Y/n teleports to Tommy. "Diamond gear, one gapple, let's go,"
"If I win you have to donate subs to me!" He challenges.
"And what do I get if I win?"
"If you win uh- I'll order food delivery for you,"
"HELL YEAH LET'S GO I GOTTA WIN THIS!" Y/n shouts.
"Y/n you're going to get a noise complaint-" Wilbur laughs after banging his desk a couple of times.
"Oh-" Y/n quickly slaps a hand over her mouth. "Oops-"
-
Later that evening, Y/n spins around in her swivel chair with a box of takeout food in her lap and Spotify playing softly in the background. It's already been about 10 minutes since Wilbur's stream ended.
Free food never tasted so good
Y/n smiles, even more so when she hears her phone ringing. But her hopes are hurt slightly when she realizes that it isn't Wilbur, it was Tommy.
"Que quieres?" (*what do you want?)
"What the f*ck does that mean?" He answers.
"It's Spanish,"
"Okay Quackity,"
"What do you want, child?" She asks him, continuing to spin in her chair with her phone on speaker.
"Are you and Wilbur actually dating?" For a moment Y/n assumes he's joking, but she quickly realizes that it's a genuine question.
"Uh- no we're not," She responds.
Tommy hums a little, obviously not believing her words.
"What?"
"The why do you guys flirt so much?" He goes on.
"Cause it's funny," Y/n is glad that he can't see her reddened face at the thought of flirting with Wilbur on stream.
"It's gross,"
"Awww are you jealous that I'm paying more attention to him?" She teases.
"I don't want my sibling-figures dating each other, it's weird," Tommy huffs.
"We aren't dating though,"
"You act like you are..." He mutters.
"Don't worry, Toms, you'll always be my favorite," Y/n laughs.
"I better be," Tommy responds. "Okay bye,"
"Bye-" By the time she says the word he's always hung up on her.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
