《You And I》ƇӇƛƤƬЄƦ 4: Dwight Blake Johnson

"t's iodine in potassium iodide, Sir" a famine voice said, upon calling Miss Clarkson.
The confidence aura was strong and the body language supported that.
That simple question repeated in my head as I meet her green orbs. Me being me, I slowly drank in her features. Her skin slightly olive, with her hazel hair made her eyes stand out even more. Her pointy nose and her sharp looks made her perfect, moving down to her body which was equal to a Goddess's.
Beautiful or maybe simply Gorgeous would have completed her compliments book, but she was more than that. The strength vibes she gave away were different.
And most importantly, she did not smiled, gave-me-intimidating-look or not even passed a smirk upon my looking, as most of the female population do. Infact, she raised her fine eyebrow at me.
I pushed myself out of the trance and found that I was in the middle of pulling up my tie knot until it sat perfectly on the collar. Slightly tugging down my vast-coat, I gave myself a final look in the full size mirror.
I was dressed in white tee shirt and corduroy deep blue pants, with a matching vast-coat and suite shoes to complete my appearance.
So ya, we have to attend this dinner for some lame purposes .
"You look too good" my elder sister Katherine said as she looked at me while leaning against the door frame of my room. She was dressed in a long, pink dress.
Meet my elder sister Katherine Piper Johnson not to mention the almost replica of my mother with my Mom's dark hair and features but got my Dad's grey eyes. Whereas for me, I inherited my Dad's light hair and my Mom's light eyes. She is the only sibling I have and only living body besides my Mom who supports my opinions.

"So I've been told" I said smiling to myself as I continued combing my hair.
"Ego bigger than your a*s, young brother" she rolled her eyes, but smiled nevertheless.
⚪✶⚪
"You look handsome as ever" Mrs. Jacobs complimented as she hugged me next after she was done with my sister.
"You look good yourself, Mrs. Jacobs" I said planting a kiss over her hand.
"Don't call me Mrs. Jacobs, it makes me an old granny. Call me Georgia" she said and I smiled with a soft nod.
"Hello, everyone" A low frequency voice broke through the atmosphere as I was following everyone into the dinning room.
I closed my eyes and sighed.
Catlin Jacobs, seventeen year old annoying human who happens to be my sister's, to-be sister in-law. Since my sister is engaged to her brother, Gorge Jacobs, her seaweed brain thinks I'll follow suit and marry her. She never lets a chance go by, to trip and fall all over me.
"How are you young lady?" My Mom hugged her with a smile.
"Good, good, how are you, Mrs. Johnson?"
⚪✶⚪
We were now seated around the dinning table. Mom and Mrs. Jacobs to one side into their ladies talk, my Dad and Mr. Jacobs to the the other engrossed in business catchup's. Katherine and George into their lovely-dovelies on one side. So ya, pretty much leaving me alone with the devil who seated next to me.
I pressed my fork into the chicken cube and brought to my lips.
"So how is High going, Dwight?" Carlin said as she excitedly looked at me.
"Good, how's yours?" I wanted nothing but to cut my conversation short with her.
"Nothing, plain boring that you won't like... So tell me, how's your soccer practices?" She said this time drawing her chair closer to mine and instantly I felt her palm resting on my thigh under the table.

I looked around the table, to meet someone's eyes which perhaps will save me here...
But unluckily everyone was too enthralled into their activities.
"They are going fine" I said tightly, while pushing her hand off my thigh.
"Good" She said not even remotely embarrassed of her act.
But the next question did fly out of her mouth as a whisper, shamelessly "Any girlfriend yet?"
I stopped eating and looked her way to find her dead close to me. Not giving away any chances, I shot out of my seat "Excuse me" I said wiping my mouth with the napkin.
"Dear, is everything alright?" My Mom enquires as she looked my way with concern.
"Umm, is the food bad?" Mrs. Jacobs asked next with wide eyes.
"Nothing really, I just need some fresh air" I said and walked towards the exit door.
I stepped outside and inhaled air, as if my body needed it, as if it would have suffocated itself to death if I didn't.
To my cursed luck, I heard the clicking sound right the next moment. I sighed and closed my eyes.
"Why don't you just leave me alone?" I hissed, yet my back still facing her.
"What do you mean?" She asked with concern laced voice.
"Why did you follow me, out here?" I said this time turning around to look at her.
"Why not?" She said and walked straight towards me. Her hazel eyes shining with excitement.
"Go in, Catlin" I said as I stepped away from her.
"But I wanted sometime alone with you" she pulled out her most intimidating voice on me. She stepped closer yet and ran a finger down my chest.
"I don't" I said catching hold of her wrist, stopping the little journey of her finger.
"I like you, Dwight" she said out next which startled me.
"I'm sorry but I don't share the mutual feeling. Besides, shouldn't you tell these three letters to your boyfriend?" I said and she narrowed her eyes on the mentioning of her "boyfriend".
"I.... Uh.... I don't like him, the way I do to you. I broke-up with him anyway" she said gritting her teeth.
"Well then, I am sorry. I can't play a game of patching-up with you" with that I walked back into the house, caring less of her follow.

8 1140RE: Monarch
Cairn is a prince who is already tired of ruling. Faced with an imminent coronation and an overbearing father, he wants nothing more than to drown his responsibilities in cheap liquor and poor decisions. With the help of his sister, he hatches a plan to escape the clutches of the throne once and for all. It all goes terribly wrong, and Cairn finds his priorities shifting in the face of unimaginable tragedy. The change of heart comes too late, however, and Cairn dies. He reawakens to find himself transported ten years in the past. He immediately begins to plan for the future, only to discover his killer has somehow followed him. To succeed, Cairn must unite the kingdom and discover the motivation of his killer, using as many tries as it takes. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I exhausted pretty much every time loop story ever written and decided to write my own. You'll see a few similarities here between this story and some existing stories, at least initially. There's a lot of inspiration drawn from both MoL and Re:Zero, though in terms of pathos and darkness, this story leans more towards the latter. Be warned, it is something of a slow burn. The main character will grow and become powerful, but a theme of this story is that power comes slowly and often at great cost.

8 258Souls of Savagery
Souls of Savagery is a series of short stories intended to function much like a comic book series. However, to experience the complete story in a logical order you should read the volumes in numerical order, starting of course, with Volume 1: A Bloodbath by Any Other Name. Each volume is told from a single point of view and that will change from volume to volume. Though, the narrative will require later volumes to return to characters that have been featured previously. I hope you enjoy.

8 122Death Galaxy
When portals opened across the world and space, people were a bit terrified. Naturally, some people called it the end times or some other negative interpretation. Thankfully, the new arrivals managed to calm the masses, saying they were here from across dimensions in search of peaceful refuge. After some discussion and promise from the reality hopers to not break the world, they were allowed asylum. And so, began a technological revolution as the new cohabitants, who looked distinctly human if a bit off, openly shared some of their knowledge with us.

Naturally, with the New Humans keeping some of the more dangerous techs to themselves and Old Humans being a greedy bunch, tensions are arising as old and new grudges rear their ugly heads. The world endlessly spins as history, both good and bad, is seemingly on its way to repeating itself. Only with other planets, and potentially other universes, being the backdrop this time. But that was big stuff that Alex had no real interest in. They only care about one thing and one thing. TDAG. Trans-Dimensional Adventure Games. Best VR system ever made. Alex, instead of focusing on political and multiverse shenanigans, had their eyes set on VR games. Specifically, one of the new and up and coming potential best games of all times. Death Galaxy
