《Don't Drink The Gene Juice》13
Advertisement
"Jenna, we're really happy to hear all this," Mom said later that night. "I'm glad that you feel so confident about this."
Jenna beamed with delight. She felt so full of relief.
"I knew she'd love being a mermaid!" Lily said, "I totally called it. She's been obsessed with the ocean her whole life. She like an inverse little mermaid."
Jenna giggled. "That gene juice was bad, but it definitely was better than a sea witch."
Dad got up from the couch, and walked over to a little cabinet in the desk in the other room.
"I think," he said, "that now might be a good time to let you know about something."
He came back into the living room with his tablet, which he pulled up to an official looking document.
Dad put it into Jenna's hands. It had a DeNeticA watermark on it.
"Dear Mr. Jones...," she began to read.
It was a long, very legal document. It looked very calculated to sound as nice, but safe, as possible. They expressed, through Dad, how distressed they were to learn that Jenna's order had been accidentally mixed up with, as they'd thought, a transgender girl who was going to celebrate her transition.
Putting a worry of hers to rest, thankfully, the physical orders hadn't literally been switched. The girl hadn't become a wolf. Jenna's had just accidentally become a duplicate of the girl's order.
The legal language went on, transitioning from saying they were sorry to covering their a**. But then Jenna saw what the a** covering was.
"...We are prepared to offer your daughter... A FULL RIDE SCHOLARSHIP TO THE UNIVERSITY OF HER CHOICE!"
She squealed out that last part, than smirked shrinking back a little as she saw her family covering their ears.
"Yes," Dad said with a smug look, "I threatened to sue. They gave in way more than I thought they would though."
Jenna tossed the tablet to an empty couch cushion, jumping up and hugging Dad.
"Oh thank you so much Daddy! Oh thank you thank you thank you!"
Dad laughed. "You really have changed a lot, haven't you?"
"For the better," Jenna grinned, "for the better."

The Devil's own sins
Writer updates available for free on patreon. The following account, dear reader, is a recollection and retelling of the story of the first imp. The last devil born from the original primordial pit at the dawn of time, and the lowliest speck of that first generation. It recounts the tale of Thozronnath the pitiful and his steady rise from obscurity, perpetually stuck as a punching bag for his betters until the day hell itself spat him out. The information presented here is pieced together from eye-witness reports and second hand hearsay, sometimes from creatures with more than two hands. I can not tell you with any degree of accuracy how much of it is true as it begins long before our time and it's true ending lies far unto the future still. I can tell you one thing though, it was confusing as hell. Cover: Illustration for John Milton's Paradise Lost by Gustave Doré (1866), a thankfully public domain image. Currently on hiatus.

To Burn a Kingdom
It has been centuries since Gods and Angels forsook the world of Ashaari, leaving its people Faithless and divided as Magic begins to fade. But some of their powers still remain, embedded deep in the earth as rare Gems and sometimes, in blood. Wars are waged and fought over these Gems, for what little Magic they provide. But now, a new prophecy has arisen. The Angels will return and with them, comes Magic and hysteria. - In the kingdom of Illya, Princess Arellia Virtris lives a life of opulence but she is miserable; a caged puppet whose strings are controlled by the members of her court. She yearns for the freedom she may never have but is bound by the prophecy to serve her kingdom and the Faith. But when her brother—the crown prince Vasilis— suddenly arranges an unfavourable marriage, her life begins to spiral out of her control. On the other side of the continent, mercenary Dillon Azshker jumps thoughtlessly from battle to battle. He lives only for the coin he earns and booze to drown the sorrows of his past. Life has left him dispirited save for one last reckless campaign that he hopes would end it all. As fate— or perhaps, bad luck—would have it, on the night of summer solstice, the lives of these two unfortunate souls are intertwined as they find themselves caught in the dark webs of politics and sinister schemes. When they meet and tragedies unfold, their decisions will ultimately trigger a series of events that will alter the course of history. *** Warning: This novel is grimdark and will contain descriptions that some readers may find disturbing.

Brightburn - A LITRPG apocalypse

Well, that wasn't true, he had imagined something close to that scenario many times, but when it comes true? Well, it wasn't quite as he imagined, there was a lot more pain involved, and a surprising degree of waiting and walking, not to mention the friends, new and old, lost along the way. But even so, Oliver still hopes it can be fun, and even if it isn't, it will certainly be the adventure of a life time.
