Prologue
My name is Jack. I am 15 years old. I am an orphan. I grew up with a bunch of monks on a mountain, but I left due to clashing ideals. I am currently in class during brake period, and as always, I am sitting in the back of the class all alone with nothing but my hobby to keep me company, observing people. I watch my class mates talk endlessly about stuff, like how great their date went last night, the new show that aired over the weekend, or what their plans are for the break.
skill obtained
'What the fuck.'
reward for being the first person to obtain a skill calculating.... Title obtained (skill whore)
"..."
"..."
"WHAT THE FUCK."
Everyone looks at me.
'Oh shit I said that out loud.'
"..."
"..."
"Excuse me."
I get up and go to the bathroom to get away from my class.
As I get up, I notice that everyone has a name and a 1 floating over their head.
'Odd'
When I get to the bathroom I see my own name and a 1 in the mirror.
'The 1 must mean level 1. Hmmm'
''
As I scream that one word in my head, a blue window pops up in the same way the previous two did.

After I close all the windows I start heading back to class.
'That was...odd'
When I get back to class everyone was back to talking amongst themselves again.
*ding-don*
That was the sound that break time was over and it was to move on our next subject, PE.
As we were heading to the changing room another announcement appeared in front of me and, by the way everyone reacted, the entire class.
You will now be transferred to the inside of a dungeon at random locations in 5:00
"What the hell!" (Unanimous)

Leslie's Poems
This is a continuous collection of poems that I've written in chronological order, starting with the oldest and ending with the newest. This will be updated periodically and may have mass updates. More often than not, each poem either will be written in free verse or with zero adherence to traditional poem structure. Some poems may imply situations and actions that can be triggering or annoying, especially the earlier poems. I recommend skipping most of the ones from 2018-2019, or just not reading this at all if you feel it may hurt you. Please enjoy and read at your own discretion.
