《Scratch Pad》Casino
Advertisement
So I am working in a casino. I feel like I’m in my 20’s. I have a car. I’m setting up lockable compartments for guests to store their valuables.
Camilla is coming back from a drop-off and she’s in my car. She’s arguing with me about who’s car it is. She has the same model and color. She’s wrong, it’s my car and she was in an accident with someone who didn’t have insurance. She drove it without my keys?!?
Angry, I go inside the banquette room to get some breakfast and perhaps earns some tips. The tables keep getting taken up with large groups, it some kind of holiday. I finally get a seat in the middle of this family. This granny hands me a bowl of oatmeal like grains and tells me to keep the chick warm. Not sure what she means, I stir around the grains and find a featherless baby owl. It’s way larger than the bowl and climbs out to rest on my chest. It bumps it’s beak to my nose and makes the little boy it belongs to cry because it likes me more than him. Now I need to figure out what to do with this owl.

The life of a teenage hellworlder
We've all heard of the trope that Earth is a deadly planet by galactic standard; and has thus honed humanity into a ruthless species bent on surviving at all costs. As it turns out, that trope is true. Sapient species that evolve on safe planets develop to be peaceful and compassionate - and the ones that do on dangerous ones become violent and selfish out of need - usually wiping themselves out. But obviously, not every violent species drives itself to extinction - resulting in them being feared and ostracized - including humans. The life of a teenage hellworlder is a sci-fi slice of life story that revolves mainly around Thomas, a sixteen-year-old New Britannian attending a Xeno high school, who befriends a lonely apex predator named Javqua. Getting written by two amateur teen writers, things may sometimes be inconsistent or be confusing - feel free to comment and point out these problems. Gore, profanity, and traumatizing content tags are only for minor events in the story and do not happen often. Chapters are around 1k - 2k words - pretty short, but that's because we're all busy with our own lives and school. Trust us - we would gladly upload 5k word chapters if we could. We tend to upload new chapters every Saturday or Sunday. Please consider supporting us on Patreon!
