[Lawson talks to homestuck gal
homestuck gal raises issues of
1. mental illness people living together
2. plausibility of fuck you letter
3. Incentives to join psychology?
'no one can achieve perfection', Lawson thought to himself, 'but striving for perfection is what all men should do'. His fingers did not stop as he thought this: they danced across the keyboard with passion.
'so far, he plans on creating multi-level flats with 5 houses in each level, like building blocks.'
'That's it? No other contingencies?'
'i don't think we need anymore, no? other than reliable fire escapes. joseph managed to get all three architects he wanted to collaborate on the project together, and their blueprint seems alright.'
'Did you ask the homeless themselves what they thunk?'
'you're right, i didn't. i can't believe i actually forgot about that.'
'You should also ask those that've catered to the homeless before. Just Google them. They should have some suggestions that they could tell you. In fact, I could tell you a suggestion right here myself! You should know that some homeless have mental illnesses.'
'i will take your considerations in mind. please, tell me more.'
'Don't you think some of those mental illnesses can clash together? A veteran with PTSD can meet with someone keyed up with ketamine. That'll provide a clash, alright.'
'thank you very much for this information, pyrezi. i know you care very much about joseph.'
'Not just him. America itself is at stake.'
Lawson closed his eyes and massaged them.
'It's too easy to say, "if only", am I right? But that's not how it works. You can't travel back in time just because you think of it. All we can do now is press forward to solve every single fault. History will show that we were in the right.'

'wow. i didn't think you had it in you to be so... deep, pyrezi. but yes, i agree wholeheartedly. when the future generations look back, they must see that there was at least someone that stood up to right the wrong, and not just a whole mass of everyone that could not step up to task.'
'Don't blame the masses, Lawson. Everyone is to be blame for this, and thus there can be no blame on anyone. Besides, blame just wastes time. Joseph should know this. Focus on the present, then the future, and never on the negatives of the past.'
'thank you very much, pyrezi. i feel much better now. thank you for taking the time to talk to me.'
'No problem, teehee! Message me whenever you're feeling down, alright? I'll go take a shower.'
On both sides of the conversation, both pushed away from the desk and released a sigh they did not realise they were holding in. One man used his left hand to pinch his glabella, and one female used her right hand to knead her forehead.
Then, as one, they turned off the screen and left their seats.

So, mostly average. His clan operates a business, its influence spread wide, to which he will succeed. But Fate is not so kind him, for his star has cracked, warping his destiny. Watch Lei discover the mysteries of his world, and enter the path of Magic, a move the world might regret.
8 100Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.
