"PETER, WE'RE HOME" May shouted as we walked into the apartment. "Here, make yourself at home. I'll take your bags into Peters room as you two will be sharing" she said picking up my bags. Just as she started walking, Peter walked in. "I thought you were home?" May questioned him. "Sorry, I was doing revision at Neds" he replied. "Okay, tell me next time. This is..." but he cuts her off. "Y/n. I know" he said dryly. "Well as seen as you know each other, be a darling and show y/n where she will be sleeping and I'll get dinner ready" May grinned while passing him my bags. He smiled. "Follow me".
He had a bunk bed, a desk and a chair. That was it. "Which do you want?" He asked. I gave him a confused look. "Do you want to sleep on the top or bottom bunk?" He asked again. "Oh um...whichever you don't sleep on" I replied. "Well I sleep on the bottom but I don't mind moving to the top if you want the bottom" he said. "Um no, top is fine. Listen Peter, I've been meaning to speak to you" I said. He sat on the bed and looked at me. "Okay...". "I wanted to apologise for today. It was rude of me and ungrateful. I am thankful that your aunt and you are letting me stay. I guess I am terrified of what is going to happen to Dad" I quietly said. He got up and walked over to me. "It's okay. I'm use to it. I understand that you're terrified" he responded. I looked at him. "Friends?". "Friends". We smiled. Suddenly, I started sniffing the air. "Um Peter, what's that smell?". "Ah, that's May's cooking. I hope you're not too hungry" he laughed. I giggled. "GUY'S! IS TAKEAWAY OKAY?" We beard May shout. We burst out laughing. "YEAH" we both shouted back.

"How was school today?" May asked us. We were eating Chinese food. "Same old" Peter replied. "Agreed" I added. "Do you mind if I go to bed? I'm not feeling too good" Peter said putting his knife and fork down. "Of course not. Take some pills and drink plenty" May said. "Thanks Aunt May. Night". "Night".
It was a couple hours later and May and I were watching TV. "Your Dad will be okay you know" she suddenly said. "I know". I had to stay positive. "Is it okay if I go to bed?" I asked. "Darling, you don't need to ask. This is your home now too so you can do whatever you like" May smiled. "Thank you". I got up and hugged her. "Night". I walked into Peters room and saw that he wasn't there. "He must be in the bathroom" I muttered to myself. I quickly got changed and got into bed. I feel asleep instantly.
I was awoken by the window opening. I carefully looked over and saw someone climbing in. "Shit I'm going to die" I thought. I stayed as still as possible and watched the figure. Suddenly I saw them climbing on the ceiling. It suddenly came to me that it was Spider-Man. But what could he be doing in Peter's room? Spider-Man got down off the ceiling and took his mask off. I sat up slowly and then he turned around. My eyes went wide. "HOLY FUCK" I shouted.

Sweet Minds
"No one can see it, some can feel it, and only the few can use it. We belong to the few." Marith Merryfield felt anything but merry that morning. She found herself waiting for a delayed train on a deserted platform, in the freezing cold of the Dutch autumn. Just when the strangeness is making her consider turning around and going back home an empty train rolls into the station. For reasons unclear to this day she decides to get onboard. An unlikely, and quite impossible, train accident is about to hurtle her into a world she had always suspected existed. It was a dark and absurd place she had rejected and suppressed when she was young. Now she would need that dormant part of herself to survive. After a brief hospitalization she must choose between two continents and finds herself reluctantly boarding a plane to Oregon to be reunited with her shadows. She returns to the town she grew up in, which is where her father still lives and her childhood memories linger. By the end of the week the mysterious train accident turns out to be the least of her problems. Her life was never supposed to become this serious this fast. Through an improbable and unfortunate series of events she is soon introduced to a motley crew of characters that appear to be carrying the same struggles through life. They possess a familiar sense of inadequacy and insecurity. Marith realizes that for the first time in her life she has found herself a tribe, or, as they prefer to call it, a Chain. She is introduced to a world of Prophets, Runners and Mages led by an Oracle and a Watchmaker. Over the course of several weeks Marith learns that, together with her Chain, she is expected to save this fabric of reality, by fighting a mysterious and immortal creature and his aggressive pet. In order to have a chance at overcoming this force of nature she has to revisit the darkest and most desolate corners of her mind. ***** The total word count of the first 12 chapters amounts to about 85.000 words. The total word count of the first 30 chapters will amount to about 225.000 words. My chapters range, roughly, from 5.000 to 10.000 words. I post with irregular intervals, on random days and at different times. I hope you will enjoy the story! English is not my first language and I am very much open to constructive criticism. Disclaimer: I regularly use impressionistic or abstract language on purpuse, when I think it might benefit the story.

A Hero Among Monsters
A worker goblin in service of a Dread Lord wasn't expected to do much more than maintain the sprawling, underground Machines Works. Although he imagined doing more, Tad had long accepted that he'd likely end up an old man like his boss, Glum, happily toiling among the gears and cranks. When an enigmatic orc named Hohza suddenly recruits the pair of goblins into his War Party, their duties to the Dread Lord Withering Sorrows switch to battling dwarves, sprites, and elves. If Tad survives, he may get to experience a world wider than he'd ever dreamed ... which may be too much for everyone else! New chapters are posted weekly on Thursday mornings.
