"I won!"
"Nope. I won!"
"Yeah right!" We'd been going at it for ten minutes already. I didn't care, it was just fun to get Harry wiled up!
"Your Hogwarts letters came this morning!" Mum came from the kitchen with a large quantity of food floating behind her. "I looked at Fred and Ron's so I'd have an idea of what we need!"
"And?" I asked, feeling anxious. I had my own bank account that was stocked, but the Weasley's just managed each year, and it bothers me that they won't let me help.
"We'll manage dear!" She gave me a small smile, and since there were others here, I let the subject drop. Harry gave me a look which I waved off, knowing Ron would tell him later. "What do you think about leaving tomorrow?" We all nodded our heads in response because we were busying shoveling food in our mouths. Chicken makes you hungry! "Good! Now hurry up and we'll have dessert!"
"No thanks Mrs. Weasley, got to watch our figure! But thank you!" Angelina sent George a wink as she and Katie stood up, Katie sent Fred one as well, but ended up disappointed because he was watching Natalyn. They left the kitchen leaving the rest of us just sitting there. If your worried about your figure, you my friend, are in the wrong household!
"What about you six?" She turned to the gang and I with a smile. Only after shaking her head at Angelina and Katie of course. Around here, refusing Mum's food is an insult! I have a feeling she doesn't like them much. George hopped up to follow them, but Fred stayed put. He took glances at Natty out of the corner of his eye every few seconds. We all nodded our heads and she went to get it.
"Thanks Mum!" Everyone nodded their heads in agreement before eating their ice cream. She watched us for a minute then started again.

"Since you all slept together last night anyway, I was wondering if you'd like to camp out back? Bill and Charlie are willing to put up a tent big enough for all of you!" There was an uproar in the kitchen. Everyone was really excited for tonight. We all nodded and shouted yes back and forth.
"Can I come?" Fred asked, looking at us with a big grin.
"Why?" Ron asked, Ginny, Ron, and I looked at him through narrowed eyes. Natalyn looked happy and Hermione looked confused.
He shrugged. "Sounds fun!" He threw a smirk our way and held his hands up in an, 'I'm innocent' way. "No tricks or jokes, promise!" I looked at Ron who nodded.
"Okay! I guess. Lets go!" We rushed outside, watching Bill and Charlie set up the tent. "Wait! We have to go change!" I looked down at my apparel. The shirt was fine with me, but the swimsuit was not comfortable.
"Oh crap! Lets go!" Natalyn and Ginny grabbed my hand, I stopped and waited for Mione to jump on my back. We all ran towards the house yelling and hollering, skipping and jumping, and just generally being dorks.
"Why do we get the weird ones?" Ron's voice travelled over the yard and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Heard that!" And we skipped into the house, leaving him to think about that. He really should learn how to whisper better! The girls hopped off towards the stairs, but I decided to go comb my hair and brush my teeth. I skipped off towards the bathroom, but when I got there, I heard a noise like a dying cat, so naturally, I threw the door open.
"Oh my gosh! Sorry!" George had Angelina pushed against the wall, his hands had pushed her shirt up slightly and were on her hips, her legs wrapped around his waist. They were in the middle of a deep snog when I walked in. They broke apart and walked out with out a word, George flicked my ear on his way, looking grumpy.

"Ew!" I shuddered, closing the door behind me and them. I never want to see that again! Shaking it off, I looked at my appearance in the mirror. Not bad! Just need to run the brush threw my hair an brush my teeth from dinner. I ran my hair under the bathe water to rinse out anything from the pond. I brushed it out and made sure it dried nice and shiny. I then brushed my teeth and spritzed some of Mum's perfume. Making sure it was light.
I left the bathroom and headed upstairs, where all the girls were waiting, already dressed. I made them close their eyes and peeled off my bathing suit. "You'll never guess what I just saw in the bathroom!"
"A toilet?" What an original response Natty!
"What?"
"Let me guess, George and Angelina?" Ginny's answer shocked me, how'd she know?
"Um, yeah! He had her pressed against the wall and they were snogging! How'd you know?"
"I saw them come out," she shrugged, keeping her hands over her eyes. I pulled on my shorts and put Harry's t-shirt back on.
"Done!" They all uncovered theirs eyes and looked at me with smug smiles. "What?"
"Harry's t-shirt still? Not gonna change?" Hermione smirked at me, Ginny raised an eyebrow, but Natalyn looked worried. I frowned, wondering what was wrong. Plus I was annoyed. There's nothing wrong with wearing his t-shirt! It's a shirt for crying out loud!
"It's comfortable! Natty what's wrong?" Her head snapped up to look at me. Her eyes were confused, worried, and anxious.
"Your sure it was George?" I rolled my eyes, confused by the question. Because I haven't lived with them for eleven years! And Fred isn't waiting in the tent with Harry and Ron outside. What would make me think it was George?
"Positive. Why?" Her face paled except for the small blush that flooded her cheeks. Hm, I have a feeling she was worried it was Fred. Which means she fancies my brother! Ew! Another one bites the dust! Mione already fancies Ronald!
"No reason!" Her eyes flashed, meaning she was lying, but I'll let it slide. For now. The sentence stopped my train of thought, pulling me into reality.
"Okaaaayyyy?" I dragged out the end of the word. "Lets go! The boys are waiting!" I grabbed two random hands and ran downstairs and out onto the lawn. In the hall, Ginny had to open her mouth.
"You mean Harry's waiting!" She giggled, followed by Mione and Natalyn.
"Don't forget! It's HER Harry!" Natalyn smirked. Mione laughed again.
"The way she talks in her sleep you'd think they were married!" Hermione sniggered. I glared at all of them.
" I don't talk in my sleep! Now shut up! We're back!" I called the last part out loud. The three boys turned to look at us with smiles on their faces.
"Hey!" I stood by Harry as they put the finishing touches on the tent. He eyed his shirt and raised his eyebrow with a smile. I looked down, feeling the blush rise to my cheeks.
"It was really comfy. I hope you don't mind?"
"Not at all!" I looked back up at him with a smile.
"Done!" Bill stepped out of the tent and smiled at all of us. Harry grabbed my hand and dragged me inside. This should be fun!

The Trespasser
Synopsis Following his di—instincts, David finds himself in a weird situation; the next thing he knows, he's in a different world, dying, and manhandled by a big-ass alien. When the Source comes to his aid, granting him the access that—like every other sapient—he's due, David barely manages to get out of the fight with his life intact, but is that enough? Of course it isn't. The very Source giving him powers is also poisoning him to death. Oh, there she is, the petite female alien. Will that be enough to save him? Of course it won't. If he wants to be saved, he has first to save himself. The only way to do so is by getting to know the world around him, but even before that... Why the bloody hell did I have to be called Deviant!? *** Blurb? Blurb. The Trespasser starts slowly, I believe I've written a decent world, and I want you to find out what it's all about, won't just throw it in your face because of *levels*. I do not like stories that don't make sense. David is not a murderhobo, he respects life and answers to the world and the weird situations thrown at him with irony and sarcasm; so you are looking for easy killing streaks, you will not find them here. So, a man finds himself into the wild? It's a different world, and yet he can breathe its air? Finds himself in a lucky-low-level zone? Oh, look at that, people speak English—how likely is that? So, nope, not for me, gentleman. You won't find anything of the likes here. Again, a man finds himself in a new world but only thinks about the system? Yeah, that's not exactly how it works. David will try to find out what it's really all about, what the aliens want, how they work, why is that Fay really helping him? You can kill somebody to get levels, and yet there is not even a form of police? Not gonna happen here. Man becomes suddenly overpowered in a world where people can live for thousands of years by having enough luck to face only lower-level people? Hahaha—nope. Lastly...Spaceships and fantasy with LitRPG... say what!? Well, what's wrong with that? Let's make it happen, shall we? *** You want even more info? Really? Alright... David will start from the very bottom of the food chain, so there will be a settling arc—it's inevitable. David will find true companions, with personalities and backstories, and they will have a life of their own. There will be enemies, and those enemies will have a life of their own, too; there will be no evil just because. The world-building will have true depth; it will not exist just because the protagonist visits it. There will be both Fantasy and (Soft) Sci-fi—yeah, you heard that right. There will be rationality to every action taken, as long as the characters are aware of what is going on. There will be a godly system. You will come to read because of the world-building, but you will stay for the characters. The dead stay dead, and you will weep for them. There will be no action without a reaction. Lastly, there will be laughs. Are you still up for it? Then get in but fasten your seatbelts because it's going to be a wild ride. *** Release Days: Twice a week Release Time: ~09:00 PM UTC Words per chapter: ~3000 This web novel is also available on other platforms.

8 377New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make.
