Trigger Warning; This is a Remus chapter....yeah...and he's talking with Remy...so...
Mentions of gore, cursing, bad parenting, vulgar thoughts about Uno cards(Just...read it..._), mentions of triggering a phobia
A/N- There's alot of stupid puns in this, but I'm proud of all of them, so shut up.
Remus isn't used to pure kindness. He's used to yelling, and sass, and snarky replies. He's used to insults, deprecation, and a small, painful hollowness. His parents hated him for existing. They weren't supposed to have twin boys. Their plan was 1 boy and 1 girl. Preferably- older brother younger sister. But no, they had twin boys. So obviously- one of them was a mistake. And obviously- it was the second one. The one that came into existence like an unwanted after thought.
He was intrusive. Or so- that's how his parents treated him. As if he were nothing more than an intrusive thought. So- he gave them many, shameless, unwanted thoughts throughout his life. He diligently searched up disturbing facts and ideas online, then he'd speak (scream, preferably) them at the most inappropriate times. Until the thoughts just came naturally, true or not, and it just became part of who he is.
And he loves the freedom of it. He says whatever he wants, and no one can stop him. It's definitely a sure fire way to make sure none of his friends are fake. He's not popular, but he loves the friends he has. He has 2 friends, Remy and Emile. Emile is fascinated with the way Remus' mind works, and is constantly asking questions about how he gets to his responses.
Whenever Remus wants to do something stupid, Remy's only response is, "Okay, but first, Starbucks."
And then, by that point, they're calmed down and Emile had convinced them to not capture a vulture and set it loose in Roman's school- but hey, an evil twin can dream!

You would think that Remus would skip school, but no. Why?
Causing Chaos is envigorating.
He loves his friends
He loves seeing his parents faces when he "surprisingly" gets good grades
Remus wants to either be a psychologist(he would know how to mess with anyone who bothers him. Insult his best friend? Hey, let's make you highly uncomfortable and possibly trigger some type of phobia!), a medical examiner so he can perform autopsies, a surgeon (do you know how many guts and how much blood we would get to look through?) Or one of those survival show hosts, the ones who kiss snakes and eat beetles~!
So, yes, Remus Prince the Unknown, does plan on having a life. He may be a wild card, but even wild cards have a purpose, and, in Uno, they're everyone's favorite.
Speaking of Uno...
Remus threw down a wild +4 card on the stack.
Remy gaped, "Um, bitch! How do you keep getting all of the wild cards?"
Remus smiled and shrugged, "Maybe the cards are Remus-sexual."
Remy looked at him over his sunglasses, "Remus-sexual" you mean they'd be cool with fucking you?"
Remus grinned, "I meannnn.....if they want~" Remus glances thoughtfully at the wildcard on top of the pile.
Emile flushed at the conversation going on, "Um- how about none of us have intercourse with playing cards!?"
Remus smiled, "Aw~ Emmy~ don't be jealous ~~!! I can- "
What Remus could do was cut off by sputtering from Emile, "N- no, Remus!" Emile flopped his blue 5 on top of the green 5 Remy placed.
Remus, "Boring~~!!"
It was Emile's turn, again, when Remus decided to insert, "JELLY MADE OUT OF BLOOD AND GUTS!"
Remy froze and just stared at Remus like, wtf..?
Emile tilted his head at Remus, "...how did you think of that...?"

Remus grinned at the question. He loves when people show interest in his thoughts, it makes him feel safe and validated, "Well, people in movies always say blood is made out of jam as a joke- I made my brother think I blended my hand off, but the blood was just ketchup," Remus remembered the false concern his self centered brother showed, and resisted frowning. Was it false...? "So I thought- but what if it was real!?"
"Why did you trick your brother like that?" Emile wrote something down on a Tigger notepad he always carries around.
Remus scowled, "Because he's a heartless el princi-poop. He deserves a scare."
Emile, "Hm...can we meet him?"
Remus, "....why do you want to meet my twin bother?
Remy, "Babes, Emili-licious loves figuring out why people act the way they do. You and your brother's out there personalities are paradise to him."
Remus shrugged, "Fine, but let me know if he starts a acting like a brag queen."
Emile was practically bouncing, "Yay, thank you so much!"
The Crystal Rems rolled their eyes with affection.
Obviously, Emile gave them that nickname.

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.

P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT: Aeon Genesis
The first project focusing on four protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century Europe.This is the first P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT focusing on 3 (+1) protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century-esque Europe. Each story has its own protagonists (Male or Female Lead), genres (mainly Western Fantasy), and can be read as a standalone. Status: OngoingUpdate(s) per week: 1Words per chapter: 3000 - 6000 *** ‘A human or not; a king or a servant; hope or despair; a hero or a villain.’ Depending on one's perspective and how each story portrays, one will view an individual or a group as evil or virtuous. Because of that, it depends on the reader and listener to believe which one is the truth. More people read and trust multiple (trusted?) sources that either complement or contradict one another. The contradiction becomes the source of debates between those who believe and those who don’t. From that difference in belief, two groups appear: The Majority and The Minority. The majority, having more people, suppress the minorities’ beliefs, claiming theirs, the majorities’, to be the truth. However, the majority are not only composed solely of those who share the same belief but also those who know the truth but afraid to admit it. They have to keep quiet and turn a blind eye for their safety. The majority had to submit to those with power and authority. With the majority under control, those with power and authority can create, manipulate, and/or fabricate truth and lies by force. The reason was for one’s or group’s personal benefits. In the end, there is no such thing as ‘absolute truth’; only sugar-coated lies created by the top. Don’t believe me? It is up to you to decide. Go and read it yourself.

My Isekai
For those not familiar with the isekai genera, this story is about a man waking up in an unknown world. The story follows his journey and life in this world, which does not only look different on the surface, but the common norms and values of this world are very alien to the modern western mindset. How will this average western person respond to such a world, and how will it change him. For those familiar with isekai, this is a western take on a predominantly Japanese story format. It draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese isekai, but it also tries to tackle a lot of tropes that might be annoying to the western mindset. The story is not written for young boys as the story tries to take a mature take on some typical clichés and assumptions made by both the typical writer and reader of the genera.
