Virgil's POV
It's exhausting taking care of my boyfriend sometimes....
I walked into his room and found his bathroom door open with him inside making himself throw up. "Roman! Oh my lord! This is very unhealthy." I pulled him away from his bathroom and onto his bed. "Sorry." "Don't be sorry! Just, please, don't do this again." "I love you so much. I'd probably kill myself if you broke up with me."
Am I not enough for him? Why can't I make him happy? I know it's not just Remus that could make him feel this bad. What if it's me... I've always been told that's a red flag. Is Roman manipulating me? "I can't do this anymore! You've been a burden on my mental health. I can't help but think that you think I'm not good enough!" My head feels like it's splitting as water streams down my face, "I'm sorry Roman, but I have to break up with you."
"N-no... no." "Yes, I'm sorry." I turned around and left. Something is making my stomach feel bad and the headache's worsening. Was that a scream? Did I scream or was it Roman's?
Did the hallway get more narrow? Why's the ceiling so low? My face is cold. Why's the hallway so small? Oh god. I bet Roman hates me now. I bet he despises me. He'll never speak to me again. He'll never speak to me again. He'll never speak to me again. Why? Why? Small. The hallway is even smaller? Where's my room. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. Where's Patton? I need his help. I need him. I need help. I need... to calm down and stop crying.
I'm trembling down the hall, tears streaming down my face as I hyperventilate and try to find air. I eventually make it to the kitchen where I can see what looks to be a blurry Janus. I move forward and ignore him. I need ice. I need the cold. I grab some ice. My neck. I-

I come back down to earth and everything starts to return to normal, except I'm very cold and soaking wet. And Janus is standing in front of me with a bucket. "Wanna talk?" I nodded my head and we moved to the couch. "I broke up with Roman and I feel-" "I was going to use those!" "What?"

Sins of the Father
Tell my story? Now that's an idea. I am called many things: the Lord of Souls, the Shadow of Death, the Undying Dreamer... I sired the Awakened of old. I have turned beggars into kings and kings into legends. I have argued the nature of man with the fathers of philosophy and spoken of gratitude with the first Sage. Since the dawn of my existence, I have walked the path of power with regard for little else. During the Great Trial, humanity's greatest hour of need, I dragged them from the jaws of their self-inflicted ruin for the sake of my beloved. Even now, few know the truth of it all. I am not a saint or a god. I am a watcher, a judge, a tormentor, and a killer. I am the Father. *** This is a cultivation story about an inhuman entity on its journey of power and self-discovery. The Father's story starts in ancient history and ends in a distant future but the majority of will take place in a near-future post-apocalypse setting. That said, the Urban Fantasy and Post-Apocalypse tags will be hinted at but won't come into play until Advent 3.1: The Great Dream. They'll come fully online at the start of the 3rd arc or 4.1 (story isn't there yet).
8 205Slaying Monsters for Dummies

It sounds like a job for the FBI, except that the criminals are not quite human anymore, and the victims find themselves wielding strange abilities.

And a market to corner. Image by Bella Bergolts. https://www.deviantart.com/bellabergolts The story is told from the perspective of the two protagonists. I have finished writing two arcs and will upload them quickly, the upload rate will slow down after that. I welcome corrections and constructive criticism, in particular when it comes to inconsistencies.
