《February of 1996》12

Irena was in her room, and most of her clothes didn't fit her anymore.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she noticed that her bump was bigger now. She was almost five months pregnant.
She was looking through her closet, finding something big that could fit her. She was able to find a big shirt. This will do, for now, she thought.
She went downstairs to make herself breakfast. Using a bit of magic, she was able to make herself breakfast. It wasn't as good as the food at Hogwarts, but it had to do.
Once she was done eating, she washed the dishes that were dirty and made her way upstairs. She was tired since yesterday she cleaned around the house. There was a lot of dirt all over the place. Most of the year, she was at Hogwarts, and her parents aren't home a lot; the house would get dirty quickly.
She received a letter from Fred telling her that he was home with his parents. He and George were going to spend the weekend at the Burrow. In the letter, Fred also mentioned how she should go to Diagon Alley to see the shop they were getting a lot of customers since the term ended. She wrote back telling him about the baby and that she would love to get a tour of the shop.
It was later that day, and Irena was laying on her bed. When she heard some noises coming from downstairs, her parents must be home already. She got up and said the charm to hide her bump she first wanted to tell her parents. She made her way downstairs and saw her parents walking to the kitchen.
"Hi, mum and dad," said Irena. "Hello, sweetheart," said her mom, coming close to her, hugging her. "Irena, what are you doing here," her father asked, looking at her. "Uhm, the term ended, father." "Oh well, fetch me something, to drink would you." Irena did as she was told. She got a glass and poured some water in. Her parents were already sitting at the dining table.

She got closer to the table. Maybe this was her time to tell them.
She opened her mouth to talk, but before the words even left her mouth, her mum started to talk. "Sweetheart, you have gained a bit of weight," her mum Agatha said without looking at her.
It was true her arms and legs were a bit fuller, and you could notice her cheeks a bit more. "I actually wanted to talk to you about that, well, something related to that." "And what is it," her mum said, not looking at her again.
Her parents were writing something on parchment paper, not paying attention to her at all.
"I'm pregnant," she blurted out.
This made her parents stop what they were doing, and her mother looked at her with an expression that made her feel scared. "You are what!!" her mother shrieked, getting up from the chair.
Irena backed away a bit. "I'm pregnant," she said again.
Her mother, with anger in her eyes, looked at her up and down. Her mother pointed her wand at Irena and undo the charm, letting her bump in full display. "On believable," her mother said with disgust. "Is this what you are doing instead of your studies; you can't even keep your legs close" her mother couldn't even look at her anymore.
"This is not how we raise you, Irena," said her father, Erasmus, firmly pointing his index finger at her.
"Raise me," Irena said, not believing what her father said. "I had to raise myself on my own! You guys would leave me alone for the last seven years I have spent Christmas at Hogwarts. You guys did not even bother to write letters," said Irena angrily.
"Don't raise your voice at us," said her mother firmly. "You are ungrateful, Irena, we have given you everything! That you could possibly need." "We have worked so hard, Irena," said her father. "To give you everything— "I wanted you guys to be with me. I haven't seen you two since last year!"

"Leave my house and never come back, we don't want you or that child."
With tears in her eyes, Irena made her way upstairs, rushing to her room and getting her trunk. She placed it in her bed and started to get some clothes from her closet.
Her clothes didn't fit her anymore she needed to buy new ones.
She got a small bag that was under the bed, it had money, and put it inside her trunk. She closed her trunk and looked around her room, seeing what else she would need. She got her wand and made her way downstairs.
Without saying a word to her parents, she left the manor, not looking back.

“Mr. Li, please keep your hands to yourself.”
8 1916Gloryland
**for Quravin** It's the summer of 2010, and Evan Barker's older brother Jason has just committed suicide. His devastated parents are reeling from the Recession, his friends are shiftless drunks, and his younger sister has been committed after discovering Jason's body. In an attempt to assuage the trauma his family has experienced and break away from his own shitty existence, Evan decides to grab his portion of the modern American Dream by trying out for that year's American Idol auditions in Nashville. Never mind that Evan's a 21-year-old virgin with a self-image as poor as his social skills. Never mind that he's never even attempted to sing before. In 21st century America, anything is possible, or so Evan's been told by a cultural upbringing of "Follow your dreams" and "Everyone is special" and "True love awaits". Speaking of true love, Evan asks Lily Trent to accompany him on the journey. Lily is a childhood acquaintance with whom he's recently reconnected and developed a crush on. Lately Lily's been working as a stripper, a cynical and jaded young woman who may or may not have her own motivations for joining Evan on the trip. Evan hopes the time alone will spark reciprocal affections in Lily, and an improbable come-from-nowhere triumph on national TV will not only free his family from their blue collar burdens, but win him the respect and love he craves-- not just from others, but from himself. Together, Evan and Lily discover why learning how to fail may be their generation's greatest lesson. Cover art by Gerry Siorek
8 206By Myself
The diurnal monsters worship the day, while the nocturnal creatures rule over the night. But nothing opposes two folks more than living on the same land at the same time. Humanity prospered until it reached a pre-industrial age where the largest cities observed the first long chimneys made in brick whereas the smaller villages still had to cut the forest's logs with their axe. But to get to this flourishing era, something had to be sacrificed.
8 183The First Primordial [DROPPED]
[Story dropped until further notice, I don't currently plan on restarting the story but will leave it as a possible option] During the Creation and before the inception of the Realms, there were 3 beings. Known as Primordials, beings even the God's knew little about that were rumoured to be myths or legends. Follow one of such beings that, given the unflattering name Arthur and the species of Demon, must figure out his place within the realms and find his fellow Primordials. Spending the beginning of creation within what will be called The White Realm then spending an unknown amount of time screwing around in the Demon Realm. Once he finally begins his story, he will be acquainted with a world full of grand vistas, religious nuts and floating rocks which will remove whatever little common sense he had remaining. Of course, there will be no shortage of trouble that will complicate things that (due to a poor ability in making good first impressions) will cause more than a few worlds changing events. These events include the destruction of a church and minor religion, including the death of that religion's God, messing with the reincarnated people and even introducing his own reincarnators along with the slight involvement of a war between the Demon Realm and the Creation Realm. Slow burn story; expect the story to be long with plot being introduced as it goes along. The story will include a main character with an actual mind and personality that will create, learn, and even destroy as the story progresses with an emphasis on what experiencing the other side of most novels, a perspective on that one whimsical god that brings the protagonist from one world to another that is only ever mentioned in the starting chapter. [PS- This will be my first time writing, so advice, tips and critiques will be appreciated. The release schedule is a bit iffy and unreliable but will mostly be every Sunday]
