The gang was at the top of the water tower. The boys stood up, painting, while the girl sat at the edge of the water tower, their feet dangling off.
"Oh my God," Jackie said in awe, "From up here, Point Place looks just like Paris."
"You think that looks like Paris? God, no wonder you think Kelso could be a model," Donna said.
"Paris? No. Salt Lake City? Maybe." Lucy sighed defeated.
"Whoa, I could so be a model!" Kelso yelled.
"Shut up man, just keep painting!" Hyde instructed.
"I love how this was my idea, yet I get pushed out of giving the directions," Lucy turned around.
"Well doll, sorry to say it's done," Hyde said with a smirk.
Kelso jumped down from the ledge with a laugh.
"Gentlemen, we have finally done it! We drew a pot leaf on the water tower!" Eric said satisfied.
"Wouldn't have done anything if I hadn't thought of it," Lucy crossed her arms.
"This is the proudest moment of my life," Fez started to cry and Lucy hugged him.
"It doesn't look like a pot leaf," Hyde pointed out.
"What?" Kelso said insulted.
"It looks like a hand giving the finger!" Hyde said.
Lucy started to double over with laughter, "See! If you would've let me tell you how to paint it! We wouldn't be flipped off by the grinch right now!"
"It doesn't have to look perfect! It's art!" Kelso defended.
"Ah yes, art of the pissed off Christmas thief," Fez laughed.
"Get up and make it better!" Hyde told Kelso.
"Fine!" Kelso said stepping up on the ledge.
"Just make it wider, out there!" Hyde pointed.
"No, no, the middle part. Make it less skinny and finger-like," Lucy pushed Hyde aside.
"I think I know where to tell him to paint," Hyde argued.
"Obviously not because it wasn't done right the first time!" Lucy laughed looking at the "pot leaf."
Meanwhile, Kelso was leaning back trying to paint where the two were telling him to. And he fell off.
"Oh my God! Michael!" Jackie yelled.
Luckily, Kelso had landed on all the trees below, softening the landing slightly.
"Hey! Kelso!" Hyde called.
"Yeah?" Kelso asked wearily.
"How's it look from down there?"
Lucy smacked him upside the head for being an idiot.
"It looks like the grinch is giving me the finger!" Kelso replied.
❁
The gang rushed to get Kelso and bring him back to the Formans', where hopefully, Kitty could help.
"You guys are so stupid! We should just take him to the hospital" Jackie protested.
"No Jackie! Then my dad would find out," Kelso said, moving his arm slightly and then grabbing it and yelling in pain. He sunk down into the couch as Jackie and Donna tried to examine the damage.
"Ok Mom's a nurse I'm gonna go wake her up and see if she can...fix him," Eric said, looking at Kelso.
"Just don't wake up Red, though, huh? He'll kill us all," Hyde said seriously.
"Not me," Lucy sang falling down into the arm chair as Hyde sat on the arm of the chair.
"Twin Code," Eric threatened.
"Damn," Lucy sighed.
Eric slowly crept up the stairs, trying not to aggravate Red or kill him and his friends. The rest of the gang stayed in the living room.
"How is it that I can have simple, great ideas, and yet you idiots manage to ruin them?" Lucy said absentmindedly as she twirled a piece of her hair.

"Tragic really, look at these morons," Hyde agreed.
"Oh no, you're lumped into the idiot category Steven," Lucy said seriously.
Hyde put his hand over his heart, pretending to be hurt.
Eric came rushing down the stairs, "Alright, everybody hop in the car, and let's go now."
"What about your mom?" Kelso asked, concerned for himself.
"Shut up! Don't you dare talk about my mother!" Eric yelled, grabbing Kelso by the collar.
"Eric! Calm down!" Lucy laughed, standing up and pulling her brother away from the poor boy.
"In a calm and orderly fashion, get your ass in the Cruiser before my brother loses his mind," Lucy said calmly.
"You heard the woman," Hyde stood up with a smirk. He picked Lucy up, causing her to squeal, and flipped her over his shoulder, hand on her ass.
Lucy rolled her eyes and blew hair out of her face, "Real classy Steven," Lucy complained.
"I think you mean real assy," Fez laughed uncontrollably.
"No inappropriate touching!" Eric yelled paranoid.
The group walked to the car silently, Hyde casually walking as Lucy was still slung over his shoulder.
❁
The gang sat in the hospital room with Kelso as he was on the phone with his father.
Lucy sat on the other side of the hospital bed, Hyde's head in her lap and she pulled at his curls in attempts to annoy him, but he had already fallen asleep.
"No Dad, there's no way this could've been avoided. Yeah the cow kicked me after I kicked it over! I'm not lying! Okay, all right, I love you too," Kelso hung up the phone. He laughed in success, "He bought it!"
"Eric are you alright?" Donna asked concerned.
"They were sleeping!" Eric answered quickly.
Kelso and Jackie started making, which apparently was Jackie's way of nursing him back to health.
"Alright! That's it! I'm going whoever wants a ride," Eric shot up from his seat and opened the door.
Lucy tugged on the sleeve of Hyde's shirt and pulled him up, taking his hand and guiding the tired boy to the door. The five of them started out the door when Kelso came up for air.
"Sorry about tonight guys."
"Sorry? What for? We got to watch you fall! I had a blast!" Hyde exclaimed.
Lucy hit him upside the head the second time in one night and continued to pull on his hand to get to the car.
❁
Eric had been acting weird, more so than usual, and everyone had been picking up on it.
One morning, in the kitchen, Kitty was reading Is Johnny High? and was worried because Eric was 9/10 of the symptoms. At first, Lucy found it amusing but it was becoming more annoying as he became paranoid.
The gang sat in the basement, watching some stupid show with horny girls. Lucy sat on the arm of the couch, her legs draped over the side and her elbow propped on the back of the couch.
"Man these afterschool specials are thrilling, who knew it only take one beer to turn a cheerleader into a whore?" Fez said in awe.
"You know Fez this show contains an important message. That very thing happened to a good friend of mine," Jackie said pointing to the screen.
"Really, may I ask who?" Fez asked innocently.
Lucy tried to stifle her laugh as she rolled her eyes at the boy.
"Man, that is one drunk, slutty cheerleader," Hyde noted.
"There goes her skirt," Lucy joked.

"And there go her pom poms," Donna laughed.
Eric jumped up from his seat to lunge and turn off the tv, "Alright! That is quite enough! Everywhere I look now it's sex, sex, sex, and it's disgusting! And I will not have it in my basement!" Eric yelled.
"Our basement," Lucy corrected teasingly. "Chill Eric, it's not like any of us are doing it in the basement—at least I don't think Jackie and Kelso have."
"Ew! No we haven't!" Jackie screeched.
"Eric, what's wrong with you?" Donna asked.
"Oh, well, excuse me, Donna, for having a little moral fiber," Eric replied sarcastically. He sat down, clutching his hands and still looking scarred.
"Okay, I'm gonna go check on Michael," Jackie said, standing up.
"Yeah, how's he doing?" Hyde asked.
"Oh! Oh yeah like you care!" Jackie scoffed.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Lucy turned away from her magazine, narrowing her eyes in confusion and in challenge.
"Oh! Don't just blindly take his side on this one too!" Jackie said exasperated.
"I'm not taking sides, I just don't appreciate your passive aggressive bitchiness. You have something to say, grow a vagina and say it," Lucy hissed.
"He just needs to apologize!" Jackie yelled.
"Apologize for what?" Hyde asked confused, holding Lucy's ankle so she wouldn't get up and kill Jackie, and absentmindedly rubbing circles with his thumb.
"Well if you don't know then obviously you're a big fat jerk!" Jackie yelled, storming out of the basement.
"Okay, she's crazy," Hyde said.
"I know you are not fat!" Fez said confused.
"No, but his ego is," Lucy taunted. Hyde yanked her ankle and pulled her into his lap, tickling her.
Eric jumped again, "Stop touching you heathens!" He pulled Lucy off of Hyde and pulled her upstairs.
❁
Lucy stood awkwardly at the kitchen counter, watching Eric as he silently made toast.
The toast popped up and Eric didn't move so Lucy looked at him quizzically as she took a piece.
Laurie walked in, her hands on her hips as she looked at Eric confused. "Eric!" she yelled.
"Get off my mom—What?" Eric said, spinning around to Laurie.
"What is it with you, you've been extra..." Laurie trailed off, not sure what word to use.
"Weird? Loser-like?" Lucy offered.
"Yeah, loser-y," Laurie said with a smirk.
"I saw mom and dad having sex," Eric said, ashamed and looking down.
Lucy dropped her toast and jumped from the stool, quickly running over to her twin and hugging him reassuringly.
"Oh you poor thing! It's alright! Baby it's fine!" Laurie said, pulling him into a hug and petting his hair comfortingly.
"Oh Lucy, Laurie! It was horrible! I can't get the image out of my mind! It was Mom and Dad but they were like a pair of wildebeest on a National Geographic special," Eric pulled away from the two girls.
"It's okay! I'll find a hypnotist and we'll get the image burned out," Lucy rambled, ready to rush to the phone.
"Eric, I'm so sorry but Mom and Dad are in love, they have urges and needs just like us," Laurie said calmly.
"No urges, no needs," Eric said.
Lucy gagged as she flipped through the phone book.
"I learned in psychology class that what you went through is traumatic," Laurie explained.
"You needed psychology class for that?" Lucy said bewildered.
Laurie nodded, "But don't worry, many people have had this same experience."
"Really? Did they turn out alright?" Eric asked hopefully.
Laurie hesitated, "Some of them turned out to be serial killers."
Lucy sighed and slammed the phone book shut, "Well no hypnotist can help with that!" she threw her hands in the air.
"I think it's just a coincidence!" Laurie turned to her siblings frantic. "But whatever," she said defeated.
"You know what the said thing is? I think you're actually trying to be nice!" Eric said.
"Yeah, it's just not my strong suit, sorry," Laurie sighed.
Lucy came back over to her siblings and took Laurie's hand, "You're doing great," she reassured her sister. "And you're going to turn out perfectly fine!" Lucy said, taking Eric's hand.
Eric and Laurie nodded and Lucy gagged again, "Sorry," she apologized, "I thought about Mom and Dad on National Geographic."
❁
Everyone was in the basement. Jackie and Kelso walked in, Kelso with a sling and Jackie with a steely glare.
"Oh look Jackie! It's my friends! Lucy, Eric, Donna, and Fez!" Kelso exclaimed.
Lucy furrowed her eyebrows and looked at the couple confused.
"Yep! That's all my friends!" Kelso said looking straight at Hyde.
"Kelso, if you have something to say to me why don't you just say it?" Hyde said.
"Oh no! I think you have something to say to me! And I'll be right over here when you're ready to say it!" Kelso said, walking over to the freezer.
"Alright this is stupid! Hyde just apologize already!" Eric yelled.
"It's not my fault!" Hyde replied.
"Well whatever, he thinks it is," Donna explained.
"Look, I'm sorry alright, I'm the one that had the idea and I'm the one that said it was the grinch. Is everything alright now?" Lucy asked.
"It's Hyde's fault! He's the one that made me fall off the water tower!" Kelso said accusatorially.
"How? Did I push you?" Hyde asked turning around.
"No."
"Did I make the railing slippery?"
"No."
"Then how is it my fault?"
"Because you didn't like my artwork!" Kelso yelled. "And you don't respect me! And you're inconsiderate of my feelings!"
"No offense but you sound like a chick, like Lucy or something," Hyde said seriously.
Lucy started to protest but Donna just shook her head, knowing it wasn't worth it.
"Man I do!" Kelso yelled in realization.
"You remember that time when I was climbing your fence, hit my forehead on a tree branch, fell into your yard and your dog, Yogi, came out of the house and bit me twice on the ass," Hyde told the story and Lucy's eyes went wide when she remembered the incident.
"Yeah, Lucy pulled the branch back because you pushed her ass and she fell. You bled and you cried," Kelso laughed.
Hyde looked over at Lucy in shock, he was just learning it was because of her. She was trying desperately to stifle a laugh.
"I'll get you back for that one," Hyde said.
"It was years ago!" Lucy yelled.
"And I didn't cry," Hyde defended himself.
"Yeah you did," Lucy and Kelso said simultaneously.
"And you laughed man while I was bleeding," Hyde chuckled. "Do you see my point?"
"Yeah, it's funny when your friends get hurt," Kelso laughed.
"Close enough," Hyde shrugged. "Sorry."
"Stop talking like a chick," Kelso laughed.
The rest of them just watched while Kelso and Hyde started hitting eachother. "They're both idiots," Jackie said dumbfounded.

Synergy
Dear Inspector, Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from being a Player. Hey! Laugh all you want, but I had to try. With no rules down here, who's to say that I can't resign? Anyway, my reasons are simple: I'm neither a gamer nor a hero. You got the wrong person for the job. Sure, the pay is decent and I could pretty much live like a king if, you know, I wasn't so busy trying to survive. I have major concerns about the demonic dagger bound to my soul too. Come to think of it, I've never asked to be transported to this fantasy land either and would like you to return me home, thank you very much. I don't want supernatural powers, I don't want to complete quests after quests, and I don't want to be your test subject anymore. What? I'm not whining, you're whining. Stop making excuses and let me leave already. Thank you for your understanding, and I hope you'll find a better replacement after I'm gone for good. Sincerely,Randel, the Mad Painter What to expect from Synergy: --> Some GameLit elements are presented subversively. If you want the protagonist to “play the game” properly, this might not be the story for you.--> No filler chapters; the story's structure is already plotted out. It's going to have six story arcs.--> Character development happens slowly, over many chapters. Don't expect a perfect protagonist right off the bat.--> Some romance, but it will never be the main focus.--> Humor and dark elements in equal measure, but not to the extent that I’d label this story as “Comedy” or “Grimdark”. ... and lots and lots of Author's Notes. See you on the other side of the portal!

Cosmic Plague
In this world, everyone is cursed with a single fate: Become the most powerful. But those who do become powerful, they hate it. Power is misery and death is the solace. လလလ Nazar, a weapon of mass destruction created by the ancient God of Destruction revolted against his creator a long time ago. While he did defeat his creator, the power he was given is still within him. He is cursed with infinite power, standing at the top of the celestial hierarchy. He has more power and wealth than he needs. But even then, he craves one thing; death. He wants to die. Power is misery and death is the solace, but he cannot achieve his only goal. He cannot die. Perhaps that will change when one day, an ancient cosmic Goddess rises from her grave? Perhaps she will finally kill him? Or will she fall short before his awesome yet terrible power? Only time will tell. This is a high cosmic story about the hypocritical life of the protagonist and how it affects everyone (and everything) around him. Naturally, it features very overpowered characters with a lot of high stakes battles roaming across the cosmos. Warning: Swearing, some suggestive sexual gestures/words, gore. Feedback is highly welcomed. (The story was originally named, God's Return, but I wanted to change it.)
