《The Vampire Titan》Obliviousness
Advertisement
When I walked into the kitchen the next morning, Robin was at the counter, eating a bowl of cereal.
"Good morning, Robin," I sang, making some coffee.
"Good morning, Krystalyn," he greeted. "You seem happy."
I smiled. "I feel like doing something today," I said.
"Like what?" Robin asked.
I shrugged. "Just... something. Nothing productive. Nothing too exciting."
Before he could respond, Cyborg came through the door, yawning loudly. "Morning, guys," he mumbled, stumbling to the fridge.
"Good morning," we greeted, both of us smiling.
"What's on the agenda for today?" the half robot asked, looking at the tofu/Tameranian food disgustedly.
"We were just discussing that," Robin said, also eyeing the strange food.
"You mean you are done with your research, friend Robin?" Starfire asked, coming into the room.
Robin nodded. "Krystalyn knocked some sense into me," he chuckled.
"Oh, joy!" Starfire exclaimed. "This causes for celebration!" The alien girl grabbed Robin by the arm, and dragged him out of the room.
I cocked my head, looking at Cyborg, who was giving me a strange look. "What?" I asked.
"How'd you do it?" he asked.
I sat down with my coffee in hand. "Do what?"
"It usually takes him a lot longer to stop his searching, and when he does, it's still a while before he's completely back," Cyborg explained. "So, how'd you do it?"
I shrugged. "I didn't do much. We just went out for pizza last night."
"That's it?" he asked. "Pizza? And you didn't bring me?!"
I laughed, and stood up, grabbing my coffee cup. "Next time, 'kay? Now what do you think Star is wanting to do?" I asked.
He shrugged. "Who knows. That girl could have a thousand things running through her mind right now."
I smiled. "Then I should dress for anything, I guess."
Cyborg ruffled my hair as I walked past, and I stuck my tongue out. "Do you really need coffee, anyway?" he asked.
I turned to walk backwards, taking a big gulp of the black coffee so he could see. He chuckled, and rolled his eye at me before turning back to the stove where he was putting bacon on a skillet. I grinned and turned, only to run into a green figure.

"Hey, B," I said. "Mornin'."
Beastboy cracked a smile at me. "I'm not used to British accents..." he said. "You sound funny. Say something else!"
I raised an eyebrow. "Like what?" I asked, but he started laughing.
"Again!" he cheered.
"Again what? What's so funny?" I whined.
"Ignore him," Raven said, coming into the room. "He's being stupid. Again."
"No, I want to know what's so funny," I said, glaring at the short green boy that was rolling around on the floor.
“It’s such a lovely day, isn’t it love?” Beastboy said in a mock accent, standing up. He was still chuckling at himself, clearly amused.
“You’re making fun of my accent?” I asked, appalled. “That is the most awful thing-“
“Yes, the most bloody awful thing!” he interrupted.
I glared at the little green teen, and huffed before exiting the room.
“What’s the matter?” Beastboy called, smirking, still using his terrible accent.
I stopped, and turned to face him. “Nothing's the matter,” I said, smiling as my accent was thicker than usual. “I’m just biding my time, love.” I winked, taking another sip of my coffee and then walking out the door.
I made my way to my room, wondering what Starfire had done to Robin. No telling what the red head was planning for today. I looked at myself in the mirror, trying to decide what to do. Makeup was, again, out of the question, but my hair was a mess. Starfire had dragged me to the mall the other day, insisting that I needed a ‘costume.’ To make her happy, I bought several pairs of leggings of all colors, and just as many tank tops. For shoes, I bought a pair of black stilettos boots.
Today, I chose to wear a pair of royal blue leggings, and a white tank top with the UK flag. I slipped my shoes on, and went to the bathroom to fix my hair. I didn’t do much, just combed out all of the knots and tangles, then pinned my bangs back with a bobby pin. I glanced in the mirror, adjusted my tank, and then made my way out of my room, back to the main room.

Everyone was already there, discussing plans. No one seemed to notice me enter, so I used vampire speed to sneak up behind Beastboy, and tackle him to the ground. On the way down, he yelped, and the other Titans jumped up, not knowing it was me. They got into defensive stances, but relaxed when they saw it was me.
“Dude, what are you doing?” Beastboy shouted at me.
“What?” I asked. “Not going to speak in your 'bloody awful' British accent? You aren’t afraid to, are you?” I taunted, quite enjoying myself.
“I, um, you know…,” Beastboy trailed off, still struggling.
“Oh, come on,” I smirked. “I’m sure the others would love to hear your impersonation of me.”
Robin smirked at Beastboy, and Cyborg was trying hard not to laugh. Raven just rolled her eyes at us, and went back to reading her book.
“Apologize,” I ordered, still sitting on the munchkin's back.
“But I was kidding!” he defended, still struggling to get up.
“You can struggle as much as you want. I’m not getting up,” I told him, and he stopped for a little bit.
I smirked, thinking I had won, but was proven wrong when he shifted into an elephant. I yelped as I was shot up into the air, and then flew back as the green elephant bucked up. I landed on Robin, who groaned underneath me.
"No fair!" I shouted, hopping up. "You caught me off guard."
Beastboy shifted back, sticking his tongue out at me. "Who wants pizza?" he asked, and ran out of the room.
I glared at his retreating back, then sighed. "Now I'm going to have to get revenge for him throwing me off his back." I turned, and helped Robin to his feet.
"I'll help you!" Cyborg announced, still laughing. "Consider us partners in crime!"
"This is going to be a beautiful relationship!" I said, looping my arm with his robotic one. "Now, let's talk about the sweet revenge."
"Come friends!" Starfire said gleefully. "Let us eat the wondrous food called pizza!" She whizzed past us, grinning, and I couldn't help smiling at her.
This was a great place, and I'm glad that my new friends forced me to stay here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"No!" Beastboy shouted. "We had your meat junk pizza last time! It's my turn to choose the topping!"
I watched as Cyborg started to throw his menu at Beastboy, and caught it in midair. "Will you two calm down? It's just a pizza."
"Just a pizza?" Beastboy asked, his voice rising an octave with each word. "Just a pizza? Pizza is the food of the gods!"
My eyes widened at his intensity. "Are they always like this?" I whispered to Robin, but he too was now part of the argument. The girls and I just looked at each other, shaking our heads.
"Why don't we do what we always end up doing, and order seperate pizzas?" The salt and pepper shakers on the table exploded, causing everyone to jump. The boys fell silent, looking at each other.
"Fine," they all muttered, and crossed their arms.
I raised my eyebrows at Raven, who gave me a quizzical look. "Lucky! I want to blow stuff up like that!"
She cracked a ghost of a smile, then turned back to her herbal tea that she had brought with her.
"I don't know 'bout y'all, but I'm getting the meat surpreme!" Cyborg declared, putting his menu down.
B looked disgusted, and placed his menu down also. "I'm getting cheese. Where no animals were killed in the process." He glared at the half robot, who glared back.
The waitress from last night came to our table, and took our order, although she looked as if she already knew what was coming. When she saw Robin and I, she smiled at us. "Water and pepperoni?" she asked.
We smiled and nodded, and then she was off. Before she left however, she looked at me, then glanced at Robin and winked. My eyes widened, and I blushed madly.
"You okay?" Robin asked.
I glared at the back of the retreating waitress, then turned to face Robin.
"Just peachy."

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.
