real life!
Adira gazes at the golden frame. Swathes of green and gold surround her as she stands with a glittering smile on her face in her strapless white gown. She is a vision. Lace travels along the bodice, hugging her hips. Her veil falls in a rush behind her. Her crown glares in the sun. A bright bouquet rests in her hands, partly shadowing Justin's arms wrapped around her waist. Leaning over Adira's shoulder, he grins in his black tuxedo, eyes bright.
A voice breaks into the calm. "Thought I'd find you here."
She jumps, then turns, a small smile playing on her lips. "Dada," she says, opening her arms for a hug.
Taking her in his arms, he presses kiss to her hair. "I missed you, Dove."
"Missed you so much," she says, sinking into the hug and nudging against his chest.
He leans away, admiring her for a second. Her eyes are glazed slightly with unshed tears. Her face is pale and flushed, like she was holding in tears that would break the great dams. "I came here to congratulate you on 'follow the white rabbit,' but you look too sad to be a girl who just got married and got a number one record."
"I'm not sad," she denies, shaking her head. "I just wish mommy and Aden could be here."
Robbie sighs. "They would be so proud of you, Dove."
"You can't know that, Dada."
He shakes his head. "Do you know why I call you Dove?"
"You've only told me a thousand times."
He smiles. "I only told you I saw a dove that day, but there's more to it than that." She raises her brows but says nothing. "When I was a little boy, my mom always used to say she'd come to me as a dove if I ever needed her. 'I'll' be your Dove' were her lasts word to me. And I remember I saw you singing in the café that day. Your voice was so beautiful. I was just going to leave that day—say nothing to you—and I was halfway down the street when I saw a dove just sitting there, staring at me. I knew what it meant. Mom was telling me you were the one I was looking for." He looks at the framed picture, then pulls her in tighter. "And I saw a dove right before your wedding, too, you know?"

"Yeah?" she questions, raising her head to look at him. "What does that mean?"
"It means enjoy your moment, Dove. They're saying you'll be okay."

A Fool fooling around in another world
Do you think that a story, where the MC isn't dense as lead, would be fun? Do you think that a story, where flags are intentionally set, would be interesting? Do you think that a story, where the MC isn't a wimp, would be a nice change for once? ...No? Oh... that's not the answer I expected.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
