《Shards of Sugar (2022 - x) - [Poetry By Eclipse 3]》diabetes

It's so sweet,
soaked in honey,
a little deathly.
Soft and creamy.
Cringeworthy.
Such a treat,
no, honestly.
Not being funny.
Its honey's so runny.
Slimy.
Glazed glucose,
poisoning the heart
with a guilty kind of sickness.
Teeth sink into its surface,
while it's smothered by the tongue.
Then mechanical digestion takes place,
and shades of pink flood the face.
That gross creature commits gluttony,
fingertips silky wet with a bear's honey.
They warn the children of nosebleeds that never happen.
And now they're forcing bees into labour for more,
consumerism.
Capitalism.
But they just can't get enough,
so they take whole handfuls to stuff
themselves with so monstrously,
why don't they take their self-worth seriously?
Things I'll never know.
Drowning their souls in artificiality.
Such animality.
Diabetes in a bowl,
needles, leaves and a hole
that expands
to swallow them whole,
takes them to wastelands
where they'll exist,
wasted and repulsive.
Yet they still remain impulsive.
So repulsive.
So impulsive.
Still.
Sickly.
Sticky like a disease.
But they'll never ask for help, so please,
don't bother anymore.
They're lost at their core.

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.

Our main character (a cat) adventures with his friends and encounters many situations.Author's Note:Hello. This is my first story. Though I hesitate to call it such. It is supposed to be relatively relaxed for the most part. Any constructive criticism is welcome. My updates will be slower than a snail and my chapters are relatively short so deal with it please and don't murder me. Romance should come in later. Thank you~
