"Taeyooong!" Alex whines, tugging on his elders elbow like the annoying small child he is. Taeyong turns around and gives him a look which doesn't shut him up, so I'm guessing his motherly looks of pure 'shut yo ass up' and pure disappointment don't work anymore for this single mother of 17 and soon to be 20.
"Yes Alex?" He sighs
"I'm bored- HOLY SHIT OH MY GOOOOD!" Alex screams in excitement, shoving Taeyong out the way and bolting over to a man and and woman standing right in front of the isle for toddlers. The one full of colourful speaking plastic cars and teddies with creepy faces.
They're in Target if you haven't noticed.
The pair of strangers turn around in sync as the teen runs overt to them. "Oh my god, hi! I'm such as massive fan of you two!" He screeches in a whispery voice and the two laugh as Taeyong trails behind confused.
"Guys we've bumped into a subscriber!" David says with a big smile at the camera as Alex pulls Taeyong beside him. Switching back and forth between Korean and English, Alex finally manages to introduce his elder to his idols in the American world.
"What's your name?" Liza asks
"My name is Alex" he responds in pure excitement.
Liza looks confused as she studies his face more. "I, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before but I cant place my finger on it..."
"Uh is it because I'm apart of NCT?"
"OH MY GOD YES, IM SUCH A BIG FAN!"
...
I will admit this wasn't my finest work, but its okay.
Anyway, so here's a few things that have happened while I haven't posted anything.
1) my uncle who lives in Manila at the moment was dancing to BTS in a bar one night

2) i got my braces off as I've told i think already i cant remember and today i got my retainer in
3) I've figured out by now that a few writers i follow have names for their readers, like how CreatureChanLixQueen calls her readers her Stray Creatures and things like that, so I've decided to call my readers my 𝐿𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁𝒾𝑒𝓈 because of the fact that I love each and every one of you! (p.s, it used to be relatable potatoes but I say 'I love you' or 'lovelies' more often so yeah...
I love you all xx

Old Riding Author Lunatic Asylum
Just off the A19, in the dark, incomprehensible lands known as Yorkshire, there lies a town. A town where shadow-silent alleys glint with the secret hunger of knives. Where blood soaks the chipboard window shutters of forsaken terraces stretching off into the night. Where the smog-choked air rattles with the depraved laughter echoing out from clubs that can only generously be described as post-apocalyptic. Well, that’s Middlesbrough. But down the A19 a bit (an impossibly long way down, actually) there lies another town: Raughnen, in the ancient, forgotten Old Riding. It is an equal match in muggery and thuggery alike. It also has magic spells and pointy wizard hats. And now, across the miles and across all sensibilities, a pretty nasty power (a magic one) calls out for its pretty nasty counterpart (a decidedly unmagic one): a proper sound Boro lad. Nothing good can come of it. This is a collection of one novella and four connected short stories: I. A Yorkshire Summoning II. Old Riding Day Trip (the novella) III. Heaven is a Parmo IV. Death on the 66 V. Death on the 257 In total, this comprises 34 chapters totalling around 35,000 words, so try not to worry. It will be over relatively quickly. There are three more short stories with more tenuous links to the core collection: Rush, Paper Round and Scenario 79: Sausage Fingers, all of which can be found in my collection Short Records of Misadventure. Reading these may allow you to make more sense of certain parts of the story, if any sense is to be made at all. NOTE: There are instances of prejudice and discrimination within these stories, including elements of sexism and ageism, which are purely the thoughts and actions of the characters involved and which certainly do not reflect my own views on these matters. ANOTHER NOTE; A WARNING, PERHAPS: This can get a bit weird. In less than 150 pages, we have four viewpoints, first and third person narratives, and a completely disjointed plot with lots of gaps, dead ends and no real resolution. Also ZERO lunatic asylums. It's all a bit odd. If that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, which it most likely isn't, it might be best to move on now.
8 190Second Chances
Given a chance for reincarnation and tasked by the System, I picked the Sidhe for this second life. A world of Seelie, Unseelie, Kelpie, Redcaps, and Slaugh. The Gods of the Tuantha de Danann forced into sleep, the people forced to remain locked on their home planet. In this latest Book, Teigh Mac de Beleros y Cyronax has saved his people from stagnation and ruin. His denouncement of Olympus and Asgard before the Universal Senate has allowed the Sidhe to break the ties that constrained them, and the chains that kept them rooted to their home world. But the Sidhe and the Tuatha de Danann are unique across all multi-verses and all Pantheons. They have the unique ability to travel anywhere and anywhen. But this ability comes at a cost. The Tuatha de Danann do not have incarnations seeded across each Universe. There is only one Tuatha de Danann, and when Athena and Loki come to Teigh with the tales of a plot that will destroy not only the Tuatha de Danann but the multi-verse, he removes his crown to once more face off against Zeus and Odin and save his people. Second Chances has been taken down for editing and a major rewrite...
8 138The Choices We Make
The Moldy Donut is a derelict gateway through space that links two distance solar systems. It has been made obsolte by cheaper jump drive technology and is mostly abandoned. But a change in resource availability has made ring gates such as the Moldy Donut relevant again. A crew of technicians must battle the Donut's risks in order to bring just one of her segments back online.
8 80To Be Cursed
Scourcers wouldn't be scourcers without chi. The Zagrans wouldn't be Zagrans without scourcers. And Karma, well she wouldn't be Karma without without her father. After King Karmic proposes that he sends his youngest daughter, Karma's kid sister, off to assassinate the Zagran prince, Karma can't keep herself from stepping up. She uses this moment not only to save her sister from certain death, but to gain an understanding of the creatures that everyone keeps calling beasts. She has six weeks to kill the prince, six weeks to explore things unknown, six weeks to figure out why King Karmic really wants the Zagran lands.
8 223Flatlander
A sell-sword struggles to find meaning in a world filled with pain, violence, and loss. Noble Houses rule from Hoverstones that loom over the Flatlands and the Highlands; they act in their own interests, playing politics and more. Tribesmen roam free, a true terror to all they prey upon. Elves scour the lands for objects of great power. And there are rumors of dragons, reemerging at the beckon call of new masters.... Written in a style similar to Game of Thrones, though different and unique, Flatlander is a serial novel filled with uncertainty, peril, and, for the bold, fortune. Enjoy!
