《The Snake In My Dreams》Ch. 26

"Hey, Logan."
Logan, who was doing something out of view, jumped and scrambled to put it away. "R-Remus!" He squawked.
Remus rose a brow. It wasn't easy to startle Logan so badly.
He felt a smirk make its way to his face.
"Logan!" He gasped. "Don't tell me you're looking at something naughty~?"
Logan's eyes widened, and red tinted his cheeks. "I-I--"
Remus' eyes widened as well. "Wait, actually?!"
"No!" Logan exclaimed. "No! No, it's not!" He shook his head fiercely.
Remus examined every bit of his expression to see if he was lying. What he found out was way more surprising.
"Lo," Remus began slowly. "Have you been crying?"
Logan frowned, clearing his throat. "What do you need, Remus?"
"Well," Remus chirped. Oh, they would definitely be returning to that conversation, but he would give Logan a chance to compose himself. "So, y'know that plan I asked you to come up with?"
"Yes?" Logan furrowed his brow.
"Well, what would you do if one half of the couple finds out you've been sabotaging them?"
"What was their response?" Logan asked.
"They seemed rather forgiving, and even offered to let you have a shot with their partner." Remus hummed.
Logan thought about it, eyes glazing over in deep thought. Remus watched awkwardly, anxious to know his answer.
"I would accept their offer." Logan said finally.
"Are you sure?" Remus asked. "You'd be willing ruining their relationship, and pursuing your own selfish desires."
"Yes," Logan nodded. "But in this scenario, I was already doing those two things. Frankly, I would have nothing left to lose."
"You think so?" Remus mumbled, furrowing his brow.
Logan sighed. "Is that all?"
"Are you alright, Logan?" Remus asked immediately.

"I don't really think that is any of your buisness, Remus." Logan said.
"I'm making it my buisness right now." Remus sitting down on Logan's bed. "Spill." He patted the spot next to him.
Logan frowned, remaining where he stood. "I'm not very comfortable with the current conversation."
"Tough shit." Remus rolled his eyes. He snorted. Tough shit. Like very durable feces.
"We have never been particularly close. The only reason you've been talking to me lately is for that plan." Logan huffed. "I don't understand your concern."
"I'm not very good at this whole 'feelings' thing, but I can tell something is bugging you. Fess up."
Logan scowled, walking over to his desk, and sitting down in his chair.
"I will not 'fess up.' I have of work to do, I'll have you know. I simply do not have the time for--"
"Do you wanna go to the Imagination with me or something? I'm not very good at making pretty things, but I know how much you like stars--"
"I can't. I'm very busy."
"C'mon, Lo! Loosen up a bit!"
"Please leave, Remus. I have tons of work to do and you will only distract me--"
"All you ever do is work--"
"Because that's all I have!" Logan snapped, slamming his hands onto his desk.
Remus jumped, having not expected that.
It was tense for a few moments, Remus staring at Logan in suprise.
Logan quickly composed himself, adjusting his tie. "...apologies." He mumbled, refusing to look in Remus' direction. "Please leave, Remus. I have work to do."
Remus frowned.
"Okay."

Remus woke up with a bloodstained sword in his hand.
His serotonin levels immediately increased drastically. The sight of blood just excited him.

He looked around, finding that he was in a field.
It was valuable to mention that the field had corpses scattered all around it.
He recognized the majority of them. Roman, Virgil, Patton, even Thomas.
He assumed that he had viciously murdered all of them.
He wanted to test if he had dialogue, when a scream behind him caught his attention.
It was Janus, backing away from him with wide eyes.
"Y-You killed them!" He yelled, pointing at Remus.
He looked at the sword in his hands. "Looks like I did." He said. Sweet, no dialogue.
"You murderer! G-Get away from me!" Janus turned and began running away.
Without warning, his body began chasing after him.
It wasn't often when the Imagination took full control over his body, so it caught Remus off guard.
He caught up to Janus, grabbed his wrist, and spun him around.
The next moment, his sword had been impaled through Janus' body.
Janus' eyes widened as blood spilled over his lips. He looked at Remus in horror, before the life drained out of his eyes and he slumped to the ground.
Remus pulled the sword out of his corpse, watching as the blood trickled down it.
The dream faded away, but the sword didn't.
What could that dream have meant?
---
Remus popped up in his room, putting the sword on his weapons rack.
He took a deep breath. He was going to give Roman an answer today.
He was finally going to get what he wanted.

My House of Horrors
The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. “Landlord, is this what you meant by ‘the house can be a little crowded at night’‽”

The times and struggle of a orc cook in the Demon Lord's army. (On Hiatus due to reasons seen in summary)
Title needed a change. So a full honest update to you all who are reading and following this story. I'm putting this story on a Hiatus not only because of I'm trying to improve my spelling and grammer (which is slow going) but also due to other reasons listed down below. 1) The story is getting a full re-write as these last months have given me time to see what I have already writen and what else I have planned is not gonna work no matter how much I've tried with what I call 'test chapters' to see how what works or not. 2) I don't really have the time to write, mainly thanks to life deciding to throw a bunch of stuff and leaving me exhausted both mentally and physically. And what little free time I have is barely enough for me to do anything that other than sleep or play a game for maybe 15 min. 3) I have a job and bills to pay. Some of which are overdue. It also dose not help that thanks to the new inflations in prices, I've been struggling to get things in order. So now you all know. Once things have calmed down and gotten somewhat in order again, I'll be posting the new first chapter as soon as I can along with a new summary for the story. Until then, I hope you all have a nice day and enjoy all the other stories you can find around this wonderful site.

Endsworld
This entire story is basically just me, having seen a piece of art on Tumblr, rereading Gerard Way's The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys and getting an idea that may or may not be a good thing?Set in a futuristic world similar to the one in Killjoys, but a bit less cynical. (If that makes sense)Please note that I've done absolutely no planning for this, have no idea when it will update or where I'm going, and the only ships in it are the ones that are confirmed to be canon. This means only Paultryck and Kim&Katya, whose ship name I don't know, and from what I've heard, Eduardo&Laurel is also canon(?), though I'm not sure if the neighbors will actually be in this much. Again, haven't planned anything!All I can say for sure is I won't kill any of the main cast, and this will revolve around the original four, namely Edd, Tom, Matt and Tord, with pre-The End designs (read as, "I like edgy Tord with darker hair"). Essentially it's their designs from Spares.Rated PG-13 to possibly M depending on where you live for gore/death and swearing-I'm not really one for gruesome details though so I try to keep the gory stuff a bit vague. You can always ask me about how bad it is before reading if you're worried it'll upset you, my inbox is always open.
