《Fandom Imagines and Preferences V》John Denham- Concussion (c)

"Abs, you need to be back at work in a minute, but I'll cover for you for now," Zoe stated. "Don't push it though."
Zoe slipped out of the curtain leaving you and Abs alone in the cubicle. Looking over at your boyfriend, you noticed his concerned expression having not faltered even though a doctor whom he trusted had already proved that you were going to be perfectly fine.
"Stop looking at me like that," you frowned, moving the ice pack on your head to stop it from slipping as it had moments before.
"I can't help if I'm worried about you," he said softly, holding onto your hand and giving it a firm squeeze.
"You have no reason to worry John," you assured him. "It's just a mild concussion. Zoe even said that she would let me stay in this bed for observation for an hour or two. I'm going to be perfectly fine."
He didn't look certain. He kept hold of your hand even though he knew that he needed to head back to work.
"What if she missed something?" He asked. "What if it isn't just a concussion and it's something more serious."
You shook your head, instantly wincing and regretting your decision to move your head. Attempting to assure him that you were fine, you tried to laugh it off even though it was clearly a little forced due to your pain.
"I fell over and smacked my head off the wall. I'm just stupid and clumsy, there's nothing else to it John," you stated.
"It's not a joke," he frowned. "I don't know what I would do if something were to happen to you."
Gently tugging his hand, you made him move close to you so that you could press your lips to his, hoping that would convince him even a little.

"I promise you that I am going to be okay John. Now you need to go back to work. You can come and check up on me when you have a free moment but if something were to happen to me, then I am in the right place. There are doctors and nurses everywhere and you are also here to protect me."
He was reluctant but nodded his head, knowing he didn't really have a choice and would need to return to work now anyway.
"Just keep resting, please," he said softly. "Promise me."
"I promise," you smiled. "Now go and work."
"I'll be back soon."
He pressed a kiss to your forehead before leaving you in the cubicle alone.

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5

To Cross the Threshold
What would one do, when a star crashes into the Earth? Die, of course! Except, in Joseph's case, it was all wrong. He met face-to-face with the Light, got the program forced into his brain, and woke up far, far away from his small insignificant hometown, in the ethereal endless void, full of stars and vigour, guns and loot, Daemons and Skills! From there on out, he got volunteered into the crew of the Morning Star, the pirate ship he was unfortunate enough to stumble upon. With a tree for the Captain, a dragoncat for the Quartermaster, and a human, equal in height and width, as the Cook, he sets sail across the mysterious and hostile Threshold, filled with fierce abominations, rich Ghosts, and patriotic soldiers from the Glorious Metal Empire, all to figure out what the Light has brought upon his Earth that day, and to find his way back home. Warning - English is not my first language, so I apologize in advance for any inconsistencies and grammar mistakes. Please, do point them out when you find some. Updates three days a week - Monday, Wednesday, Friday. This book is about the slice-of-life-ish lighthearted adventures of Joseph and Co. Just one long bumpy road, inspired by old-school RPGs.

Ever since humans started traveling through space, that opened millions of new opportunities for Fate to make the human soulmates meet.However, because of her strange behaviour Fate made too many mistakes.After that, Fate made what she thought, was a good move. What she didn't count on was that the good move she made knew that you can cheat fate. One and his crew don't know how ironic it is that she chose them to make her good move. ------------------------------- I didn't use any movies, books or series for inspiration the story is my original work. This is just the result of my weird imagination and brain telling me what to write. I hope you liked it :) It’s just a story, like all of my other stores. It doesn’t have a deeper spiritual, moral or ethical meaning.
