《Outcasts》A Dance or Two
Advertisement
After killing nearly fourty ghosts, I went to the cafe and just rested for an hour. I was sick of killing ghosts, but if I quit I'll be suspected of having a ghost in my house, which I do, and I'll be jailed! Gosh I worry for Norton every single day..Hoping he's alright. So, I got off early and saw that Norton was peacefully reading a book
"I told you to hide!" I yelled as he closed the book
"I'm sorry that this book is so damn interesting!" Norton yelled back as he headed upstairs. "Jeez."
I decided to go upstairs along with him and change out of my clothing, not realizing Norton was staring right at me
"I didnt know you were so strong.." Norton smirked. "Those scars though, what happened.."
"Get out. Now." I demanded as Norton flew out quickly. I do feel bad, but he can't just stand there and watch me change! How perverted....What's wrong with him?
"Okay, you can come in now."
"Thanks, sorry I was just standing theI apologize for barging in, I didnt think straight." Norton said as he sat down on the couch with some snacks.
"Thats fine, I've been through hell and back and much worse so your fine." I sighed as I turned on some music on my phonograph and danced with myself. It was a slow and peaceful melody, compared to the one Norton usually plays.
"Mind if I dance with you?" Norton smiled as he held my hand. I got a bit flustered and backed away, but I backed in front of Norton and held one hand and one on his invisible waist and vice versa. We danced to the melody of the song, and we just hummed to the tune.
"I've never danced with someone before.." I said as I looked away from Norton, clearly flustered still since these odd feelings with a man arent my usual self. I don't develop feelings this quick, do I? How odd..Romance is very, very weird to me..
"Darling, your quite good at dancing." Norton smiled.
"Dont call me darling.." I blushed as he caressed my face and I quickly slapped his hand and looked away. "I'll let you know when I'm comfortable with you doing that.."
"Ah, sorry for not respecing your boundaries, Andy!" Norton worried. "Should we continue to dance?"
"Sure. I wouldnt mind." I said as I looked back at him and continued to dance. I felt at ease and calm with him. He did make me feel a bit uneasy, but thats because I had just met him a few days ago and already were pretty close. Is that bad to get this close to someone this quick? Well, I just continued to dance to the melody until seven and got myself something to eat as well as something for Norton, but he wasnt hungry.

"Im fine, thank you though." Norton smiled as he sat down on the couch
"Say, can I tell you something?" I asked. "Its quite important.."
"Of course, just sit down here and tell me!" Norton smiled as I sat down next to his invisible body. Is this seriously what I am gonna do? Tell a dead man I love them, even though it's forbidden and I'd be sent to hell for it? Yeah, I only have one shot at life so I should just tell him.
"Well, gosh how do I tell you.." I worried as I put my hands on Norton's face and sat on top of him. It felt like I was sitting on a real person because of how scarily visible yet invisible Norton is.
"Oh, so you like me?" Norton smirked.
Shit. He knew. "Yeah. I do. Now let me kiss your dead body." I whispered as I leaned into kiss Norton. It felt magical and scary considering he's a ghost. Tongues touching and clutching onto each others backs. I felt sinful, I hated and loved it.
"I have to get ready to sleep, want to come with me?" I whispered with a heavy breath. "God for a ghost, you're a great kisser..."
"Yeah, I wouldn't mind, Andrew." Norton replied as he followed me to his room. I changed in front of him, but he hid under the bed until he saw I was finished and then floated on to the bed. "Gosh you're gorgeous."
"You are, not me. I'm the reincarnation of Satan himself..." I shrugged as I held Norton tightly. "I wish you were alive so I could endlessly kiss you.."
"Well even if Im dead, you can right now." Norton giggled. "Do it, I dare you." As he said that, I reached towards him and aggressively kissed him and he did so too, rough kisses, bites all over my shoulders and chest from a fucking ghost. His bites are sharp, like a Sharks.
"Wow, you're better than I thought for a low-life like you.." Norton breathed. "Jeez my asthma is kicking in, but it aint gonna affect me now since I'm a ghost."
"Don't call me a lowlife." I groaned as I took my shirt off. "Lets just head to sleep, okay?"
"Alrighty." Norton smiled as he cuddled towards me. I felt safe in his arms, even if he is a ghost. I feel safe near him. I sinfully love a man. God, forgive me for my sins. I want to be forgiven for the sins I've committed.

"Goodnight, Andrew." Norton yawned
"Goodnight." I said as I yawned along and fell asleep in his ghostly arms. They grew to be warmer than a normal ghost's hands. This ghost is different from so many ghosts I've encountered. He may be cunning, but he is absolutely amazing and I would be pleased to die if it were to spend all my eternity with Norton. But I won't,I'll be sentenced to Hell.
"Norton, am I gonna go to heaven..." I whispered
"Yes darling, you will. No matter what God says, you're going to heaven." Norton smiled as he gently kissed my forehead. Gosh, I feel love, for the first time in years have I felt this. It feels wonderful, it feels magical...
Norton Campbell. You may be dead but I hold you close to my heart, and I'd love to see you more without fearing I'd die and you get exterminated..Thats my worst nightmare...Seeing someone I care about die in front of me yet again.
Your gonna die alone, that ghost isnt a real person anymore...Your a fucking monster..Satan himself..You should be ashamed for who you chose to love. You should be ashamed!
God damn it not another nightmare about my priest yelling at me if I had confessed my sins..I have these nightmares so frequently, but these havent been that bad..
"Now, its time to permanently blind you...."
He would grab a torch and yank the torch into my eye. I felt agony and pain. My eye was melting and I couldnt stop screaming, the blood pouring from my eyes, oh god it was terrifying
"DONT BURN MY EYE PLEASE...I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE....!!" I yelled into my pillow. I accidentally woke Norton up and I felt my eye swell up
"Jesus what happened?" Norton worried as he put his cold hands around me to comfort me
"Th-the priest...He-he threatened to burn my right eye, the only eye I can see out of if I confessed to him..I confessed to him in my dreams...Please I just dont want to be blind. I want to earn some money to live in a nice house and have a beautiful wife..." I continued to cry as Norton got up and hugged me gently. I felt comfort in him. I love him, but I dont want to. I want to find a beautiful wife and die with her, I dont want to be even more sinful than I already am. I've sold bodies to the black market for money, thats a sin. Ive killed people, thats a sin. Im a sinful man and I wish I werent, but its for the money.
"Even though I'm dead, I'll make sure that never happens. I'll make sure my friends haunt him, curse him." Norton said with a calming voice as he caressed me and eskimo kissed me. I wish he were alive, I wish I got to meet him before he died...
"Dont ever leave me okay? Even if your a ghost..." I cried in his invisible arms.
"I'll never leave you, darling." Norton smiled as he kissed my forehead. "Lets head back to sleep okay?"
As he said that, I cuddled him tightly to bed, and began to sleep on his stomach, which felt odd considering I was sleeping on top of a dead person, but that didnt bother me..I just wanted to be in Norton's arms.. I wanted to be with him in heaven, as a ghost so we dont have to be separated. I want death, but I want to live a full life, gain some money, find a wife, and hope and pray someone loves me as much as Norton loves me....Because even though no one will love a monster like me, I believe I found the one..Even if he's dead, I'll reunite with him one day.
"How sinful Andrew, burn with the flames of hell.."
"But, I love him. I thought God loved everyone no matter what..."
"Except for you, and those other homosexuals."
"B-But.."
"Burn."
I couldnt see anymore. I decided to just, burn. Burn in the flames that the priest had left me.
I didnt want to wake Norton up, so I quietly got out of bed, went downstairs and outside to light a cigar.
"I dont want the priest to know, or for me to accidentally confess to him.." I sobbed. "What if I end up how I imagined in my dream..."
I seriously dont want that to happen, because if so, I'll die. But I'd love to die...I'd be united with Norton...
"I wish he were alive so I would secretly marry the life out of him.." I sobbed to myself. "But I'd get killed. We both would! Gosh life can be truly unfair.."

The Core of a Factory
An abandoned steampunk arms factory, in the middle of a conflict torn former state of the Empire it served, gains a soul. This transforms it into a Lord, capable of turning land into power. Beset by enemies on all sides it must figure out how to win the war its creators lost a century ago. This is a progressive Dungeon Core novel (which is to say the core will progress and expand in scale, eventually) across multiple dimensions with different characteristics (e.g. steampunk, magic, mythological). It has rationalist leanings (paragraphs of reasoning) and litrpg leanings (there are stat blocks). The core game mechanical idea is something like "what if different flavors of magic power actually did come from controlling land" and then the story is: "what if there was a flavorless (artifact deck) dungeon core". Chapters will be relatively short (my aim is that in three column format each would fit on a wide screen monitor), the first few chapters - setting up the main character and mechanics - are currently the longest in the entire series. I write chapters in blocks, and then release them one a weekday (M-F; 6 PM GMT, unless RoyalRoad's publish thing screws up) until I run out. There may be a few days of gaps here and there if someone finds an egregious error I have to re-write around or if I am behind. In general though one can read this once a weekend. I may do slight retconns and edits, I'll make sure to put it in an authors note if I do.
