"a unicef contribution of 13 cents will feed a child for a month." kelso read.
"man, living in africa must be great. everything's so cheap." kelso said.
"if you ask me, man, unicef's a scam." hyde said.
"if we ask you, everything's a scam." donna said.
"yeah, she's right." isabella said.
"everything is a scam." hyde argued.
"oh, lighten up. remember how much fun halloween used to be? making costumes, trick or treating." eric said.
"what is trick or treating?" fez asked.
"only the best part of halloween." isabella said.
"well, you put on a costume, you to door to door and say, trick or treat, and people give you candy." jackie told him.
"oh, you got to be kidding me. they just give you candy?" fez said.
"the best part of halloween is getting the crap scared out of you. one year i saw the legend of sleepy hollow, i couldn't sleep for, like, a month." eric said making everyone go quiet.
"they give you candy? just like that? no strings?" fez said.
"yes, fez. get over it." donna said.
"hey, eric, you remember when we went to that haunted house one year-" isabella began.
"shut up." eric told her making her laugh.
"hey, you guys, you know what? my church is going a haunted house." jackie said.
"i really don't think anyone's gonna be scared by a bunch of episcopalians." donna said.
"unless they have chainsaws. let's go see the texas chainsaw massacre." kelso said.
"michael, i told you, i don't like texans." jackie said.
"funny, i don't think they like jackie's." isabella said jokingly.
"i know. we could go to old main." eric said.
"our old grammar school?" donna asked.
"yeah, sure, you know. a dark, burnt out, boarded up school. very creepy. we could... you know, we could tell ghost stories." eric said.

"free candy? even if you're not from this country?" fez asked.
"yes!" kelso shouted.
"hey, why'd they burn down the school, anyway?" donna asked.
"oh, they said it was arson." jackie said and everyone looked at hyde.
"what? i was out of town that week." hyde said.
"hmm. how convenient." jackie said.
"so you're telling me that if i showed up at someone's house and say, trick or treat, they'll give me a free piece of candy?" fez asked.
"yes!" everyone shouted.
"oh, i don't believe you." fez said.
after that, they got fez a batman costume and took him to get some candy.
"trick or treat." fez said as the person put an apple in his pillow case.
"an apple? where's my candy, you son of a bitch?" fez asked before the door slammed in his face.

the gang went to the movies and isabella sat between hyde and fez.
"man, she deserved it. she had sex. and like all movie sluts before her, she must die." hyde said.
"fez, are you scared?" isabella asked seeing the look on his face.
"no. she was about to take her shirt off." fez said before isabella threw popcorn at him.
-
after the movie, everyone went into the old school.
"look at this dump. no wonder hyde tried to burn it down." fez said.
"you know, fez, a man died in that fire. a gym teacher. coach... smith. some say his specter still roams the halls to this day." eric said.
"take a la-a-a-p... give me 20. walk it of-f-f-f..." hyde began which freaked out kelso.
"all right, guys, let's just cut it out, okay? you're scaring the women." kelso said.
"the only scared woman i see is you, kelso." isabella said.
"am not." kelso said.
all the sudden, one of the windows made a noise and kelso freaked out.

"out of my way!" kelso shouted as he pushed jackie to run away.
"kelso, it was the window." hyde told him.
"yeah, i knew that." kelso said.
"out of my way?" jackie said.
"no, i didn't say that." kelso said.
"yes, you did, just before you knocked her over." fez said.
"no. i... i was protecting you." kelso said.
"protecting me?" jackie asked.
"yeah. i was trying to draw the ghosts away from you. ghosts are attracted to movement. that's a scientific fact." kelso told her.
"you know what? i don't care. you're an idiot, and science is stupid! girls, let's go." jackie said stomping away.
"damn it." isabella said.
"gee, wonder what we're gonna talk about." donna said.
"good one." isabella said laughing at donna.
"god, i can't believe michael pushed me out of the way like that." jackie said.
"me neither. i figured he'd use you as a human shield." donna said.
"donna, the most noble thing a man can do is lay down his life for a woman he loves. ideally, while she's still young and can remarry." jackie said.
"that was oddly specific." isabella said.
"do you know who protected me there? fez." jackie said.
"well, he had to. he's batman." donna replied.
-
"hey, guys, we found something scary." donna said as the girls walked into the room where the guys were.
"yeah, it was in the principals office." jackie said.
"oh, my god. those look like... like..." eric said.
"they are. our permanent records." donna said.
"wow! our permanent records. uh, you know what? they probably left these here after the school burned down." kelso said.
"hey. pinciotti, donna. well... looks like someone we know had a real hard time keeping their clothes on in kindergarten." hyde said.
"what? it was just a stupid phase." donna said.
"i'm sure glad that's over." eric said sarcastically.
"oh, listen to this. i fear that despite steven's high IQ, he's a born troublemaker and is destined to be the smartest man in his cell block." kelso read.
"not that far off." isabella said.
"what? they couldn't have known that in second grade. steven willfully and maliciously destroyed isabella ramirez's shoe box diorama of the four food groups." hyde read.
"that was you!" isabella shouted.
"you're a monster. a horrible, horrible monster." donna said.
"yeah, real funny, but i didn't do it." hyde said.
"you know what's really funny, hyde?" eric asked.
"what, forman?" hyde asked.
"heh, heh. i broke the diorama." eric said.
"you?" hyde and isabella said.
"bella's was better than mine. i had to smash it. i left out dairy." eric said.
"how could you?" isabella said.
"you know, that's when everybody turned against me. they pegged me as a bad kid. and once that happens, you're labeled forever. you ruined my life, forman." hyde said.
"no he didn't. hyde, no offense, but with an alcoholic mom and an absent dad, you were bound to end up in jail sooner or later." jackie said making hyde glare at her.
"hyde, i said, no offense." jackie said.
"yeah, right. let's see what that file says about you, jackie." hyde said.
"go ahead. i have a perfect record." jackie said.
hyde picked up jackie's file and he let out a laugh.
"what?" isabella asked him.
"would anybody like to know what jackie's middle name is?" hyde asked before jackie let out a scream.
"jackie's middle name is..." hyde began.
"no!" jackie shouted before hitting hyde with the file.
"i hate you!" jackie said.
"it's beulah." hyde said.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

The Dead Lands
Jaden Harris is a professional card player, playing the trading card game Magigio. That is until he wakes up drunk in a field with no idea where he is. The addition of a shy french maiden who barely speaks english, and a fiery red-head with a black belt compound his problems. Not to mention that the world has ended, and the afterlife is run by a cartoon paperclip. Will Jaden be able to survive the end of the world, learn magic, and deal with the cruel whims of a sarcastically cheerful god-like being?

I apologize for any spelling/grammar issues, they'll be sorted out when my editor/wife does the editing. Extra note: the stat pages are intended to be red, but there is no color option on the text editor for this website. As a result, they default to black.

Now, what if that same person told you that there existed a race that lived outside all dimensions? A race so powerful that, instead of being forced to play along with the rules of your own dimension, they could rewrite all aspects of reality with only a thought. Of course, you would laugh at them. I did too. Then I broke reality the next day. Pictures are not mine.
