"you might want to wake up" i heard Robyn say
"shit when did i fall asleep"
"as soon as we left" she said not once looking at me
"that's uh that's a nice watch" I said noticing it perfectly placed on her arm. Not too tight, but not too loose. Perfect
She didn't even say anything she just carried on driving until we pulled into the parking lot.
I'm getting second thoughts about her, at first I thought she was going to be welcoming and warm but she's the opposite.
I was surprised she even opened the door for me but then again, I think that's part of the job.
We walked into the building and my god did she look intimidating next to me. I went over to the front desk to be told they were waiting for me on the third floor.
"elevator's this way" Robyn said guiding me
As we stepped in i went towards the back and Robyn stood in the middle looking sternly at the door. Her posture was strict, slightly parted feet and her right hand gripped onto her left wrist.
"Robyn"
"mm?"
I didn't even know what to say or why I said her name if i'm being honest. She's a completely different person from when I met her a short time ago. Maybe she just takes her job seriously? How the fuck do I make conversation with someone who literally looks like they are about to kill anyone.
"you can relax.. you know" i almost whispered
"i'm doing my job" she said almost annoyed still not looking at me
"you can at least act like i'm a human being" i huffed
"are you?" she turned her head slightly waiting for an answer that I didn't in fact have. "that's what i thought" she said turning her head back

I was just about to say something when the doors opened and I had to go to my meeting
What does she mean am I human?
My meeting felt like a blur really. I never pay attention in them so I'm glad Robyn was there to take note of when I would be needed because I have no clue.
"can I ask you something" I mumbled a little into our awkward drive home. Well, it was awkward to me.
She didn't answer, she knew full well I would ask her anyway with or without permission
"how come your not in like a suit you know like body guard type shit" i asked
"did your other body guard wear one?"
"i mean.. no, but i-"
"that shit is for movies" she cut me off "the suit shows strength which invites challenge, and challenge insights conflict and conflict.. it breathes catastrophe" she carries on "the only way to keep you safe is to not keep you safe"
"so.. by showing your just like everyone else if someone wear to attack they wouldn't see it coming?" i asked
"something like that" she mumbled

Rise for the Sky [Slow-Pace Multi-Lead Dungeon Crawler]
Sixty people have awoken at the bottom of a one hundred floor dungeon. Together they must confront the terror of monsters and seek the answers to why they are here. Expectations: This story is written from multiple perspectives, male and female. Most chapters are a single person, but there will be chapters where there are a couple of quick scenes with different people. The story does take place in a dungeon, but there is no leveling system. This a realistic take on the classic litRPG and iskai tropes written like a traditional novel. There is a profanity warning because I wish to be natural with how people talk and cursing is a thing people do. So it will happen where it makes sense. Gore is warned because this is a realistic take, and people will be torn apart by monsters. I don't plan to be overly detailed with it but be warned it will happen. Updates Every Monday. Chapters will be between 3,000 to 5,000 words. Fulfill Patreon goals to increase updates

Meg The Heavenly Merchant
Updates once a week.(This is a rough draft) Author's Note: This story has grown in ways I did not predict and while it still features a merchant those aspects have gotten less page time than the fighting and romance elements. I have updated the description to represent the story better) For the past fourteen years Meg has dedicated herself to walking the path of a Heavenly Dragon Knight in her favorite videogame, Tattered Realms:Chaos Age. But now the game is shutting down and everyone wants to know what she plans to do for the sequel. Meg isn't sure at first. She knows only that she yearns for the days when she could lose herself in a game without worrying about boss strategies and crushing her rivals. And when her friend suggests playing a merchant her heart is filled with the same wanderlust and inspiration that launched her gaming career in the first place. But if she isn't dominating dungeons and setting records will people still watch her play? And can she really walk away from all the fighting for a quiet life of buying and selling?
