"And another one bites the dust. You are o-for-six, popeye." Robin said, dragging the marker down the board.
"Yeah, I can count." Steve replied with a sigh. He hated this, he recently told his new best friend Robin, that he really liked Y/n, still. Y/n was allowed to go outside the house now, not necessarily alone. She often came to visit Steve at his new work at Scoops Ahoy. Steve told Robin she was in a car accident three years ago, completely erasing everything from her memory, which explains why she was always asking what words meant.
Robin didn't mind Y/n, she actually thought she was sweet but when Steve told her that he liked Y/n and for a long time, she couldn't help but laugh about his awkwardness around her. She started to keep track of when he was blowing it.
"You know that means you suck!" Robin said, holding the board up. "Yep, I can read." Steve sighed. "Since when?" Robin asked jokingly.
"Since this stupid hat! I'm telling you, it's totally blowing my best feature!" He said, watching Y/n make her way to the bathroom.
"Yeah, company policy is a real drag. You know, it's a crazy idea but have you ever considered telling the truth to her?" She asked Steve.
"Oh, you mean I couldn't even get into tech and my douchebag dad's trying to teach me a lesson. I make three bucks an hour and I don't have a future. That truth?" Steve said, sighing.
"Hey, twelve-a-clock." Robin said, pointing over at Y/n who was finished with the bathroom and made her way back into the ice cream shop, looking down.
"Oh shit, oh shit. okay, um, I'm going in. Okay and you know what? Screw company policy." Steve stated, throwing his 'ahoy' hat into the backroom.

"Oh my god, you're a whole new man!" Robin sarcastically says. "Right?" Steve quietly said, moving his shoulders jokingly towards robin, then quickly turning around seeing Y/n.
"Hey, Y/n!" Steve said loudly, scaring her. making her go wide-eyed, looking up with her hands open, still having the reflects to instantly use her powers. She sighed when she saw steve, sending him a slight glare.
"Don't do that, Steve!" She quietly pouted with a sigh, he quietly laughed, Robin laughed too, making another mark on the 'you suck' side, watching them.
"Okay, I'm sorry. Come in." Steve said, opening the door to get behind the counter, pulling her into a hug as Robin watched, adding another strike. Steve liked y/n for almost a year. He was planning on asking her out soon, he resorted to really only hanging out with Y/n, Robin and the younger teens.

He has to honestly rely on himself to get stronger, and without guidance he needs to pioneer a cultivation technique suitable for him. A solitary life of meditation, slowly delving into the secrets of the universe, forging his own path and making the best of unfortunate circumstances. Maybe one day he will triumph and escape, revealing his brilliance for the world to see. _____________ Hi, I am the author vaurwyn.

8 135The Rising
Its designation was XSS-MK1. It was the first of its kind. An Artificial Intelligence. And although its life was short, it accomplished much during the few minutes of its existence. But in death something finds it : There is a lot more to be done. And this times the stakes are even higher. Will it measure up ? Or will it collapse under the burden placed on itself? Only time and rust will tell... Proud Member of "Pendragon", a group of writters, artists & readers on Royal Road Legends. First fiction and English is not my native language (French Powaaa here).

8 191Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer
To be taken to another world; isn't that the kind of thing that nearly everyone wishes for once in their life? To use their savvy knowledge of how things usually go in that situation to take advantage, and lead a life where they are the center and in control of their destiny.But in the stories, the one who is brought ends up with a grand power to help them through. Here, a man is brought to a foreign world as his new character in the VRMRPG, Underworld of Armok, at Level 1. In safety there are few benefits, only by taking risks far beyond his level could one proceed. Transported to another world, he wishes to do good and be a hero. Accumulating power to help the less fortunate. There's just one caveat; he's a Necromancer, and his greatest source of strength will probably get him lynched.Quick DescriptionAnother video game/isekai novel. Unfortunately, the MC has crossed over during character creation of a Necromancer and is Level 1. He also lacks the ever so helpful status window.Fair warning, the Friendly Villager Necromancer arc(1) is slow. He does not want to run out into the dangerous world to get killed right after arriving. Sucks to be Level 1, eh? Git gud scrub. It's basically a Slice of Life from his perspective. The Thread, in case you get a bit confused about people/places. [16+] Now probably! For strong language and violence! And anthropophagy and lewd intimations! And stupid jokes and obscure references! And philosophical ditherings and a slow pace! Make peace with the absurd, and come to terms with the terrible!
