《SandersSides Oneshots》His Name
Advertisement
He didn't get to reveal his own name.
That opportunity and choice was taken away from him, the option to tell everybody his name on his own terms, in his own time. The choice was ripped away from him.
Which was fine, everybody would have found out sooner or later, right? But still... a part of Logan wishes he could have chosen. Chosen when to reveal his name. It's silly, it's a trivial matter that holds no importance, and he doesn't really know why it hurts because it's silly to be upset over something so small, but it does.
It hurts that he didn't have a choice to tell everybody on his own terms. That he didn't get to choose when. Maybe he wanted to wait, wanted for it to mean something. Because it hadn't meant anything, it hadn't been important! It had been revealed in an insignificant moment, just blurted out, meaningless. His name, the one thing he had that was only his, Logan's, well, most prized possession, was just offhandedly mentioned. And that was it. No dramatic reveal, not that he would have really wanted it to be too extravagant. No hype or tension or excitement, because maybe it would have been nice to have people... care about him.
It would have felt nice, maybe been reassuring, to have people want to know something about him, be excited about him. It would have been a nice change. Instead it was just flippantly mentioned at the end of the video, and not even by him! he didn't hold it against Patton, he couldn't, but he would have liked to tell Thomas himself. He would have liked to tell the millions of viewers himself. Because it was his thing, not anybody else's, and it was important to him!
Why did everybody else get reveal their names on their own? Why wasn't he... why wasn't he important enough to do that? Liked enough? Good enough? Why was he getting so upset over this, he was being unreasonable, it's stupid, he should definitely not have tears in his eyes over such a trivial matter.

But it just wasn't fair.
He didn't get the choice in the closest thing to him. Didn't get to tell everybody his closest secret by himself. It was thrown out there like it meant nothing, which technically it didn't, but it hurt him. It hurt that his name didn't mean anything, that he was unimportant, that he didn't have any choice or say in the matter, or that he didn't get to tell anybody his most important secret, or that the very option was just ripped out of his hands and that he didn't get to choose to tell them, wasn't able to wait until he was feeling more secure and trusted the others more and knew that he wanted to reveal it or that he and his name seemed unimportant or that he didn't .. that he wasn't... that he couldn't... that nobody seemed to care.
The tears in his eyes slipped out.

Paladin
When the first derelict alien spacecraft fell to Earth, humanity took what was found in it and propelled themselves to new heights. In their new Golden Age, humanity developed technology that they had only dreamed about. The following years saw hundreds more ships crash into the planet, spurring even greater technological leaps. An unassuming spacecraft, one of the dozens that fell yearly, descended on Siberia in 2021. The world took no particular notice of it. However, this one contained something beyond the miraculous technology that had made humans so prosperous. Three years later, in a top-secret underground facility in eastern Colorado, the automated construction of an army of Paladin Mobile Infantry Suits was underway. With this new, state-of-the-art weaponry, the military would turn the tide against the alien incursion that was consuming the planet. Humanity fell before that could happen. Sam was an engineer responsible for overseeing the facility. Now alone, he lives in utter boredom and near insanity, his only company the base’s pseudo AI and an army of empty Paladins. With the world gone to hell around him, and the things that caused it still living above, he decides that he is much better off staying exactly where he is. Unfortunately for him, that is no longer an option. This is the first novel I've written. The first fifteen or so chapters are going to be a little slower. I want there to be time to get to know the characters before they start blowing stuff up. Also, though the MC will be strong relative to the world, he won't be OP, and won't win every fight. Not every fight will be physical either. Currently, I'm aiming for something like 5 fairly short chapters a week, after the introduction part is done, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I've made mistakes!
