《Someone Under Stress Meets Someone Looking Pretty (Lin-Manuel Miranda X Reader)》Freestyle Love Supreme
Advertisement
"Yo, Yo,
Check it.
My name is Lin-Manuel Miranda.
'Bout to wreck it,
Put your hands up.
My main man Tommy on the drums,
Yo boy on the vocals,
My lover (y/n) here
Just wants to go to
Barns and Nobles!
Spitting fire with these bars,
Cuz I can.
Tommy Kail popping beats,
On trash cans.
Leaving my makers mark on
this scene,
Making rap music in a
park of green,
We don't need snare drums
Or a microphone, yo.
All I needs a sick beat
And some time, yo
To Formulate some rhymes, so I can
Shoot this track up like Vicodin
Oh!"
Suddenly, the table has flipped and Tommy takes the 'mic':
"Oh!
My name is Tommy Kail.
Lyrics so ill, wind up in jail.
But that ain't no problem
Cuz I
I got those washingtons for
the bail.
I've been rapping alone in
this park,
From dust,
until dark.
Never heard a boy come round
Like Lin-Manuel Miranda.
Lin-Miranda Manuel, man well,
The boy can rap but can he beat real.
This beat real.
This beat will,
Steal your rhyme schemes and your treasury bill."
"What?" Yells Lin. Tommy stops the beat and fist bumps Lin saying, "So you can spit?" Lin shrugs, animatedly, "I guess I can." Tommy laughs, "Get outta here man, your girl looks half frozen. But hey," He slips Lin a business card, "You should come by our place. I might even hand you a mic."
Red as a beet, you pull Lin away from the man as they laugh. Lin waves goodbye to the percussionist freestyler and hands you the card, which reads:
FREESTYLE LOVE SUPREME:
LIVE AT KOOL KATZ ON KAMPUS TUESDAYS, THURSDAYS, AND SATURDAY NIGHTS
Despite your blushing, you really are amazed at Lin's free styling abilities. "Where'd you learn how to do that?" You say, your breath billowing.

Lin smiles and looks into the distance, as if he sees things other than the college campus, "Oh just a little place called Washington Heights, New York City." "New York City?" You say, surprised, "You'd said you moved here from a city, but I didn't know you lived in NewYork City! Why would you ever leave?" Lin smiles sadly and shrugs, "I didn't really have a choice."
You are about to say something else, but then you realize you've arrived at the large book store. "Hey," You say. "There's-" Lin is already bounding forward towards the doors. "Come on!" He says, grabbing your hand and sprinting through the doors.
Once inside, Lin stands very still, taking in the sights of the two-story multimedia literature collection. "Oh wow!" He says, before releasing your hand and hopping towards the nearest set of shelves. He bounces from section to section, scouring the book backs for titles he deems "Interesting enough to tell (y/n) about".
Every few minutes you hear an excited: "(Y/N)! (Y/N)! (Y/N)!"
"Yes Lin?" You say, looking up from whatever text you're thumbing through, and he'll show you a new manga, or something Harry Potter related or- "Sailing for Dummies? Lin, you realize we don't live anywhere near the ocean." "Awe, but (y/nnnnnnn)!" "No! We are not buying this." You put the book down as Lin pouts for 2.5 secs before racing upstairs.
You follow him up, and find him thumbing through some boxes of records. "(Y/n), looks at these!" Lin says, holding up a couple of records, "Biggie, Eminem, Ja Rule... all the goodies, man!"
You smile and shake your head as he beams, holding the records close to his chest. "Let's buy 'em." You say, holding up the $100 gift card. Lin takes the gift card out of your hand, wide eyed, "One-Hundred bucks? Whats it for?" You shrug, "Birthday gift from my parents. They sent it so I could buy a textbook but I already have the ones I need to finish out this semester." "Oh," Says Lin, "But what about next semester?"

You sigh, adjust your back pack and say, "I'm not staying here for another semester. This is my last one." Lin's mouth drops open, his face falls. "Oh."
You both stand there, conscious of the space between you, not sure whether to close it in an embrace or let it stay. Lin opens his mouth to say, "But, I don't-" You cut him off with, "Pick a few records, we'll add them to the books we've got, and we can go check out."
You walk downstairs and avoid Lin's eyes through the check-out line. When you step outside, you walk quickly, as Lin trails behind.
Wrestling with your thoughts you make your way to the park and take a wrong turn on a path, one that leads to a red bridge overlooking a pond. Silhouettes of koi move lazily in the depths of the brown water. You pause for a moment at the top the bridge, and let the wind whip at your hair.
You feel a shaking hand grasp your arm and you see Lin next to you, in distress. You want to comfort him, but you know nothing you can say could make this better. "I," Lin starts, he looks down, "I know you've got a plan but... where do I fit into it?" You feel tears brimming in your eyes, "I, I don't know." Lin blinks tears out of his own eyes, "We don't have to know, right now. All I need to know is, do you want to be with me?"
Your throat goes dry, you're tongue is tied, you know the words you'd say if you could speak but you can't do you don't. You thrust yourself into his arms and you sob. He holds you. An arm around your waist and another around your head. He holds you, and supports you as the wind picks up around you.
When you can, you say, "I love you."
He squeezes you tighter, and whispers in the most beautiful voice:
"I love you too."

The General Core {The Sphere}
The life cycle in the Sphere is on the brink of collapse because one of its elements, the Dungeons, have been exploited too much by the mortals. The group who created the Sphere already tried and failed with several modifications, because the original computer-like dungeon cores are too inflexible to handle changing approaches. So they try another type of solution – taking souls from other worlds to try to find a solution before the Sphere Cycle breaks down completely. The General was one of the best soldiers of his world, rising from the ranks of a private through Officer School to the highest command with honors. But when his world faced a zombie apocalypse, even that was not enough and he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now he is asked for a repeat performance of planning and controlling a dungeon and its spawns in a world that he knows nothing about… But what is the Sphere really? What is that [Xenotic conversion] he has to go through to even enter the Sphere? Something is really strange and he will have to find out what is going on to get to his promised rewards – whatever they will be. Being a soul in a dungeon core means that the General has better chances of finding hints to the truth about the sphere – a knowledge that would help him survive. And no, the sphere is NOT a virtual reality – the key to its secrets is the place where it was physically constructed (Author’s hint). This is a dungeon core story - but there are quite a number of things that I will do differently than common to those stories. 1) I will describe the floors when they are explored, NOT when they are build. Yes, that will mean it will take longer to get to those parts - but I think describing floors both when they are build and when they are explored destroys quite a lot of chances for suspense when adventurers enter the dungeon. After all, if you as the reader already know where the traps are, then you can't really be surprised when the surfacers encounter them. 2) How the world works (and how not) is an integral part of the story, so it will be explained I'm a world-builder first and the Sphere is NOT a regular world (as hinted in the synopsis above). Things will work differently than in your 08/15 default dungeon core stories - as the General and Gunny have already learned in the second arc (and more of that is already scheduled for the next weeks (July/Aug 2019) when the Sky Arrows continue to explore and evaluate that strange dungeon) If you don't like these premises, then I'm sure you'll find a lot of other Dungeon Core stories more to your liking. But if you are interested in more than "Dungeon builds another room and corridor in medieval earth" and are not afraid of a longer and slower story, then go on. I have two more stories in the Sphere, although they both have lower priority than this one: Shaleen the Wanderer (Adventurer, NSFW) (currently on hold after some chapters) Info's on the Sphere (System Docu and Short Stories) (irregular updates when needed) Current Status reports have been moved to a new discord server: https://discord.gg/EaHkXCfm9y

Realizing the need for him to find answers, Shay leads Mason to the Department of Reincarnation, a bureaucratic atrocity that helps people to "move on."

8 69Escalodia - The Dark Age
A world called Escalodia, a place where all nations, namely Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Orcs and Giants live side by side and make peace. But, everything changed and war broke out everywhere, resulting in unrest and political instability across the state. And there is almost no way to restore the peace. Then came the prophecy that said that everything would return to normal and there would be someone who could bear the burden but if he took the wrong step then the future of the world would be no more. Will he be able to restore that peace or will the future of the world be destroyed by him as well? Could he be as predicted before ? This story already post on Storial (Indonesian Version) and Wattpad too.
8 89Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).
