Peter's POV:
I feel bad. I shouldn't have walked out. He is just constantly in my face about this sort of stuff. I know he's my dad and he cares about me. But it just gets under my skin. He can't tell me what to do anymore. I'm not a little kid.
I angrily kick pebbles and flattened cans across the sidewalk as I made my way to the bus stop. Usually I don't take the bus, to save myself from the insults and general harassment. But I couldn't sit in a car with dad. Either of them to be honest.
Ten minutes pass by. The bus slowly chugs its way round the corner and stops infront of me. The doors burst open, giving a hiss. I get on and sit right at the front. I plug in my earbuds and blast rock music to drown out the jeers coming from further back.
This isn't going to be fun.
I close my eyes and will the bus to go faster. A painful 30 minutes went by before the bus finally stopped at school. As soon as the doors opened I darted of the bus and straight into school.
First day at a new school. No pressure, Wilson. No pressure at all.
Well there is some pressure
'Both of you shut up." I whisper under my breath. I tried to be discreet but I still got a few stares. I will not be known as the crazy kid. No way.
I make my way into the huge school building and try to find my locker.
'254. 254. 25-' my thoughts were cut of my a sudden collision. I look down to see a small brown haired boy rubbing his head. He looked mad. Shit Wade, already. You only just got here.

I extend my hand to help him up. He looks at my hand, then at me. His eyes were a beautiful hazel colour. They were glossed over with tears. After a moment of eye contact the boy swatted my hand away and stood up unaided.
I shake my head slightly to dull the voices. I felt hurt.
Without a word the boy pushed past me. I opened my mouth to say sorry but by the time I turned round he had vanished into the crowd of students.
Great first impression Wade. Real great.
You didn't even get his name.
I was so focused on getting to class I wasn't looking where I was going. I had crashed into a strong, muscular body, sending my flying backwards. I landed on the floor with a thud.
"Ow." I moaned as I rubbed my temples. People began to crowd round us. A hand had been extended out to me.
I look at the hand, then up to find a kind, slightly worried face staring at me. His sparkling blue eyes were so forgiving. It made me melt.
I go to reach for his hand, when I spot Flash out the corner of my eye. He is heading towards me, an evil smirk plastered on his face. Without thinking a swat the hand away, pick up my bags and push by the mystery boy.
"Well done, Peter." I thought sarcastically as I sped down the corridor

The Dog with a Chair
As of now, this story is dropped. It was an excellent learning experience, but the quality suffered too much from me trying new things for me to continue in good concience. Thanks to anyone that read it. I'm leaving this story up as a record of my first ever attempt at publishing something I've wrote. To any new writers out there, remember that even if the stuff you write is trash, you can still learn a lot from writing it. - November 17th 2020 Guy gets involved in advocacy for civil engineering projects, then gets pulled into an interdimensional war. Third person with a focus on one main character (Stanley) with the occasional point of view from another character important to story progression. Writing style tends to shift early on as I figure out how to write (this is my first book). Still learning, hoping to improve. Current style choice is to have a focus on character dialogue/actions with interspersed internal monologue in italics. No current end is set for the story, with the primary goal of this project being to learn to express myself in a written format. Storyline is kept as consistent as practical while covering things I find interesting. Governmental systems are mentioned, but not explained in extreme detail. Sci fi elements are used to reinforce and guide plot progression as I'm able. Personal goals belonging to each character are in the process of being developed, with the hope that they will support or oppose each other in interesting ways later on. Hope you enjoy :)

Modded Skyr*m: Real Life Edition
It seems that I died while I was playing VR Skyr*m. The next thing I knew, I was standing in front of the middle-aged man who called himself The Overlord of Dremora and Dragons. He told me they were releasing Skyr*m: Real-Life Edition. However, you have to be dead first to play it, and I was chosen as a 'beta tester' of sorts. I found myself in a semi-realistic (thanks to mods) world, and I want to have fun and relax for the rest of my life, and maybe get back to Earth. There's just a small *RAWR* problem. Setting: This happens within the world in The Legend of the Fake Hero, specifically two arcs from now. About: I am writing this for fun as a side project. I intend this to be semi-interactive as I will have polls where readers can influence the book's direction. I have the final say because I believe that too many cooks in the kitchen are not a good thing. The plan is to write it in parts that are around 1-2k words. Typically around every 3 to 6 parts, they will be combined into a finalized chapter and re-edited for a smoother read. Release schedule: When I feel like it. I'll be more inclined to write if there is more interaction, both in comments and polls, towards the story. However, I will be focusing on The Legend of the Fake Hero because that is something I own entirely and enjoy. I will try to do consistent uploads. Disclaimer: This work falls under fair use as it is a partial parity, does not affect the value of the original work, is an original story within the setting (within my setting), and is not being sold. All IP belongs to their respective owners (including myself). Currently uploading on Scribble Hub and Royal Road under the same username.
