《YOUTH ⇢ BENNY WEIR》one
Advertisement
Sophia and her younger sister, Jane, were sat in front of the TV watching Jane's favourite film: Dusk. Sophia doesn't like the film at all, she says it's too "romantic and emo for her", but watches it nevertheless because she doesn't want to upset her younger sibling, who was engrossed in it, despite the fact everyone in the family had lost count of how many times she'd watched it.
Ethan, Sophia's younger brother and his dorky best friend: Benny, ran into the kitchen and dumped a load of candy onto the table. The thought of so much candy made her sick to her stomach.
"Look at all this! Did you rob an ice cream truck or something?" Ethan asked Benny.
"Tomorrow we officially join the high school brotherhood." Benny said. "We are men."
Sophia scoffed at Benny's statement, got up and sat opposite him. "What are you two geeks doing?"
"We're making it the Sunday to end all Sunday's!" Ethan replied, eagerly eyeing the candy.
"That's disgusting."
"What is?" Benny asked, with a mouth already full of junk.
I leaned back and shivered. "Nevermind."
"Remember when you put 176 of these in your mouth?" Ethan asked Benny, holding up a large packet of marshmallows.
"It was 186!"
"No, I did 172, you did 176." Ethan argued.
"You barely hit 150!"
They both looked at each other for a moment before diving at the packet of candy, trying to open it. "It's mine!" Benny announced.
"Remember to count them!" Ethan ordered.
"Hey, Ethan, Sophia, do you hear that?" Jane asked us.
Sophia's head snapped towards Jane before listening intently. She shook her head. "No, do you hear anything Eth-" she cut herself off once she looked at her nerd of a brother with his mouth full of marshmallows. He ignored us and carried on mumbling something to Benny.

Jane stood up and spoke to her teddy. "Teenagers really are dumb."
Sophia was too focused on Ethan and Benny and didn't realise Jane left the room. They kept mumbling stuff to each other, she was pretty certain not even they couldn't understand what they were saying.
The teenagers stopped what they were doing once they heard Jane scream and immediately got up and ran to the door.
"Ethan! Sophia!" The siblings looked at each other with panic before running outside, followed by Benny.
Ethan spat out his marshmallows. "Hey... you're home early."
"Hi mom..." Sophia said.
Benny, who was stood behind the siblings, awkwardly waved before scratching the back of his head, his mouth still full of marshmallows.
"How was date night?" Sophia asked them.
Their parents didn't look happy. Sophia and Ethan's dad comforted Jane whilst their mom looked at her as if she was about to murder them and they knew that was not a good sign.
Ethan looked back at Benny who managed to grin just a little.
We're screwed. Sophia thought to herself.

It Started with Slime
Before we jump in, let me say that the MC starts stupid, so the language and writing style is straightforward to reflect this. The writing improves with the MC and as the chapters progress (I hope). It is also a gradual growth story, so no zero to hero in ten seconds... with that out of the way: An alchemical experiment has gone wrong and results in a Slime Monster. It doesn't have a name at first and is something that it will need to work out! This story follows a Slime that starts as a Micro Slime with some level of consciousness, and there is more to it than meets the eye. Survival is the name of the game. To improve, it works hard to grow, evolve and become more powerful to survive its harsh new reality. There is a lot more going, and only time will tell if this Slime (all its various versions) can become strong enough to make it through the strife to the other side. It's a harsh world, after all. It Started with Slime is a story with a Monster Protagonist Evolution story. There will be no profanity and no sexual content, and there will be some violence and fighting descriptions. I am a native English speaker, and so the English here should be to a good standard. That said, even though editing, there may be some corrections and typos, so if you see some, let me know! If it bothers you a lot, I am working to make sure all chapters have no typos, but of course, some might slip through. I will endeavour to correct any picked up, though! Also, I started this a few months ago and so any feedback is always appreciated, also reviews and ratings! If you like or don't like the story, let me know in the detailed reviews! That always helps me see what is good and what needs improving. Working on releasing chapters twice a week, I will try to increase that as time goes, but at the moment, that is what I can release. Patreon has more. If the story gets more popular, then I will increase the releases. I am aiming ultimately for a chapter a day if I can get to that. Chapters are roughly 1500 words, with Interludes every five chapters being more or less than that! Enjoy! Edit: Book 1 finished on Patreon, and the format for Book 2 is slightly different with Interludes every three chapters, and the release schedule will be three chapters a week.

8 185Mobius
Far in the future, humans have thoroughly colonized space through the use of floating colonies and artificially replicating the Earth whenever possible. Most of these endeavors have gone well, with humanity spreading across the universe like the seeds of plants floating in the wind. Yet still there lurks the great mistake, the endless station of Mobius, a megastructure which hasn't ceased its building in over a century. Dante, a man living in this megastructure, is tasked with the recording of stories told by criminals, particularly those who travel between strata. One day, a prisoner is captured claiming to be Captain Pluto, an infamous criminal thought to be fictitious by most scholars. Even more curious, he claims to hail all the way from Stratum 56, a location so far away from Dante's Stratum 999 that it would take lifetimes to traverse such a distance. Dante must discern whether or not the story is false or true, and the longer he lets Captain Pluto speak, the more difficult his task becomes. *****Average chapter length will be 10k words give or take. This isn't a very serious story for me. I'm writing this to blow off steam. Updates will happen infrequently because of this, and it will most likely be unpolished unless I begin to take it more seriously.
