《Unexpected》All A Fantasy
Advertisement
When I wake up in the morning, the sheets next to me are warm but Gavin is nowhere is sight. I climb out of bed, walking out to the living room. Gavin's shoes aren't near the door. I open the front door. His car is still here. He is probably down in the bar. I go back to the bedroom, changing into a t-shirt and jeans. My jeans barely button. Looks like I'm going to need to go shopping for bigger clothes again.
I slip on a pair of flip flops and head down to the bar. Gavin is accepting a delivery when I get down there. I wait until he is done signing and the delivery man leaves before I speak.
"Why did you kiss me?"
"I don't know what you are talking about."
He doesn't even bother looking in my direction as he responds. This only makes me angrier.
"Yes you do. You kissed me at the party last night and I want to know why."
"I was drunk."
"No you weren't."
He looks at the shelves of bottles, jotting notes down on the pad of paper he has in his hands.
"Why aren't you giving me a straight answer?"
"I did. I was drunk and lost control for a moment."
I slam my hand on the bar, making him jump.
"Stop lying to me!"
He stares at me. I join him behind the bar.
"I know what it's like to kiss someone when they are drunk. How do you think this happened?"
I motion down to my stomach.
"Last night, when you kissed me, you were not drunk. You may have been slightly intoxicated but you didn't have enough to impair your judgement."
"You don't know how alcohol effects my body."

I put a finger against his lips. He gives me an unamused look.
"You are lying to me and yourself. All you are doing is burying the truth."
He grabs my wrist moving my hand away from his face. He chuckles, going right back to taking inventory.
"I don't know what little fantasy you are concocting in your head, but I was drunk."
His voice screams truth but his body language screams lying. A voice is easy to control. Body language is harder.
I throw my hands up, exiting the bar area.
"Fine. When you wanna stop lying to yourself come find me. I'll be with Sonny."
I can hear a low grumble come from Gavin but he doesn't move.
I'll get him to tell truth.
One way or another.

Reincarnated as a Troll in a Dark Fantasy World
A troll wakes up in the "forest of beginning" of a fantasy world with only faint memories of his past human life and unable to speak. The human realm will spare no expense to bring down this monstruous threat. While clinging to his humanity, the troll must use his cunning and modern knowledge to survive and evade the hunters. It is a dark age in a world of swords and magic, ruled by superstition and iron-clad rules. Tradition and conformity are the absolute cornerstones of society. There is no calendar, people count time by seasons, or days. Death, famine and vicious monsters are everywhere. People clutch in their communities, afraid of what is outside. Here and there, a Hero rises, his tale brief like a shooting star. Powerful monsters that drift too close to human's realm must be eradicated at any cost, or society might crumble. The Troll comitted this sin. This "isekai' LitRPG novel is an experiment in writing. We commit to the "Adventure" and "Fantasy" genres, but it might have comedy, romance, and both dark and light tones. Some events in this novel are drawn from random encounter generators and others are decided on a die roll just like a tabletop RPG. Things take a unpredictable tone! Non constructive / offensive comments may be deleted without previous warning. Daily Updates: One each monday through friday, two on saturday and sunday. As of september, the updates will be every even-numbered day. Cover Credits: "Ett gammalt bergtroll" - John Bauer, 1904 (with modifications)

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.
