《Her Husband's Child *Editing*》Meeting The Uncle
Advertisement
Hello sweethearts. I don't know when I'll update but for now here's a chapter.
~~
"I know you're worried Rose, but he is nothing like his son I honestly wonder why he had a son like that."
"I know it's just that I'm so nervous, by the way why have I never met him?"
"He's...well you could say reserved after the incident with Gabriel everyone looked down on him they thought it was his fault, after all they say that children reflect their parents. " I snorted
"What's so funny?"
"If that was true I would be full of botox and silicone, and let's not forget you would've already lost half of your money."
"Well I'm happy it's not true then, I would rather see you wrinkly that full of silicon."
"Aww you're so sweet I would give you a kiss but since I've been giving in to much you'll have to work for it."
"Come on Rose! You're killing me!"
"Too bad I guess I'll be all alone with your millions." I said looking down at my nails.
"You're mean."
"Just a little bit."
"More like a lot, we're here." We made our way out of the limo and made our way to a two story white house with a nice little garden in the front yard. Michael knocked on the front door and a small woman with bright blue eyes opened. She immediately embraced Michael in a hug and started saying. "Hay hijo mio poor que no as venido a vistarnos? Te e extranado mucho." (Umm.. I suck at translating. "Oh my boy why haven't you visited? I have missed you a lot") she said tears brimming her eyes.
"Tia mirate que joven te ves, lo siento es que yo estaba muy ocupado arreglando algunos problemas. ("Aunt Look at how young you look, I'm sorry I have been very busy solving some problems.") Is it just me, or is it getting hot in here?

"Esta bien no te preocupes ahora esta debe de ser tu esposa, que hermosa es." (Its ok don't worry now this must be your wife, she's beautiful. ") I blushed.
"Muchas gracias senora igualmente." (Thank you Ma'am the same to you.) She gave me a smile.
"Well, come on in so you can tell what the hell Gabriel did this time." The inside was just a beautiful as the outside it had a nice homey feeling. The walls were a crème color and there were pictures everywhere.
"I didn't know your aunt was Mexican"
"Yeah they met when she was my uncle's P.A in Mexico. They fell in love and well the rest is history."
"Tom! Tom! We have guests get your lazy ass out of that recliner and get down here!"
"I'm coming! I'm coming I swear you will kill me from a heart attack. "
"Too bad." I smiled at their behavior wishing that one day Michael and I would be the same.
"Michael my sweet boy." I again snorted
"And you must be Rosalie, the one that got away."
"Uncle Tom you need to stop listening to Katy Perry so much."
"And you need to pay more attention to your wife if you don't want her to leave your sorry ass."
"Thomas! Leave them alone." said Michael's aunt who had a tray in her hand.
"Fine, so why the visit? Not to be rude. " He said trying to steal a cookie from the tray but failing miserably.
"Well...I saw Gabriel again and I was wondering if he has talked to you."
"Oh god, what is it this time?"
"He wants to take our daughter away and I won't let him." Michael answered rubbing my stomach.

Uncle Tom exhaled "I'm so sorry to hear that, but no he hasn't talked to me in a long time."
"I understand." Awkward silence filled the room.
"Well how's the baby?" Asked his aunt.
"She's doing fine although she was quite naughty the first months." I answered.
"Ahh, the typical so when's she due?"
"Around the 12th of December"
"A December baby how cute. Our daughter Anna was born the same month. "
"You have a daughter?"
"Yes she's around your age and she should be here any minute." And at that moment a face I recognized walked through the door.
"You?!" We both said at the same time. Seems like we do live in a small world.

What did you think? I hoped you like it because I almost screamed at the cramp my hand got and I finished the deluxe verision of the Ultraviolence album. Hopefully I can update tomorrow night around this time, but no promises.
~Adios

Luck And Chronomancy
Time Magic is the best magic as everyone knows, although there are lots of unique Talents in the world. Most people only remember Haste because it is hard to get to higher Phases of Chronomancy. That is still enough to make the Talent iconic. A lucky enough Aleatory Talent can position you for greatness or leave you languishing in obscurity. The only true equality in the world is when that glowing message pops up at 8 years old. Even if it doesn't activate until you are an adult at 16 you still know. Sure you can find a new dungeon spawn and get another chance at a rare Talent, even this one, but you have to already be ready to delve into the *Far Wilds*, which is far easier with wealth or family power. This is the story of where my good fortune took me and the difference it made, even among a party of 7 others including an Arcanist. It is a journey of magic and monsters but also math, which some think is actually worse. Luckily I was born with Intelligence and Focus as my personal traits, and my parents were scholars. Of course Chronomancy can also be a frontline combat talent. Versitility well beyond other Elder Talents like Gravity, Abstraction, or Arcana. Might could have worked for me, too. I also met a runaway princess. All the best adventures have a princess. She hated being a noble and we didn't get married but it still counts. Besides she really filled out our front line. All that Leadership training came in handy. I still don't know where she's from. Who cares? How well Haste goes with giant hammers is what's important. I never learned much about anyone in the party, except the one I grew up with. I'm not a people person. I just wanted to optimize dungeon clearing time. *******Story Details******* No romance, politics, or traumatizing content, slice of life, or even dialogue. 1st person narration, like a guide/adventure log. 2000-7000 words a day, maybe 40-60% rpgish combat log with some reasoning on combat decisions, with the rest character Talent discussion and progression stuff. 8 person party with a decent variety in roles. Party members usually have 2 primary functions. Told from the support/control Chronomancer's perspective. Each party member will have 6 Basic/Background Traits, then 3 actual Talents with abilities. Capstone from their Educational Institution, Arbritrary as a gift from the temples, and Aleatory which is decided at birth, revealed at 8, and activated after adulthood at 16. Aleatory Traits ignore requirements and are random why is why they are so important. They'll gain new Talents from finding Dungeons to consume in the *Wilds*. Mature dungeons in cities can provide *Challenges* to raise the Phase of a Talent, up to 3 times from 1 to 4. Each character will get to roughly 8 non-Trait Talents. Attributes come exclusive from Talents, are required by Talents, and provide various effects as well. I designed about 220 Talents with abilities, 4 in each of 4 phases. "Traits" are just Attribute stuff. I'm not sure how many will be detailed in the story, more than 100 for sure. I used Talents because I want to be free of the legacy of tabletop. Half those rules are just because of the limitations inherent in a pre-computer ttrpg. This story mostly uses combat Talents, although like 1/3 of the 220 are for crafting and other society and economy stuff. If you really wanted to be a Thief you might take Intuition, Awarness, and Might for Basic Traits and Deftness, Manipulation, and Trickery for Family/Education. Then you'd pick Acrobatics, and Climbing for Educational Capstone and Arbitrary traits. You Aleatory Trait might be Shadow(Light/Dark) Magic, Umbramancy. A Bard might swap Dexterity for Charisma, Music for Acrobatics, and have gotten Illusion(Shadow/Sound(Air/Force)) for their Aleatory Trait.

The BLOODLANDS
The story follows a young lord in which a middle-aged man reincarnated into the body and gets a second chance at using the knowledge he learns from reading in his past life. No longer bound to the world of his library and university but in a world in which if he failed not only his death but the death of others are in his hands. This concept of the book came about from having two mild heart attacks and the regrets of not being more active in my younger life. Note: The cover of the book is from a painting of Richard the Lionheart at the Battle of Arsuf (1191) during the Third Crusade where he defeated Saladin. Painting by Gustave Doré (19th century).

Sengoku Demon Chronicles
Sengoku-era Japan was already batshit crazy. Now it’s got demons. ~~~ Japan 1541-2. Miho, a young village guy [with a female name], is on the trail of his mysterious lost love when he unwittingly saves the life of Akira, a cynical ashigaru [low-level samurai]. By doing so, he incurs the wrath of a box demon who is way too petty to just let it go. After that, it’s mostly downhill. ~~~ Includes: purple mist demons, portals, Yuki Onna, other demons, warlords, ashigaru, a try-hard mage, an eight-tailed fox and an endless litany of pathological liars. Historically, it’s about as accurate as most Hollywood productions. Hopefully, a little better. ~~~ Note: due to having fewer followers than a no-touch, no-look sex cult, I'm taking a break from this for August/September. Will be back in October to finish off Volume 1 and start off Volume 2.
