《Tiny Texas Time!》April
Advertisement
(Texas is loosely based off of my little cousin, basically just removing the basic little girl traits of being a leader by force, absolute savage, and criminal mastermind
My little cousin is six and is still learning how to do the grammaring of words good
Sometimes, instead of saying "She" or "he", she'll say "her" or "him"
Ex: "Her is scared of me and him is running in terror,"
i'm making Texas talk like this because screw you)
B: America! Your mother and I are back from our trip! Can we pick up Texas and take him out to get ice cream? We miss our little cowboy!
A: Unfortunately no... he's with his abuelo
B: Awww...Why?
A: He's been real bad lately... sneaking out, getting in trouble... I mean, he's not a bad kid-
B: He's the sweetest little baby ever!
A: ...Yeah, like I said, he's not a bad kid... he's just... adventurous... and he's never gotten hurt, so he never really learned to play it safe, y'know?
B: Oh Ame, you and Aussie were like that when you were his age
A: What'd you do?
B: your grandfather beat you...
A: Ugh, yeah... no, I don't want that for Texas... I just hope Spain can keep Texas out of trouble... He's a lot more "No nonsense" than you are
B: You know I can't say no to my little cowboy
A: You love him more than you love me... I don't think I had a cute nickname growing up...
B: It's because "Little cowboy" Is a cuter nickname than "Little abolitionist"
A: I find both of them equally endearing!
B: Haha, it did describe you rather well, I'm sure my father wouldn't have called you that with any bit of endearment though
A: True, true, well, if you're so excited to see Texas again, I'll call Spain to tell him you and mom will pick Texas up on Sunday

B: Ok, tell him not to tell Texas though! I want it to be a surprise
A: Of course, bye dad, love you... even though you're a bastard
B: Love you too! you're by far my favorite mistake
Meanwhile, Texas woke up at 11
He was ecstatic that he was allowed to sleep in
He went downstairs and was even more ecstatic to see pancakes
"Buenos días águilito... I see you had a rough night," Spain said, leading Texas to the sink to wash his hands.
"Mhm... I miss home," Texas said sleepily.
"Aw, I'm sorry... well, I know what might cheer you up," Spain said. Texas looked up at him in curiosity. "I saw you have a lot of toy horses... after breakfast, I'll let you meet the horses on the farm," Spain said. Texas gasped dramatically, something kids tend to do, mostly because that's what they learned to do from the TV.
"Really?! Can we go now?!" Texas exclaimed excitedly. Spain smiled.
"Eat first, the horses are having their breakfast now too," Spain said. Texas nodded diligently and started eating quickly.
"Comer despacio, águilito. You'll choke," Spain said.
"But I wanna see the horses!" Texas exclaimed. Spain chuckled.
"We have all day, mi vida, pace yourself," Spain said. Texas slowed down a bit, and in between bites asked about the horses.
"So how many are there?" Texas asked.
"Four, one of them is a baby," Spain said.
"Awww! I wanna see the baby horsey! What's her name?" Texas asked.
"Her name is April, because she was born this month... I'm not the most creative at names," Spain said. Texas smiled.
"I wanna meet her now! I'm done eating" Texas exclaimed. Spain smiled.
"Ok, follow me!"
(Btw I will potentially be inactive for a while because I'm getting surgery, and I don't know how I'll feel afterwards)

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
