《✰⋆ Just Like the Movies ⋆ 1940/1950/1960 Imagines and Short Stories ✰⋆》✰⋆ Gordon MacRae ✰⋆

You admired him from afar; the way he smiled and the love and passion that crept into his eyes. He was filming a scene for his new film Oklahoma! and crew allowed you on set.
He was a natural at performing, you already knew that. It wasn't everyday where you could watch him film, though you wished it were.
He was perfect. Everything about him.
"Take five everybody." The director called.
Gordon quickly fled from the bright spotlight and hurried to the back of the soundstage towards you.
"Oh honey." he cooed, wrapping his arms around your waist and tugging you close.
"You're so handsome." You fiddled with his open shirt collar.
"You're so beautiful, remind me again how you became my wife?" He chuckled. He rested his cheek on your hair. He hummed the tune to Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin'.
There was a lot running through your mind in that moment. A burst of love erupted from your heart and made you only hold onto him tighter.
Those five minutes went by too fast. Gordon gently removed himself from your grasp and rushed back to be in front of the camera once more. Continuing the scene as if there were never any pauses.
You sat down in the corner on a soft couch. You found yourself dozing off to the beautiful sound of your husband's singing voice.
✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆
Arms wrapped themselves around your body and lifted you from your makeshift bed. You knew who it was without opening your eyes. You cuddled into his shoulder as he carried you to a new destination.
"I certainly didn't expect you to sleep on that soundstage. I must say you sure looked adorable."
He carried you out to the car and sat you down. He was now in his normal clothing and the curls in his hair were almost entirely straight.

"It's a very relaxing environment."
"It's not always that way. Everybody might've been on their best behavior just for you."
"What ever the case may be, I had a wonderful time." He placed his hand on your knee and started to drive home.
"Oh what a beautiful mornin', oh what a beautiful day, I've got a beautiful feeling that everything's going my way." He quietly sang.
You couldn't take your eyes off him. He was oblivious to your lovesick stare, or just good at ignoring it.
✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆ ✰⋆
"You're too good to me. Sometimes I wonder if this is all a dream of sorts. We've never had an argument, and we've been married for two years. I'll never understand it but I'll never take it for granted."
Your eyes peeled open to see your husband laying beside you. His warmth reached out to you and pulled you close.
"And someday we'll have a little one. A little boy for me and a little girl for you."
"It sounds wonderful darling."

Omnicrafter (A Crafting Adventure LitRPG)
Countless twenty-something-year-olds around the world wish every day for a chance to go back in time to start practicing their passions sooner in life. Tabitha is one such woman. With all of her youth spent playing online games where crafting was as simple as gathering materials and clicking a "craft" button to put them together, she never gained any actual experience in making things. Every attempt to create something in the real world is met with disaster. Her heart yearns for being the master crafter of her virtual youth, but she's the type who burns water when trying to cook. That changes when she wakes up and finds herself in a game-like fantasy world where crafting comes as naturally to her as breathing. She still has to put in the hard work of crafting herself, but the system helps her out to make what was once impossible for her possible. She gets all the fun of making things and flexing her creative spirit while not needing any years of training nor study to build her skill up! While she might not have any idea how she got to this strange world, she does know that she's not going to waste her chance and is going to make the most out of this new opportunity to craft everything! An "Omnicrafter" was what they called people in the MMORPGs she played who maxed out every single crafting class, and that is exactly what Tabitha plans on doing with her new life! The crafting side of this series is heavily inspired by games like the Atelier series and the critically-acclaimed Final Fantasy XIV (which has a free trial, you know!)*. If there's a problem, it can be solved by crafting. Also, in case the title and synopsis didn't make it obvious enough, this series is going to focus on crafting all the things. Wooden spears and protective cuirasses? You got it! Healing tonics and farming equipment? Sure! Elaborate cupcakes and customizable fantasy golems? Darn straight! Weapons with a broken amount of different buffs applied to them due to the crafting process and materials used? You know it! The most amazing fishing rod to ever exist? Well, obviously. Fishing is the true endgame only after crafting, after all! So, if you like alchemy, blacksmithing, carpentry, cooking, leatherworking, tailoring, engineering, rune forging, magical enchanting, or basically any other type of crafting found in RPGs, come check the story out! An omnicrafter doesn't just focus on one specific type of crafting. A true omnicrafter is the best at all types of crafting! *This is a meme, I'm not sponsored by FFXIV, please don't hate me.

The Unified States of Mana
My name is Kyra Baker, I’m 20 years old and a university student, and recently I’ve been offered a scholarship to a definitely-not-shady magical academy. A ‘support device’ I was given shows me a list of classes I can take, all involving mana, magic, and Skills with a capital S. To get there I was lumped into a ship full of strange and alien creatures, jumping between worlds as we pick up more and more hapless ‘students’. Things were starting to make a little sense, until the ship crashed into an alien world. Now, I might be getting trained as a rebel soldier, or something? Looking on the bright side, I haven’t gotten this much exercise in a long time and there are plenty of cute girls around. When I develop some Skills and work on my classes, maybe I’ll become strong enough to actually have the time to flirt with them. ~ One of the few surviving records thought to be written by the Empress before her rise to power.
