THIS CHAPTER GOES OUT TO YOU AND UR MASSIVE CAKE
3rd person POV
Jordyn was jerked awake by the car coming to a halt. "get out fuckers and find you some snacks" Wilbur claps and everyone groggily falls out of the car and walks into the store. The automatic doors open and Tommy's eyes light up
"THEY HAVE SO MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF MARS BARS" he runs over to the candy selection and Jordyn laughs walking over to the monster section, picking out a papillon. Jordyn walks back over to the candy isle and picks out some smarties and some Doritos, cool ranch of course. Tubbo got a coke and some fizzy rocks. Jordyn just looks at him confused and goes up to pay.
"Hello this is all please" She smiles as everyone puts their things on the counter. The cashier lets out a long sigh and starts to scan everything. Jordyn grabs the bags and walks over to the automatic doors, looking a lot more lively this time.
"They were just in a silly goofy mood" Lani quotes and Jordyn lets out a loud laugh. They walk over to the car, Jordyn and Tommy getting in first getting situated in their cramped space. "gimmie my monster woman" Lani makes grabby hands and Jordyn hands her the monster. Lani opens it with out a second thought and it goes everywhere. "oooooh Wilburs gonna kill you" Jordyn coos and Lani starts looking for napkins trying to clean the mess up.
To Lani's luck, she managed to clean it almost all the way, there were some spots here and there but it was mostly clean. "okay children, we're not stopping again, we're about 45 minutes from the bnb" Will says loud enough as he climbs into the front seat "Onwards!" Jordyn points ahead of her as WIlbur starts the car "shut up" Wilbur mumbles laughing a little

The car was not silent whatsoever. Tommy and Tubbo were talking about the new 1.17 minecraft update, Lani and Jordyn were talking about Youtubers who got canceled, and Ranboo and WIlbur were talking about a small streamer named Phodoo. "did you know Aphmau got cancelled?" Lani whispers and Jordyn's eye went wide. "for whyy?" Jordyn stands up in the back to hear Lani better, almost choking herself with the seatbelt.
"She fetishizes mlm, asians, and made the two brothers kiss in an episode, the short story one?" Lani purses her lips before opening her mouth again, "and, and she treated her workers really bad. that's why Max left." she shakes her pointer finger and Jordyn's mouth is just agape. "Wow" is all she could say "I know right" Lani sighs crossing her arms "it's always the ones you love the most that turn bad."
Jordyn shouldn't have over-thought that last statement, but she did. and Lani was right. Jordyn looked over to Tommy who was in an in depth conversation about Minecraft statistics, she found herself wanting to have his attention, all the time. She wanted to be in his embrace, all the time. She found out, on August 11th 2021, she liked Tom Simons.
Now you're probably thinking, ' well she should've figured it out when she wanted to kiss him.' That could've been an in the moment type thing, she was upset. But as she looks over to Tommy, his smile wide and his voice just made her happy.
"we're here" WIlbur shouted and that snapped Jordyn out of her trance, now watching Tommy trying to climb over the seats. Jordyn was laughing at him to the point that she couldn't see because her eyes started watering. "Go Tommy! Jesus" Jordyn pushes Tommy over the seat and he just blinks at her. "If you don't move I will step on you" Jordyn holds back a laugh as Tommy squirms out of the car.

"You guys do know that we could've just-" Ranboo pulls the lever on the side of the seat making it fold down. "oh" Tommy looks at the seat and Jordyn just bursts out laughing. "Their here!" Jordyn's head whips around and is met with a girl she was not familiar with. "Hi! I'm Maya!" she hugs Jordyn first and Jordyn tenses but gives her a hug anyway. Maya goes down the line and hugs everyone, Ranboo had an exceptionally large grin on his face. Making the rest of the group laugh at him.
They all walk in hugging everyone or saying hi, Jordyn doesn't hug anyone, she just stays by Tommy the whole time like a lost puppy. "I've never seen you this shy Z" Tommy chuckles sitting on the couch Jordyn sitting close by. "I don't know why, I guess it's just a lot of people" Jordyn shrugs and Tommy smiles to her "lets go put your stuff in your room, you're in the same room as Lorelei" He ushers her to follow him and Jordyn gets up. "Whose Lorelei?"
"Lorelei is a friend of Sapnaps. She's a music artist." He explains and Jordyn nods putting her suitcase on the bed and slumping down in front of it. "Are you sure you're alright?" Tommy joins her sitting close enough to pull her into a side hug. Jordyn rests her head on Tommy's shoulder and sighs
"yeah I'm Alright"

8 3824The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
