《Seventeen One-Shots》(1)|Dino| (REVISED)
Advertisement
You were sitting in the bleachers during PE with your friends, watching the boys play dodge ball. "I swear if I get hit...I'm sueing." You said to your friends. "If you get hit we're all gonna laugh." One of them said. You were sitting at the very front,very center, prime location for a rogue dodge ball. You glared at all your friends. "Dino wouldn't let her get hit though." Another friend said. You turned red. Chan was a guy you really really really liked. "That isn't even his name! Shut up!" You yelled, resenting the nickname they gave him. Suddenly a dodge ball came flying at you. You were so scared that it came at you in slow motion. It didn't hit you though. Chan came out of nowhere and hit the ball away from you. "Who threw that!?" He demanded. "Told you Dino wouldn't let her get hit." Your friends laughed. "You okay (y/n)?" He asked you. You nodded with a stupid smile on your face. "Can you two just get together already?" A friend said. "Yeah. Its so obvious Dino likes you just as much as you like him." Another friend said. "Why do all of you call him Dino? That nickname is so stupid." You said. "He looks like a dinosaur." A friend said bluntly.
After PE you and Chan walked to Chemistry together. You weren't paying attention and suddenly half the class had balloons. "I want a balloon." You said quietly. "Here. Take mine." Chan said, handing you his balloon. You smiled to your self as you took it and began tossing it in the air. "Thanks Din-...Chan." you said, hating yourself for almost using that stupid nickname.
After school you stood at your locker, still playing with the balloon.

You noticed something inside it...a piece of paper. You reluctantly popped it to retrieve the note. You opened it up to read it and your heart beat stopped. "Do you wanna go on a date and get ice cream after school?" It read. You were overwhelmed with happiness. You didn't know what to do with yourself. You closed your locker door and Chan was standing there. "I'll take that as a yes." He laughed with pink cheeks.
I reread this and wanted to cry.
I had loosely based this One-Shot off of some stuff that happened between my ex-best friend and her ex-boyfriend. It brought back such happy memories of her.

Metagame
Some people get a second chance, late in life, and jump on it. Other people are on their third before they turn twenty. One was given everything they wanted, and threw it away on principle. One earned their place, but could never afford to pay the price. One never failed, right up until it mattered. One encountered nothing but failure, instead helping others achieve success. One never believed themselves worthy. One is crushed by the past, afraid of what might repeat itself. And the last never had a goal to begin with. But while nobody cared and no one was watching, they each decided to carry on in their own ways, even when that made things worse- and they did, usually, get worse. Arrows Through Reality, often called Arrows or ATR, is the world's first full-immersion Virtual Reality game, a MOBA by Granduon incorporated that didn't blow its competition out of the water, but did provide a new entry point that had millions trying their new game. Two years later, the player base has only grown, and everybody knows the most effective tactics... but while a cutting-edge AI supposedly runs the game's balance, it hasn't patched anything a single time. Well, the most effective way to do anything is subjective, right?

Until You Do It Right
The world ended on December thirty-first of the year two thousand and twenty, precisely at the stroke of midnight. The human race began to be systematically exterminated by the spawn of the System. We were given a chance to defeat them, to take back our place at the top of the food chain. We failed. The first to perish were those who bravely rebelled. The soldiers. The defenders. One by one, they fell. In their final moments, they begged for aid. Nobody replied. The next to succumb were those who feebly cowered. The deniers. The leeches. Together, they fell. In their final moments, they cried out into the darkness. Countless voices replied in kind. The last to decline were those who shamelessly ran. The deserters. The cowardly. Alone, they fell. In their final moments, they whimpered quietly. There was nobody left to answer. The final human to die was a survivor. A runner. As he died, he begged for salvation. His prayers were answered. He was offered a chance to save himself, along with all of humanity, and he took it. This is his story. “I sat in the dark and thought: There’s no big apocalypse. Just an endless procession of little ones.”― Neil Gaiman, Signal to Noise. I am absolutely new to writing and will take any and all constructive criticism. Please give feedback, it is greatly appreciated. I will update the tags as they change, and I hope that you enjoy this little story I'm writing! Quick warning: Seamus is intentionally a flawed character, and this story is going to explore those flaws and perhaps even change a few of them. I do not agree with all of his actions, but it is what it is.
