《Seventeen One-Shots》(3) %Seungkwan% REWRITTEN
Advertisement
You were sitting on your bed, listening to music with your neighbor Seungkwan sitting at your desk.
Both of yall were bored senseless.
"(YYYYYYYYYYY/NNNNNNNN)!" He whined over AKMU. "Entertain me!" He pitched a fit at your desk like a fussy 4 year old.
"Wanna go out and do something?" You suggested. "I'm broke and I'm a man. Absolutely not." He protested. "What?" You were severely confused. "As a man, I can not and will not take you out somewhere and make you pay for everything." He huffed. "Lol okay." You rolled your eyes at him. "Don't talk to me like we're texting! What's wrong with you?!"
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you?" Seungkwan's eyes got big and he looked slightly (severely) distressed. "Don't you know that we could roam around Jeju all afternoon playing Pokemon Go for free and have fun as friends?" Seungkwan puffed out his bottom lip and put his hand over his heart as if he were highly offended.
"When I said go out, I didn't mean go to a movie or dinner like a date. I literally meant get out of the house and just do something." He turned the music down.
"Like, let's just enjoy eachother's company and go down to a fishing dock and listen to some music together or go to the mall and sit somewhere and just people watch. Why do you gotta over complicate everything?" You huffed.
Seungkwan's face looked less triggered as he folded his hands and rested his chin on them, as if he was thinking extremely hard about every word out of your mouth. "I'll be right back." He said calmly. "Where are you going? I didn't piss you off did I?" He said nothing and left your room.

Shortly after disappearing, he reappeared and flashed a stack of cash in your face. "Come on. Get dressed." "What?" "Put on some nice jeans, a cute shirt and your Vans. I am taking you on a date." "Why do you have to be so extra all the time? You aren't taking me on a date. We are not together." You said plainly, wondering why he of all people had to be your neighbor.
"Isn't that the whole point of dates? To see if you wanna really be with the other person?" He shrugged his shoulders. "You've gotta be kidding me right now." You let out a forced laugh. He remained straight faced. "Oh my God. You're serious." "Why would I joke about wanting to take you on a date?" "Because you are an extra as fuck diva." "I'll leave so you can get dressed." He walked out of your room and shut the door.
"I'm not changing." You said to yourself, getting comfortable in bed.
20 minutes passed and there was a light knock at your door. "Yes?" You hollered absently. "Are you ready yet?" You heard Seungkwan on the other side of your bedroom door. "No, lol." "What do you mean by lol?" You could hear how triggered he was.
He opened your door and pouted at you. "Do you really not wanna go on a date with me?" "Why should I? It's not like you actually wanna be my boyfriend." You laughed, kinda in denial about your true feelings towards Seungkwan. "I wouldn't have begged my mother for money if I didn't wanna show you a good time and take you out on a very nice date if I didn't wanna be your boyfriend." "You are persistent." You said, finally realizing that he was being serious. "Okay, give me 10 minutes to get dressed." You said, agreeing to go out with him. "Pfft, I already gave you 20 minutes." He mumbled.

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!

Red Street Daybreak
August Samuel Hatch was born under an inauspicious pattern of stars. It's granted him what is widely considered the most unlucky of inconveniences: becoming host to a powerful but pernicious spirit that will act as his guide and protector--and one day end his life. Sairne is sworn to stand by August's side and, when the fancy strikes her, advise him, all in the service of atoning for a past life she can’t remember having committed a grave enough offense to earn her soul indentureship in the mortal realm. Bound by a celestial contract neither one can negotiate, their fates are all they've ever known. But in a city ruled by religious right and where magic runs deep as bedrock, their search for a missing friend leads them to a dark conspiracy that could transmute the very magic that binds them to their fates, and that might grant them the ultimate choice: do they save the city or save themselves? Cross-posted on Wattpad and Ao3. For fans of fantasy YA story beats if they starred adults instead, 1920s inspired setting, lots of banter, larger cast of characters, somewhat soft magic system. Completed, but being actively edited prior to posting! I'm the only captain on this ship, so mind any errors.
