《Seventeen One-Shots》-5- S.Coups Revised
Advertisement
You sat in your room, blaring music, studying for a college entrance exam. You had been secluding yourself from everyone...even your parents.
There was a knock on your door but you ignored it.
The knocking got louder.
You only blocked it out more.
"(Y/n)! Open up!" You heard a familiar voice and smiled largely. "No! You're gonna distract me!" You laughed, opening your bedroom door to reveal your long term crush of 4 excruciatingly long and painful years.
He smiled at you largely and hugged you tightly. "I haven't seen you in a week. What's the deal?" He asked, plopping onto your bed. "I've been studying...a lot." You said simply, avoiding looking at Seungchol sprawled out on your bed.
You have liked Seungchol since y'all got paired up for a biology assignment your 1st year of high school. Shortly afterwards, y'all became good friends. Then...somehow, thanks to your lack of knowledge of the opposite sex, you became his wing woman and got him a girlfriend your 2nd year of high school. They've been together ever since and you have been shamefully awaiting the day she gets tired of him.
"How does your girlfriend feel about you seeking off to visit me?" You asked, sitting down at your desk. "What girlfriend?" You heard your bed creak as he sat up and you heard total animosity in his voice. You got wide eyed and turned to face him. "Y'all broke up?" You were in between feeling bad for him and feeling good for yourself. "Yeah...She decided that I wasn't good enough for her anymore. She said I tried to hard to be funny, I smothered her with to much attention, worried to much...I was to jealous and secretive. Also...she looked through my phone and didn't like that I sent you good morning texts 3 minutes before her." He counted everything off on his fingers.

You thought that was ridiculous.
"Do you need anything?" You asked sympathetically. "A hug would be great." He stood up and you walked towards him with open arms. As you got closer, you noticed tears welling up in his eyes. You hugged him tightly, wrapping your arms around his neck. He wrapped his around your waist and began weeping into your shoulder.
He cried for half an hour and you let him. Hell...you started crying with him. He sniffled and pulled away. "I'm sorry... I shouldn't have taken you away from your studying...I just wanted...needed to see you." He wiped away his tears. "No need to be sorry. If you ever need anything at all...do not hesitate to talk to me." "Can I just hang out for a little while?" He asked, hope taking the place of his tears. You smiled softly and nodded. "If you keep the pestering to a minimum...then sure. This test is super important...but so are you." You sat down at your desk and picked up your pencil.
You felt Seungchol's strong arms wrap around your shoulders and his head rest on top of yours. "Thanks. I love you." He said simply and flopped back into your bed.
You weren't sure how to respond to that so you just sat at your desk smiling like an idiot the rest of the afternoon.
Long story short...you would've failed your test if your guessing skills weren't on point.
Just a little update on my health...I am feeling way better. I didn't end up going to the doctor and my headaches have stopped. I still have a stiffness in my neck but that's probably from sleeping with to many pillows tbh.

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading! Cover art (fullsize): Forgotten World Coliseum, by taenaron (Tobias Roetsch), modified by Etzoli.

Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
