《Hermitcraft Season 8 and 9 Oneshots》What Friends Are For - Pearl/Gem (S8)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pearl POV
I was very worried. Gem's never late, why isn't she here yet? No Pearl, your overreacting. But what if she's not okay?
I decided to trust my gut and make it over to here base. When I arrived, I flew around a bit while admiring the builds. I realized I was getting distracted so I focused back on the task at hand. After looking for 15 minutes, the only place I hadn't checked was her starter base.
I walked in to the small base with no sign of Gem. When I climbed up the ladder, what I saw was concerning. Despite it being 11 am, Geminitay was lying in bed looking very tired.
"Gem?" I asked once I was next to her.
"Huh... Pearl?" she mumbled sleepily.
I pressed my hand against their forehead and as I suspected, it was warm to the touch.
"Here, have a blanket," I said in a calm voice as I passed her the fuzzy blanket nearby.
As shiver went down her spine as she responded with "T- thank y-y-ou Pearl."
"Gem, your sick just try to get some sleep."
"N-no I am not. I'll get up."
The ginger tried to sit up but when she did, she looked like she had a headache.
"Geminitay, you need to stay in bed to get better."
"B- but I have s- so much to do today..." she responded as shivers went down her spine.
"No, no. Your fine, I can tell them you can't make it. Just stay here and try to get better."
She finally agreed and settled down in bed, but not before saying "Thank you P-pearl."
As I made my way downstairs, I thought about the past few minutes. It really hurt me to see my friend like that and it's my job to help Gem get better.

3rd Person POV
Pearl looked around the house and found what I needed, which wasn't too hard considering the size of the house. She put the pot on the stove poured the soup out of the can. While the soup was 'cooking', Pearl looked around the house until she found some Advil . She found it and put the now heated soup in the bowl.
Gem POV
I couldn't think about anything else. The throbbing pain in my head was too much to bear. My throat felt like it was burning with each breath. I didn't care i was make soft wimper-like noises.
I felt a pair of arms pull me into a sitting position. I opened my eyes to see a concerned Pearl looking at me.
"Gem, are you okay?"
"N-no," I managed to whisper, increasing the pain in my throat.
"Here, have this." She gave me a pill and a glass of water. I swallowed the medicine and almost immediately started feeling better .
"Thank you Pearl."
"Anything for a friend. Try to sleep, I'll be here if you need."
As I readjusted myself, I couldn't help but smile a bit. This is what friends are for.

Aurelia Online
"Welcome to the Universe of Aurelia!" These were the words spoken by Zenid Corp when they released info about their new VRMMORPG. They said it would be groundbreaking, mind boggling, and view changing.They said you would see AI in a whole new light.Will these words prove true?Or will Zenid's promise fall flat?.......Who knows. This isn't a story about them it's a story about a laidback, quirky, slightly perverted young man named Derrick Ashport aka Nortaz.Join him as he adventures through space, learns mystery psionics, and tries to build up one of the most deadly and rotten (quite literally) harems ever heard of in a game all while subconsciously trying to avoid his childhood friend!(Cover picture is placeholder. The number and gray thing irritated me)____________________________________________________________________________This is my first story and as such it WILL more than likely lack in most places. I'm more than willing for all criticism and suggestions for how it will go and names for places, people, and items. Also don't worry this isn't some harem focused story story wise though the MC does try to go for it but not until later. And yes he will notice a harem is forming.

Leave Bad Enough Alone
Something has been amiss in the city’s theaters as of late. The local bards have long done a respectable job of keeping the audiences entertained, weaving high concepts with skillful performances. But lately, a new set of bards, and their illusionist cohorts, have captured the crowd’s attention. Compared to the theater’s usual fare, their work is hackneyed and poorly plotted, with unskilled acting, bad special effects, and unsatisfying resolutions. Worst of all, the audiences like their work more, and these upstarts are far more profitable than the city’s decent bards! Clearly, there must be some dark secret behind the success of these newcomers, and it’s up to the city’s true artists to find out what it is and expose the conspiracy! Or maybe the city’s bards have just become too hopelessly pretentious and derivative. It’s hard to tell. But investigate it they must! Failure is not an option! Victory, or...well, they’ll have to get day jobs or something. Original cover image generated by NightCafé.Master story list here.

The Lost Archon
One early spring afternoon, sixteen-year-old Reid is going for a walk when he finds a magical occurrence taking him to another world. A world where he is considered an impossible mage - and where he becomes ridiculously powerful quickly. Though he's happy for the adventures he can go on and the friends he makes, Reid also wants to find out how he got there and why, and if there's a way to return home to his parents. Reid's priorities in this new world are learning magic, going on a few adventures, dealing with his feelings for the cute wolfkin Terrence Windfang, and seek an audience with the gods. All but one of them, he finds, is significantly easier than he expected. This is a participant in the [April 2022 Royal Road Writathon Challenge]. The story is also concluded as of 4/26/2022. IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) This is a story about an OP guy doing OP guy things. There will be few fights that he struggles with, and he will rarely, if ever, find his life in peril. 2) This is a slice-of-life and adventure story, which means that there will be periods of chapters without any action or conflict, but also periods of chapters with battles and exploration/adventure. 3) There will be NO petty squabbles or conflicts going on in this story, because it is meant to be a fun one, not a high-tension, drama-filled story. So it will NOT be that. If you want lots of action or lots of conflict, then find another story to read because this isn't it. 4) There will never be an overarching evil/villain/conflict to deal with in this story. Ever. 5) This story will not contain sexual content as it will end after Book 1. As such, Reid and his future boyfriend will never reach 18+ years of age in-story, so they will never have sex in the story. There will also be no harem in this story. 6) This is a part of the Royal Road April 2022 Writathon Challenge. 7) This story takes place in its own story universe, with its own rules. Please keep that in mind when reading it and other stories.
