I've been staring at a empty piece of paper for quarter of an hour now. Every single time I go to pick up the pen...all what I plan to say just suddenly fizzles out of my brain like popping candy. One minute it's there...and the next it's totally gone.
The only thing that changes within the forty five minutes of me re-enacting a Spongebob episode is my phone constantly chiming. It's mainly twitter messages from my followers - I accidentally put my profile back onto public - and I guess they've just established that. But then my phone vibrates as I watch the madness...through the notifications I see that Dan texted me on iMessage. I go straight to it...
It's really sweet to see and know that he's legitimately concerned about me.
With Dan I've learned that you have to repeat yourself with him. Dan's mind works at twenty miles per hour which is very impressive for a brain like his...
Dan doesn't text back I guess he got the hint to leave me alone - either that or he is stuck for conversation - that wouldn't surprise me either. I put my phone down on the table besides me and then sigh looking at the paper. I don't know how exactly to break the news to Ali about me being pregnant.
It's weird that I'm writing too him. Once upon a time he was my favourite sibling. Me and him was close and...things was nice. That was until me and Georgie grew up and his weird theories started.
I pick the pen up and this time resist the urge to put it back down...I just let my mind wander off without thinking of my sister or my brother...even Ali. I just think of Bee and how she needs more supportive family in her life.

If god forbid something happens to me and Dan at least I know that she'll have people to raise her up and...just generally be with her in life. Even if it is the same arsehole who abandoned me because Georgie deserved to be at Daisy's funeral.
Alistair.
I know we haven't talked in a while and I know that this could come as a shock - not only because I'm writing a letter - but because I have some news. You might want to know or you might not, it's okay. I want to tell you this because it's best if you hear it from me.
I'm pregnant.
Me and the baby (a little girl) are okay. Well...she's still underweight but we're fixing that issue. Her dad is a real nice guy. We broke up a couple of months ago but...he's matured in his own little way. We got a name for her too. It's Isabelle Stella Campbell Smith. Isabelle is just an excuse to call her Bee - she moves every time anyone says Bee. It started off with a coincidence but I swear she can hear us.
I just thought you should know since you're her only alive family on my side.
And I've been thinking about the last time we spoke when you told me Georgie...was gone...over texts. I want you to send me that note. It's mine.
I hope that you are well. Even if it doesn't seem like it...I do think of you. You're my big brother and there's been a few times this year where I have wanted to call you up and apologise for Daisy's funeral...but I know that I disappointed you and that you never want anything to do with me. I just want a catch up...I think that's what I want...I'm not sure.
If you're ever in London here is my new address...
I love you Ali.
Maze, xoxo

It's been a while hasn't it? Since I disappeared. Sorry this couldn't be under better circumstances, but let's just agree that it's better late than never. I've been finding my way back since then, traveling across worlds of magic, science, even eldritch locations. I've seen things you wouldn't believe, and some I'd prefer you didn't. I'll tell you everything, even what I became in the dark. A long, long time ago, hahah... Never mind. Let's just start. My intention is to explore every. single. world I can think of from scifi to high fantasy, hopefully forming an overarching storyline along the way. I hope to be able to explore most of the settings, most of the tropes, and play with them in multiple different ways. However, this also means that many of the tags will only apply for specific sections of the story... As the first arc is now completed, chapter titles will be slowly edited to include the world involved, and then any relevant tags. Also exists on wordpress here, will update both sides simultaneously. Constructive criticism welcome and much appreciated. 20/3/2018.

Noble
"Then, let joyous news be delivered to those who pass their lives in peace, For it takes only one twist of fate to throw their lives upside down And for those who unfortunate enough to encounter the whims of fate, Let it be reminded to them, that even their lives repeat a hundred times..." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lys Ravenlicht was no hero, nor was he a brave man. He was someone who had the better things in life and figured that he'd tread upon the path his late father had prepared for him as an appointed noble and a politician in his home country and he had no business whatsoever of being a hero. And yet, it took only one twist, one twist of fate, before all plans he had laid out for the rest of his life went down the tubes. Join him as he traverse the lands of Fymia, where the arcane had faded into the annals of time and yet persist in the most mundane of things. And as he found himself dragged deeper into a catastrophic series of events that would change his perception of the world, and the course of history for the world itself... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's comments: The story was meant to be a satire of the Japanese animanga tropes.... until it got out of hand to the point I'm not sure it's a satire anymore. I hope you can find enjoyment in it nonetheless.
