"Hey..." Kyle smiles as I walk into the bathroom while he is taking a bubble bath. I can't help but smile while I open up the bathroom mirror and take out my tooth brush and toothpaste. "Hey..." I say back.
"Did you hear about the news?" I shake my head while I squeeze the white minty paste onto my purple toothbrush. "What news?" I casually say while brushing my teeth. Admittedly I haven't brushed them since Christmas Eve morning. We're meant to enjoy the holidays.
"Dan and Lana are parents." He always was a parent. "Oh...that's nice." Wait. Why am I acting like a bitch? Lana doesn't deserve that. "Sorry" I apologise - probably sounding like one of them - "I mean...what're their names? Do you know yet?" Dan smiles nodding his head. "Dan texted me this earlier and told me before they're going to publicly post about it. Holly and Jack." No way!
They're very cute names I suppose. I don't know what I was expecting.
"Yeah. They're healthy and happy. Dan joked that he thinks he and Lana 'broke' them. They don't cry and sleep through the night." I place a hand on my heart in awe, while trying not to puke at the strong toothpaste taste. Ew.
"And..." Kyle's voice trails off. "There's an and?" I joke while Kyle's reflection in the mirror rolls his eyes back. "And they're now engaged." Wow. They're tKing things fast.
I thought Kyle giving me a present of apartment keys yesterday was rushed. "I bet you any money as soon as they'll be able to fuck again she's going to get pregnant." Kyle bursts out laughing. I mean it's true. They're...that type of couple. "Dan's already told everyone that these are the couples last. Don't know what that means...maybe he is getting a mastectomy or something?" I shake my head. I don't think Dan will ever get that done.

"They're getting married and we're only just moving in together..." Ky says, but he doesn't sound happy. I spit the toothpaste out of my mouth and rinse it with cold water. "What's up?" I say after dabbing my mouth with the towel. Kyle this time doesn't hold back. "Will's finally get married...now Dan is. And I've just got my girlfriend to move in with me." I shrug my shoulders back.
"Will had to wait a long time before he proposed. Don't worry about it." I say before scrubbing my face with moisturiser. "Yeah I know. I'm not complaining. I just...wish I met you first instead of Dan." Kyle's always been there. He was at the January party I was at. Admittedly he was with his girlfriend but...he was there.
"Me too." I whisper before me and Kyle give each other that sad - but - reassuring smile.
At least we have each other now.

When Immortal Ascension Fails Time Travel to Try Again
What is my 1000-year-old monster self to do when I’ve failed my immortal ascension? Time travel — accidentally — and wind up back in my 9-year-old body, needing to re-cultivate, of course. But after that? Get REVENGE! Muahahahaha! But the idiot who killed me — also accidentally — was the main character of the dumb harem Xianxia I transmigrated into. But wait. Wasn’t he only 7 or 8 at this point in time? Well, since I can’t harm a child or the main character without suffering in some way, then I’ll just have to raise him better, faster, stronger, and loyal! Muahahahaha!

Blue Hills
Nothing had ever felt quite right for Alexander Adamson. He'd worked his way up to a job he could tolerate, a few casual friends, and even a nice little apartment that he could call his own, though it really wasn't. The problem was that none of it was satisfying. It was as though he were going through the motions of a life, rather than having one of his own. Of course, it didn't exactly feel right when he woke up in a strange bed in the middle of nowhere. Nor when he was told that he was now the proud owner and operator of a local farm. A farm that had belonged to a late uncle he'd never known. But with the first train out of town a full 'season' away, he had plenty of time to get used to the idea. Plenty of time, perhaps, to even get to like the strange little town of Blue Hills. I have a discord now. Marvel at my ability to somehow still be antisocial on the other side of a screen! Back from hiatus along with my other fiction. Chapters are on a Thurs/Sun schedule until book 3 of that fiction is completed, at which point I'll be updating this daily. At which point uh.... I dunno what I'm going to do.
