《》On The Road Again
Advertisement
I believe we did road trip as a scenario back in the Vol. 1 book, but in this particular case, you will be stuck in the car for hours with just one of them. And he's driving you up the wall and you still have like 10 hours to go before you reach your destination.
Here is what you argue about.
(Side note: I would just like to say--based on what I saw during an innocent search for a header image of Chrollo and Kurapika in the car--that the Chrollopika ship and its resulting fan art is the most depraved NSFW level of freak mentality I have ever seen. It makes Hisoillu look like Backyardigans. Woooeee kids. Don't say I didn't warn you.)
-"Okay, we can get Slurpees, we need to get gas anyway"
-"No, we don't need to go to Taco Bell, you just ate"
-"No, come on, we don't need to go through the drive-thru."
-"Seriously? You can't hold it for a little longer? I told you not to get the Big Gulp, just the regular size"
-"Come on, guys, quit messing around back there, I'm trying to concentrate on the road"
-"Kil, dammit, quit shocking the back of my neck or I'm going to get us fucking totaled"
-"NO WE ARE NOT THERE YET!!!!!"
-He insists that the route he mapped out on his app is superior to yours, and will get you there at least half an hour faster
-You point out there's an accident on his route. "That'll put us back a full hour"
-"No, by the time we approach the accident, it'll be dissipated and we'll breeze right through. I adjusted for that"
-"No way. We are taking the 15 and that is it, okay?"
-You're screaming at each other like unhinged fools by the time you finally get there, but it turns out he was right

-"What hotel are we staying at tonight?"
-He names it
-"That place is crazy expensive, what were you thinking?"
-"Who cares? This is vacation"
-After a prolonged and rapidly escalating argument, he finally tells you to go camp out in the woods, "You goddamn troglodyte"
-About halfway into the extremely dull road trip, you look over at him and suddenly out of nowhere realize you hate his guts
-"Why are you such a narcissistic, self-centered, rude, fucked-up piece of crap?" you scream, pounding the steering wheel with one fist
-You don't argue about anything
-He just sits there
-You're bored as hell, but at least it's peaceful
-"I'm driving"
-"The hell. I'M driving. This is my car"
-"No! I said it first"
-"Tough shit, I always get to drive, deal with it"
"Fine!" You fling the keys at him
-Once you get in the car, he fiddles with the stereo
-"Now you get to choose the music, too?" you scream
-For reasons unknown, he insists that you only drive at night, which you hate because you tend to nod off at the wheel and you have terrible night vision. You don't understand why he can't just be a freaking regular person for once and drive during the day
-"I'll drive the whole way"
-"Once you make up your damn mind, you are stubborn as a mule, you know that?"
-As usual...wait for it...he's the only one in the bunch who is normal
-You take scheduled 2-hour turns at the wheel, he stops at regular intervals for bathroom breaks, avoids traffic, and you enjoy pleasant conversation the entire way
-"I really needed a bigger part in this series, didn't I?"

The Great Erectus and Faun
The Great Erectus, otherwise known as "The Big Guy" is NOT a god. Don't call him that. It will tick him off. He and his newfound apprentice/sidekick the definitely not a creation goddess Faun have a little problem. The Big Guy's universe is blowing up. Faun might have had something to do with that. (She feels awful about it BTW) They must rush about the unraveling universe saving (or judging) worlds as the end of all things is bearing down upon them at the speed of light, so they have a bit of time but really can't mess about. Along the way they will encounter Lovecraftian horrors, divine ex-girlfriends, surly AI's and a host of other hassles. Enjoy such delights as the complete destruction of the universe, a children's "Christmas pageant" except where "the greatest story ever told" involves an eldritch horror from another universe, and an innocent misunderstanding concerning the exact definition of a "red dwarf". Existential dread! Lovecraftian comedy! It's as much madness as can be shoved into a single work and still remotely make sense! If you enjoy completely off the hook lunacy, this one is for you!

Since then I've begun writing an original novel, carrying over the characters from here, called 'UnderCurrent'.These stories can be read without knowledge of UnderCurrent and likewise it can be read without knowledge of this.Optimally however it may benefit you to read UnderCurrent to have complete context, the following are some words that may not always be in all of the stories should you choose to skip from tale to tale;Vijaik - A blanket term for mechs made of regular metals. They come in a variety of designs.Casnel - Specifically refers to any mech made of the rare metal 'Goibniu'. They are exceptionally advanced and powerful machines.Bhaile and Abhaile - The planets of UnderCurrent's people.IAFS - 'Independent Alliance of Free States', a rebel faction backed by private corporations, seeking change for the solar-system.TSU - 'The States Union', ruling body of all controlled space, known for often-times being callous and extreme in method.Remembrance - A somewhat 'wild-card' faction made up of former rebellion survivors operating from the 'Remembrance' continent. ----Thanks for reading😊👍.
