《》Jury Duty
Advertisement
Always a delight when that summons appears in the mail, right?
Let's see how they weasel out of this one.
-(In unison) "TOO YOUNG AGAIN FOR THIS SCENARIO"
-"Too bad. I kind of wanna go do jury duty"
-"Are you kidding? It's totally boring. You sit there for hours and nine times out of 10 you get a dumb case like insurance fraud or something"
-"Maybe. Maybe you get the guy who murdered a bunch of people and you get to send him to the electric chair!"
-"Watch it. You're talking about my family, bro. And, by the way, the electric chair won't work on us."
-"Lethal injection, then."
-"Hah!!!! Try again, sucker"
-Does not want to do jury duty because he's got a fuck of a work schedule and these trials can drag on for months
-During jury selection, the pool is told that they will be hearing a murder case--some dude who killed another dude's family
-Kurapika smiles to himself, raises his hand, and promptly gets himself excused due to an inability to be nonbiased
-Also does not want to do jury duty
-Tells the judge he is on medical staff and they can't spare him right now for any length of time
-The judge says "Take a night shift"
-Shit
-Examines the jury duty summons when it comes in the mail
-Uses texture surprise to change the name and address to "Illumi Zoldyck" on Kukuroo Mountain
-Drops it back in the mailbox with a note: "Delivered to wrong address"
-"Fuck a duck! How did I get summoned?"
-(Hisoka) "Who knows. Probably the DMV."
-"I don't drive, asswipe! I have butlers for that"
-"Well then it must be that you voted in the primaries last year. They get you through that, too"
-"I was doing my civic duty!"

-"Well, now you get to do it again!"
-Is a little nervous about this because, duh, he and the legal system don't really mix well
-But because he's hip slick and cool, he figures he can just disguise his appearance by tying a scarf around his forehead.
-There! That'll do it. Nobody will recognize him as the infamous leader of the deadliest gang on earth now
-Once jury selection begins and he is being interviewed, he throws in a shit ton of legal terms like "shepardize" and stuff, which irritates both the prosecution and the defense, and they end up dismissing him.
-Refuses to take his mask off during jury selection
-Pretends he doesn't understand the language the judge is speaking
-Responds only in "Feitan" language
-The judge thinks he's a royal pain in the ass and it's Friday afternoon, so he dismisses him
-Gets selected for the jury
-The case is a huge murder trial
-Shalnark ends up sending Sedokan, the psychotic bomber who somehow managed to escape Trick Tower and a 200-year sentence only to go on and kill gazillions of other people, to the electric chair

46 Year Old Syndrome
The daily Litrpg journal of a fairly average 46 year old man in a world where hundreds of thousands of people suddenly have a super power.Follow him as he learns skills, runs away a lot, suffers crippling headaches, avoids reading his titles, and tries to avoid breaking his body that didn't get enough calcium and vegetables.[Disclaimer 1: Despite the following, I will fix any typos pointed out. This is a writing exercise so chapters are mostly first drafts, otherwise I'd end up rewriting each chapter for a month or more with no real changes. My goals are a steady output by not using perfectionism as a procrastination method. I've already got laziness and additions to reading/games, I don't need a 3rd reason to procrastinate.][Disclaimer 2: The main character is a more normalized version of me, with 170% less laziness installed, and a few buffs like greater courage. Other things like having a job are partially similar. No other characters are based on real people because most people I know are either too normal to be useful or too fucked in the head to be believable.]

8 185Tails In The Water (BXB)
Calum was happy. Despite something that happened when he was a child, he felt content with his life. He had a good twin brother, an amazing father, and was doing decently in college. But the night after he had finished freshman year, he saw something. Something far from normal, something extraordinary. Something... supernatural. Aka wanted something more. He needed something that wasn't in his life. When he saw Calum, he knew that he was the missing puzzle piece in his life. But he couldn't approach him. Not when he was something that was considered a myth in the world. When they meet, Aka and Calum find themselves and their friends and family brought in the middle of a division between humans and the supernatural.

(previously titled The Vampires Human)"Awe pretty baby, look how cute you look all tied up and crying for us," he softly stroked my face, but the smirk on his lips made me shiver. He turned to look at them, "What should we do with you now?" He asked, lowering himself to my face. I stared at him wide eyed, listening to the others circle around me like lions ready to pray on a lamb. I can't hide my arousal from them, they can sense it, even if I lie, they'll call my bluff. I bit my lip, staring into his red eyes. "Punish me?" ~•~This book contains sexual content, age gaps, light bdsm, and second hand embarrassment. If you don't like submissive female leads, this isn't the book for you.READ THE DISCLAIMER.(cover by @asweetprincess )
