《The Night Shift (Mike Schmidt x Reader)》11. Invasion

Fridge restocked - check.
Eat - check.
Now what? I couldn't think of anything else that I needed to get done. I guess I could clean up a little bit... Nah. I'm too lazy for that. I eventually decided to just go on a Steven Universe marathon. I opened my laptop and began watching the show.
Just as Peridot ran into Steven's bathroom, my phone buzzed. It was, of course, Mike. It was just the classic "what r u doing?", so I replied telling him about it. It eventually turned into me telling him all about my obsession with the show. He ended up recommending something called "Gravity Falls". I wasn't really into any of the Disney cartoons these days, but apparently this one was different than the rest of them.
Right as I resumed my marathon, I heard a voice from behind me. "'Sup?" It asked. I jumped out of my chair, the laptop falling from my lap. Shit, if that thing's broken...
It was Vincent. "How the hell did you get in my house?" I asked, trying not to scream. "Hmm. I have my ways," he replied. "Anyway, I heard that you had the day off. I decided to drop in for a visit."
"Vincent, get the fuck out of my house!" I yelled. He then proceeded to take the Freddy plushie off of my bed. "Hey, this is the gift the company gives new employees. You actually decided to keep it?" Vincent said, looking smug. "Yes. I love stuffed animals. Get out." I said. Vincent's usual shit-eating grin only grew wider. I pulled out my phone and quickly typed in, "Vincent in my house help" to which he replied with a shrug emoticon. Shit, he didn't know where I was. Wouldn't really make sense if he'd known where I lived.

Vincent jumped on me right as I read Mike's reply. I squealed and tried to writhe away, but his legs held me there pretty tightly. "Hmm, Mikey's been texting you? What's this about Steven..." he trailed off.
Once he was satisfied with reading through the conversation, he handed me back my phone and let me go. His grin looked a little more sincere. "Personally, Amethyst is my favorite," Vincent said. He then decided to...jump out the window.
Figures.
I let Mike know that I was alright before I once again resumed my marathon. He asked where I was, and I sent him the address of my shitty apartment building. I invited him over to watch Steven with me, and he agreed on the condition that we would watch Gravity Falls as well. Fine with me.
I leaned out the window that Vincent had jumped from. The purple man was nowhere in sight, but there was a note left on the windowsill. It simply read, "Bird Mom approves" in purple crayon.
What the hell?

Nexus
Caley Reid grew up without a home or family, an orphan in a system that was too busy protecting the children it watched over to actually care for them. To her, the words “family” and “home” carry a profound sense of loss and longing. She poured those feelings into her studies, walling herself off from the world and her emotions, becoming one of the best students her orphanage - and later her university - had ever had the pleasure of teaching. When she learns that her father has recently died, and that she is now due to come into her inheritance, it shakes her to the core. Desperate to learn about the family just beyond her reach, she puts her studies on hold to follow the trail her unknown parents have left for her. Now she must learn the secrets of her mother’s ancestral home…a home beyond her wildest dreams. And she must discover why her father sent her away when she was born, what ended his life, and what happened to her mother - before those secrets kill her.

Two And A Half Deadmen
Silver-Spruce is a very strange and very haunted town. Ghosts inhabit its buildings and walk its streets. Some of them friendly and sane. Some of them not so much. Alder helps ghosts. Helps them fulfill their last requests so they can move on to whatever comes next. Sometimes the ghosts aren't so friendly and have to be moved on by force. Alder does that as well. And he's gotten rather good at it too. After a particularly rough exorcism, he finds himself following a strange ghost to a local tourist attraction. And while Alder never means to find himself caught up in chaos, monsters, magic, and mayhem always seem to have a way of finding him. You want more specifics for what you're reading? Here you go: This is Urban-fantasy but a little bit of a different spin. Often the protagonists in such stories tend to be the bigger fish in their world, or at least far from small fry. Be they legendary boogie men or badass wizards (which is in no way a bad thing, I love a lot of those stories.) But I thought it would be fun to have a protagonist who's far closer to the bottom end of the scale. He has some magic, and it's potent in its own way. But he isn't the big dog or a fighting machine. Outside of his bubble of influence, our protagonist is essentially a normal human as far as powers are concerned. And while you should be warned that this story will get dark in some places it's (hopefully) balanced out by humor and the lighter stuff. I'm not sure how to end this synopsis section so I'll just say bye. Bye!

Son of Heaven is a tale that revolves around Zhuge Sai, a young man who is predominately driven by his thirst for knowledge and inexplicable origins. He, who values victory over his moral compass.
