or perhaps she was just imagining him there? again, the amount of sleepless nights was past the point of hallucination. she was literally dying, so at this point she really couldn't pick out the difference between what was real or not.
she studied the purple-haired boy a few seconds more, sighing and turning to face the front of the classroom again. "damn, those are some bags..." she muttered under her breath. what was it that he suffered from?
"you're really one to talk, hm?" the boy opened his mouth to speak dryly to the girl who had just dissed him.
y/n perked up, her head whipping to the side, "oh damn," she rested her chin in the palm of her hand, elbow resting on the flat surface of the desk. "we'll, you're certainly closer than i thought. like, woah."
turns out he was actually sitting next to her, when she'd originally thought he was at least a few tables away.
the boy raised his eyebrow, tilting his head to the side, "are you high or something?"
y/n laughed, "in a way..." currently she was on the medicine that helped her live for the next two weeks she had of living so... "i am."
the purple boy looked at the girl curiously, "ive always thought you to be the type."
the girl nodded in agreement, before the ran the sentence over in her head a few times, "hey!" she said. "first of all: rude. second: what do you mean always? have you been stalking me?"
"what?" the boy frowned shook his head, "no, you've been in my class all year. we've done a few assignments together, you know. seems you just dont pay attention."

"really? i don't believe you." y/n declared stubbornly. "you're probably messing with me, using my sleepiness to your advantage or something."
"that's ridiculous, l/n." the boy yawned.
oh shit, he knew her name.
"no it isn't! er... cute purple sleepyhead?"
"...do you really think that would be my name?"
"no, i just wanted to let you know you're cute."
the boy hummed, turning to look down at his papers, without a word. y/n sighed, feeling her eyes droop. if she didn't distract herself, she would go to sleep. how annoying.
"hey, what's your name anyway?" she turned to face the cute purple sleepyhead with a small, tired smile that screamed suffering.
"shinsou hitoshi." he replied simply.
y/n smiled, "hm, shinsou... what if i told you im pretty much dying and i need a friend to make me feel better?"
shinsou raised a brow, sitting up, "is this a cry for help?"
y/n shrugged with a small laugh,
"i just want a friend."
shinsou's purple eyes met the girl's e/c ones and a large hand went to rub the back of his neck, as he looked down. "me too."

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.
8 175The New Community
In the not too distant future, the world is settling down after world war 3, recovering and rebuilding. From the ruins, new communities and governments arise, along with Talents, people with extraordinary abilities. Amongst the groups is the Community, based in Europe, an inclusive group of towns that values everyone, regardless of Talent status. Leading the recruitment charge is Zoe, a powerful technomancer, one of the first generation of Talents. On her adventures, what will happen? Your votes will decide. A/N: I'll update chapters when I get to places where I feel it's right, I don't know where to go and want some direction or would like to have you help with the narrative in some way. Having others make choices forces me to be creative and I think that's when I'm at my best. Keep an eye out for polls in post chapter notes, they usually last 2 days. As always, love each other, and know I am grateful for every single person who reads my works.
