《Quem Ri Por Último Ri Melhor》CAPÍTULO VINTE E SETE

-Vamos, Matt, não seja teimoso! – Lauren disse, me arrastando para dentro de uma barbearia no shopping.
Nós tínhamos acabado de sair de uma ótica e eu estava usando lentes de contato. Por incrível que pareça, eu gostei. Incomodava um pouco no começo, mas era bem melhor do que ter que ficar empurrando os óculos toda hora, ou ter que limpar as lentes dele por estarem embaçadas ou sujas. As lentes de contato definitivamente ficariam comigo pro resto da vida.
Quando entrei na barbearia, vi que não era um lugar comum. Era um estabelecimento muito bem estruturado, as pessoas estavam uniformizadas e eu me senti à vontade apenas por estar ali. De repente, saiu de trás de um balcão um homem alto, não muito forte, com cabelos e bigode totalmente brancos. Dava para ver que ele era muito novo para ter cabelos brancos, então deduzi que era platinado. O bigode dele dava voltinhas dos lados, e seus olhos eram quase tão azuis quanto os de Lauren. Ao ver Lauren, ele sorriu e deu um abraço nela, seguido de um beijo no canto da boca, quase um selinho. Não posso negar que eu fiquei com muitos ciúmes ao ver a cena, mas tentei não transparecer.
-Matt, esse aqui é o Evan. Ele é meu primo de segundo grau, somos muito amigos desde crianças. Ele é quem vai cortar o seu cabelo – Lauren me apresentou.
Estendi a mão para ele que apertou bem forte e deu um sorriso amigável.
-Então você é o famoso Matt – ele disse. – Lauren não para de falar em você.
Lauren corou um pouco e eu apenas sorri.
-Então – Evan disse. – Como vai querer seu corte hoje?
Me sentei numa cadeira alta e me olhei no espelho. Sinceramente, eu precisava mesmo de um corte. Porém, não sabia qual escolher, então apenas disse:

-Ah, não sei. Pode fazer o que você achar que ficaria melhor. Acho que Lauren também tem umas ideias.
Lauren sorriu ao ver que me lembrei dela. Evan assentiu e virou para Lauren, e os dois começaram a discutir baixinho sobre que corte fazer.
-Assim vai ficar excelente – Evan disse em voz alta.
-Eu te disse que eu daria uma ótima cabeleireira – Lauren ironizou.
Evan riu e em seguida virou minha cadeira, me deixando de costas para o espelho.
-Espera, eu não vou ver o que você vai fazer? – Perguntei.
-Só no final, irmão – Evan sorriu e me deixou bem preocupado.
Resolvi fechar os olhos e apenas esperar pelo pior.

Magitech Awakenings
In this world of Terrapia, myth states that Dragons are caretakers of the chaos wheel, a band of energy that encircles the world, penetrating through the very fabric of the dimension. They tame and convert it, not only to fuel their primal magic, but also to gentler forms that man and beast alike can tap. But now they have faded away, being sighted less and less the past couple millennia. With magic weakening, science has taken root and in many cases merged in a symbiosis with magic. Guppy Bright, a 17 year old young woman, is a technomancer apprentice living in the bustling city of Nolusburg trying to make ends meet. Apprenticed to the enigmatic and somewhat crazy Technomancer Friedrich BrassTuner, she participates in an experiment meant to tap a new rich source of energy. However something goes horribly wrong and a rip in the very fabric of reality opens in the workshop, sucking in her mentor and ejecting a dying white dragon. The dragon, after examining her, takes a gamble and entwines their souls, an act that causes the dragon, Barthurthalomalew Dresnarian Kratomanger Harrowhew Objuslorow, the 5th, aka Batty, to regress into a baby dragon, sealing much of his powers and memories in the process. This act also has profound effects on Guppy, her own magic is now crazily changed in ways no one, least of all her, understands. Guppy is suddenly plunged into a world of mystery, intrigue and politics, where everyone either wants to control, or eliminate her. Armed with little but her courage and unpredictable newfound magic how will she survive and protect herself and those she loves when everyone from techno radicals, magic purists, politicians and guttersnipes are out to get her. And those may be the least of her problems if Batty's fragmented memories are any indicator.
