《Poetry and Clarinet (Wirt x Reader》Songs of the Dark Lantern; Part Two

(Y/n) POV
"Uh... hello." I awkwardly stand there there, as the people stare at the four of us.
"Hey there peach pot, what can I get for yo-" a plump, kind looking woman starts, until she notices Beatrice sitting on Greg's teapot. "Hey, what's with this bird you got here?" She narrows her eyes at Wirt and I, expecting some sort of explanation.
"I am Beatrice, these three sweet kids and I are- HEY!" Beatrice yelps as the woman begins to smack her with a broom. As bad as this sounds, I can't help but to laugh.
Beatrice shot me a death glare. "You'll die someday lady, and I'll laugh. LAUGH!" She shouts at the woman.
Woah, calm down Beatrice, I think.

After the highwayman sang a weird song, I notice a man sitting in a rocking chair and laughing. He reminds me of Geppetto from Pinocchio. I tapped Wirt on the shoulder to get his attention.
"Hmm?" Wirt hummed, his eyes meeting your (eye color) ones.
"Can you go ask that guy if he knows where Adelaide lives? He gives off good vibes." You ask him, tilting your head towards the toy maker man.
"Oh, Uh, sure." Wirt left your side and walked over to the man. They talked for a moment before the toy maker stood up and started swiftly dragging Wirt away.
A pianist began to play a tune, and the toy maker started to sing a weird song about marriage. You made eye contact with Wirt, who's eyes practically radiated 'help me'.
You decided to walk over to him to see what was going on, but the tavern keeper pushed you forward and you smacked straight into Wirt.
"Oh um, sorry," you said, trying to back away from Wirt because you felt like you were really invading his personal space. But the tavern keeper pushed you towards Wirt again, and the toy maker began to sing once more.

"Kiss her! Kids Adelaide!" The baker shouted from the corner of the room. Everyone in the tavern soon began to chant along with him, until every patron was yelling "kiss her! Kiss her!"
Not knowing what to do, you quickly pecked Wirt on the cheek. That seemed to satisfy the people, since they began cheering and laughing once more. You chuckled as Wirt's cheeks were dusted pink from your actions.
"I'm going to go make sure Greg's doing alright. He's eaten like twenty plates of food so far," you smiled.
"Uh, okay!" Wirt gave you a lopsided grin before turning back to the tavern attendants, presumably to get them to calm down.

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.
