《Oh Baby》After the Glitter Fades
Advertisement
The long night had abruptly came to an end when Ginny started barking. Stevie's personal alarm clock got the pair up and now they had to face reality. Stevie was dreading having to have a real talk about all this. Would they get engaged? Did she even want to marry him? Was he going to move in? Her head was spinning with all of the possibilities.
"Good morning, angel," Lindsey looked directly at Stevie's stomach and leaned in to kiss her small belly. "And good morning to you, too," Lindsey kissed Stevie's forehead.
"Ok, so what now, Linds? What are we gonna do?"
"Well, I dunno. I assume you should make a doctor's appointment?"
"No, I meant with us, like are we together? What do you want to do, Buck?" Stevie hated having to have this conversation. She wasn't sure she was ready for what Lindsey would have to say.
"Well, I think it's only fair to this baby that his parents are together, no? That makes sense, I think. You know how much I love you, Steph. I won't let you or this baby slip through my fingers again. And I even think we should get married too." Lindsey ran his hands through his hair and onto the back of his neck, unsure of what her response was going to be.
"If that's what you want, I agree, I love you too, Lindsey Buckingham. So much." Stevie took a deep breath, relieved at his answer. She couldn't believe it. And he wanted to get married at some point too! The couple had talked about marriage quite a few times, but they never went through with it. She hoped that this time they would go through with it. The Buckinghams. The thought of that brought a smile to her Stevie's.

"Wait, did you say his? How are you so sure this baby is going to be a boy," Stevie retorted playfully.
"I just have a feeling about this! Imagine a little boy running around. I'll play baseball with him, teach him to swim, and of course teach him guitar," Lindsey's eyes were wide with daydreaming.
"Well, I think it's a girl! A little girl that will wear pretty dresses, have her Daddy's eyes, and she'll have the most beautiful singing voice, too." Lindsey reached his arms out and wrapped himself around Stevie. He sealed the moment with a kiss on her lips, solidifying his love for her and the baby, no matter if it was a boy or a girl.
"How are we going to tell everyone?" Stevie asked nervously. Christine was the only other person in the world who knew this and Stevie knew her parents would be upset as she and Lindsey weren't married, or even really engaged yet.
"We don't have to worry about that yet," Lindsey looked down at Stevie's stomach that was barely showing any change yet.
"My parents, I want to tell my parents. I'll fly them out, I can't tell them over the phone. I- I- Lindsey, I'm scared."
"Honey, you're a grown woman. I don't think your parents think you're not having sex."
"No, not about that. What if it doesn't-" Stevie's eyes start to fill with tears and she buries her head in Lindsey's chest. "I can't loose another baby. What if Don's was my only chance to be a mother? And I threw it all away?"
"Baby, don't say that. This will work out ok? I'm not going to let anything happen to you or to this baby," Lindsey tried his best to reassure the mountain of sorrow standing in front of him."
Stevie couldn't help but think back to a few years ago when she was with Don.

Thaellis A Kingdom Down Under
A kingdom down under, once it had prospered, expanded, built, and conquered until all that they thought of worth was theirs. Peace ruled for a time the people absorbed in their own self-satisfaction. But eventually, old urges returned. Conquest called, though this time there was no outside outlet to turn it towards. So in ages so long and distant the memories most couldn’t recall, the kingdom turned upon itself. War raged for many years, no one coming close to being considered a victor, it appeared that this self-destruction would go on till nothing was left. Many if given the chance would have claimed that would have been a mercy for this kingdom and its people. For as they killed, and butchered each other over things they already had. Vibrations traveled through rock and stone guiding things best left alone. Creatures came things of horror armed to the teeth with claws, fangs, and armor. Cities fell and were consumed not even the bones of individuals remained, for these creatures hunger knew no limits, had no end. The kingdom rallied together once more, what was left, they fought and fought but their Nightmare had no end. Their greatest, brightest minds worked their magic, carved into stone. Wards they called them, this would keep their Nightmares away. They abandoned attempts to fight and focused on walling every surface of the kingdom with these Wards. It worked mostly, an illusion of peace returned, one that crumbled often, but it was better than before, it was a bearable hell now. So here we start our story as ages have passed for a walled-off kingdom, hunted by a never-ending Nightmare. With a poor but deserving soul born into this world.

A Mildly Odd Reality Breaker
Omar receives an unexpected visitor who comes baring a gift—a "registration ticket"—in the form of a small metal card. The ticket is itself an offer to participate in the game, "Reality Break." Accepting this offer means that Omar will be able to perceive the true nature of reality where there is not one, but two dimensions of time, and in this second dimension history changes (and somewhat "frequently"). Along with this, he will also gain access to the "chronopause"; another reality that is not so much parallel to our own as it is perpendicular, which acts as both a place and the natural boundary between non-sequential points on the timeline. Using the chronopause, Omar will become a chrononaut with the ability to travel through time, and as a player, he will be given a cybernetic interface and his own portable extradimensional storage space. It's a strange conversation, but due to Omar's dismally short attention span, he only consciously hears that last bit about the portable pocket space, and that's only after the physics-defying void is opened in his living room and literally waved in front of his face. Reality is certainly stranger than most people realize, but then again, so is Omar. Thankfully, he responds well to shiny things, and for better or for worse, his chronic inattentiveness is the least of his psychological issues. Omar also has a mild form of "Oppositional Defiant Disorder" which presents itself as an occasional, arbitrary need to disobey others (especially authority figures). However, his oddest psychological issue by far is his "abnormally hyperactive" subconscious mind. Outwardly and consciously, Omar is a lazy, apathetic man-child prone to mildly asinine behavior. Subconsciously, he's some sort of genius capable of extraordinary feats of cognition. Most of the time, Omar is a (technically) functioning adult, but in order to live as such, he must rely entirely upon unusual abilities he's completely unaware of, despite the fact that he uses them regularly. Up until now, his life had merely been ridiculous, but now it was also a game. Note: The narrative style is that of a reliable narrator with a "3rd-person sarcastic" POV. This story takes place in the Reality Breakers/Chronopause universe.

Star Gazer
When the mist rolls in, most would either head inside, or brave it's perils via familiar terrain. But what if that mist holds secrets beyond which most could comprehend, let alone traverse? Mia, unequipped as she was, found herself in that very situation, but as danger approached, another came in time to save the girl from the unknown. Luke was a victim of the mist just as she was, and the pair had now begun a journey in a world home to only one of them from which a destiny was soon to be forged. ~~~~~ Star Gazer is high fantasy adventure set in a massive world within which our maturing duo of protagonists will be challenged to uncover truths few are aware are hidden at all. Elements of LitRPG are scattered within and function more as elements of certain character's abilities to read others, rather than a progression system by which our heroes will rely on. Updates will begin daily during premier week, but will slow down to 3 times weekly until further notice. Thank you for any and all support!
