●○●○
After mouthfuls of sushi, playful banters and talking about what happened in their lives these past few days, it was finally time to call their other best friend, Orson.
The light coming from outside was slowly seeping through the blinds but it wasn't very bright, giving the room a calming feel.
The two were both huddled in the couch, in each other's hoodies, as they wanted to act like the sappiest friends ever. Totally not because they were both clingy..
Charlie was on his phone, the light reflecting on his face as he clicked on Orson's contact number. "Bro, why the fuck am I shaking?" He chuckled as he leaned back, staring at Matty. "I've never been this nervous since that guy I locked eyes with at Starbucks." He complained, running a hand through his dark brown hair.
Matty scrunched her nose up, thinking for any reason why he's feeling that way, "Well... it's Orson. Do I even need to explain why?"
"True. Bitch is so tiny but scary." He then tapped the girl's number and waited for it to ring.
The sound of a call taking place sounded throughout the dimly lit living room and the two friends waited for the blonde girl to pick up.
"Hello?"
"Hey short-stack!" Charlie greeted out, a grin on his face.
"Did you call just to insult me because it's working." Orson muttered from the other line.
Matty shoved her face on a pillow to silence the laughter bubbling up her throat. She wouldn't see it coming! She thought excitedly.
Charlie kicked her with his foot and gave her a look that said 'Shut the fuck up she'll hear you, idiot!"
"Um I actually wanted to facetime..."
"Aw, can wittle Chawlie not sleep?"

"It's actually morning here right now, get your facts straight."
"What?" She said, sounding more alert, "You can't fool me it's literally 10 pm there. Go the fuck to sleep."
Charlie dramatically gasped, "Are you keeping tabs on me? That's such fan behavior, Orson."
"Fuck y—"
"Anyways, Matty can you hold my phone for a second while I get some water." Charlie had cut off, a smug look on his face. He intended to say Matty's name louder for the clueless girl on the other line.
Matty frowned at him before snatching the phone from his outstretched hand, "You didn't even try to build suspense." She said with a playful roll of her eyes.
"Matty?!"
"HEY! MY ACTING WAS GREAT." Charlie defended himself as he went towards the kitchen to fetch himself a glass of cold water. He was so offended that he didn't even fill the glass up as he was focused to go back quickly and defend his so-called acting skills.
"It's not my fault that you literally kept annoying me to call Orson and we didn't get to practice!" He called out.
"Just admit you suck at acting, Char." Matty yelled back, trying to focus on Orson who was at the the moment just freaking out. Her words all jumbled and not really making any sense.
Charlie appeared back in the living room again, a glass of water in hand while the other was on his hip that was sassily jutted out, "Why do you keep on talking shit? Did your mom never told you that lying is bad?"
"Is it ignore Orson Day? Because I've been talking these past few minutes and you fuckers keep ignoring me." Orson exclaimed. "You didn't even invite me!"

"Sorry, sorry! Charlie's being a drama queen." Matty sighed through the phone.
"Yeah. I heard. Ignore him—"
"What the fuck?" Charlie said, "You're so rude to me and for what?"
"Shut up I don't want to talk to you." Orson snapped at him before continuing her chat with Matty, "What the hell? How are you? Why is he there?" She began to ask, ignoring Charlie who she could hear sulkily making comments in the background.
She knew about what happened on Matty's stream and tried to reach out to to the girl, the same way Charlie did. She even tried to book a flight but that got crossed out as she was ordered to fly out to Paris for a sudden shoot. She wasn't happy about it and tried to back out but her manager said it was final. She didn't really have a choice and she knew if Matty found out she dropped a big project just to visit her she'd feel ten times worse, so even if it pained Orson to go for the shoot, she had to do it.
"I'm alright. Don't worry about me, Roo."
"I'll always worry about you, Tams. You're my friend. I care for you, you bitch."
"I was about to cry. Way to ruin the moment." Matty commented, giggling lightly as she leaned back on the couch. Her smile was so infectious that Charlie, although still offended, copied the wide grin that was on her face.
"Wait, wait. I want to see my best friend's face. Facetime me right now." Orson ordered. Sitting up from her bed as she had just woken up herself. She let out a yawn and winced at the loud crack that came from her back as she stretched.
"Ok miss ma'am— Whoa, Charlie! What the fuck!"
Charlie snatched his phone back before clicking his camera on, "It's me. I'm the best friend." He said before waving energetically towards Orson who was pretending to be disgusted with him.
"You're such a child." Matty whined, pushing him away from her as he went to sit closer so that Orson could see them both.
Charlie still went to squish himself beside her and held the phone up towards their faces before giving up and handing the phone back to Matty, "You know... I came here to have a great time and you guys are just straight up bullying me right now."
"We're just stating the facts, Char."
"Facts? Bitch you're spreading false information 'round here—"
"Not gonna lie but you're being dramatic." Orson chuckled.
"Let the baby have his moment, Roo."

Of Men and Dragons, Book 2
Jack, S'haar, and all their family are back. After crashing his ship on an underdeveloped world, Jack found friends and family among the terrifying cat-lizard natives of the world, but now mere survival is no longer enough. They must carve out a new home for themselves in the landscape of the now rapidly changing world. Raiders, politics, and even nature threaten their happiness and their lives while they struggle to deal with the nightmares and traumas of yesterday. They'll need to depend on each other more than ever if they hope for their new home to have any kind of future. In case you missed it, here's book one. ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

Binary Progression: Torrented Edition
This was ment to be the self-published 'real' book of Binary Progression; turns out there isn't much of a market for this kind of story... that and it sucked! As such I am writing another (more successful) series but this was just laying about my book folder so I'm posting it here, please forget the fact I said it sucked, pretty please. JohnWillStab is the poorly-named shut-in on a quest to get into MMOs after a failed online career backfired leaving him uninterested in his speciality, strategy games. He discovers an old, abandoned game with an active, albeit very eccentric, community of no more than five-hundred players on a single server maintained by an unknown individual. Unbeknownst to him, the game he found is more than just an ordinary WoW clone and after many adventures with his group, they make the terrifying discovery that after two full volumes this story becomes a god damn isekai. What’s worse, JohnWillStab, the number-one edgelord on the server is somehow ending up in positions of power despite literally being an undead rogue with evil magic tentacles! Will John’s edginess ruin the isekai? Why does the doctor have the highest kill-count in the game? Is 👑 really a valid character you could use for your username? Can the chef perform an exorcism? Why is God asking John for chicken nuggets? Really, he could just spawn them in - in fact, we saw him spawning food in before!
