Context: Austin and eteled are frenemies
Eteleds pov
It was a usual day in the wii.
I was sat at the back of the mii channel, lying against the wall, when suddenly the mii channel went pitch black and the music cut off.
My eyes darted around the channel in search of any kind of light, feeling my heart rate increase.
I felt tears sting my eyes.
I knew I was scared of the dark, but c'mon.
I'd been though hell and back and I still get scared by the dark?
Dumbass.
I dragged my knees to my chest and my hands over my head, hoping the light would return soon.
Austins pov
I was walking over to the mii channel to piss off eteled as per usual, but as I walked closer I noticed;
Where's the near blinding light?
Where's the never ending music?
I walked into the mii channel, confused.
It was pitch black, but because my eyes glowed slightly, I was able to see a little. Not a lot, but enough to see whats what. It was almost completely silent, except for the quickened breathing.
Was that eteled?
Of corse it was dumbass. Who else would it be?!
I stopped bullying myself and went to go check on him.
He was sat at the back of the mii channel with his arms wrapped around his head and his knees locked tightly to his chest. I walked over to him, being partly made of metal, it made a lot of noise. Especially since there was no annoying music playing in the background.
He looked up at me, growing more tense.
Was he crying?
"Are you scared of the dark?" I asked
He wiped away most of his tears and sighed, lowering his legs.
He answered bluntly.
I sighed and got down on my knees.

I knew he'd probably push me away but it was worth a shot.
I wrapped my arms around his waist and pulled myself closer.
I expected some bitchy remark, but instead there was nothing more then a stunned silence. I felt his breaths slow, his face growing hotter.
Eventually, he hugged back and fell asleep, I soon followed after.
Time skip
I woke up, cold.
As I opened my eyes more I remembered where I was. With eteled in the pitch black mii channel.
I felt him shivering, so I pulled up the control panel and coded in a blanket.
I wrapped it around the two of us and fell back asleep.

The Dawnfire Archives
It begins in the endless wastes, with an unknown man arriving at the bottom of the tallest mountain in existence. A mysterious voice provides few directions, bringing more questions than answers. Regardless, after choosing a name and weapon... the man begins to climb. He will not be alone on this journey. A young individual from a different reality has also made his way to The Climb. But what does their arrival bode for the people of this world? And where does climbing the mountain truly lead? This is my second novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the third being "The Card Thief of Culnivar". This story is much more GameLIT than Xianxia, and takes place in a different setting with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.

The Arcane Fanatic
"A strange thing Drives us all..." An unknown voice echoes out through seemingly darkness. "The will to live." "But what is it to truly live? It is different for everyone but for me it is magic." "To feel the power at my fingertips and see mysteries unfold. To create and manipulate magic in a way that has never been done before. To be a pioneer of magic... that is what I live for. --- In the world known as Arcane, we follow a young gentleman that goes by the name of Max Blacklock. The strange thing about Maxwell is that the soul that is currently inhabiting his body isn't the original! A stranger with no recollection of his memory or thoughts takes place in a near-dead Max and takes to the world like a fish in water. Mysteries lay in the world of arcane in spades and Max will be the one to find them with his thirst for knowledge. But will Max find the mysteries that lay in his mind, body, and soul? This book is just for fun and to practice my writing skills. My previous book met me with frustration after sitting for hours in a day trying to get words to come out. It became something that just wasn't fun to me anymore. So here I'm going to try and just have fun writing a story I would have loved to read. If you want to read what I write then be my guest. I love to critique and hope that I can get better through writing this story but I don't know if I will be able to keep a stable upload schedule until I get into the flow of things again.
