I had my suit on, a black and white striped onesie with a medium fluffy tail. I also had a cat ear hood on like Popee's but a cat. He chose this for me because he said I reminded him of a kitty cat. I shook my head to clear it and looked forward.
I was behind the curtains of the performance tent, it was a full crowd tonight. They haven't had a performance for a while so when people heard we were performing again they were excited especially since they heard there's a new member, that being me.
"Everyone please give it up for our newest family member to our circus! Y/N the trapeze act!" Papi announced, that was my cue to come out. I ran threw those curtains and threw my hands up smiling at the audience while waving.
Popee looked down at me from the pole he was standing on top of, he smiled at me, adoring me. I jogged to the pole opposite of him and climbed up, we looked at each other and nodded. I hooked my legs onto the bar quickly and hung upside down leaving my hands open. I swung towards Popee, he grabbed onto my hands and we swung down again, we did this for a couple swings then he grabbed onto his own bar and started swinging. I maneuvered myself back to swinging while holding on to the bar with my hands. Popee then switched and hung on his bar with his legs, upside down, swinging towards me. I got onto my pole and got ready, I swung down and up enough to a good height, timed with Popee. Then did a flip and grabbed onto his hands at the perfect time. The audience roared and clapped rapidly. We swung for a bit then got back to my pole and side hugged, bowing.

I was sitting behind the curtains of the performance tent with my hood off, suit unzipped some, and a towel around my neck, drinking water. Popee walked up to me "good job for your first performance baby, you did so well, im proud." He gave me a kiss on the forehead then on the lips. I was stunned but kissed back "th-thank you baby, you did great aswell," I blushed slightly and smiled at him. Popee blushed and ruffled my hair then walked away to get some water. I watched him walk away

Known as Jericho by many, known as Jack by others, he faces golems of flesh, his waning humanity, and the corruptor of worlds, Gaia.

8 184Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.
