*First Person*
I was on mine and Popee's shared bed, watching some of my favorite youtubers or just random things I found. Popee was out on the training grounds with Keda trying to get better at sword swallowing. I could hear his muffled yelling along with Keda's panicked yapping. Bombs started going off "jeez can he ever leave that poor dog alone?" I sighed pausing the video and setting my phone down. I got up and walked out of the tent, seeing popee run around chasing Keda with bombs. I looked around the place, till a person caught my eye at the gate entrance. They seemed to be checking it out along with the chaos Popee was causing, I figured I might as well see what they want. I walked over to the stranger, once I was in view they look towards my direction. I waved to get their attention "Hey! Need something? You lost?" I asked them arriving in front of them. Up close I notice they seem slightly familiar 'hmm a boy, he seems to be my age. Why does he look so familiar?' "Y/N is that you? I havent seen you in years! Things have changed huh." The boy gave a warm smile. I paused "B/N? What brings you here? Im surprised you even remembered me." I gave a small laugh "here come in, dont worry they wont bite. Well maybe one will.." I sweatdropped with a tiny smile while opening the gate for him. "Haha thanks, it's okay I can handle it" he said with a smirk, I smiled and walked in front. "This is our circus, Wolf Zircus. Which consists of those two and a father, who looks like a sun man. Weird yes but so are the others. I am also apart of it as you can see." I explained giving B/N a small tour of the grounds, Popee and Keda were still playing 'tag' but I could tell Popee was getting tired. "Yo wait! Are those trapeze beams?! Y/N we should do some tricks! Just like when we were kids!" Its true, me and B/N used to be close when I first came there.
*flash back*
"My name is B/N! Whats yours?" A boy came up to me, around my age, small with black slightly spikey hair. Pale skin with blue eyes, scraps and bandaids all over him. A freckle or a couple scattered on his face. "It's Y/N. Why are you asking? Trying to humiliate me with your pity?.." I responded while looking away with my arms crossed. The boy's smile faltered "No, why would I do that? I want to be your friend! You seem nice and I don't really like anyone else here. They're all snobby." He brought his head into my view, I looked at his eyes, 'not lying, seems honest.' "Fine, I guess we can be friends. But don't say I didnt warn you." He looked confused "warn me about what?" I turned and started walking "nothing."

*time skip*
"Y/N come here! Lets do some tricks on these! It's gonna be fun!!" I looked over to B/N at the monkey bars, he was upside on a bar. "Okay, lets be careful though." I walked over and got on the bars, swinging to him. I was a couple spaces away before I started swinging, his arms were outstretched waiting to catch me. I got a good momentum and swung for it. I outstretched my hands and caught onto his arms, still swinging slightly then faster to swing onto bars behind him. I caught onto them and dropped "You did amazing! We could be a great team!!" B/N praised me while getting down from the bars.
*present*
I shook my head and looked at him running towards one of the beams. "Yeah, good trip down memory lane." I sprinted over to the other side. "You sure you still can do this Scratches?" A nickname I gave him when we were younger, all because he was always covered in them. "You bet I can Sniffles." He smirked, a nickname I got cause I was always crying when he found me.
He grabbed onto the ring handle and started swinging, then switching to his legs in the handle, hanging upside with his arms stretched waiting for me. I grabbed the handle and started swinging, once I got a good momentum I did a flip and grabbed onto his forearms perfectly with us still swinging. "Damn you've gotten better. Guess working in a circus does train you." He laughed while looking down at me, I cracked a smile staring at his face. 'All these years..'
"Who's this?" I looked over to see Popee standing at the bottom of the net staring at B/N quite intensely. I looked back and forth "oh, Popee! This is B/N, a childhood friend of mine from my orphanage. He came here randomly so I decided to show him around." I smiled then swung us to the beam to get down, B/N following after me. We climbed down to meet Popee, who was still staring at B/N with a stern look. I walked up to him, giving him a hug "Are you done torturing Keda now?" I looked up to him, looking into his eyes. Popee looked down at me "for now. I'm going to bed, don't be long." He kissed my forehead then headed to our tent, I watched him walk away with a confused look. "Soo you two together?" B/N interrupted my thoughts, bringing my attention to him. "Uh yeah, 2 years now." I smiled, he nodded with a smile back "you're cute together, never thought you'd pull someone." He snickered softly, I gasped "What?! How dare you!!" I started chasing him as he started running around the grounds laughing.
"IT WAS A JOKE STOPP PLEASE! IM SORRYY!!" He yelled after I've been chasing him for a bit. I laughed "TAKE IT BACK!" I started running faster, "OKAY OKAY I TAKE IT BACK!" He stopped running, laughing with his hands on his knees trying to catch his breath. I didnt stop and tackled him to the ground. "HAHA! GOTCHA!" we fell over chuckling.

"Y/N, it's getting late, get to bed you have training tomorrow. I'll get this young man a place to sleep." Papi said leaning over us on the ground. "Okayy, goodnight B/N I'll see you tomorrow." I smiled and got up sprinting towards mine and Popee's tent.
I closed the entrance and started changing, Popee was already in his night clothes passed out on the bed. His one arm under his head while the other is on my side. I slide under the blankets and his arm, facing away so we were spooning. He wrapped his arm securely around me in his sleep, "mine.." Popee murmured. I laughed softly "yes, Im yours." I said softly while putting my hands over his and drifting into sleep.
"Hey! Morning B/N!" I shouted to the boy, who was doing stretches next to the trapeze beams. He looked over to me jogging towards him, "Morning Y/N! How'd you sleep?" He smiled. "Great! How about you?" I asked while starting to stretch my arms and legs. "The same, so sun man decided that I'll be helping you train today. I guess he somehow saw us yesterday do that small trick?" I looked over at him "yeahhh he always sees everything..somehow.." I smiled nervously. "But hey! Im glad you are helping me today! Just like old times right?" I laughed finished with my stretches, I started climbing up the right beam. B/N smiled "Yeah, just like old times." He climbed up the left beam. "Lets just start with swinging and switching handles for a warmup, sound good?" I asked, cracking my knuckles then grabbed on the ring handle. B/N nodded and did the same.
"Damn this is alot of fun, you do this everyday?" B/N smiled, it's been a couple hours since we started. "Not everyday but mostly every week, need the practice for shows!" I smiled back. We both got down the beams, I grabbed a water from the cooler next to the ladder and tossed it to B/N, "Thanks!" He replied, catching the water. I nodded and grabbed my own, chugging it but not much so I didn't puke. I also grabbed small towels from the cooler, there was much ice in there so they weren't too wet. I tossed one to B/N and grabbed mine. We sat down on a blanket near the net, cooling off.
"Ahem" I turned to see Popee standing with his arms crossed, next to the blanket looking at us. "Oh hey Bunny! What's up?" I smiled. "Can we talk for a moment." He asked with a stern expression, my smile dropped slightly "uh yes, sure my love." I got up and walked with Popee to our tent.
"So what's wrong Bunny?" I asked sitting on the bed, patting a spot next to me for him to sit. He sat down and looked at the floor with his hands on his lap hanging. I held onto his wrist gently while looking at the side of his face, trying to look at his eyes. "I feel like you guys are hanging out too much." He said casually. I flinched a little, caught off guard. "Why is that?" I asked, Popee looked at me his eyes pouring into mine. "You barley notice me now, you're always laughing with him, you're playing around and training with him." Popee said it so casually but I could tell he was upset. "Do you think I like him?" I asked softly, he nodded without breaking eye contact. I sighed "I don't, I just havent seen him since the orphanage, its been years. He got adopted a year before I ran, he was the only friend I made there. I promise you, you're the only one I love." I smiled, gently holding onto his hands. Popee looked away onto the ground, he seemed to be in thought. "I'll break him if he tries anything. I'm not loosing you to a lower person." He looked back into my eyes then kissed my forehead. " I love you too much." He said getting up and leaving the tent, I assume to bother Keda. I sighed, getting up to go back to B/N.
"Hey sorry- what are you doing?" I asked B/N, he was towards the entrance gate. He turned to me "oh! I better get going, my parents will probably flip if I stay out longer. I told them I was going to a friends house for the night yesterday." B/N smiled, "Ohh, okay well uh.. I'm sorry, Popee thought- he thought I liked you and he was jealous I guess since we spent so much time together yesterday and today." I explained to him. "Oh- shit, Y/N im sorry, I would never do that to you or him. I respect your guys' relationship and plus, you're my best friend." B/N smiled nervously, I gave him a hug goodbye "thank you, for being my friend through everything. I hope to see you again." B/N was shocked slightly but hugged back chuckling "Im always gonna be here, I'll visit you soon, I promise." We let go, B/N walked out the gate, waving bye, as I did the same smiling.
"Popee come on, leave him alone!" I yelled at the blonde bunny boy. Who was yet again, chasing Keda with bombs. This time, for Keda accidentally knocking me over while doing a trick. I sighed, giggling. "Only you."

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.

The Book of Rune
If you like moderately well-researched semi-medieval military logistics with some fantasy twists, and also conspiracy, and exploration, and violence, and maybe a dash of road movie, hey, Ruen just might be your thing. Plot-wise, basically there's a guy who got fired by Death, a kid with pyrotechnic tendencies, and a slave general who wouldn't mind retiring but ended up on a mass suicide mission. If you were looking for a less TL;DR version, a guy who got fired by Death meets a kid with pyrotechnic tendencies, and they try to get the guy un-fired while also trying to come to terms with death together (ooohhhh, look, I'm deep). Meanwhile a slave general does something stupid and ends up being sent on a suicide mission, and he tries to wreak havoc and save lives at the same time. The threads come together, I swear. This is a rough draft of a fantasy semi-book that I've had in the back of my head for some time. I've written a variety of short stories set in the world over the past three years, and I finally kicked myself into writing the actual story. Very much a slow work in progress. Occasional violence (okay, well, maybe more than occasional), occasional foul language.
