《30 Days Challenge - Birdflash》26. Ugly Sweaters
Advertisement
[Dick - 20; Wally - 22]
Wally was happily whistling while going through his wardrobe. It was Christmas eve, so what wasn't to be happy about? His family and friends gather together to celebrate (but wasn't-) and Wally was looking for his ugly sweater (which was mandatory). Whilst going through his clothes, something suddenly obscured Wally's vision, making the world go dark.
Bewildered, Wally stumbled back and ripped the piece of fabric off his head, his hair now messily sticking in all directions.
Miffed that his hair is now ruined, Wally glared down at the offending piece that caused all of this, to stop and stare when he saw what it was.
It was a colourful sweater that hurt to look at. It had Christmas balls going along the edges and Nightwing's insignia spread across the chest with a small Christmas hat on its head. A sad smile bloomed on his face. It was a Christmas present he got from Dick years ago, back when he just started out as Nightwing.
Feeling the fabric, it was surprising how soft it actually was and bringing it closer to his face, he could smell cinnamon, coffee and chocolate.
The smell was faint and the memory even fainter, but Wally could remember a time, not long ago, where things were better. Back where it was just the two of them, in their little Bludhaven apartment, siting on the couch huddled together, drinking hot chocolate, and watching cringy Christmas movies.
His heart ached and felt a painful longing, just to experience that peace, that love, again.
Wally's vision was bleary as he stared down at that atrocious sweater. God, usually he is not such a sap, all that's sweaters fault.
Debating if the possible hurt is worth reliving the memories, Wally pulled on the sweater. He looked down and felt the soft fabric. It was like a gentle hug and if Wally closed his eyes, he could pretend that, just maybe, he is there, that everything is right again.

"Merry Christmas." He softly said to the empty room.
-------------------------------
Across the country sat a lone man on his bed, wearing a sweater with Flash's insignia on it. He smiled sadly, reminiscing in old memories when he suddenly felt a strange feeling.
"Merry Christmas, Wally," Dick whispered to the person that was not there.

The Youngest Divinity
The continent of Vaine is a place of technological and magical might. It is the pinnacle of human brilliance, and is more powerful than it has ever been—truly approaching a never-before-seen golden age of magic. But what if that was all a lie? Dominic, shipwrecked and confused, wakes up one day on the shore of a continent which shouldn't be there. No maps in Vaine show it; no sailors have ever reached it; as far as anybody knows, the continent of Hesia does not and has never existed. In the last thousand years, no one has left, and no one has made it in. And on this hidden continent, he finds demons—a race of people who are far more adept at magic than humans. As Dominic uncovers the lost history of the two lands, he must come face to face with kings, mages, gods, and the dark past of the most powerful organization in Vaine, which has long done everything it possibly could to keep those skeletons buried. And they're not the only ones who can keep a secret. YOU MIGHT LIKE THIS IF: ↠ You like long-running fantasy stories with an intrigue/mystery focus.

Seize the Sky
A missed opportunity...A second Chance....Justin McClain, a poor web-developer, is killed on the night he means to propose. Instead of dying he finds himself reborn into a child's body in a strange and alien world. Will he repeat his past mistakes or will he use his knowledge and Seize the Sky?This is going to be my attempt at a Wuxia/Xianxia/Cultivation Novel. I've been reading a ton of Chinese web-novels recently and Couldn't resist trying to write my own. This story will contain lots of action and martial arts and will most likely make the MC pretty OP, but that's sorta the point of wuxia novels. This is also going to be focused on pokemon like animals and will be somewhat along the vein of Long Live Summons although less haremy. It will contain mature content although I have no idea how much. Also, this is a secondary project for me. I've already got a novel on here I don't update enough so I'm treating this as a side project. Be prepared for very sporadic updates.
