《(TinCan) I Hate U.》rain
Advertisement
After breakfast, Tin and Can walked Lily and Rose to school. They had only two umbrellas so Tin and Can each carried one as the girls walked in between them.
It was a fun sight to see Tin joked around with the two girls and made them giggles. Can have never seen this side of Tin before. It's so refreshing and warm. Can never thought that Tin's smile were be so…so...
….beautiful...
Can snapped out of his thought. He blinked his eyes a few times and also surprised to why he would have such a thought in mind. Before he could think any further, they already reached the school.
Tin - I'll make sure to come pick you guys up. Have fun and study hard.
Lily and Rose - okay!
Tin gave his umbrella to Rose and waved goodbye to them as they ran inside the school.
The atmosphere switched to awkwardness and the rain wasn't helping either due to pouring nonstop. Can did offered to share his umbrella with Tin but Tin rejected the offer. He walked ahead from Can as he was already soaking wet. Can couldn't bear watching him so he ran and stood beside him, sheltering him with the umbrella.
Tin - (pushed Can with his elbow.) I said I don't need it.
Can - (hesitated) hey I don't want you getting sick okay.
Tin - (turned to look at Can) why? You worry?
Can was about to say something but Tin cuts him off.
Tin - don't be. I like to walk in the rain and I never get sick.
Can - wow, tough guy.
Tin could hear the sarcasm in Can's voice.
Can - I'm not worrying. I just don't want you to get sick later on when there'll be a chance we can go home.

Tin - (looked ahead) if that's the case then you can just go on without me.
Can - (gazed at Tin angrily) we were in this mess together, we will go back together.
Can's voice was steady and loud, almost sounded like a command.
Tin - I didn't mean to make you mad. If for some reason you returned home first, then I will eventually follow behind.
Can didn't want to hear it anymore.
Can - no, this conversation didn't need to happen. Both. Of. Us. Will return home together.
Can looked at the road ahead. They still far from reaching the resting area. How come the way back seems so long now? Especially when he stuck with Tin like this.
Tin - I'm sorry. I know you're not happy because we couldn't go to the station today and I also said stupid things to rubbed it in even more...it was foolish of me. I apologize.
Can - (glanced at Tin without turning his head) I don't get you. Am I the only person who's trying to get us back home or what? I feel like I'm the only one who is frustrating.
Tin stopped walking and made Can stopped also. The truth about Tin, he doesn't want to go back right now. He didn't want to face his reality. He wants to ease his mind here. He wants to heal first before going back. And because of all that, he is happy that today, it rain.
Tin - frustration won't get you anywhere.
Can - I know but at least act like you care a little so I don't have to feel so alone.
Tin's facial softens.
Tin - alone?
Can could hear the concern in Tin's voice.
Tin - is being with me make you feel lonely?
Can - (shook his head) no. I didn't mean it like that--

Tin - I'm sorry. I didn't know… I'll try to be better okay?
Can shook his head again, not wanting Tin to feel bad about himself.
Can - Tin, you don't have to try anything. Just forget what I said.
Tin held onto Can shoulders and pulled him to him. Can was surprised. He tried to pull away but he couldn't.
Tin - I can't forget.
Can's eyes met Tin's. The eyes that used to craved for priority was now showing nothing but innocent and caring. It actually made Can believe that he changes Tin after all.
Tin - you're not going to be lonely anymore. I'll make sure you get to see your family again.

DEATH QUEST
You are Hayden Waltess. You have no skills, no money, one family member, and a few good friends. If you don't find a way to make six hundred golden claws within the next forty eight hours, your little sister Shale is going to die. Steal the money? You can't break wards, and you don't know anyone who can. Beg for it? You live in Lecliss, the corrupt capital city of Raun. Beggars pave the roads. No one will notice an extra pebble. Earn it? Not through any normal job. You'd be lucky to make even a single golden claw in a week. No. There's only one way to make that kind of money in time. In a corner of the adventurer's guild lit by a dim lantern, three long, dusty, ragged pieces of parchment are pinned to a huge board on the wall. Each piece of parchment has an enormous sum of money written in bold at the top, an illustration in the center, and then countless names of adventurers below, each name written in a different hand, each invariably crossed out with a thin red line. The sign above the board reads: DEATH QUESTS An interactive action/adventure story with game-like and horror elements, set in the same universe as my other story, Gattican Drive. You can also read it on webnovel. Updates once every three days (unless it doesn't)

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
