《HELPLINE》THREE
Advertisement
T H R E E // I S A A C
In case you hadn't noticed, I tend to overthink things. A lot.
And one thing I was thinking about a lot was Henry Waters. And his voice. And the way he called me cute.
(To be honest, it was kind of depressing that the most action I was getting was some guy on a cereal helpline vaguely complimenting me while he pissed himself at the fact I was calling the aforementioned cereal helpline. But still.)
I really wanted to talk to Henry Waters. I liked the fact he was called Henry Waters and not Henry. I liked how he was grumpy - but just enough so you think you can change him - and I especially liked how nice he was about Stefani-Beyoncé.
It did also help that he was gay.
I rang Lydia - my sister - for her advice but she didn't pick up. I took that as a sign to ring Henry Waters.
"It's you again, isn't it?"
"Hello, Henry Waters," I said sheepishly.
He sighed. "Just so you know," he announced, "I don't like talking to you. But it's my job, so I'm forced to. Don't think I'm in anyway enjoying this."
"Of course not," I grinned.
"No, I mean it. If there's one thing I hate, it's social interaction."
"Isn't your whole job based around social interaction?"
He paused for a second. "That's, um, not the point."
"I feel like we should get to know each other better," I told him.
"You do? I'm pretty sure that's unnecessary-"
"Do you have anything better to do?"
Henry sighed. "No."
I could hear Shania cackling in the background.

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!)
