"Corpse?" The small girl chirps as she twirls the ring on my finger "Yeah?" I sigh tiredly "Why do you- Why did you come to see me?" I furrow my brows "Why wouldn't I?" She shakes her head and winced, grabbing her stomach and curling up against me. I place my hand on her stomach "Did you take some pills?" She nodded "this morning when you texted me at 6am" I picked up my phone "It's only half past nine. Can you take them again?" She sighed "Yeah. I didn't take any this morning. The doctors gave my stronger ones but i'm too scared to- Oh fuck, too scared to take them" I shook my head and stood up resulting in her letting out a small whimper "Hey, in coming back. Where are they?" Her eyes soften "kitchen counter" I nod and walk into the kitchen to grab them.
GHOSTBABY/SAOIRSE'S POV
"take" Corpse handed me a pill and a glass of water "Only side affect is drowsiness, you'll be okay." I rolled my eyes but appreciated the efforts. I swallow the pill but close my eyes, i'm not the best with pills. Usually choking on them and almost - or actually throwing up. "Corpse, can you-," I sigh not wanting it to sound weird "Can you out your hand back on my stomach?" He smiles softly and gets back into the bed beside me, placing his hand gently on my stomach and softly rubbing it with his thumb. "Very comforting," I mumble laying my head on his chest.

brought to you by ✨Corpses handwriting✨
"Good morning" Corpse mumbles still gently rubbing my stomach. My brow furrows and he chuckles "It's not actually morning, it is like 2pm? i don't know" I shut my eyes and get closer to him. "You're not gonna be able to get any closer. do you want another painkiller?" I nod and roll onto my stomach with my face in the sheet. "You're gonna need to breathe baby" Corpse stands up and walks out of the room. me being a child - even though i'm 21 - I followed him. Like a puppy or a shadow or something that follows someone.

"Here you go," I take the pill and water from his hands and manage to take the pill without throwing up. "Why did i have to be the one to get ill?" I mumble walking into my utility room to grab my sheets. "Make a stack, PepeLaugh, got all of these bitches mad" I sing to myself as i struggle with the fitted sheet. I keep mumbling the song, still struggling, when i hear corpse at the door "Are you singing my song?" I nod "Seán sent me it 2 days ago and i was hyper focused on it and i learnt all of the lyrics but i like white tee more. it's my vibe." i sigh realising i was rambling on.
"Who's that?" Corpse points to the TV currently playing the crown. I glare at him "Princess Diana" He nods and goes back to petting Ivy. "She's treated so badly." I whisper shaking my head at the TV. I keep watching until i feel my phone vibrate.

@GhostBaby_official
Corpse is the imposter.
"Frick you." I mumble throwing a pillow at him "That's a hate crime," I shake my head and return my attention to the TV. "Bap bap renegade Richard Head" I hear corpse saying and then laughing. I look over to see him recording a video with his phone pressed into the pillow, meaning they could only hear him and not see anything. "Shut the fuck up" i groan rubbing my eyes "Oh my goodness, did Saoirse just cuss at Me?!" I look over at him confused and he slaps a hand over his mouth dramatically. I shook my head and stood up popping my bones in the process.

"Saoirpse? No, that's not a ship name," I spin around in my chair to see corpse on the beanbag thinking "Corse is quite good" (pronounced corsh) i lean my head on my palm and continue editing my "Among us 2735IQ Highlights reel" "Big brain, Look the Cor from my name and the se from your," I shook my head laughing at the childish man behind me. "You worry me Corpse," I say before hearing a dramatic gasp "Offended" I pop my tongue and lean back in my chair. "Shinigami told me kill em i said let me grab my death note" i tap the side of my chair murmuring the rest of the words to myself.

"Hello all of my lovely friends," i say as i turn on my stream. I had convinced corpse to let me stream because i was feeling better after my painkillers and multiple heat packs. "How are you? I'm okay, a little sore from cramps but i've had some meds, rest and i've got my head pad on just now." I reply to a few more questions rolling through the chat before clapping my hands together "right! We are playing the sims 4 because it's a chill game and i can do what i want to. i'm an adult" i open up the game but notice i have a discord message.

Reborn as a Fantasy World Dungeon
The title is a working title only, at some point, hopefully soon, I will decide on a more fitting one. Currently still reviewing the title poll results and the suggestions. My current release schedule here on royalroad, is every other Sunday at 1PM MST Chapter 28 is delayed, I am working on it still. What with the heavy snow coming to my area, so long as I don't lose power, I intend to be writing. I apologize to those following this story for the delay. Chapters 1-3 1st pass edit 2020-07-23 8PM MST.(The First Paragraph, (edited 2020-07-23)): My name is James Erikson. I am a 22 year old, Physics, Electrical Engineering double major at Stanford in my senior year. It had been a long day prepping for semester finals, I needed a good hot shower. I was on the way back to my dorm from the Green Library having returned some books on Quantum Mechanics, the Interaction of the Strong and Weak Nuclear forces under the influence of Strong Gravitational fields, and a book on the history of modern electronics. It was about 8:45 PM on Monday, November 15th, 2021, and I was getting ready to cross Campus Drive near the Student Services center, when unexpectedly, Lisa, my younger brothers girlfriend called out to me. I turned towards her, twisting my ankle in the process, and started to fall. I am looking at her face, I can see her eyes widening in shock in the street-lamps glow. I can see her start to scream the word “NO” when I am suddenly plunged into utmost blackness.
8 111NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
