《The Words Unsaid- (Vkook)》Chapter 22- Narrator's Perspective
Advertisement
Jungkook woke up to a sharp poke to the ribs. He bolted up right. It was Namjoon.
"Jungkook, your eyes are swollen. Were you...crying?" He asked.
"W-what? No of course not!" Jungkook replied, embarrassed.
"Well come on then, you have to practice the dance for Not Today. We will be performing once Taehyung is better." Namjoon told him.
"Oh. Yeah, right," Jungkook said.
AT THE DANCE PRACTICE...
The music started. Jungkook played back the moves in his head. Then they started.
All the underdogs of the world...
They started out smoothly until Jungkook tripped. They played it off. Then he was in the wrong spot. Jin stopped the music.
"What's up with our maknae today?" he asked Jungkook.
"Uh, I guess I'm just tired."
Jin rested a hand on Jungkook's shoulder. "We're all upset about Taehyung, you know. But he's in good hands. He'll be ok,"
"I know," Jungkook said.
"Well come on, we need to keep on practicing," Jin told Jungkook.
"Ok."
When Jungkook got home, he flopped down on his bed. It was lonely without Taehyung.
Too quiet.
Too boring.
Too dark.
Jungkook wish it had been him who fell off the stage. Taehyung didn't deserve to get hurt.

Golden Age
In the latter half of the 21st century fully immersive virtual reality has finally become mainstream; a brand new game company called Aurum Productions promises to bring about the most realistic fantasy MMORPG ever created with their flagship title, Golden Age. A new player who goes by the name, D0n, loads into the world of virtual reality for the first time in his life thanks to these promises. But what catches his attention isn’t the wild monsters, the in-depth quest lines, or the ability to perform superhuman feats — what draws D0n at first is a bit more… mundane. Sure he’ll put in the time to level up his character… just as soon as he can finish applying the last layer of paint on his new coffee table… and after he lands that triple backflip he’s been trying to do all day… not to mention the lady next door was talking about a new horned rabbit stew recipe she was working on… Sure a world of swords and magic in virtual reality means a whole slew of fantastical experiences you can’t get anywhere else, but it’s not like those are going anywhere. And virtual or not, D0n is determined to live out his reality with a pace and vision that suits him best. It’s just a shame that his habit of a personalized play style has some far reaching consequences even Golden Age’s dev team could have never predicted. New Chapters uploaded every Wednesday.

8 302Fort Administrator
Dear Sir, You are invited to be considered for the position of civil administrator at the distant frontier outpost of Fort Amalveor. You may have heard rumours about this region. While it is indeed beyond the borders of the Polity, I can reassure you that it is a very calm and ordered land, sparsely inhabited, and largely untroubled. Should you decide to pursue this opportunity, please write back with the utmost urgency! The position has already been vacant for some time, and a talented administrator is needed with haste. Yours faithfully, Jessaire Sev-ConteneSenior ClerkNorth Hill Waypost Sebastian Lewis has been offered an administrative position at a minor outpost in a relatively obscure frontier territory. It isn't a position he's particularly well qualified for, but it's also not something he can bring himself to pass up. Packing his spare clothes, his outdoor boots, and of course his stationery set, he begins his journey into the unknown. This is a fantasy story with mysery and horror elements, following a protagonist with no special powers.
8 135Naruto Retsuden: Toru
[SI/OC Third Shinobi War]Well fought and well done. All of us fight as one. It took me three years to be able to properly read the faded out kanji of the flimsy poster that I keep in my back pocket. The illustration is colourful, bright reds and yellows. Colours that would definitely catch the attention of a child. The poster was carefully placed along the walls and fences of my village, level with the height of a four year old. I thought enlisting to become a Shinobi was a heroic deed, something I needed to do to save my family from poverty and to serve my country at the cusp of war. Then I graduated early to be deployed to the front lines.I am sadly and sorely mistaken. Warnings:Slow-burnNO OP-NESSRomance? What romance? It'll take at least 40 chapters or more before anything romantic happens.Realistic depictions of War from a child's perspectiveBlood and goreChild SoldiersPTSDRealistic character developmentTragedy. A lot of tragedy. Critiques much appreciated!
