Bella's POV
Drew teaches me how to weave and then he went back to making the floor boards.
As I work on the rug, I think about how drew acted when I mentioned gay marriage. First, he almost said that the Kitchen Boy was hot and now this. Is he gay? Or maybe bi? I would be completely fine with it if he was.
As I am in deep though, drew walks towards me. I finished the rug and got up to meet him.
"Ready for dinner?" He asks
"Yeah." I say, while walking towards the food slot. He follows closely behind me and we get our food. We went to our spot, the lone tree, and ate quietly. I had no clue what to talk about and I bet he felt the same.
"You know what I liked to do when I was back on Earth?" I say, he just stares at me so I continue.
"I liked to read books and watch musicals. I know that makes me a nerd but it's what I like to do. There was this YouTube channel that would record musicals and you could watch it for free."
"YouTube?" He asks, scrunching his eyebrows together.
"Oh yeah! I forgot! YouTube is a website, or place, on a computer where you can watch or make videos."
"Oh ok. I never had time for musicals. You know, with the war and everything. But Jerome loved...."
"Jerome?" I interrupt.

Drew's POV
Shit. Shit shit shit!! What do I do? What do I say?
"Jerome?" She asks again. I could tell her the truth. But what if she is just like my mom? Taking a deep breath, I answer.
"Jerome was my boyfriend." I say, waiting for her to freak out.

"Oh. What was he like?" She asks, not in the slightest bit shocked. Shouldn't she be?
"Uh... he was like a fresh of breath air. He loved to read and watch musicals. He fought with me in the war before... before he died."
"I'm sorry for your loss. It must have been hard on you." She said
"Yeah, it was. I loved him. If marriage was legal for us back then, we like have been married. I'm sorry for not telling you before. It's just when I told me mom that I was bi, she kicked me out."
"She what? How could she do this?" Bella says, seemingly surprised at the cruelty of people who are afraid of what they don't understand.
"It was a different time,Bella. People weren't as accepting." I say.
"But she still shouldn't have done that. I'm so sorry, Drew." She says, right before doing the unexpected.
She hugged me. I hugged her back. This was the first time in what felt like a millennium, that I had a hug. It probably had been a millennium. It felt nice but all good things must come to an end. She pulls away and looks up at me.
"We should probably head back." She says.
We go our separate ways. Her to the rug and I to the shack.
As I walk away, I hear a blood curdling scream.
"DREW!!" Then silence. I run to where I heard the voice but nothing. I look frantically, running to each corner of the habitat. Nothing. She's gone. She disappeared. But that's impossible.
Then I see a hooded figure on top of the hill where Bella and I were 5 minutes ago. I feel a prick on the back of my neck and everything goes black.

The New World
An AI calling itself Schema has assimilated earth into its system. As a consequence, everyone gained access to status screens, power-ups, and skills. This AI turned these concepts from fiction to fact. It's easy to become intoxicated with leveling up and becoming stronger. To some, it's too good to be true like living out a dream. For Daniel, however, it's closer to a nightmare. He's in a bit of a predicament. Cracks in our dimensional fabric have unleashed terrifying beasts from dark, abyssal places. Schema organizes these cracks into dungeons, giving the native species of the planet a chance to fight back. Daniel finds himself trapped in one of these dungeons. Not long after, he discovers there's only one way out. Kill or be killed. (Note: I am currently editing the story and I'm uploading those edits. It will take time to do this, so if you find a huge shift in the story's formatting, that's why. I'm steadily hammering away at it, but it's going to take time. Thanks for your understanding, if you're offering it.) This is a lit-RPG inspired by the Fallout series of games and the Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. Schedule: 2-3 releases a week of around 3,000 words. I have other fictions! *They're of questionable quality* Here's Monsters Dwell in Men If you want to support me and maybe see other content, check out my patreon: Patreon Here's my Youtube Channel as well, Monsoon117

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.
