Don't Get Too Excited
I said he was tolerable, I never said that I was catching feelings for him. Do not twist my words or intentions.
I didn't hang up the call with Charlize, she was starting to think that I had gone soft for Mason and began to grow feelings for him just because I didn't want someone else to make his life miserable, literally what's the fun in that? Taking away my candy from my baby, like you look dumb enough trying to act just like me anyways.
Nobody can be me, I'm the original Y/n L/n, which is foreign language for, nobody can ever live the life that I have.
Although I wanted to hang up on my friend for repeatedly telling me that I was growing feelings for the boy that I truly despises was something that was getting under my skin, I did not grow feelings for him and I don't think I ever will.
She wants to believe what she wants to believe though and trying to convince her that her little ship is sinking faster than the titanic is going to be more difficult than what I had thought it was going to be.
Why can't friends just make it easy for you and take the hint that you do not have any feelings for anybody that you either barely know or hate with all your heart, like it doesn't matter if it's a joke or not, I'm feelings irritated or even not heard when I tell you how I'm feeling.
Not saying that Charlize or any of my friends don't value my feelings, I'm just saying that they need to take into consideration that being shipped with someone you despise is weird and distasteful at times, especially if the person had ever disrespected you.

"He's tolerable at times, I mean he isn't half as bad when we're around people, if you understand what I'm saying."
I walked to my fridge and opened it, pulling out a couple of grapes and walking back to the couch before popping one in my mouth, Charlize's hand smacked straight up to her mouth and she looked at me with a big grin.
"Oh my God, you're so catching feelings for the boy!"
Charlize beamed as she got up from her bed, I looked at her and shook my head as my eyes began to feel like they were bulging out of my sockets, just because I'm starting to tolerate the person that I hate doesn't mean that I have any kind of feelings for him whatsoever.
I said he was tolerable, I never said that I was catching feelings for him. Do no twist my words or intentions.
I explained quickly, Charlize still didn't believe me but I didn't care, as long as I know the truth then what everyone else thinks isn't my problem at all, of course everyone has their own opinions so no matter how much convincing I do, she's not going to believe me.
When I was younger, I used to get so stressed out when people didn't believe me on what I said and always made me question myself on whether or not I was being truthful even though deep down, I knew that I was.
So as I grew up, I learned that no matter how much good you can do and how much convincing you can do, there will always be people who wouldn't believe you, even if they know you were telling the truth.
But this isn't the case, Charlize was just doing it to do it, she just wanted to see if I would realize that I had a big crush on him although I don't, yes I thought he was attractive but that's all.

There wasn't a single time I had ever thought about getting with him, there wasn't a single time where I believed that he would want to be with me and we would date for many years and counting, I never once ever thought that the person I hated would take a chance with me.
But then the night comes and I believe that he and I would be together once we get over this hating thing, even when I knew that the words he would tell me could be true.
I just wanted to have a little bit of faith that would stop being enemies and maybe just be lovers, but really what the hell is love when there's no hell to raise before dating? With all the tension you have, you realize your feelings for the person in front of you.
But I'm not getting too excited, I don't wanna let my guard down and he decides to knock me out of the clouds.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.

Ode to Freud
For those who do not understand the reference, "wish fulfillment" is before anything a term created by Sigmund Freud in the 1900's. In psychology it is a state of satisfying unconscious needs and desires by the use of fantasy and delusion. In literature it is the very base of fictional work, but also the name of a style of writing where the author sacrifices the key elements of good storytelling in order to fulfill his own psychopathic, neurotic or perverse needs and desires, usually through the use of the characters in weird and forced situations. What I meant by the title of this story is that it is a trashy, badly written, shitty story about me getting some wish fulfillment by the use of some characters and a fictional world of my creation. Not the good kind of fulfillment, since my wishes are of the bad kind and I intend to fulfill those, not yours. Also, being a total amateur and not writing a proper plot before starting are two big indicators that this story is going to go bad. I guess Royal Road call this kind of stories the "Mary Sue" kind. So, unless you are a very ugly piece of trash (at least as much as I am) don’t bother reading it. Now, if you ARE messed up on the level of a clinically depressive, lightly suicidal, lolicon/shotacon aligned morbidly obese hikikomori vermin who sold his virginity to a prostitute and is currently living at the costs of his widowed mother after expending all the money he got from his father’s inheritance, all the while masturbating furiously to beast/furry dickgirl hentai, then be welcomed. Please feel free to get a serving at my antidepressants and also at the canned tuna I have stored in the fridge. There may be some cheese somewhere, and I am pretty sure I bought some juice the other day, but I have no idea where it is. Anyway. You may dislike what I write because of all the amauteur(ish) writing, or you may not. Who knows. Give it a try and write a comment. It gets lonely writing to no one. Also, feel free to grant me inspiration not only by making comments about the world and/or characters, but specially by suggesting a music for me to listen while I write the next chapter. Be warned : I do get influenced easily by the background music I listen while writing. If you exist, of course. I'm seriously doubting anyone has read anything after the "lolicon hikikomori" thing. Also, I have a tiny dick.Just so you can feel better about yourself a little more. Or maybe I have just degraded psychologically a little more and now I am into shame-play. I wonder if the psychiatrist would increase my meds a bit if I told her about it.Hope I never get to penispanick, though! Self-mutilation, especially of the castration type, would be baaaad. After all, I do like my prostitutes. And having sex with them when I can afford it. Oh, yeah, the story. I will just write the first chapter in a few moments.Until later, b(i)each.
