I work at an office along with a lot of other people in their late twenties and early thirties. Most of them are in relationships. I'm not friends with any of them (I find them all disgusting, actually), but I'm good at pretending to be friendly and cordial, so some of them consider me "work mates". I hate talking with them, but my job pays well, and I know that ass kissing and playing nice gets you promoted, so I listen to them talk.
They like to gossip to me about their relationships. I get so fucking tired of hearing them gush about how great they're partner is. I feel like just screaming at them how fucking stupid they are for thinking this will last. Spoiler alert, bitch: you aren't in love, you're horny and he's giving you the attention your parents never did. Within a few years, you'll want each other dead.
But the ones that talk about their relationships on the rocks make me very happy. It's like they almost realize that romance was made up by marketers and Hollywood writers, and not something real people can actually do. You don't love him or her. You love the gifts, validation, and dick they give you.
I almost messed up yesterday by nearly laughing when my coworker said he found out his girlfriend was cheating on him. Welcome to reality, jackass. People suck. I managed to hold it in, but the sad little puppy dog look on his face when he realized that life isn't all peaches and cream was fucking hilarious.
I watched this video recently, and it summed up my feelings perfectly. https://youtu.be/lJTfNIPGhlQ
The comments made me happy seeing that other people realize just how much of a scam relationships are.
How do you guys deal with these idiots who think they're in love?

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO SAY HERE! NYEH HEH HEH!
I HAVE OPENED THE GAME, SKIPPED THE STORY, AND PRESSED CONTINUE! AND I AM IN THE CHECKPOINT ROOM! AND MY FIRST INSTINCT, IS TO GO BACK TO SNOWDIN TOWN AND GET THE RIBBON OUT OF THE BOX! I MUST LOOK THE BEST FOR MY DATE WITH GAME ME! I PUT THE RIBBON ON AND COME BACK TO GAME ME! THE GAME IS VERY ACCURATE, AND DOES THE SAME JOKE THAT I DID WHEN I DATED FRISK! AND THEN I ENTER MY HOUSE!
I INSPECT SANS' PET ROCK, UNFORTUNATELY I CANNOT FEED IT! BUT IT'S FINE, IT HAS FOOD ALREADY! I GO UPSTAIRS AND INSPECT THE VERY MEANINGFUL PAINTING! BUT I ALREADY KNOW ABOUT EVERYTHING IN MY HOUSE, AS IT'S MY HOUSE, AND I ENTER MY ROOM! AND IT'S LIKE LOOKING AT REAL LIFE! JUST WITH NO FLOWERY, LESS ACTION FIGURES, AND MY BED ISN'T A REAL CAR! JUST HOW I REMEMBER IT USED TO LOOK! BUT ENOUGH TOMFOOLERY, IT'S TIME TO START THE DATE FOR REAL!
I ENTER THE DATE, AND ACCIDENTALLY PRESS C, WHICH BRINGS THE DATING HUD OUT EARLY! WHICH IS PROBABLY A GOOD THING! BUT NOW IT'S TIME FOR STEP TWO! GAME ME ASKS ME OUT ON A DATE, AND I SAY YES! TIME FOR PART THREE!! GAME ME HAS NOTICED MY RIBBON, AND ACCUSES ME OF ALWAYS WANTING TO DATE HIM!! WHICH IS ONLY PARTIALLY TRUE! SO I SAY NO! AND LIKE THE COOL DUDE GAME ME IS, HE FINDS A WAY TO MAKE IT SUPER ROMANTIC AND COOL!! AND MY DATING POWER RISES!
GAME ME PUTS ON HIS COOL DUDE OUTFIT, WHICH IS VERY HANDSOME! I GIVE MYSELF A GENUINE COMPLIMENT, AND MY DATING POWER RISES ONCE MORE! HOWEVER, I HAVE FORGOTTEN ONE SMALL THING! I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE HIDDEN POWER BEHIND THE OUTFIT (EXCEPT I ACTUALLY DO) AND THUS, MY COMPLIMENT IS INVALID! OH NO!! HOWEVER WILL I GET OUT OF THIS ONE, I PONDER! BUT BY SEER LUCK, I ACCIDENTALLY MOVE DIRECTLY UP TO THE HAT AND COMPLETELY UNINTENTIONALLY PRESS Z! AND WOWIE, I'VE FOUND THE SECRET PRESENT!
I OPEN THE PRESENT, AND GAME ME ASKS IF I KNOW WHAT IT IS! AND OF COURSE I DO! INSIDE THAT PRESENT IS THE FINEST SPAGHETTI MEAL THE UNDERGROUND HAS EVER SEEN! HAND-CRAFTED IN THE LAND OF MY KITCHEN, A DANGEROUS AND SPECTACULAR PLACE WHERE ONLY THE BRAVEST CHEF WARRIORS DARE ENTER! AND I WOULD EAT IT! HOWEVER, FLOWERY SAYS I SHOULD LET GAME ME HAVE IT INSTEAD, AND SO I DO! AND I DEFEAT GAME ME IN DATING!
WOWIE! I HAVE FORGETTEN HOW AWKWARD THIS ACTUALLY WAS! I DIDN'T NEED THE REMINDER, BUT I'M THANKFUL FOR IT ANYWAY! I HAVE OBTAINED MY PHONE NUMBER, AND NOW I CAN CALL GAME ME WHENEVER I WISH! NYEH HEH HEH! WHAT A NOT THAT GREAT TIME!
I RE-ENTER THE CHECKPOINT ROOM, AND GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE SOUND OF RUSHING WATER, AND SAVE THE GAME! THEN, I TALK TO MONSTER KID! WHO HAS SNUCK AWAY FROM SNOWDIN TO COME VISIT "HER", WHOM I AM ASSUMING TO BE UNDYNE! AND I THEN TALK TO THE ECHO FLOWER EXPLAINER PERSON, AND THE ECHO FLOWER! AND LASTLY, I TALK WITH SANS, WHO INVITES ME TO GRILLBY'S TO TAKE A BREAK FROM JUST STANDING AT HIS STATION DOING NOTHING! UNFORTUNATELY SANS, I HAVE STANDARDS, AND GRILLBY'S DOESN'T MEET THOSE STANDARDS (SORRY GRILLBY), SO I SHALL DECLINE THAT OFFER! AND THEN, I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
I FIND THE BOX, AND GRAB MY MANDANNA OUT OF THERE! AND I WALK ACROSS UNDYNE'S "PUZZLE", BUT FLOWERY TELLS ME TO GO BACK AND GO INSIDE THE WATERFALL! AND SO I DO, AND THERE IT IS! THE OLD TUTU! BACK TO THE BOX WITH YOU, MANLY BANDANNA! AND THEN, I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
OH WOW! WHAT A VERY ACCURATE MEETING BETWEEN UNDYNE AND GAME ME, THAT I HAVE LIVED THROUGH! THIS GAME HAS GOTTEN FRIGHTENINGLY GOOD AT BEING ACCURATE! GAME ME TRIES TO CONVINCE UNDYNE NOT TO KILL ME! BUT ALAS, UNDYNE DOESN'T LISTEN TO GAME ME'S PERFECT REASONING! I TRY TO ESCAPE, BUT UNDYNE NOTICES ME, AND PREPARES TO THROW A SPEAR!! THANKFULLY, THE GRASS HAS SAVED ME! SO I ESCAPE THE GRASS, AND SO DOES MONSTER KID, WHO HAS BEEN FOLLOWING ME I GUESS! AND THEY FALL OVER! WHICH SUCKS TO SEE! I STAY DETERMINED DESPITE THE FEELINGS OF DREAD, AND SAVE THE GAME! AND THEN I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
AH, A PUZZLE! THIS SHALL BE EASY! ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I'VE DONE THIS PUZZLE TO GET TO UNDYNE'S HOUSE BEFORE! BUT I SOLVE THE PUZZLE WITH EASE, AND ENTER THE NEXT ROOM! BUT BEFORE I CAN GET TOO FAR, AN AARON ATTACKS! I DECIDE TO FLEX ON IT, FOR I AM VERY GREAT! AND HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO SO! BUT AARON FLEXES BACK, AND BOTH OUR ATTACK INCREASES!! AND I GET HIT! I FLEX ONCE MORE, AND ONCE MORE, AND THEN AARON FLIES OUT OF THE ROOM? BUT ANYWAY, I HAVE SOLVED THE OTHER PUZZLE, AND GET A CALL FROM GAME ME. WHO IS ASKING WHAT I AM WEARING! I TELL GAME ME I AM IN FACT WEARING A DUSTY TUTU, BUT INCASE THE GAME IS GOING TO GO HOW I THINK IT'S GOING TO GO, I SHALL SWITCH BACK TO THE MANLY BANDANNA, AND I ESCAPE TO THE NEXT ROOM!
IT'S THE WISHING ROOM! I WISH THAT I WAS TALKING TO GAME ME! AND WOWIE, IT'S COMING TRUE!! AND NOW, I AM TALKING TO ALL THE ECHO FLOWERS IN THE ROOM! I TRY TO TALK TO THE SECOND ONE, BUT WOSHUA APPEARS! I ASK IT TO CLEAN ME, THEN GET HIT 4 TIMES! BUT DON'T WORRY, BECAUSE I TOUCHED THE GREEN PROJECTILES! AND I HAVE HEALED IN THE OVERWORLD, SO IT IS FINE! I TALK TO ALL THE ECHO FLOWERS, LISTENING TO ALL THEIR STORIES TO TELL! SOME WISHING TO SEE REAL STARS, SOME TALKING ABOUT REAL STARS, ONE TALKING ABOUT THE HOROSCOPE! BUT AFTER TALKING TO ALL THE ECHO FLOWERS, I ENTER TO NEXT ROOM!
IN THIS ROOM, THERE ARE SIGNS ABOUT THE WAR! I WONDER WHY THE HUMANS ATTACKED US? I'M SURE THEY HAD A VERY REASONABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE EXPLAINATION! BUT THAT QUESTION IS ANSWERED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY! THEY WERE SCARED THE MONSTERS WOULD TRY TO TAKE THEIR SOUL! THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN! MONSTERS ARE KIND AND GOOD! AND NOT MURDEROUS AND SCARY! BUT I FINISH READING, AND GO ONTO THE NEXT AREA!
AND UNDYNE THROWS A SPEAR AT ME!! I MUST HELP FRISK TO ESCAPE UNDYNE'S WRATH! I RUN AS FAST AS THE GAME ALLOWS ME TO, AND GET HIT ONCE! BUT I ESCAPE TO SOME GRASS! AND MONSTER KID HAS SAVED ME BY SOMEHOW GETTING IN FRONT OF ME, AND UNDYNE RETREATS BACK TO WHEREVER SHE WENT! MONSTER KID IS SUPER EXCITED ABOUT UNDYNE TOUCHING THEM, WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNDERSTANDABLE! BUT YOU SHOULD PROBABLY WASH YOUR FACE. AND ALSO PLEASE STOP FALLING ON IT!! BUT, THE CHASE IS OVER, AND I CAN RESUME MY ADVENTURE!
I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM, AND IT'S THE MOUSE AGAIN! AND SOME CRYSTALIZED CHEESE! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE MOUSE MAY ONE DAY EXTRACT THE CHEESE FROM THE CRYSTAL, AND SAVE THE GAME! THEN I INTERACT WITH THE MOUSE, AND MOVE ON!
OH LOOK, IT'S SANS! WITH HIS TELESCOPE! I'VE BEEN DENYING MY BROTHER A LITTLE TOO MUCH I FEEL, SO I'LL DO THIS ONE THING! OH BUT OF COURSE IT'S A PRANK! AND NOW FRISK HAS PINK EYE! I GO UP, AND FIND THE NICE CREAM MAN!! AND I BUY ANOTHER TWO NICE CREAMS, SINCE I USED ONE TO HEAL EARLIER! I ALSO READ THE SIGN, AND PONDER WHAT IT COULD POSSIBLY MEAN! BUT FLOWERY GETS BORED AND TELLS ME TO MOVE ALONG! I GO BACK DOWN, AND TALK TO THE STAR MAN! AND I GO RIGHT, AND I SEE THE BIRD THAT CARRIES PEOPLE OVER THE DISPROPORTIONATELY SMALL GAP! I WAVE IT HELLO AND GOODBYE, AND CONTINUE MOVING ON!
WOWIE, SO MANY ECHO FLOWERS! I'M SURE THE WISH ISN'T STUPID, STRANGER! AS I AM WALKING LEFT, I GET ATTACKED BY TWO MOLDSMALS! SO I FLIRT WITH ONE, IMITATE THE OTHER, AND SPARE THEM BOTH! I CONTINUE MOVING LEFT, BUT THERE'S NOTHING BUT A BUSH IN HERE! SO I GRAB THE BALLET SHOES THAT WERE IN THE BUSH THAT FLOWERY TOLD ME ABOUT, AND THEN I INSPECT THEM! 7 WPN AT?! HOW DEADLY! I DON'T NEED THIS, BUT LITTERING IS BAD AS I HAVE LEARNED FROM THE TOY KNIFE, SO I SHALL GO PUT THIS IN MY BOX! I GO DOWN, AND GET A CALL FROM GAME ME!! BUT OH NO! THE GAME HAS OUTSMARTED ME!!! GAME ME HAS TOLD UNDYNE WHAT I AM WEARING, AND SHE HAS ALREADY SEEN ME WEARING IT! CURSES!! I WILL JUST HAVE TO THINK AHEAD! I WILL GO PUT THE TUTU BACK ON! BUT ON MY WAY TO THE BOX, I GET ATTACKED BY ANOTHER WOSHUA! I GET CLEANED, SPARE THEM, PUT ON THE TUTU, PUT THE MANDANNA BACK IN THE BOX, AND GO BACK DOWN! BUT I GET ATTACKED BY WOSHUA AND AARON! I ASK TO BE CLEANED BY WOSHUA, AND THE WATER IS BLUE THIS TIME, HOW EASY FOR ME! I SPARE WOSHUA, FLEX WITH AARON, AND MOVE ON!
I FINALLY ENTER THE NEXT ROOM, AND IT'S ONIONSAN! WE HAVE A NICE CONVERSATION AS I WALK INTO THE NEXT ROOM, AND I BUMP INTO SHYREN! I SHALL HUM WITH SHYREN! AND I CONTINUE TO HUM, AND SANS IS SELLING TICKETS MADE OF TOILET PAPER, BECAUSE OF COURSE HE IS! I CONTINUE HUMMING! AND THIS IS THE FINAL HUM! THIS HAS BEEN A VERY FUN BATTLE! BUT I MUST EMBARK ON MY JOURNEY! SO I GO RIGHT, AND SEE THE STATUE BEING RAINED ON! SO OF COURSE, I GET AN UMBRELLA AND GIVE IT TO THE STATUE, AND A MUSIC BOX STARTS PLAYING! WHAT A COOL SONG THAT FLOWERY DOESN'T WANT TO STOP LISTENING TO! BUT HE HAS AN UPGRADED VERSION IN HIS MIXTAPE, SO I DON'T GET WHY HE- OH WAIT NO NEVERMIND THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE SKY! OKAY NOW HE'S TELLING ME TO GO BACK AND GO UP, AND THERE'S A PIANO HERE! I THINK I UNDERSTAND THE PUZZLE! AFTER A COUPLE ATTEMPTS, I FINALLY COMPLETE THE PUZZLE! IT'S TIME TO CLAIM MY REWARD! BUT I'M CARRYING TOO MANY DOGS. SO I- WAIT WHAT?!
GAH!! CURSE THAT MEDDLING CANINE!!! IT STOLE MY LEGENDARY ARTIFACT! OH WELL, IT'S FINE! I GUESS I DON'T NEED IT! I SHALL CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD! AND I HAVE MET UP WITH MONSTER KID, WHO IS FOLLOWING ME, SINCE THEY DON'T HAVE AN UMBRELLA! AND THEY TELL ME A COOL STORY ABOUT HOW ASGORE WENT TO SCHOOL AND TAUGHT THEM ABOUT RESPONSIBILITY AND SUCH! AND THEN WE VIEW THE CASTLE TOGETHER! AND THEN THERE'S A LEDGE THAT BLOCKS OUR PATH! CURSES! BUT THANKFULLY, MK HAS DECIDED TO SACRIFICE THEIR ADVENTURE FOR MY ADVENTURE'S SAKE! WHAT A HERO! I'M SURE THIS WON'T BE THE LAST I SEE OF THEM!
I CONTINUE READING ABOUT THE WAR, AND OUR TRAGIC TALE, AND THEN I CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD! BUT UNDYNE WANTS TO ATTACK ME ONCE AGAIN!!! I RUN AWAY, AND GET STUCK AT DEAD ENDS SEVERAL TIMES! BUT THANKFULLY, I HAVE ESCAPED WITH MY LIFE, AND WITHOUT GETTING HIT! BECAUSE I AM JUST GREAT THAT WAY! I TRY WALKING BACK TO FIND A WAY OUT, BUT UNDYNE SHOWS UP!! AND I AM CORNERED! OH NO!! BUT, SHE JUST... DESTROYS THE BRIDGE? THAT SEEMS A BIT COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE. GOOD FOR ME HOWEVER! AND NOW, I'M BEING SAVED BY SOMEONE??
FLOWERY TOLD ME HE HAS TO DO SOMETHING, AND I CAN JUST KEEP PLAYING WITHOUT HIM! STRANGE, BUT OKAY! WHEN MY VISION HAS RETURNED, THERE WAS NO ONE THERE. STRANGE, I GUESS IT WAS A DREAM! BUT NOW I AM IN THE DUMP! THAT MEANS I'M CLOSE TO UNDYNE'S HOUSE! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE ENDLESS CYCLE OF VERY WORTHY NOT WORTHLESS AT ALL GARBAGE, AND SAVE THE GAME! I FIND SOME ASTRONAUT FOOD, AND DECIDE TO TAKE IT! I INSPECT IT, AND LEARN IT HEALS 21HP! THERE'S ANOTHER ONE, BUT I SHALL LEAVE IT FOR SOMEONE ELSE! AND I FIND A TRAINING DUMMY, AND I DECIDE TO TRAIN WITH IT! BUT FRISK FEELS BAD. I SHALL LEAVE IT ALONE THEN! BUT THEN, IT GETS ANGRY AT ME!! I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS ALIVE! WELL, NOT REALLY ALIVE, BECAUSE IT'S A GHOST, BUT I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS A NORMAL TRAINING DUMMY!!! AND THEY'RE MAD AT ME FOR SAYING SOMETHING TO THE DUMMY IN THE RUINS!? WHAT DID FRISK SAY, THE NARRATOR DIDN'T DESCRIBE ANYTHING!!!
BUT NOW I AM IN BATTLE! I TRY TO TALK THEM OUT OF THIS, BUT THEY DON'T SEEM MUCH FOR CONVERSATION, OH NO!! BUT MY ACCIDENT, I HIT MAD DUMMY WITH THEIR MAGIC BULLETS, AND THEY REACT IN PAIN! THEY THREATEN TO TAKE FRISK'S SOUL, WHICH WILL NOT BE HAPPENING! NOT ON MY WATCH! AND I ACCIDENTALLY ATTACK THEM AGAIN!! OH NO! I KEEP TRYING TO TALK, BUT IT'S NOT WORKING! MAYBE IT'S LIKE TORIEL WHERE I HAVE TO SPARE OVER AND OVER?? THEY KEEP FLYING INTO THEIR OWN BULLETS! I'M TRYING NOT TO HIT THEM!!! OKAY, SPARING THEM'S NOT WORKING. MAYBE I SHOULD KEEP TRYING TO SPARE THEM! I KEEP SPARING AND TALKING, AND ACCIDENTALLY HITTING MAD DUMMY! BUT IT'S NOT WORKING!!! I REFUSE TO FIGHT, THERE'S A WAY TO SPARE THEM, I JUST KNOW IT! IF ONLY FLOWERY WERE HERE, HE'D KNOW WHAT TO DO!
EVENTUALLY, MAD DUMMY GETS TIRED OF GETTING HIT OVER AND OVER, WHICH I APOLOGIZE FOR! OR I WOULD, IF I COULD. BUT NOW ALL THE MAGIC DUMMY BULLET THROWERS ARE FIRED!! THIS IS ALL JUST INCONVENIENT FOR EVERYONE, SO I THINK WE SHOULD STOP! BUT MAD DUMMY DISAGREES! NOW I HAVE TO DODGE THE HOMING MISSILES! I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW TO SPARE THEM. MAYBE I SHOULD TRY FIGHTING, BUT THEN INTENTIONALLY MISSING? GAH! IT'S NOT WORKING!! MAYBE IT'S LIKE MY FIGHT WHERE THEY'LL SHOW MERCY ON THEIR OWN! I'LL TRY WAITING IT OUT THEN!
AND I WAS RIGHT! I'VE BEATEN THE FINAL ATTACK! NYEH HEH HEH! BUT THE MUSIC HASN'T STOPPED. AH! A KNIFE!! IT WAS JUST ONE THOUGH. I THINK I'VE WON! WAIT, NO! NOW I'M STUCK HERE! CURSE YOU, TURN BASED COMBAT SYSTEM!! OR NOT. WOWIE! NAPSTABLOOK SAVED THE DAY, ALBEIT ACCIDENTALLY, THEY STIL SAVED THE DAY! AND NOW I AM GOING TO VISIT THEIR HOUSE! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION AND TRANQUILITY, AND SAVE THE GAME! AND BEFORE I VISIT NAPSTABLOOK, I SHALL VISIT THE BIRD THAT CARRIES PEOPLE OVER THE DISPROPORTIONATELY SMALL GAP! AFTER DANCING WITH THE BIRD, I VISIT NAPSTABLOOK, AND LISTEN TO THEIR INCREDIBLE MUSIC, AND THEN I LEAVE! AND FLOWERY HAS RETURNED! HOORAY! AND I SHALL PLAY THUNDERSNAIL TO CELEBRATE! AND I GOT SECOND PLACE!! CONGRATULATIONS, YELLOW SNAIL! IT THINKS IT WON, SO ACT LIKE I WON FIRST TO MAKE IT HAPPY! HOORAY!! AND NOW, I MOVE ON!
AND I HAVE REACHED GERSON'S SHOP! I ONLY HAVE ROOM FOR ONE ITEM, SO I SHALL BUY A CRAB APPLE! AND I TALK TO GERSON FOR A BIT, AND THEN I LEAVE! AND I READ MORE ABOUT THE WAR! AND THEN I AM ON THE MUSHROOM BRIDGE PUZZLE, AND FLOWERY WANTS ME TO GO TO THE TEMMIE VILLAGE! AND SO I DO! WHAT A STRANGE PLACE! AND AFTER SOME HANGING OUT, AND SELLING ITEMS TO TEMMIE, I ENCOUNTER TWO MOLDSMALS! I FLIRT WITH ONE, IMITATE THE OTHER, BUT IT WAS MOLDBYGG IN DISGUISE!! I TRY HUGGING MOLDBYGG, BUT THAT JUST SLOWS ME DOWN! SO I UNHUG INSTEAD, AND I CAN SPARE THEM! I GET HIT, AND THEN I SPARE THEM! AND I AM NOW AT 4HP, SO I SHOULD DEFINITELY HEAL! ANOTHER NICE CREAM FOR ME! AND THEN I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
AND IT'S THE LANTERN MAZE! I NEVER REALLY LIKED THIS PLACE. THE CRYSTALS ARE PRETTY THOUGH! ON MY WAY TO THE NEXT ROOM, I GET ATTACKED MY WOSHUA AND AARON! FLEX WITH AARON UNTIL HE FLIES AWAY, GET CLEANED, AND WIN THE BATTLE! AND ON MY WAY I SHALL BE! AND I HAVE ARRIVED IN A DARK AREA! I FIND AN ECHO FLOWER, AND UNDYNE SHOWS UP OUT OF NOWHERE!! BUT THANKFULLY, BEFORE UNDYNE CAN STEAL FRISK'S SOUL, MK SHOWS UP AND SAVES ME ONCE AGAIN! UNDYNE DRAGS MK AWAY, AND I AM FREE TO ESCAPE ONCE MORE!
I AM NOW ON A BRIDGE, AND MK HAS ESCAPED UNDYNE! AND MK NOW KNOWS THAT FRISK IS HUMAN! BUT NOW WE'RE ENEMIES! OH NO! MK WANTS ME TO SAY SOMETHING MEAN SO THEY CAN HATE ME, BUT I REFUSE! MK IS GOING HOME, BUT THEN THEY TRIP AND FALL!!! AND UNDYNE SHOWS UP AT THE SAME TIME! AND I SHALL SAVE MONSTER KID FROM FALLING! MONSTER KID MAKES UNDYNE RETREAT, AND THEN THEY RUN BACK HOME! AND I SHALL CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD!!
AND THERE'S UNDYNE AGAIN! AND SHE'S NOT LETTING ME ESCAPE THIS TIME! SHE DOESN'T LIKE HOW I'M BEING KIND TO THE MONSTERS FOR SOME REASON? BUT SHE'S KIND TO THEM TOO! SO, I GUESS SHE JUST SAID THAT TO MAKE ME FEEL BAD ABOUT MYSELF?? WELL, IT DIDN'T WORK UNDYNE! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE HOWLING WIND, AND DECIDE I AM READY TO FACE UNDYNE!
I TRY TO PLEAD WITH UNDYNE, BUT NOTHING HAPPENS! AND I HAVE BLOCKED THE SPEARS! I TRY PLEADING ONCE MORE, AND NOTHING HAPPENS! AND I KEEP DOING THIS, UNTIL UNDYNE TURNS FRISK'S SOUL BACK TO NORMAL! AND IF THE GAME IS ACCURATE AGAIN, I SHOULD HAVE THE OPTION TO FLEE! WHICH I DO! ESCAPE! BUT UNDYNE CATCHES UP WITH HER INCREDIBLE SPEED, AND TURNS ME GREEN AGAIN!
I START SPARING HER INSTEAD, SINCE PLEADING WON'T WORK. UNDYNE ALMOST TRICKS ME, BUT I KEEP UP MY NO-HIT STREAK! I'M ALREADY USED TO BEING GREEN! NYEH HEH HEH! BUT TWO ATTACKS LATER, AND I GET HIT TWICE! BUT I AM NOW RED AGAIN, SO TO THE OVERWORLD WITH ME! SHE CATCHES ME AGAIN AND I AM GREEN ONCE MORE! AND THEN UNDYNE USES HER YELLOW SPEAR! OH NO!! THE YELLOW ONES ALWAYS CONFUSE ME. I SHOULD SURVIVE THOUGH! I AM THE GREAT PAPYRUS, AFTER ALL! EVEN IF I ONLY HAVE 14HP, THAT'S HIGH HP FOR FRISK'S STANDARDS! I GO BACK TO PLEADING, STILL NOTHING! BUT EVENTUALLY, SOMETHING HAPPENS! AND HER ATTACKS GET LESS EXTREME! NYEH HEH! I GET HIT AGAIN, BUT I'M STILL ALIVE! AND ANOTHER TWO ATTACKS LATER, AND I AM RED AGAIN! FREEDOM!! AND THEN GAME ME CALLS! OH WOW, WHAT A TIME TO ASK ABOUT BEING UNDYNE'S FRIEND! WELL, HOPEFULLY THAT WAS INACCURATE TIMING! BUT NO MATTER, I WILL VISIT UNDYNE NEXT TIME I PLAY! BUT FOR NOW, I SHALL CONTINUE RUNNING FOR FRISK'S LIFE! AND THEN I MAKE IT TO HOTLAND, WITH A SLEEPING SANS! BUT IT DISTRACTED UNDYNE FOR A MOMENT, SO I GUESS I'LL ALLOW IT!
OH NO! UNDYNE HAS COLLAPSED ON THE BRIDGE OVER LAVA! THANKFULLY, THERE'S A WATER COOLER RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, WHICH SHOULD BE FIRE, BUT I DON'T HAVE TIME TO THINK ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW! I SHALL GIVE UNDYNE THE WATER! AND SHE HAS WALKED AWAY. OH WELL! I'M SAFE! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE LABORATORY'S PLACEMENT, AND SAVE THE GAME! AND I SHALL CONTINUE PLAYING TOMORROW!! BECAUSE I NEED TO GET MY BONES TO STOP RATTLING! AND FLOWERY'S SHAKING, DESPITE HIM INSISTING THAT HE'S NOT! SO! WE SHALL SEE! NEXT TIME! WE SEE YOU! NEXT TIME ON I PLAYED UNDERTALE AND I AM REGURGITATING THE KNOWLEDGE BACK TO YOU!!
-NYEHFULLY YOURS, PAPYRUS AND FLOWERY

I decided to take a solo trip to Palm Springs this past weekend and I decided to use Mister B&B thinking it would be a good experience. Welp, it went horribly, but let me preface by saying that this was not Mister B&B's fault at all, it was all my hosts fault.
So Saturday morning rolls around and i wake up to a text from the host saying he removed the check-in time and I can come in anytime i wanted, I decided to get there by 12 just to be safe and I'm thankful that i did. Because when i got there at 12 I realized the place required codes to get inside and I was not provided with any codes whatsoever and no mention of it on the listing or any follow ups by the host, so I decided to call and text my host, no luck. Called him around 8 times leaving 5 minutes for him to call back. I tried to be as patient as possible in the 95 degree weather for nearly 45 minutes.
I decided to go get some food and hope he'd call me while i'm eating, nope no luck. I go back to the place at 2 and knock on the door and call/text him, no answer at all. I contact Mister B&B Support and they were no help because they couldn't get a hold of him either and they weren't provided with any info by the host for how the guest can access in case he wasn't able to answer. At this point i'm getting stressed and annoyed because I had a pool party that I paid for in advance ($70 btw, so i wasn't going to miss it) and it started at 12 and ends at 6. By this point it is 2:30, giving me little time to nap and shower before i go to the event. So i decide to resort to last option and rented a motel 6 and as soon as i stepped in the motel room I regretted the decision because it stank like cigarettes and excess amount of a spray to cover up the smell. Right after I get my motel 6 refunded, my host responds to my text at 3:30 saying "hey sorry your place was rented out, but i'm ready for you now. Your code is the last 4 digits of your phone number." I was so confused as to why he said the place was rented out because it wasn't. So i finally get to his place and he greets me at the door with his friend.
When i got into the place I was able to smell the alcohol from his breath and he started apologizing profusely saying how sorry he was about the whole mixup and that he would do anything to make up for it and then continued to say that if anything went wrong blame it on my friend. I'm just annoyed at this point and want this all to be behind me and say its okay. He then takes my hand and says i want to show you off to the rest of the guests in the place and takes me to the pool area where theres like 6 other people outside, 2-3 outside of the pool naked (it was clothing optional) and a few inside the pool. He then proceeds to tell everyone "Hey guys this is the handsome guest i was talking to you guys all about." I just said thank you and told him to show me my room. Once we get to my room he starts to apologize to me again and says "I'm so sorry, youre such a handsome beautiful man. Sorry if it was a bad start to your trip." His friend pulled him and said thats enough and apologized on his behalf. As his friend was pulling him out the room, he gai
I decide to take a look around the room and test out the bed and holly hell was that the most uncomfortable bed ever, if you can even call it that. Because this bed was a freaking couch turned into a bed with a piece of wood under one side to keep it standing up. I was only able to sleep on one side because the other side was being held by pieces of wood and solid as a rock, the floor would've been more comfortable to sleep on. Mind you I'm 6'6 so i need as much of the bed i can use and this was not cutting it for me. I showered and started getting ready for the pool party and noticed it is 4:30 already, but decided to go anyways. By the time i got there, the party was pretty much over with because everyone wanted to get energized for the night parties. I decided to go to the night party and luckily found a guy to take me back to his place and we hooked up and i asked him if i can sleep on his bed for a little because i was extremely tired. I got back to my place at 4 lol.
The booking was only for a day as i was trying to do my first ever solo trip and had plans back at home for a friends birthday. The host took off the clock out time in an attempt to make up for the shitshow i had to deal with. I was so pissed at this host i just wanted to get out of the place and got on the road at 9.
I collected all my receipts (screenshots of texts and my attempts of calling him) and sent it all to Mister B&B this afternoon and the person on the phone felt so bad for me that they already processed a refund for me and removing his listings until the case is resolved.

SBI but mostly bedrockbros.
Apocalypse Stories all SbI, Tommy-centric, or BedrockBros.
I'll put down my roots when I'm dead
“I had a little brother. He’s dead.” Wilbur mumbled, and Phil’s heart squeezed. “I’m sorry, mate.” he said. Wilbur swallowed. “It’s fine. It was a while ago.” “How long ago, if you don't mind me asking?” Wilbur looked back at Phil. “A month.” Phil’s eyes widened. He inhaled sharply. That's not a while ago.
or
SBI in a zombie apocalypse
Endure and Survive
Short but is a mix of bedrock bros, Technodad, and Ranboo. It's short and sweet.
“You’re lyin’ to me,” the man said before Tommy could walk out the door. “Aren’t you? I know most groups scoutin’ the area around here, but none of them had a kid with them last time I checked. Unless your group’s not from around here and you 'wandered off' a bit further than anticipated—”
“Fuck off,” Tommy interrupted. “I don’t want to join your stupid group so you can stop trying to talk me into it. I’m better off on my own, anyway.” The man blinked at him, his mouth hung slightly open, but no words came out.
“I’m not part of any group. I’m on my own, too,” the man answered. “You just…you remind me of myself,” he added quietly. Tommy had to strain his ears to hear it.
Or: Tommy and Ranboo are, respectively, suffering during the apocalypse. Techno takes them under his wing.
Brain Dead in the Apocalypse
“Shush, old man. Quiet.” He hissed out, “I’m going for a… walk. I’ll find you two later. Thanks, for- uh, taking care of me, I guess? But also you overstepped my boundaries, like by a thousand times. So I’d appreciate it if you fucked off.” He crossed his arms, letting his bat lean against his leg as he leveled them all with a glare.
“You liked it when I was carrying you—“ Techno, like the fucking bitch he was, decided to throw onto the table. His lips pulled up into a smug smile as Tommy recoiled backwards, feeling his cheeks flush.
“Y-you’ve got it wrong! I fucking hate you, and Phil! The only reason I've stuck around this long is to grace the two of you with my company! I take it all back, neither of you are my idols and I hate you fucking bitches and I never want to see your ugly faces again—“ Tommy rambled, his voice going a couple of pitches higher against his will. Fucking puberty.
“But you said I was your favorite?” Techno innocently asked, “You never acted like this whenever I hold you while you shiver away, clinging onto me like a little baby bird.”
Or Tommy is an infamous villain who attracts the attention of the Syndicate in the apocalypse.
BDITA is one of my top three apocalypse fics because I really don't like zombie apocalypse fics normally. I usually hate them. But BMAF Tommyinnit in a zombie apocalyptic, I at least have to give it a chance and read it.
These are the other ones that are in my top three.
Forged in Blood and Bones
Tommy was just an orphan when the fucking zombie apocalypse hits. He doesn't expect to find a family during end-times, but here we are.
I can't choose which of the two come in slot two. But I'm leading towards "Thats my kid" it's definitely one of the best and the author doesn't give themselves enough credit.
That's my Kid, That's my Sunrise
When the apocalypse started Tommy thought he was going to die the first week. Turns out he lasted longer and with a little companion with him. Or Tommy and shroud the spider but add some angst (of course fluff as well)
[Rough start btw! My writing has improved since then I swear!]
I don't feel like it has a rough start, but it's good
Tainted Love
Thomas Theseus Innit was only 5 when the zombie apocalypse started, 7 when his parents both lost their lives to the weirdly smart and athletic zombies.
Now here he was; after years of surviving on his own, wondering if his decision to go into this strangely abandoned city was a good one.
Especially since the place holds a few walkers way too sentient for his liking, and why won’t they leave him alone? Or His awakening wasn't so peaceful.
The first thing he noticed was that burning feeling that clung to his skin the moment he entered the city.
Like he was being watched.
Then he realized how dark it was. It must still be night, but the soft moonlight that acted as his only comfort was now gone, replaced by a tall shadow. Tommy was confused for a moment, until the shadow moved.
He was up in an instant, whipping around to look at the bedroom window behind him.
There, squating on the apartment buildings fire escape, was a zombie.
It was right up against the glass, rapid breath causing it to fog from its proximity.
It’s blood shot eyes staring right at him.
SBI Zombie Apocalypse AU
This is a Sleepy Bois Inc and Co Zombie Apocalypse au. Basically I write out my interpretation of events that happen in the au and we vibe. They may be a little out of character but shrugs they probably act different in an apocalypse anyway let me live.
The description for the two part series is kinda shit but the actual stories aren't bad at all and are a good read. Again typically hate any and all apocalypse stories but I can read a decent amount.
All the lonely people
Two people lost after the end of the world. One is a boy, confused and scared, missing his older brother and only guardian. The other is a man, on the edge of losing his mind. Together they find each other and find what they are missing. Family.
My favorite duo Bedrock bros, but technodad/dadnoblade version, I've read all 150 tabs of Technoblade & Tommyinnit (Video Blogging RPF) No regrets I do it every couple of weeks because there are always new ones.
Big boys don't cry (even when they should
Hack, slash, hide. Technoblade was quite an expert at this whole apocalypse thing already. It was some time already after all.
Maybe six years? At least three since he had to start gathering things by himself. But Technoblade was proud to be the Provider in his little family. Heaven’s know that Wilbur wouldn’t be able to do half the shit Techno was doing.
Or: Technoblade centric zombie au. I promise, it's a GOOD ENDING, and no, Techno does not die
Honestly no my favorite read but it's still good and could be to someone else's taste. It's just not mine.
Zombie hunting is not an approved camp activity
Building a zombie apocalypse team is hard work, they have to be ready for absolutely anything the apocalypse can throw at them.
So when the apocalypse arrived, Technoblade was displeased to discover his team consisted of himself, three 13 year olds with exactly zero life preservation skills, and a broken figurine of an obscure comic book hero lovingly named Micheal.
When a zombie eventually takes him out, he's going to fist fight whoever decided that these were fair odds.
AKA Techno is a moody teen who hates kids but there's an apocalypse and suddenly he's in charge of three of them, they are the bane of his existence but they are also so small and he would die before he lets them get hurt.
10 out of 10 would recommend. This was a nice long one shot that is absolutely worth the read and probably a reread.
Vampire/Fledgling stories
What did he think about the blood
It's a series called kind smiles accompanied by crimson eyes.
They were one family of sadistic fucks, and that warmed Phil's heart.
OR
Wilbur takes his little brother hunting for the first time.
Behind the restaurant
Tommy's Sir decided to leave him, so now he gets his own food. And so one evening, Past the place where he usually steals from people, a strange looking rich pink-haired man walks, This is Tommy's best chance to earn his own food in weeks.
Or Tommy lives on the street and steals from everyone he sees, until he stumbles upon a rich vampire who seems to know where his Sire is.
Short and sweet story that I recommend if you're looking for a quick read.
I'll send my best regards
It's a 3 part series that I also highly recommend.
New Child Acquired
The Land of His Brothers
Tommy held his breath, his eyes squeezing shut. His feet were placed back on the ground, the hand loosed on his neck, hovering there, barely touching...
He opened his eyes, and looked up at the creature. It was staring at him, he couldn’t make out the emotion on its human-like face. Its golden eyes glistened, piercing, as they met eye to eye.
Finally, after a long moment it spoke, “Hullo.”
Or
There's a lack of Vampire fics in this Fandom and some of ya'll need some good parental figures in your lives.
The ending kinda sucks but it's an ending none the less and over all its a good read.socks.
What Are We Waiting For
“This is probably the worst cell they’ve tried to keep me in,” Tommy says out loud, mostly to himself. The other vampire at least shifts like he heard Tommy.
“I mean really, they’ve got you all chained up, but what about me? You’re big and all, but I doubt you could take me in a fight. I’m the best and biggest man out there, nothing can compare. You would really think that people would learn from their mistakes,” Tommy sighs. He pulls his knees up to his chest and sets his head on them. The humans had interrupted his sleep.
“I don’t think you could beat me in a fight,” the other vampire says after a minute, his voice sounding rough. It’s almost like he had been screaming.
“No, I definitely could. It’s not even a competition,” Tommy says, puffing his chest out. That one earns him a soft snort.
New Moon
“I need your help to kill a vampire,” He mumbles under his breath, his chest rapidly taking in air as his heart pounds in his chest, “Alright? There. Now let me go.”
Techno hums, his hands slowly unwrapping from around his neck, though one lingers. He pushes his chin up with one hand, trialing a finger down his neck with the other. Tommy shivers at the touch, being reminded that the guy in front of him is a fucking vampire.
“Who, little witch?” He croons, goosebumps running up along his arms as Techno stops at his pulse point, no doubt feeling how fast his heart was beating.
Or Tommy is a lonely witch that falls right into the hands of three waiting vampires.
It was one of the better vampire stories and a worth it read plus it's part of a series of different stories.
Soulmate-Alternate Universe
Soul Paint
Tommy remembered a time when his skin was painted with the marks of those, he knew, loved him. Until the day he realized they faded.
Exile Canon Divergence fic, where Tommy realizes the soul marks, shared with his family and friends, have disappeared. He’s convinced he’s become unlovable. His family tries to fix that.
Smoke fills the lungs
Dandelions represented rebirth, the first sign of life that sprouted after a harsh winter. So Tommy couldn't help but believe as those same petals spilled from his mouth that maybe he needed to die before he was someone worthy of love.
Or Exile BedrockBros Soulmate/Hanahaki AU
This is one of my favorite soulmate fics. It does include hanahaki in it, my guilty pleasure is Hanahaki, Major character death. Or neglected Tommyinnit fics.
I will look for you as the sun rises higher
What is your heart's true desire?
What is it that you really want?
The question was asked too often by people that the gods decided to lend an ear.
Thus, soulmates were created.
OR
MCD March prompt #15: 'Hold still' with bedrockbros
Another favorite I recommend to read. It's short and sweet.
Withered Feathers
Tommy is a crime fighting vigilante by night. By day, he's a tired café worker. He ignores the wither rose and feather on his back. It's not important, his soulmates will come when they come. He needs to focus. The Syndicate is an ever looming threat for his vigilante persona. And his life outside of it is complicated as a nearing-adult pretending to be almost 20.
This story definitely could have put more focus on the soulmate aspect and be more descriptive in my opinion but it's not a bad read.
You're on your own kid )you always have been)
6,000 words and absolutely one of my if not my favorite bedrockbros soulmate fics. It's a good read and I've reread it a million times.
Branded Hearts and Golden Anchors
Everyone had at least one soulmate in Tommy’s world and everyone, par a select few, yearned for the day that words would begin to appear across their body, showing just what their soulmate thought of them, after all it showed only if it was utterly and completely true in their heart. It was how you knew you had met them because nobody could form a proper opinion of someone they had never met, right?
Yet maybe some could.
When Tommy was born, pink and screaming, a singular word scrawled across his heart, it’s ink black and damning with promise.
Mine.
OR: A possessive SBI soulmate AU
It gets dark towards the end, like real dark but not exactly dead dove do not eat. But in my opinion if you're more sensitive you might think that should be a tag.
As God Looks On in Abject Apathy
Technoblade was the blood god, he had no need for a soulmate. He fought and he killed without discrimination, he was something unholy, something monstrous, something made from blood. He had no need for weakness, for a soulmate.
Tommy dies on the battlefield. He dies young and bloody, with no soulmark, no soulmate.
Another favorite probably equal or more of a favorite than "you're on your own (you always have been)" highly recommend.
I Loved You Like The Sun
It had been hard, at first. To accept that they wanted him.
That he wanted him.
But they would wait as long as it took.
Tommy was theirs after all.
Or
(Platonic) SoulmateAu with AngelDuo fluff.
Oh, and TwinsDuo are there.
And it's a FosterAu.
It's so cute and is about angel duo and I just can't help but like it.
Brave face, talk so lightly, hide the truth
Tommy's never been real big on the whole soulmate thing, if he does have a soulmate they're probably not a huge fan of him due to the times he gets punched in the face or runs into tables. What he doesn't expect is his foster-brother, Wilbur, to be his soulmate.
Tommy’s eyes land on Wilbur, “Your soulmate is probably being abused.”
Tommy gets to watch the blood run out of Wilbur’s face, and how he goes deathly pale in about five seconds.
“Huh?” Wilbur whispers.
Crimeboys soulmate au + foster au. This is another favorite duo of mine, although nothing compares to my addiction for bedrockbros. Highly recommend but trigger warning includes talks of abuse and bullying.
Please don't fine me (I'm not ok)
Tommy does not breathe and he does not laugh and he does not swear. Tommy is not the harsh cry of a fledgling eagle soaring over the brisk mountain tops. Tommy is not the wind teasing the tall aspen, Tommy is not the babbling brook in the morning sun. Tommy is not life itself and he is not nothing at once.
Or at least, not anymore.
or: a c!bedrock bros hanahaki soulmate au with plenty of allium duo fluff as well <3
Has my top two favourite duos. Also this story has a special place in my heart always making me eye water. No I don't cry over stories! You're crying over stories!
Building Bonds
Tommy had been in the foster system since he was six, and every family he had been placed with since then turned him away within a couple months for being a "problem child". The only thing that had kept him going was the pale yellow band around his wrist and the bond that was connected to it.
Only, he hadn’t seen his soulmate in over two years and now he was standing in front of a new house, once again preparing to be thrown out within the month.
A little bedrock, a little angel duo, and lots of past trauma for Tommy. This is crime boy soulmate+foster au. Tommy and Wilbur are separated as Wilbur aged out of the system.
To Be Hesitant of Acceptence
Hey Tommy," he said, cheerfully. "Clocking in, big man?" he tilts his head, offering a smile.

"Yep, you clocking out, boss man?" he hiked his bag higher on his shoulder.

"Yep. Was gonna work overtime but my schedule changed at school again. Wil should be here though if you wanna bother him."

"Oooh, I might." He started to walk back to the employee area before he turned on his heels. "Tell Boob Boy and Yellowed that we still gotta do the thing."

Tubbo rolled his eyes. "Very specific, Tommy. And I will."

Or Tommy works in a store in a world where everyone has soulmate identifying marks at 18. Follow this short journey where he finds his soulmates and his reaction. Bad summary, but I promise the fic is good.
Classic Tommy being iffy about soulmates ans running away when he meets his soulmate. The amout of soulmate au, where he doesnt think he deserves one, has one, or doesn't want one is in so many fics
Paint me in colors (I can no longer see)
It was expected, everyone had soul mates and every one of them left a mark the first time they touched you. A brush of color to remind you that you are loved and loved back. It was human. Tommy loved without restraint and by the tender age of ten he had the habit of marking everyone he touched, and they stuck.
This is an angsty story. That all I have to say
I saw you on the train last night (and I just walked on by)
Platonic Soulmate AU CrimeBoys Edition
Wilbur soot is stuck in a time loop. The only way out of it is to find his “soulmate”.
Well, Wilbur doesn’t believe in soulmates.
TLDR: Time loop shenanigans with Wilbur Soot
I personally usually hate timeloop stories, but I make an exception for soulmate timeloops. Good read definitely recommend it. Crime boys soulmates au.
Forged in Love
"So don’t fucking underestimate me, Blade. Adults tend to forget that kids don’t exactly have strong morals to get what they want.” Techno stared down into the baby blue eyes, a familiar spark of thrill reaching his heart, the same spark he felt when he first met Phil.
“I doubt you have an extra mending book laying around.” Are you truly worthy of my curiosity?
“I actually do, prick.” Fuck. You.
—
Tommy may seem harmless at first glance, but Phil and Techno know otherwise. To be a gemsmith, a person who connects soulmates, is not a profession for those who are docile.
But Tommy is intriguing at first glance. Always talking, always moving, always challenging them. So they stick around. Not too long though, they have two other soulmates to find, but long enough to develop their relationship beyond customer and shopkeeper.
If only they realized why they were developing this relationship in the first place before the Hunters came knocking on Tommy’s shop.
Or
Local child is snarky enough to catch two war General’s attention and it escalating from there
This is one of my favorite longer soulmate stories and a very good read. I highly recommend it and on my opinion it's one of the better multi-chapter soulmate stories. Not better than "As God Looks On in Abject Apathy" in my opinion.
My Bond and My Enemy
Tommy is ready to visit the city on his own, without his coven following him. It's been five years since he's turned, so he thinks it's only fair. It's during this outing that he meets Technoblade.

OR
Soulmate AU, based on the prompt (SPOILERS) "Platonic soul mates except its a vampire who finds out their soul mate is either a Werewolf or vampire hunter" by bberry
A good read, short yet with a decent amount of words. Good choice if your looking for a quick read that's not a oneshot.
The chances for meeting your soulmate are slim but never zero
Tommy had three soulmates. He had named them Crow, Note and Poem according to the way he can identify them. Yet why must they be so hard to find? How is he meant to not doubt fate when he was already 16 and had not found his soulmate?
——————————
Or: Tommy doubts the red string of fate, therefore fate sends him off on a trip of chance to find his soulmates in different places. Who would have known an arcade would be the place he’d find his first?
It's cute SBI soulmates and absolutely worth the read and I love it and it has Technoblade meeting Tommy in person. It pulls on my heartstrings because they never got to do that IRL.
Sanguine Souls
The world hates soulmates.
It’s a contradictory thing, there are very good and very valid reasons for it despite how alluring the concept of soulmates is. It must be nice. Imagine someone fated for you to trust forever, to behold, in every waking moment, with lingering thoughts and associations about happiness and goodness and everything that should be lovely in any sort of relationship between two people. It’s a beautiful concept.
Too beautiful.
Technoblade blinks. There’s a familiar sound from the television. He looks up, and he sees the familiar flash of reds and blues on the television screen with a dreadful set of words underneath it.
‘SOULMATES CONFIRMED. ONE DECEASED.’

~+~
OR Soulmate AU where An Encounter with Death is a necessary requirement, according to the laws of the universe, to confirm who your soulmate is. Technoblade and Wilbur had gotten the wrong message one time, but the world corrects that when Tommy runs into them.
OR OR Twinsduo angst to give rise to Bedrock bros until it somehow turns into Neapolitan Trio in the ending. PROMPT: soulmate wasn't who they thought they would be
Tommy is Tommy, Techno is srubborn and denying the truth. Wilbur is just... angsty with bedrockbros soulmates in the mix. Good read I recommend and this is one of my top ten soulmate recs.
Gentle people (with flowers in their hair)
In a world where soulmates existed, Tommy didn’t want anything to do with it.
When he was eight, his father left Tommy’s mother, because he didn’t really want to marry her, but the universe forced his hand.
Now, he was sixteen, and staring with wide eyes as Wilbur Soot gestured wildly, revealing flowers on his arm identical to the ones Tommy had concealed before the stream.
or, Tommy doesn't want one soulmate, never mind three
Classic Tommy not wanting a soulmate because he's tramitized by his parents being horrible soulmates and not working.
Fae
the wild hunt of old (will bring something new)
Tommy could feel his presence behind him, keeping his mouth shut as a hand reached over, grasping the hand that had him in a grip, cutting the boy off from his words, like he had stolen them from his mouth himself.
“Who did this to you Theseus?” Muted gasps were shared as the drumming and whispers were joined by the howls of the hounds.
“All of them.” He whispered sadly, eyes unable to look away from the looks of hatred and betrayal. But there was no pity for them. They had made their beds and he knew that Techno would make them lie in them.

Tommy found his home in the forest. However his treatment from his own home will be their undoing when the Fae King unleashes the Wild Hunt.
Absolutely my favorite fae fic and a top 3 fic ever my ao3 list. Possessive Technoblade is there and is a little dark but nowhere close to dead dove do not eat. I could probably recite most if not all of this story.
Follow the golden hair and sapphires that stare back
"I know how to get there, I'm not the one lost, you are." The kid exclaims and Wilbur humours him. He knows kids like to put on a brave face although this kid seems to be pretty good at it.
"Oh yeah? Well, I guess you gotta help me out huh?"
The enthusiastic nod that follows is worth it as the kid jumps around like he's got too much energy in his tiny body.
"I will, but only if you do one thing." The kid says, almost seriously as he puts up a one finger.
Wilbur crouches fully now, hands still on his knees still.

"Oh yeah and what's that?"

The kids smile turns sweet as he rocks on his heels and folds his arms behind his back.
"Can I know your name?" He asks sweetly, like a kid asking for some sweets before bed. There's a fight going on in his head. A small part saying no but the bigger says what's the harm?
It's just a kid.
"I'm Wilbur."
Or
Wilbur cuts through a park to get home. Doesn't look where he's going and then, pop, he's in the world of the fae. It's part of a fae series where Tommy tricks sbi. Good read and super worth it.
Bullied by fae
The fae scrunches his nose and huffs, "I'm gonna send you to my brother so he can bully your ass and get you into our realm, dick'ead."
Techno only hums, sliding his basket down from his arm, to his hand, "Yeah kid, send me to big brother."
Or;
Techno meets fae!Tommy. He's not really how he pictured fae to be
It's just funny and makes me smile and it's Tommy being Tommyinnit but fae. Techno being Techno. Looking for somthing short and funny this is it.
Nectar and Blood
Blade had a quiet life.
Nothing out of the ordinary happened to him – which is why it came as such a shock when a boy walked into the smithy.
Blade could feel the difference in the boy before he ever laid eyes on him. He could feel the way the already warm forge seemed to burn brighter in the presence of the creature that just stepped in.
And of course, the sight of the fae – even dressed down to fit in with the townspeople more, they stuck out like a sore thumb. The boy's hair was shaped into perfect, shining golden curls. Their eyes shone as blue as the summer skies, and even their relatively drab brown clothing was perfectly clean, free of any mud or dust from the streets.
Blade paused in his work, enough to give a polite greeting. Whether they were inside a faerie ring or not, the fae always worked by the same rules. Such rules had been imprinted into Blade’s mind before he had ever been allowed to step outside of his family's home.
Tommys good at using Technos desire and affection against him. One of the good fae fics.

I know this is hard to believe for skeptics especially on reddit, but if you're spiritual like most Aaliyah fans who are keeping her legacy alive, these 2 are the ones that I believe:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoZtPX1cbBQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SpajvbObrQ
For superfans channeling Aaliyah with Tarot cards and the sorts, they tend contaminate what they heard on the news, rumors, and documentaries to cast judgement on the cards drawn instead of having actual channeled Aaliyah tell her story because similar to her music, the message she is trying to convey is sweet yet subtle while hiding the complicated truths to unveil on their own to those who are more in tune with the details. People using cards tend to cast judgement too harshly on what ambiguities they mean and try to shovel this narrative that conspiracy theory videos already exploited with clickbait.
I feel like the tarot card readings are a sham because if you are a good storyteller already familiar with her story trying to convey an agenda with a few slight-of-hand parlour tricks, you can just tell a story and hide all the cards that don't go with the narrative...there are videos where people literally drew a boar but because a boar didn't have anything to do with Aaliyah, she put it back in the deck and reshuffled...she also drew 3 cards in advance for a clickbait narrative without actually getting them by random or the cards were color coded to begin with so she knew what to pick even upon shuffling.
Similar to those psychics who are held captive by the powers that be, they tend to have platinum hair and the first thing they do after being freed is to cut their hair and dye it brown to diminish their psychic/ESP abilities so to be less useful for their handlers. For that one guy who has this device that plays the voice of dead people, that guy just chops up random vocals from old clips and make it talk like that, prior to AI covers, as some type of necro performance arts to desperate and gullible people for views. For his Kobe video, it's not even Kobe's voice, because fans have watched enough of Kobe interviews to know which interview those chopped clips came from, so that's why it's in another voice -- debunked
Watch her other videos channeling other souls of Left Eye, Diana, and 2Pac -- it's easier to actually conduct an interview and upload back to back with new subtle details, do an impression of their active voice of how they feel present day, and what direction of conversation they want to lead than to do all the background research like for a documentary piece just to fake their personality, because people change over time, especially after death, with time to reflect on it all from the vantage point to review what really happened that led them down their path.

Notes from the 2 videos: watch them for yourself to draw your own conclusions and turn on captions to note the subtleties, but like for any veteran Aaliyah fan, links go down or missing all the time so take heed to save. I actually had something tugging at my heart almost like a backseat editor to present the notes as accurately as possible from what was reported in the videos. For these notes, I don't have this distinction between her energy/soul/spirit and I use them interchangeably in case there is a distinction. The eternal present is not aligned with the human perception of time so her soul can traverse her life from the vantage point of how old she was then and visit other memories of past lives. Her current soul identifies as Aaliyah in her past life but she has moved beyond that spiritually to be identified as who she truly is.
Both channelers got signs that her soul wanted to speak either in signals from their dreams or being awakened with signs of her presence. Her soul got the attention of one channeler by portraying herself as Akasha from Queen on the Damned, because her initial sign was somewhat naively ignored. The other more veteran channeler basically read her star chart and found her soul by meditating to find the distinct outline of her spirit and personality. They literally have the outline spirit of Aaliyah here in front of them while they were doing the video where her spirit could correct them in the middle of talking if they got something wrong. I like how in the middle of these soul channeling conversations, her soul is actively telling the channeler to look and interview other souls like Whitney and Left Eye as more evidence that the industry is vile and deceptive like that.
Aaliyah's mom was supposed to be the superstar singer that Aaliyah came to be back in the 80s, but Aaliyah's mom had a pregnancy and stalled her career to raise a child with Aaliyah's dad, who was a bit passive in the relationship. Aaliyah's soul upon reflection realized that at a young age that Aaliyah was given positive conditioning to sing, dance, and perform not realizing what she really wanted in life but she grew to appreciate it and be good at it by living her mother's dreams vicariously through her to be in childhood servitude for entertainment value. Because she was positioned in an entertainment family, it was said that her soul constantly chose these type of families to be born in -- lifetime after lifetime of entertainment servitude for being dependent upon for raising overall family wealth and status -- and that her soul in the afterlife said that she is thriving alongside older women idols (including Whitney Houston and her Grandmother) to figure out who she really is, by identifying and correcting who she really wanted to be to not fall into another life like that. The soul is said to be a thousand to a million years old and they spend time living life (sometimes being indoctrinated or groomed to become a certain individual by families who predetermine your life when you are born), taking time in between lives, and going back and forth in between realms of existence almost like a conditioning for the soul to learn from its own strengths and mistakes when pit against the realities that be. Her soul at the present is thriving and fully disassociated herself from the entertainment industry and when the Channeler praised that "Aaliyah was a good dancer, singer, and performer" at 13:18 in the second video, her soul was actually saying "what?" and disagreeing because her soul moved beyond that identity in the afterlife.
In terms of the R Kelly relationship, both videos said that there was a pregnancy and a pregnancy scare associated with an unnamed family member and R Kelly, respectively. The faces of the channeler reflected how hard of a topic it was for her with regrets and sadness. There was sexual abuse at a young age and because Aaliyah was inside a family record label business which was more ran like a gang-organized crime ring, it was like a pyramid scheme inside a pyramid scheme structure because her family signed off on and was aware of a lot of things she had to do in the industry for her to advance her career when she was just a minor. Her soul also admitted when asked that more than one person in the family including her uncle had sexual advances towards her when she was 12-13 and she was later married to "protect the family asset." In the Chris Brown video remixing "Don't Think They Know" with Aaliyah, there was a lot of imagery where the Bloods that Chris Brown initially was a part of represented "The Family music business" with children and adults -- it was a homely vibe but your royalties are diminished by two layers of pyramid schemes. Then Chris Brown moved and joined the Crips, which were more males, which represented "rappers and industry sharks like Dame Dash" that Aaliyah associated herself with to remove herself from the family business and deal directly with labels. Near the end of the music video, the whites of Chris Brown eyes were shown representing her death and the last scene had him be with all different colors and children as a depiction of heaven, representing unity and no longer associating gang-organized crime by colors. Aaliyah was very intuitive and realized that her talent is multiplied by image for her branding of music to sell -- There are plenty of talented individuals that became ghostwriters because the general public requires image, which creates the branding package to drive sales and relevancy. Therefore, half the interview in one of the channeling sessions had her soul emphasize how protective she was of her image and how her image was affected in a series of events in her life. In terms of Kelly's current image, her soul says that his reactions to the accusations have gotten him to look more guilty than who he actually is and that he himself was in servitude of his environment being born into these type of families with entertainment expectations.
Both Channelers made it their point to revile R Kelly as their separate opinion, but when they asked her soul about it, she explained that R Kelly is a sweet person ("sweet" being a word she commonly said in a particular intonation -- remember this is her soul speaking in the present and not from past conversations with Dame) who wants to do good but has different compartments in his head, where he forgets all the misdeeds that he did or was a part of, from issues stemming from his own upbringing of musical servitude and sexual abuse, which alter his perception towards females. Kelly and Aaliyah have similar backgrounds in victimhood from similar family pressures to succeed and be harvested for wealth and status to benefit the gang-organized crime ring AKA the family-run music business, so a lot of things her soul said was deemed "normal" sounds outrageous for the general public to hear and were brushed under the rug to keep moving forward. Her soul said things were done behind the scenes to protect the image of both and cannot be directly explained because the general public wouldn't understand it. Her parents were well aware she was pregnant and got the paperwork to get a marriage certificate to get an abortion, where the hormone imbalance stunted some of her growth as a woman. The channeler saw some type of pill being exchanged through a mouth to mouth kiss between Kelly and Aaliyah. The marriage was not out of love but was a ritual exchange of goods and services to protect both families' musical assets, like back when royal families strategically married to form alliances and to exchange their resources more evenly. The marriage was initially set up to protect Aaliyah from being preyed by the sexual predators of the industry when in studio collaborations, but that ended up being R Kelly and blackballed her career by her second album to work with new producers after the marriage certificate leaked by a rival record company. Since Aaliyah's first album was mostly produced and written by R Kelly, it may have also been used for accounting purposes to split the profits more evenly or claim tax benefits once they were married to satisfy both family-ran music businesses (which is similar to Jay-Z's and Beyonce's marriage seen more as a business merger). It was later annulled because the public found out, which leveraged the outrage towards Kelly to give up the proceeds of his first 3 albums to Aaliyah's family, except that Barry managed both artists, so the majority of the money literally moved from his left pocket to his right pocket.
Her soul said Aaliyah realized that she could wield her sexuality, body, and confidence as a flirtatious tool in exchange for goods and services without having to participate in sexual acts to be worth value and move into that power. For the sake of her image gaining relevancy to rise up the pyramid scheme to have more control and autonomy over her career, she was proud and not ashamed to use it because of how sexualized the industry is. She used her sexuality as her empowerment to woo strong male figures into her life that she could trust (DMX, Dame) to protect her more from her family and shady industry individuals who 'expected' her to perform for granted and on harsh schedules/deadlines without much royalties going to her. Her soul reflected and said that she should have taken the industry for granted instead of deeming it as a chore to complete, and instead should have taken a break, where she could have gotten married and had kids with Dame regardless of limelight relevancy, which she still regrets not being able to start her own family. Her soul made it a point to analyze her facial expressions to when she was "feeling it" or when it was done out of haste to impress certain authorities. Her soul said that manipulating sexuality for personal gain does destroy something within you spiritually but she was incorporating it for the image and hopefully fans can separate what is depicted by the media versus what truly happened. Her soul said that Aaliyah really loved Dame Dash and what benefited her was that Dame was the cofounder of Rocafella records, which would have gotten her leverage and the connections to move away from her family-ran music label and directly negotiate her deal. Her soul said that her uncle was nefarious and he was losing control and rank in the pyramid scheme that he made with his music label. She was in the middle of being freed from Blackground records to record new material under her control but because she died, he got to keep the majority of the unreleased recordings while her estate was responsible for her image. As stated, the image in tandem with the artistic talents in music are multiplied to propel the branding for relevancy and sales. The estate doesn't want her music to profit the wrong individuals in the family business except that both need to work together for her legacy to be revived. She has a heartfelt message to her fans who uphold and still bring her legacy into prominence after all these years.
Outside of Whitney Houston (that she is really good friends with), her soul kept on pointing to Jennifer Lopez to the channeler in terms of similarities in industry arrival -- JLo was doing dance, Latin, and pop music on her first albums before she transitioned into hip hop and R&B with the help of industry heads in Diddy and Tommy Mottola buying leftover shelved demos from Usher and Brandy, etc and emulating Mariah Carey singles before having Ashanti and Natasha Ramos, etc craft her next singles. JLo leveraged her sexuality to woo heads of record labels (similar to the gentler, natural relationship that Aaliyah found with Dame), where JLo was used to fill the R&B void that Aaliyah left, outside of the rise of Ashanti, Mya, Beyonce, Ciara, Keri Hilson, revival of Monica, etc where Missy was helping some of them succeed. Aaliyah would have found a more flattering way to produce hits and be a trendsetter without harming relationships with other artists in the industry. At the time of her Red album, she said her uncle and his shady industry partners were losing the battle for control and custody over her and she was supposed to be set free from her Blackground label. Her soul said Jay-Z was nefariously scheming over her but wanted her to be in servitude for him in marriage, which is why in the pictures Jay grabbed her by the waist to dance with her (pay attention to facial expressions, similar to how worried she looked at the Nas I Am album release party). She said Jay was wanting to control her towards something sinister to cover up his own insecurities, and that he wanted to teach her a lesson for choosing Dame (which was also why later Dame got screwed out the deal when Rocafella folded and was sold to Def Jam). The Rocafella hand symbol was just a representation reminder for those climbing the pyramid to aim for the top, for how the industry is structured. For example, Kanye took advantage of Rocafella Records and Dame Dash by having his creative output of The College Dropout without the standardization of how rap records were supposed to sound like, where every song Aaliyah sang about was about Love and relationships for R&B records, dictated by her uncle. She was more in control and freeform being in a relationship with Dame, where she said she truly loved him, had a heart connection, and was happy with him.
Upon reflecting on the day of her death, her soul said that her uncle was losing leverage towards controlling her (where she made the majority of the record label's profits) and how she was about to be freed from her uncle's record label. The shady industry conglomerates that her uncle had shady dealings with were also upset and her soul said there were a consortium of shadowy industry conspirators that wanted her demise to control and profiteer off her discography had she died, from how 2Pac and Biggie's music sold way more as one last huzzah before they were supposed to get out their initial contracts and launch their own independent labels. Given that Blackground did a new deal with Virgin Records for her Red album after leaving Atlantic after OIAM, look into Richard Branson (who was associated with Jeffery Epstein, a wall-street magnate) and how the new label backed out and dropped Aaliyah when she died so they wouldn't have to pay for funeral services. Because Aaliyah was dropped from Virgin records after death, Blackground records stopped receiving payments and the funeral bill of $60k went to the estate to cover, where Maxwell picked up the tab. Obviously, she had a premonition dream about her death being floating and weightless from some entity chasing her where all her worries wisped away.
She had a bad feeling about the plane. Her soul reflected that there was something wrong with the airplane tire pressure and one of the airplane instruments was being tampered with and was malfunctioning done on purpose to sabotage the plane. The heavyset man was probably her 300 pound bodyguard discussing some type of deal with the pilot to get them back into the states that she wasn't paying attention to happening in the background. She said that the pilot was the fall guy placed in that position and that the autopsy report saying that there were traces of cocaine and alcohol was a "media trick" to impress upon the public something was at fault with the pilot. It was said that the airplane pilot was the son of a veteran pilot and he had many undocumented hours when flying as a kid with his dad because he had an innate skill to fly without having proper documentation procedures. The pilot was put in this predicament of being on probation for stealing airplane parts and was pressured to fly to keep his job. Her soul said that at the time, she was blind sighted by her anger and the pursuit for her career to be successful and to prove the executives at Virgin Records wrong that 'Rock the Boat' was a good single to be release for her album. Because of this anger, he soul said that she claimed responsibility for flying out a day early to catch other deadlines of recording the Timbaland remix to more than a woman and a feature with Freeway in Miami and that the pressures that resulted in her decisions and actions created hasty judgement overlooking the obvious danger signs and common sense of overloaded/unbalanced luggage. She said that once they were in the air and the plane began to dip and the pilot had to readjust, it was reported in the autopsy report that she died of a shock to the system from a weak heart, suggesting that she was in a coma. She was found 20 feet away from the wreckage where there was one bruise on her forehead and she was in a fetal position. One of the channelers said that when she fainted in midair from her anxiety of flying, she actually felt no pain from the impact and transitioned to the other side where there was a rescue for her soul by her Grandmother that she honored on her red album.
Her soul said that it took her soul 4 years after her death to piece together what had happened that lead her down this path and how to correct for it. She said in her afterlife, she is surrounded by older women as guidance, especially her Grandmother and Whitney, to learn the lessons of not choosing her mortal life path to be stuck in this life of expectation and servitude of having entertainment as a chore to complete for the dangling pursuit of true freedom, but to choose freedom from expectations the minute it appears instead of toil in the guise of it being a careereputation to uphold. She was on the right path towards finding true love with Dame without using marriage as a business pact. She got the upper hand but because she was so low on the pyramid structure of the industry, the powers that be can pull the plug or interfere from her attempts to get free even though she came so close into doing so. Her soul has learned to not pattern her lifetime to be born into these families with entertainment expectations. She said that life is one big stage and some choose the spotlight but everyone has this expectation to contribute to become something. Certain families that your soul ends up being born in have certain agendas for their kids -- they give you the luxuries of life but you have to serve their agenda instead of letting souls pick up life on how they naturally want to be. Her soul said that in order to correct this, she is thriving in the afterlife towards identifying who she really is and recognize the pattern of what life she wants to pick up next without falling into the same situations. My thoughts are that she was so different and had so much style and swag and stood alone that she was a trendsetter without being one by proving to the public she can be her own without following any previous standards or expectations. Even though she was put into that life, she took over and quintessentially became her own person with humility, class, and grace -- people eventually become divas almost as a defense mechanism because of how brutal the industry is towards casting judgement or casting falsehoods about your character because of their struggle for power, greed, and control.
Her souls' words to her mother said that she loved and forgave her in terms of being casted the expectations to perform in industry at such a young age before she had her own impressions of what she wanted in life. She had a lot of good laughter and fond memories but it was in a somber tone due to all the secrets kept. Her soul said that she loved her brother with a lot of emotion and she will never speak badly about him for defending her reputation. She said industry politics got in the way of true progress on her legacy and it wasn't up to the spiritual realm for when her legacy is fully restored to the public. Her soul said that she sacrificed the parts of herself that she understands and identifies with now for the branding and the image of Aaliyah but nobody can decide who you choose your life to be but it is manipulated by the media and family to chase certain ideologies and lifestyles over others. The last message her soul had was that there is a 10 year old girl with her similar looks and poise that they are bringing to the public, who also have this strong connection to her Grandmother, except that this is coming from another entertainment family where the kid is positioned to perform out of expectation and they are drawing inspiration from Aaliyah to mimic and recreate her energy for another money grab. Notice that the 2 videos were done in 2017 and 2019, so they have no way to name that individual except that Blue Ivy was mentioned by her Grandmother that she reminded her of Aaliyah on IG recently, so Blue Ivy is probably the person her soul is talking about that they are trying to rechannel her energy through this little girl as a part of their family entertainment business. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLOuP7WxP-Q If the channelers had "lucky guesses", then how did they stick their neck out and predict that 4-6 years in advance without even having a name?
If there are other channeling videos that you deem to be legit without the cards, let me know.

Chapter 80
Summerslam ‘16
The Raw after Battleground starts up and we see Bray Wyatt in the ring. Bray is laughing while he holds the WWE Championship in his hand. Bray has a mic and he says that Drew McIntyre should have really listened to him. Bray says that Drew really felt the full force of him at Battleground, and Drew deserved every second of it. Bray says that his time at the top of the mountain will continue because of him. Drew McIntyre then comes out and he has a mic and is extremely angry. Drew says that Bray is nothing but a freak that caught him off guard at Battleground. Bray is laughing at Drew, and Drew says that he also thinks that it is funny that Bray can’t win by himself and he has to be cheap and use tricks to win. Bray tells Drew that it has nothing to do with that, it is when his spirit goes into Bray is when he gets like that. Bray says that it isn’t a trick, and that it is instead a gift. Drew says that he doesn’t care what Bray thinks it is, and he demands a rematch, or else. Drew then calls out Paul Heyman to make it official. Paul comes out and he says that next week there will be a number one contenders match for Bray Wyatts WWE title, and it will be between Randy Orton and Chris Jericho. Drew says that Paul Heyman must be joking. Paul says that he is very serious. Paul then says that Drew has already had his rematch and he has failed. Drew says that he demands a title match, and he demands to fight at Summerslam. Paul tells Drew that he is sick of his demands. Paul says that he is in charge on Raw, not Drew. Paul says that right now he is going to put Drew in his place. Drew says that Paul will regret this. Paul then says that he doesn’t think he will. Paul then says that no, Drew will not fight for a title, but he will fight at Summerslam. Paul then says that there has to be someone who can humble Drew at Summerslam, and Paul will find them, and he will introduce them to Drew next week. Drew chuckles and he wishes the best of luck to Paul Heyman on his quest. Paul then walks away. Up next we see Wade Barrett in the back and he is rubbing his jaw. Wade says that Sheamus wants to talk about cheap? Wade then asks what that was at Battleground. Wade says that Sheamus is nothing but a cheap coward. Wade then says that Sheamus can wait until Summerslam now. Wade then says that is invoking his rematch clause at Summerslam, and he is going to show Sheamus a thing or two, when he puts his classless ass down. Wade then walks away. Finally we see Charlotte Flair come out to the ring, and she grabs a mic. Charlotte says that the fight with Paige was everything that she hoped for and more. Charlotte says that Paige is a true champion for all of her fans when she is in the ring. Charlotte then says that Paige is also a great and honorable challenger, which was a nice change of pace. Sasha Banks then comes out to the ring with a mic. Charlotte does not look happy. Sasha asks her what that is supposed to mean? Charlotte tells Sasha that she knows exactly what it means. Sasha asks Charlotte who she is. Sasha then thinks just because she has gotten lucky against her, and won a proper match at Battleground, that she is head and shoulders above everyone else? Charlotte then says that at least she won her match, unlike Sasha. Sasha then tells Charlotte to look at the flip side of things. Sasha then says that Becky wasn’t able to beat her, but she was once able to beat Charlotte Flair. Sasha then says that she still wants another shot at the Womens title. We then hear the music of Becky Lynch. Becky grabs a mic and gets in the ring. Becky looks at Sasha and she tells her that she won’t get a title shot. Becky says that since they have come up to the main roster, she has had more success than Sasha did. Becky says that already she is a former Womens Champion, and Ms. Money in the Bank. Becky asks Sasha what she has done? Sasha then tells Becky that she has kicked her ass a couple times. Sasha then reminds her that Charlotte has never been able to pin Sasha or make her properly Tap Out. Sasha then says that she mentioned how Becky once beat Charlotte Flair. Sasha then says that Charlotte Flair has also beaten Becky, and pinned her twice! Sasha then says that neither Becky or Charlotte have ever actually been able to beat Sasha Banks. Becky then tells Sasha that she wasn’t able to beat either Becky or Charlotte. Becky then says that she and Sasha will one day have a rematch, and it will be one for the ages. Becky says that in the meantime, she is focused only on the Womens Championship. Becky then asks Charlotte for a match at Summerslam. Sasha then tells Becky to back off, and then she asks Charlotte for a match at Summerslam. Charlotte smiles and she says that she will let them both know next week who she wants to fight at Summerslam. Charlotte then walks away and Raw goes off the air.
The Smackdown after Battleground is up next and it starts out with John Cena coming out and he grabs a mic. Cena says that he has a confession. Cena says that he has really been trying hard to get a title shot. Cena says that he wants a shot at Summerslam. Cena says that he has been involved in movies for a few years now, and he has been getting more requests from Hollywood to be in movies. Cena says they are giving him offers that he just cannot turn down. Cena says that now, years later he understands why the Rock came back to WWE less and less. John Cena says that he will soon be on that path. Cena says that immediately after Summerslam, he will only come back part time in WWE. Cena says that he loves the WWE and he wants to continue to give fans some enjoyment, but he cannot do it all the time anymore. Cena says that he will be back for special events, but they will be few and far between. Cena then says that he has had a legendary full time run in WWE. Cena says that he became one of the all time great United States Champions. Cena says that he held the World title many times. Cena says that he was even Tag Team Champions with some guys that he really didn’t get along with. John Cena then says that there is just one thing that he has not done in WWE and that is to hold the Intercontinental Championship. Cena says that he wants to hold that title before he goes part time in WWE. Cena says that he wants to win that title to end his legendary full time career, and start his soon to be legendary part time career. Cena then says that he expects an answer from Cody Rhodes next week. Cena drops the mic and he leaves the ring. Up next we see the Usos in the ring and they have mics. The Usos talk about their epic Tag Team match at Battleground and how they won and defended their Tag Team titles yet again. Jey says that RVD and Abyss were great for a team that has just started out. Jimmy then says that they almost gave them a run for their money at Battleground. Jey then says that now the Usos have to switch gears, because it is time for Summerslam. Jimmy says that it is the biggest party of the Summer, and now they are going to have to expect only the best challengers. The Usos are then attacked by two masked figures. These two men viciously beat down the Usos and laid waste to them. These two giant men then look down at the beaten Usos, before walking away. Up next we have a match between Braun Strowman and Joe Hennig. Joe tries to get some sort of advantage on the big man, but Braun manhandles Joe and starts to slam him on the mat over and over again. Joe can’t even stand and we see Braun pick him up and hit a Running Powerslam. Braun then pins Joe for the win. Braun grabs a mic and he says that he wants a legit challenge. Braun says that he is tired of these little boys coming and trying to challenge him, he wants to fight a real man soon. Braun then leaves the ring. Finally we see Roman Reigns come out to the ring with the World Heavyweight Championship. Roman Reigns is laughing and he says that these old guys really shouldn’t mess around with him. Roman says that he can’t believe he got both Sting and Rey Mysterio to leave WWE. Roman says that that makes him a true legend already in WWE. Roman then says that he would love to see who would dare fight him at Summerslam. We then hear the music of Tyler Reks. Roman looks over, and he looks shocked. Tyler Reks gets in the ring and grabs a mic. Tyler says that he has listened to Roman Reigns attack and bash these legends for months. Tyler says that he is sick of it. Tyler says that he is going to be the one to challenge Roman Reigns at Summerslam for the World Heavyweight Championship. Tyler then asks Roman what he thinks about that. Roman says that he thinks that at Summerslam he will put Tyler Reks down. Roman says that a lot of men still fear Tyler Reks. Roman says that he doesn’t fear Tyler Reks, and that Tyler Reks should fear him. Roman says that Tyler has been beaten before, and Roman hasn’t. Tyler says that there is a first time for everything, and that he fears no one. Tyler says that at Summerslam he will be the man who beats Roman Reigns. Tyler then says that “By the way” Roman Reigns is not a legend, he is just a prick who needs to be taught a lesson. Tyler Reks then leaves the ring and Smackdown goes off the air.
Raw is up next and it starts out with Drew McIntyre coming out to the ring and he grabs a mic. Drew says that he is waiting for Paul Heyman to come out and introduce him to this supposed man who is going to humble him. Paul Heyman then comes out and he says that he is really sick of this attitude that Drew McIntyre has. Paul says that he did find someone, so Drew will be lucky enough to have a match at Summerslam, but this is going to be the last demand that Drew McIntyre gets through. Drew then tells Paul that they will see about that. Drew then tells Paul to bring this man out to the ring. Paul then tells Drew McIntyre to be careful what he wishes for. Paul then tells Drew that his Summerslam opponent will be out here in just a moment. We then wait in silence for a second before hearing the music of Brock Lesnar. Brock comes out and he comes down to the ring with Paul Heyman. Both men get in the ring with Drew McIntyre. Brock and Drew get into each other's faces and Paul says that in a last ditch effort to humble Drew, Paul is making it Drew McIntyre vs Brock Lesnar at Summerslam. Drew looks at Paul and he laughs. Brock then grabs Drew and drops him with an F 5. Up next we see Sheamus come out to the ring and grab a mic. Sheamus says that Wade was right, what Sheamus did at Battleground was cheap. Sheamus says that it was meant to be that way. Sheamus then says that payback is a bitch, and what Sheamus did at Battleground was payback for what Wade did at Money in the Bank. Sheamus says that he is glad that Wade is invoking his rematch clause at Summerslam. Sheamus then says that he wants a clean, fair, fight at Summerslam. Sheamus is then hit with a Bull Hammer by Wade Barrett. Barrett then takes the mic and he looks at Sheamus. Wade then says that Sheamus just said the smartest thing of his life. Wade says that at Summerslam it will indeed be a fight. Wade says that he is going to beat Sheamus to a pulp and take back his United States Championship. Wade Barrett then leaves the ring. Up next we see Charlotte come out to the ring and grab a mic. Charlotte says that she has answers for both Becky and Sasha about which one of them is going to be her Summerslam opponent. Charlotte said that she will tell everyone who brought up the better point last week. Charlotte says that actually both Becky and Sasha had really good points last week. Charlotte then tells everyone to rewind for a bit. Charlotte tells everyone to rewind all the way back to Wrestlemania 32, where the three fought in a Triple Threat match. Charlotte tells everyone that she won that match and beat both of them at the same time. Charlotte says that neither of them have seemed to learn their lesson. Charlotte says that Summerslam is going to have to have the same result, so therefore, she chooses to accept both challenges. Charlotte says that at Summerslam she will defend her Womens title in a Triple Threat match. Charlotte then smirks and says that she hopes that they are both happy with this. Charlotte then leaves the ring. Finally we have our main event between Randy Orton and Chris Jericho. These two legends begin to fight in this number one contenders match. It is a back and forth match between the two men, but we see Randy Orton then get an upperhand on Chris Jericho and he is able to soon nail Chris Jericho with an RKO and pin him for the win. Randy Orton has become the numer one contender for the WWE title. After the match, the lights go out and when they come back on we see Bray Wyatt attack Randy Orton. Bray Wyatt nails Randy Orton with Sister Abigail and he looks down at Randy. Bray is laughing when he is hit across the back with something. Bray is attacked by AJ Styles, who has his Money in the Bank Breifcase. AJ goes and hands in his briefcase and now has a WWE title match. AJ gets on the apron, and he nails Bray with a Phenomenal Forearm. AJ Styles then pins Bray Wyatt and becomes WWE Champion for the first time in his career. AJ holds up the Championship and Raw goes off the air.
Smackdown is up next and it starts out with Tyler Reks coming out to the ring. Tyler has a mic and he says that he did challenge Roman Reigns last week to a match at Summerslam. Tyler says that Roman Reigns needs to learn to respect. Tyler says that the lack of respect towards Sting and Rey Mysterio, two of the all time great legends, is sickening to him. Tyler Reks says that at Summerslam, he looks forward to fighting Roman Reigns, and he looks forward to ending his reign of terror. Tyler then says that Roman will learn to respect, he will learn to respect the legends of this business, he will learn to respect his fellow wrestlers, and he will learn to respect Tyler Reks. Tyler Reks then drops his mic and he leaves the ring. Next up we see Braun Strowman in a match with Alex Riley. Braun immediately starts to dominate this match and he brutally beats down Riley. Braun seems to be angry at Alex Riley and he picks him up and nails him with a Running Powerslam and pins him for the win. Braun grabs a mic and he says that was not a challenge at all. Braun says that he wants an actual man to come out and challenge him. Braun says that he is sick and tired of running all over the Smackdown locker room. Braun says that he wants a true challenge by next week. Braun Strowman then throws down his mic and he leaves the ring. Up next we see two masked men standing in the ring. These are the same two men that laid out the Usos last week. One of them says that for a long time, they have sat in the shadows. Now they have seen what the Usos have been doing recently. The Usos think they are on top of the world. The masked man says that the Usos have done almost everything in WWE, except beat them. Both men take off their maskes and they reveal themselves as Harper and Rowan. Harper continues to speak and he says that the Usos have never beaten them, and someone Harper and Rowan are the ones in the shadows. Harper then says that soon, things will change. Harper then says that the Usos must accept a match for the Tag Team titles at Summerslam with Harper and Rowan. The Usos then come out and they come to the ring. Jimmy says that they have no claim to a Tag Team title match. Jey then says that both of them have been nowhere to be seen, and they certainly will not get a Tag Team title shot. Jimmy then says that the answer is always going to be a no. The Usos then turn, but they are attacked by Harper and Rowan, who brutally beat them down. Jey is thrown out of the ring, and Harper grabs the mic. Harper says that what the Usos fail to understand is that this will happen to them every week, until they accept. Harper then hits a Discus Clothesline on Jimmy. Harper and Rowan then leave the ring. Finally we see Cody Rhodes come out with a mic. Cody Rhodes says that for fourteen years, John Cena has been a prominent part of WWE. Cody Rhodes says that John Cena once carried this company on his back for a long while. Cody says that very few people have given WWE all this attention. Cody says that at Summerslam, the Legendary full time career of John Cena comes to an end. Cody says that it will be different without John always around, but what Cody is more focused on, is that to end his full time career, John Cena wants to finally win the IC title, so he challenged Cody Rhodes to a match at Summerslam. Cody says that fighting a legend like John Cena at Summerslam would be a dream come true. Cody says that it can be a bit of a changing of the guard. Cody says that it will be perhaps the greatest IC Champion in WWE history vs perhaps the greatest US Champion in WWE history. Cody says that it will be a legendary match, and Cody accepts the challenge of course. John Cena then comes out and he comes to the ring. John tells Cody that he knows that he is trying to bring such value to the IC title. John says that by accepting this match, he is doing that title a great service. Cena extends his hand and Cody shakes it. Smackdown then goes off the air.
Raw is up next and it starts out with Wade Barrett coming out and grabbing a mic. Wade says that last week was a clear message to Sheamus. Wade says that he means business this time around, and Sheamus won’t have to worry about a roll up this time. Wade says that his goal this time is not to just beat Sheamus, it is to make Sheamus learn a lesson. A lesson that the Englishman will always be better than the Irishman. Wade says that he is going to make sure that Sheamus has yet another failure of a title run. Sheamus then comes out and he grabs a mic. Sheamus says that sometimes the third time's a charm, and that is what it will be like for Sheamus. Sheamus says that maybe his WWE Championship reign wasn’t the best, and he got screwed out of his first US title reign, but this time, it wil be a good one. Sheamus then says that he is going to kick that off at Summerslam, when he successfully defends against Wade Barrett. Sheamus then looks at Wade and he says that he almost forgot, he owes him for last week. Sheamus then hits a huge Broque Kick on Wade Barrett. Sheamus then says that he will see Wade Barrett at Summerslam. Sheamus then walks away. Up next we see Sasha Banks come out to the ring and grab a mic. Sasha says that she really can’t believe what is happening here. Sasha cannot believe that Charlotte actually wanted another Triple Threat. Sasha says that is not fair because at Wrestlemania, Sasha wasn’t even pinned and she still lost. Sasha says that Becky does not deserve to be a part of this match. Sasha says that Becky is nothing but a loser. Sasha says that Becky lost at Wrestlemania, she lost at Payback, and she couldn’t beat Sasha at Battleground. Becky then comes out to the ring and she grabs a mic. Becky asks Sasha who she thinks she is. Becky asks Sasha if it has gotten this bad, all of the narcissism. Becky tells Sasha that she deserves this match just as much as Sasha does. Becky then says that she would also prefer if Sasha wasn’t in this match, because Becky knows that Sasha can ruin it for her, but they have to now fight in this Triple Threat rematch. Sasha scowls at Becky and she tells Becky that she is sick and tired of her being around all the time. Sasha tells Becky to shut up and go away. Becky says that she will not do that. Becky says that in fact she has something that she would love to say to Sasha. Becky says that she wants a one on one rematch next week between the two of them. Sasha then asks Becky why she thinks that she would want to do that. Becky says that she knows that Sasha’s ego is far too big and she can’t stand the fact that she wasn’t able to beat Becky at Battleground. Becky then says that she wants it so she can finall shut Sasha Banks up, before she does it again at Summerslam of course. Sasha scowls again at Becky and she says that she will accept and she will see Becky Lynch next week. Becky tells Sasha that she can’t wait and she leaves the ring. We then see Drew McIntyre in the back and he is asked about his upcoming Summerslam match. Drew says that he really can’t wait for it. Drew says that he is really going to show Paul Heyman a thing or two when he beats his “unbeatable” Beast at Summerslam. Drew says that he is going to put Brock Lesnar down at Summerslam. Drew then says that he didn’t forget about last week, and he wants to make Brock pay for that. Drew is then told that Brock Lesnar will be on Raw next week. Drew says that he looks forward to it, he wants to see Brock Lesnar again, and he wants to see him before kicking his ass at Summerslam. Drew then walks away. Finally we see the new WWE Champion, AJ Styles come out to the ring. AJ says that last week was the biggest moment of his wrestling career. AJ says that he finally reached the highest level of competition in all of wrestling. AJ says that he finally won the biggest prize in the whole industry. The WWE Championship. AJ says that it was Phenomenal for him to do that, finally. AJ then says that now Summerslam is around the corner, a great event that AJ has never competed at. AJ says that he looks forward to finally having the chance. We then hear the music of Randy Orton. Orton has a mic and he makes his way down to the ring. Randy Orton says that last week he beat Chris Jericho to become number one contender for the WWE Championship. Orton says that at the time he did that, Bray Wyatt was the WWE Champion, and that is who he expected to face off against at Summerslam, but after the cowardly attack from Bray Wyatt, Bray himself was attacked by a coward named AJ Styles, who then stole the WWE Championship. Randy looks at AJ and he says that it does not matter who it is, whether it be Bray Wyatt or AJ Styles, Randy Orton is the number one contender and he is going to fight for the WWE Championship at Summerslam. AJ then says that he is more than okay with that. AJ says that Randy Orton is a dream match for him so he looks forward to it. AJ then says that perhaps Orton shouldn’t be calling AJ a coward though, because that means that he is taking AJ lightly, which is a huge mistake. AJ says that he will defend the great WWE Championship against Randy Orton at Summerslam, and he will come out victorious. AJ then walks away and Raw goes off the air.
Smackdown is up next and that starts out with Braun Strowman calling out someone to actually fight. Braun says that he wants proof that Smackdown has real men who can put up a proper fight against him. Braun waits a minute before we hear the music of Dolph Ziggler. Dolph comes out and he says that he was once at war with that old clan that Braun was part of. Dolph says that he fought every person in that clan and he beat them all. It wasn’t until after Dolph had his war with them, did they pick up Braun Strowman. Dolph says that Smackdown has men that can fight Braun. Dolph says that this is the proof for Braun. Dolph accepts Brauns Challenge and he gets in the ring with Braun. The match starts and Braun immediately starts to dominate Dolph and throw him all around the ring. Dolph tries for a desperate Superkick, but Braun catches it and he screams at Dolph before grabbing him and hitting a Running Powerslam. Braun pins Dolph for the win. Braun grabs a mic after the match and he yells and says that he actually needs a real challenge, and he demands one by next week. Braun then leaves the ring. Up next we see John Cena in a match. Cody Rhodes is sitting at commentary. John Cena is taking on Xavier Woods for the first time ever in his career. Xavier tries to take it to Cena, but Cena is too skilled for Xavier Woods and he turns the fight around on Xavier. Cena lifts Xavier up and he nails him with the AA. Cena then pins Xavier Woods for the win. Cody congratulates Cena after the match and he says that he wants this type of fight from Cena in their match at Summerslam. Cody then pats Cena on the back and he leaves the ring. Up next we see the Usos come out and they demand a legit challenge for Summerslam. Jey says that those freaks Harprer and Rowan do not deserve a match. Jimmy then says that they demand a new challenge tonight for Summerslam, and if no one comes out, then they want Teddy Long to come out and give them some proper opponents, because he actually has sense. The Usos are then attacked by Harper and Rowan again out of nowhere. Jimmy is then thrown out of the ring and Harper grabs a mic. Harper says that they want this match at Summerslam, because that will be the two year anniversary of them winning the titles for the first time. Harper then says that if the Usos are not willing to give it up, then so be it. Harper says that every week that they don’t accept Harper and Rowan's Challenge, they will be beaten down. Harper then hits a huge Discus Clothesline on Jey. Harper and Rowan leave the ring. Finally we see Roman Reigns come out and he says that he heard Tyler Reks last week. Roman says that he could have come out, but he didn’t feel like wasting his time. Roman says that Tyler Reks is not worth his time to talk to. Roman then says that he doesn’t respect Tyler Reks, and he certainly doesn’t fear that bitch. Roman says that Summerslam will mearly be a stepping stone for Roman Reigns, and nothing else. Roman says that Tyler Reks will learn his place on Smackdown, like he did on Raw. Tyler Reks comes out and he says that this is what he means by Roman Reigns needs to learn respect. Tyler tells Roman not to worry about anything, because Roman will be taught respect at Summerslam. Roman tells Tyler to get over himself. Roman says that Tyler is no match for Roman Reigns. Roman then says that he is unbeatable in this ring. Roman tells Tyler Reks to ask Sting, Rey Mysterio, or Dean Ambrose. Roman says that Tyler will be just another name to add to the list. Tyler tells Roman that he is glad to see such confidence. Tyler then says that he is however sad to say that he will be knocking it back down. Tyler says that he knows that Roman has not fought anyone like Tyler. Tyler says that he always wants to fight guys who are bigger and stronger than him, because Tyler Reks wants to challenge himself.

Hello! I'm wondering if anyone has any advice about potentially walking from Edinburgh to London. I've done some searching online and haven't found any kind of dedicated path, but it looks like you could piece it together using a mix of long distance trails. I've done some long-distance hikes in the US, and would love to attempt something similar over here!
It looks like doing the southern part of the Great North Trail, and then maybe connecting to the canal system in England could get me all the way there? And I figure I'd wild camp as much as I could, but potentially stay in hostels in areas where camping's not available. I'll have about 4 weeks off in August/September, and would love to do the whole thing in that time, but know that might be a little ambitious.
Just posting to see if anyone's done something similar, or has any advice! Thanks in advance!

Lately, some peculiar occurrences have taken place. Take, for instance, last night when my girlfriend Heather left the bathroom and insisted she saw me in the kitchen. Strangely, I have no recollection of getting up during the night, so I attributed it to sleepwalking. Surprisingly, she shared details of a full-fledged conversation we had, followed by me returning to my room after devouring a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. While it does sound like something I might do, I simply cannot recall that particular incident.
Little did I know, this was only the beginning of a series of such incidents.
Curious about that night last week, I asked Heather, "Do you remember what we were talking about?"
With a smile, Heather nudged me playfully on the shoulder and replied, "Sweetheart, you were all over the place. You mentioned how you wished you had a new job and that you were starving. Why do you ask?"
As I gazed into the distance, a heavy sensation enveloped my mind, akin to a weighted blanket draped over my thoughts. "Hmm, I just can't remember conversing with you. I never woke up."
"It's possible that you were sleepwalking. It happens to many people, dear. You know, you look quite handsome even when you sleepwalk," Heather smirked, gently clasping my hand. "That's one of the many reasons I love you." I planted a soft kiss on her forehead, "I'm going for a run. I'll be back in a little while!" I needed to meditate and frankly running was my best therapy session.
Although I attributed these incidents to sleepwalking, they still troubled me. However, there was no point in allowing stress to consume me.
A couple of weeks later, another unsettling incident unfolded, this time at my workplace—Dunesbarry, a printing company that produces everything from small pictures to large-scale posters. It happened on a Tuesday when I woke up feeling unwell, prompting me to make a decision to call in sick.
My boss, James, was known for being a rather easy going manager, and I dialed his number to inform him about my condition. "Hey James, I'm not feeling great. I woke up with stomach issues and won't be able to come in today." After a brief pause, James burst into laughter and retorted, "Hold on, Caesar. What are you talking about? I just saw you here a few minutes ago."
My heart sank into my stomach, and perspiration formed on my forehead. "What do you mean? I'm at home, James."
"Buddy, I don't know if you're trying to pull a prank on me, but I assure you, you're here. Although it's quite unexpected for you to be early, you waved at me and headed into the bathroom. Are you still in there?"
Feeling a sense of disbelief, I momentarily put my phone down after promising James I would call him back."What in the world..." My pulse raced, throbbing in various parts of my body as the unsettling realization sank in. This had to be something more than I initially thought.
The remainder of the day I was immobilized, trapped in a state of mental paralysis. I laid on the couch, anxiously awaiting Heather's return.
My mind reverberated with the same haunting thoughts, from the first time I experienced a memory lapse at home to now, encountering a similar phenomenon at my workplace. What on earth was happening to me?
Driven by a growing urgency, I hurried over to my laptop and launched into an immediate search for any instances resembling my own. "Not remembering conversations at night" I typed into Google. The initial search results yielded blog websites discussing sleepwalking, which aligned with my initial assumption. Nevertheless, I pressed on. Next, I came across some Reddit posts recounting incidents of sleep-talking without any recollection.
As I scrolled through the various links and websites, one particular post caught my attention. Doppel-gänger? I had heard that term before.
Doppelgänger: "an apparition or double of a living person" was the definition I encountered, but comprehending its implications proved challenging. As a skeptical individual, I typically dismissed notions of the paranormal and supernatural. Why, out of all people, would something like this happen to me?
I closed my laptop, taking a deep breath to steady my racing thoughts.
Finally, Heather returned home after her shift, and I dashed towards the door to greet her.
"Hi, love! I'm so glad you're home. I have something absolutely mind-boggling to tell you!" I tightly embraced her, holding her for longer than usual."Hello, my sweetheart. What happened?" Heather set down her purse, and we both settled onto the couch.
"You won't believe this, and honestly, I'm struggling to wrap my head around it. Remember how I mentioned calling out of work today? Well, when I called James, he accused me of playing a prank on him. He even mentioned that I was already at work."
Heather nervously chuckled and turned to process my words. "Wait, what?"
"He said I had already arrived at work and was in the bathroom. But I never went. I've been here at home the entire day." As I looked at Heather, I could see a hint of discomfort on her face.
"I don't understand. Maybe he was just messing with you since you called out," Heather suggested, rising to grab some water from the kitchen. Bursting into laughter, a wave of relief washed over me. "Wow, I never actually considered that. I'm sorry, I'm still preoccupied with that incident in the kitchen that night. It's been twisting my thoughts."
"You're okay, honey. How are you feeling?" Heather asked, her concern shining through.
"Much better now that you're home, I must say."
Heather was my rock, always asking the right questions and loving me in ways I had never experienced before. I couldn't fathom my life without her. Feeling slightly more at ease, I decided not to inquire further with James, choosing to let the matter rest.
It was 3:23 am when I was awakened by the sound of slow footsteps creaking past our slightly open bedroom door. We kept it ajar to listen for any unusual nighttime noises.
Rubbing my eyes and stretching my legs, I sat up in bed, my gaze fixated on the doorway. The room was enveloped in darkness, and it took a moment for my eyes to adjust. The footsteps abruptly ceased as I continued to stare at the sliver of the doorway crack.
Resolute in my determination not to jump to the worst conclusions, I dismissed the idea of an intruder breaking into our home. Surely, I would have heard some sign of forced entry. Grasping the nearest object within reach, our vintage lamp, I mustered the courage to approach the door, striving to remain as silent as possible. With a trembling hand, fueled by fear of the unknown, I reached out for the doorknob.
Taking a moment to steady my pounding heart, prepared to confront anybody, even if it were against God Himself, I cautiously opened the door. There was nothing outside. I checked in both directions, even stepping into the hallway with a stance ready for battle. Utter silence enveloped the space. Releasing a sigh of relief, I turned around, intending to return to the bedroom.
Then, a solitary footstep echoed in my ears.
I halted, gripping the lamp so tightly that its exterior threatened to shatter.
Turning slowly toward the source of the sound, my eyes caught up to the movement, leaving me no choice but to confront whatever lurked within my house.A figure emerged from behind the kitchen island, hands tightly gripping the countertop, barely visible in the dim light. Their eyes locked onto mine, wide open as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
I noticed a striking resemblance between us – the same haircut and a mole on the top left of our heads. Yet, I couldn't spare a moment to ponder our shared appearance. There was an intruder in my house.
Carefully edging backward, I needed to make my way back to the bedroom to alert Heather and call the police.
"Heather! There's someone in the house! Call the police right now!" I shouted, keeping my gaze fixed on the intruder, even though I wished I didn't have to. The intruder remained motionless, almost frozen in place. As I shouted for Heather to call the police, I could hear teeth chattering as if it were beside my ear. Slowly, he moved from the kitchen island, his hands preceding his head, his unwavering stare fixed upon me.
With my heart pounding out of my chest, fueled by adrenaline, I took advantage of the rush surging through my veins and sprinted toward the kitchen to investigate. I hadn't seen him move from the island to anywhere else, so the realization that he had vanished sent shivers down my spine.
"What the fuck," I uttered, completely shaken to my core.
Moments later, the police arrived, responding to the report of an intruder. Heather peered out from the bedroom to assess the situation.
"Honey, are you okay?" Heather whispered loudly. I found myself sitting on the floor, stunned and deflated. I couldn't wrap my mind around what had just occurred. It made no sense. As logical as I considered myself to be, this defied all reason.
Heather tenderly held the top of my head, offering comfort as we awaited the arrival of the police.I needed to compose myself before opening the door for them."Hi, um, I don't know how to explain this," I said to the officer, my voice tinged with confusion, still trembling from the encounter. "Hello, I am Officer Santana. There was a call reporting an intruder. Are you okay, sir?"
I let Officer Santana and her partner inside and guided them to a seat. "This is going to sound strange, I understand that, but there was an intruder right over there," I pointed toward the kitchen island. "He was behind it, and then he wasn't. He simply vanished." Santana looked up at me, her eyebrows raised as she tried to comprehend the situation.
"What are you saying? He disappeared? Did you see him run anywhere?" Santana's partner asked, jotting down notes in their Paperkraft notepad. "Well, I saw him duck behind the island, and then he was gone. I know it sounds crazy, and I realize that."
"Okay, we're going to thoroughly check the house and ensure it's safe. In the meantime, please wait outside until we're done," Santana instructed, as both officers unclamped their pistols from their holsters. I felt a semblance of safety in their presence.
It was a chilly autumn day, with the scent of smoke wafting through the air, likely from my neighbors' fireplace. Jill and her husband, Dane, were wonderful neighbors who kept to themselves. Occasionally, they would surprise us with extra food, acting like the pseudo-parents of the neighborhood. Sometimes, I would take it upon myself to fix minor things around their house, like the black fence in the backyard. It always seemed to have a mysterious hole, despite their lack of pets or nearby animals.
Jill and Dane noticed the police presence and joined us outside, arms crossed in concern. "What's going on, guys?" Dane inquired. "There was someone in our house, but they disappeared. Maybe it was some kind of prank or squatter. I don't know," I replied, offering an explanation simply to have one, even though I struggled to believe it myself.
"Did you enjoy the apple pie I made the other day, Caesar? You devoured some of it when you came by to fix the fence," Jill chimed in, her culinary skills well-known. However, I hadn't tasted her cooking in months. "When did I fix the fence?" I asked, my tone dropping with confusion.
Jill's smile widened, as if assuming I understood what she was referring to. "What do you mean? You came by two days ago. You mentioned noticing the hole again and wanted to fix it for us."
"Oh, right! Sorry, my mind has been foggy lately. I loved the pie, it was delicious. You're such an amazing cook!" I responded, though I had no recollection of any fence-fixing visit. I gave her a reassuring answer to alleviate any concerns she might have.
Urgently, I pulled Heather aside, gripping her arm. "Heather, I never went to their house or fixed their fence. I have no idea what's happening, and I promise I'm not going crazy.""I believe you, but I'm starting to feel a little scared. These incidents where you've supposedly been to places and don't remember are unnerving," Heather confessed, her face etched with genuine worry.
The officers emerged from the house, re-holstering their pistols. "Your house is clear. Whatever was here is no longer present. We'll have patrols keep an eye on your property for the next few days. Other than that, you should be able to go back to bed," one of the officers assured us.
"Thank you, officers. We'll call again if anything happens inside," I expressed our gratitude. Heather and I held each other tightly as we made our way back to the house. "Let's try to get some rest," Heather suggested. However, that night, sleep eluded me as the image of that man's eyes lingered in my mind. Why did he resemble me?
It had been quite some time since I last encountered any strange incidents or intruders in my house. I was beginning to feel optimistic about the whole situation. Life had returned to normal, and my relationship with Heather was flourishing.
"You know, Caesar, I eventually want to have a baby. Can you help me with that?" Heather expressed her desire, and I chuckled nervously, embracing her from behind. "Of course, baby. Let's plan it out and see where life takes us." After bidding Heather farewell as she left for work, I settled on the couch.
The thought of becoming a father lingered in my mind, though it seemed like a daunting and incredible prospect.
Little did I know that two hours later, that day would alter the course of my life forever.
"Caesar," a voice pierced through my skull like a bullet, evoking a fear I had never experienced before. Shock washed over me, causing a lump to form in my throat. I recognized the voice, but the sheer terror prevented me from turning around.
"Caesar," the voice repeated, pushing my body into fight or flight mode. Summoning my courage, I slowly turned around.
It was me. The person standing before me was an identical version of myself. "What the fuck!?" I uttered, bewildered.
He began to approach me with slow, deliberate steps. His unblinking eyes and a smirking mouth hinted at some sinister intent. He halted just a foot's length away from me. "What are you!?" I screamed, attempting to push him away.
As he lunged towards my face, I sidestepped and prepared to strike him with a punch from my right hand. However, he swiftly evaded the blow and made another aggressive move towards me. He covered my mouth and nose, struggling to breathe, I swung my fists blindly in his direction before losing consciousness.
When I regained consciousness, I found myself in a shed approximately a mile away. Disoriented and terrified, I sat up, only to discover that the floor was strewn with animal flesh and blood. The overwhelming stench threatened to obliterate my senses.
I had to find a way back to my house, no matter what. I frantically searched the pockets of my jeans, hoping to find something that could aid me. To my dismay, everything was missing, including the cherished watch that once belonged to my late father.
Summoning my determination, I rose to my feet and forcefully slammed open the decaying wooden door. The task proved effortless, as the door had already begun to rot. As I surveyed my surroundings, I realized I was engulfed by a dense forest, devoid of any visible structures. I vaguely recalled that my house was situated along the northern line, which offered a glimmer of hope.
Although I had never been much of an outdoorsy person while growing up, my father had imparted a few tricks during our camping trips. I recollected his guidance on locating the North Star by first identifying the Big Dipper. I patiently waited for the night sky to emerge, conserving my energy for the impending journey. As the sun barely kissed the horizon, I discerned a cluster of houses, including mine, in the distance.
Mixed emotions welled up within me as I approached my home. Peering through the backyard windows, my heart sank to the floor. There I saw myself, holding Heather in a tight embrace, sharing kisses, laughter, and affection.
Desperate to escape this surreal nightmare, I knocked on the window, hoping to break free from that imposter. Heather's piercing scream echoed through the air as he rushed toward the window, bellowing at me to leave and threatening to involve the police once again. As I began to retreat from the backyard, he smirked, a sinister expression that mirrored my own.
This doppelgänger had assumed my identity in every way, rendering it impossible to distinguish between us. If I dared to approach the house or confront Heather, the consequences would be dire. I had made one attempt before, only to be manipulated into believing that I was a deranged relative harassing them. Heather, unaware of my familial connections due to my reticence about them, fell for his ruse.
Years passed, and I found myself confined to observing them from the safety of the woods. Heather's happiness blossomed as she became pregnant. Meanwhile, I remained trapped in this inexplicable nightmare, grappling with the cruel injustice that had stolen my life away.
As the years dragged on, my existence continued to be overshadowed by the twisted imposter who had stolen my life. I watched from the darkness of the woods as Heather's pregnancy progressed, the anticipation building within her. It was a bitter torment to witness her joy, knowing that I was the rightful father of that child.
​

One of each holding respectively a sword, a spear, and a claymore for those of you looking for weapon respawns after each blood moon!! 🤩🥳 The coordinates are -0582 -1495 -0445 just a little northeast of Nogukoyk Lightroot and the Great Plateau North Chasm!

I made myself ready to sleep. I checked if my rabbit was okey and went to bed. Today was a very tiring day. So I immediately fell asleep. But only two hours later I woke up again. There was this noise. It was weird. It sounded like some sort of clicking. I thought it was my father who was working on his computer or some mice that were running on the roof again so I ignored it and went back to sleep. That night I had a weird dream. I was in my house but there was dust everywhere. And the house, it was so dark. I am not scared of the dark but the absence of light that was in my dream was truly terrifying. It felt like there was a pressure in the air and that I never would be happy again. I was slowly walking around the house full with scratches over my body. And there I saw something. In the corner. The corner was completely dark but I saw red eyes coming out of it. The last thing I remember is a terrible sound. It was a mixture of a low screech and that clicking sound again.
I woke up with a huge scratch on my cheek. I wasn't that surprised of it because it wasn't the first time that I scratched myself in my sleep. I decided to start my day.
After I ate my breakfast and took a shower I checked on my rabbit. There was a little dried up blood on his paw. I thought he probably had a small cut on his paw so I decided to wash his paw. After cleaning him up I on the rocking chair in the livingroom and scrolled on my phone a bit.
My father came downstairs and asked about the clicking in the night. I told him that I thought that it was him and he looked at me with a confused face. It can't be someone else considering I don't have siblings nor a mother. But we both concluded that it was indeed the mice on the roof again.
Later that day my father went to work for the weekend and I decided to wash the dishes until I heard that weird clicking again. It stopped soon and I went on with my day. In the evening it started again. It started annoying me so I went upstairs to see if I could do something about it. But it didn't come from the roof. So I followed the sound and ended up in my room. I looked around but I was distracted. My rabbit wasn't in his cage. I turned around looking for him. But when I looked at the doorway I saw him. I let out a sight. I calmed down until the clicking started again. But now it was all twisted and slowed down. My heart skipped a beat when I realized that it came from my rabbit. I didn't know what was going on so I just stood there. This sounds weird and stupid but he scared me. A crippling fear came over me when he started to turn into something terrible. His legs became unbelievable long. The body stretched out in an unnatural proportion. And than his mouth. It opened until it was a meter long wide with incredible long and sharp teeth. And there it was again. The sound from my dream. But this time it was so loud that I had to cover my ears, trying to protect my ears. I was trapped in the room. It stood between me and the door ans before I could think he sprinted towards me. I quickly looked around and found a lamp. I took it and smashed it against his head but it did nothing. I jumped out of the window and landed on my ankle. The pain was immense because I was on the third floor. but I didn't waste time and started running again.
I wanted to run towards my friend's house but if I do that I'd bring her in danger as well. So I ran trough the streets but he blocked the way the only other way was towards the woods. So I ran there and climbed in a tree. I don't know where to go nor where it is. So that's why I share this. Not because I want help. This is just a warning. You can't trust anyone, no human, no pet. If there is no update. I am probably dead...or worse.

So I guess I'll post my problem here, maybe I can get some help finding a solution or I'll just get roasted. I live in Canada, and while my life should have started with my graduation of highschool and college, I'm stuck living with my mom still, graphic design not a fruitful endeavor at all. Any advice my parents can give is both outdated and unhelpful. My mom suggests pick up multiple jobs, but every job offer I get is for full-time work, never part time.
My Dad (not present often due to separation with my mom) is a little more in-tune with how things are right now but every time I go to him it is the same, re-enlist to the army shpeel. To his credit he can't help that, his job is a recruiting officer.
I was about to go into college once more for electrician so I can finally land a job that isn't paying scraps, but now my mom has a divorce with her husband and we're no longer staying in the local area, which was bad to begin with.
I have lots of ideas but no way to make use of them, all businesses and companies but no real feasible means to do anything but work dead-end jobs.
It's not like I've been depressed or anything, I take care of myself, I read books, pick-up self help guides, workout at home and cook whatever meals I can. Yet I am still finding myself stuck. Jobs are posted but hardly ever respond to my applications, I'm always seeking better opportunities but nobody seems to reply.
Not gonna lie it's tiring, the government thinks I should kill myself in some medically assisted death since life sucks (fuck that, I'm not a coward) and my brother is barely making it also, and he's in the military with a RCMP wife. I honestly wanna pack up and leave the country, maybe overseas a little to find somewhere I can start my life with more success.
I fear that I may have subconsciously ended up in a codependent relationship with my Mom, especially since we severely dislike each other. I want to leave and be free of this but my finances are fucked and I can't seem to earn anywhere near independent survivability for Canadians. I even consulted an AI, because of this situation and well unfortunately the AI is limited to what it was trained on.
I've been exploring passive income for a few months now, I wanna invest into earning monthly passives and increase that over time, if there's anything I can learn from you guys, I'm feeling stuck and frustrated all around. Maybe from some of you that's been at rock bottom and got out?

Mikey rolled his shoulder as he stepped out of the building. Ooh! That's gonna hurt in the morning! He thought, as he felt a twinge in his upper arm. He had had a good day and felt like pushing a little harder at the gym, and now he was paying the price of his hubris. It was a good pain though, it meant he had pushed his limits and in a few days he would be stronger for it, that's why you went to the gym after all. Turning west, he started to jog home. This was both the best and worst part of his workout. Best because it was the end, one last stretch and he was home. Worst because it would be sooooo easy to just slow down. Alex was exhausted from the workout, and try as he might, he couldn't seem to convince his legs that they did in fact want a cool down after a workout, but this wasn't a democracy, so screw their opinions.
.....
Meanwhile
Culleo backpedaled as a large panther snapped at him, a hairs breadth out of harms way. A panicked sweep of his rapier knicked the cat's face and kept it at bay, and he used the opening to risk a bit of magic. "Ignum Faciunt!" He tried to roar, but it came out more as a wheeze. Flames burst forth from his hand, but were a flicker compared to what he had done before. It was a massive stroke of luck that the Panther had chosen that moment to renew its attack, lunging with its gaping maw, and literally ate the flames. It was the cat's turn to step back and wheeze, and Culleo's to press the attack, but he could hardly move. Cursed abyss, I'm almost done he went into this battle with a desperate plan, by holding off on summoning his familiar the battle would start at a disadvantage, but bringing it out later would give an advantage in both numbers and a fresh ally. This would have been the perfect opportunity, he just needed to finish off the enemy familiar and complete the summoning. That would turn the battle from a 3v4 to a 4v3. As his legs gave out from under him however, he knew he had failed. This was his idea, he had pushed his team to take the risk, and how here he was, struggling to stay on his knees when the others needed him.
Suddenly the beast jerked, and Culleo saw a knife in its chest that hadn't been there before. Kellista, busy as she was, gave Culleo a reminder that being reliable was a two way street. Sure, the thrown knife was probably meant to kill the panther rather than give him a lesson in the power of friendship, but he still appreciated the gesture.
As the cat disappeared, sent back to wherever it was summoned from, Culleo took mental stock of the situation. He was bleeding, exhausted and low on mana, but he still had enough for his summoning spell. Kellista was covered in wounds from the one on one she was having against Kalivine, who in turn was hardly winded after summoning the Panther and was taking his time as he toyed with Kellista, who wasn't going to be standing much longer either.
Turri's battle was the only one seeming to go in their favour. His fast reflexes and powerful strikes combined with a fighting style that flipped between offense and defense had let him keep the two Lycs busy. Culleo actually considered being mad at him for just a moment. He knew the guy for years! Turri was a goof, and a lazy one at that! Oh but now he's just a mixed martial artist and a metalburner!? How long has he been able to do that!? When Turri had joined their side Culleo thought he would be the weak link, but it was only because of him pulling double duty that Culleo's plan even had a chance of working.
Even with that advantage, Culleo was becoming less and less sure that it would work. The energy needed to summon his own monster would definitely put him out of the fight, and Kalivine wasn't nearly as tired as he had hoped, and the two Lyc, while definitely hurting, weren't out of the fight. Still, this was the plan, and Culleo couldn't think of anything else. That uphill battle had to count for something, and it was up to him to make sure it did.
'Exire Amicum Eligo. Just focus on those three words' Culleo kept repeating his mental mantra as he began one last casting. "Exi-" He coughed, the effort already unbearable. "Exire..." He took a slow, deep breath. Kellista was dropped to a knee as she attempted to parry a crushing blow. "Amicum" Turri overextended, and took a bloody gash on his arm. Culleo just kept pushing. Exire Amicum Eligo. One last word. Just get it out. Culleo opened his mouth. Kellista rolled away from another swing that would have broken bones. "E...el..." His mouth made the correct movements, but no sound came out. His body just had no more to give. No. One... Last... Step...! Pulling on what little mental strength would still come, he forced the spell out!
But only a gasp came. He was done, no matter how mad he was about it, there was simply no more strength in his limbs. All that for- wait! The spell... had somehow worked...? Culleo felt the last vestiges of mana leave his body and saw the matrix form. He had done it! Help was on the way!
.....
Only a few minutes later, Mike had gotten his second wind and was hitting his stride. The wind was at his back, cloud cover kept the sun at bay and his headphones were jamming. This was a good day. Kinda wish I hit my timer, I could hit a record! As the beat dropped, Mike put on another burst of speed and went all out. His blood was really pumping now, but he knew that he could easily tire out before he made it home. That's the thing about long distance running, speed is almost irrelevant, you have to keep pace and focus on a steady rhythm so you don't wear yourself out. But today? No. Mike was pushing limits. he could do a hard run all the way home, he just needed to prove it. His usual path wouldn't allow that however, it would only take one red light at a street crossing and he would lose all his steam, and he would pass at least a couple, so he took an early left and cut through the forest in the middle of town.
Man, Micheal was in the Zone! Running flat out, perfect weather, great music and he was going off road! Today was the-Ow! What the heck!? Michael's mood was immediately soured as he tripped over something. Mike stopped his run and looked around, but his path was clear? Wait, there was a rock in the middle of it! No wait, it's gone again... Michael waved a hand in front of his face and was immediately concerned with the fact that he couldn't see it. "Oh no. Am I seeing blind spots!?" He was saved from further consideration as the rest of his vision lost focus and he couldn't see anything, but definitely wasn't blind? It was hard to describe, but he didn't need to, because his sight suddenly returned. Mikey wasn't sure that was a blessing though, because he found himself staring down an honest to god dragon.
Yeah that good mood was well and truly gone.
.....
Kalivine turned his attention to the familiar Culleo just summoned, forgetting Kellista, who was grateful for the respite, and took up a defensive stance. What was that? The bipedal creature was small, but not as much as the smaller races, and didn't seem to have any hide, it's pale skin was exposed to the elements. It had no scales and was completely featherless. Fur? Sure, but only on the top of its head. Was it some naked, juvenile Lyc? No, it didn't have a snout. Kalivine snarled and widened his stance. What was this thing? It made eye contact with him as soon as it was summoned but otherwise was as still as death. As he stared at it an uneasy feeling grew in the pit of his stomach. It just wouldn't move. Kal would have thought it a statue of it hadn't made eye contact. Was the thing waiting for his attack? He had never encountered one of these things and knew better than to underestimate a new opponent, so he had no intention of giving it an opening.
The battle came to an uneasy ceasefire, as everyone looked at Culleo's familiar. It still didn't move, but it's eyes scanned each one of them. Lirren, the older of the two Lycs broke the silence. "What is that?" The familiar instantly zeroed in on him, its head moving like lightning, causing Lirren to take a defensive stance. Kalivine shifted his focus to Culleo, who had collapsed from exhaustion and was only now starting to pick himself up. "Well?" Kal asked. "Whh... Wheeze... Wha... I-..." The kobold struggled to speak. "dunno... Thought... It'd be..." He gulped and took a moment to regain his breath. "My salamander." He coughed out. The summoned creature had turned its attention to Culleo by now, turning it's back on Kalivine, the Lycs and Turri. " Culleo looked up to the being and issued a command. "Attack."
Everyone tensed, readying themselves for the battle, but the creature didn't move. That was bad.
When summoning familiars, there are two possibilities; first is summoning a specific creature you have a contract with. You form a bond, make agreements and have an ally you know and can rely on. The second summons a random creature that meets a specific criteria. The spell seeks a being of sufficient power, a willingness to act and a lack of aggression to the summoner, and 'offers' the chance to be summoned. Should the creature consent it would be summoned and given the mana in the spell for its trouble. In exchange it would be bound to the will of the summoner and would follow their command for the duration of the spell.
The fact that this creature hadn't done as instructed meant that for whatever reason, it was deemed safe by the spell and allowed itself to be summoned, but resisted the geas. Only something powerful could do that, and only something devious would do that.
.....
Michael was frozen in place. That was a dragon. A freaking DRAGON was snarling at him close enough he felt its breath on his face! Mike didn't move a muscle as the thing sized him up. A deep growl emanated from the living legend as it slowly stepped back. Ooooookaaaaaay, it hasn't killed me yet, I suppose that's good? Even his internal monologue had a shaky voice. Mike slowly looked around and Oh great, a couple of werewolves were staring him down like their next meal, along with a giant hawk with wicked looking talons. Mike never would have thought that being teleported would be a distant second in terms of importance, but there were actually bigger things on his mind. he found himself in a field surrounded by buildings, none of which he even recognized the style of, and not the thickets he was running through a minute ago. "Tahw si taht." Michael nearly jumped out of his skin when one of the werewolves spoke! The thing looked just about ready to rip him apart, so just about all of his focus was going towards not giving it a reason. The dragon clearly responded, though its voice was so low he couldn't make out what it said. Not that he needed to, they were clearly making quips about their latest meal, probably something about how good fear tastes. Suddenly a third, weaker voice came from behind. 'Aww no am I *surrounded!? '* Mike spun around to see... A pair of kobolds? Both were bloodied and on their knees. Wait, just what situation had he managed to insert himself in? As his eyes landed on the one that was, well, trying to speak, he felt a need to help the small creature. He didn't move though, there was still a literal DRAGON breathing down his neck! Had he mentioned that part? The dragon? Because there was one right there!
Something perceptibly changed in the kobolds tone as it said one last word. "kcatta!" It muttered, and everything- everyone? Sure, everyone. Everyone tensed, even Mike felt the need to fight, but nobody actually moved. After yet another staredown, Michael felt like he should make sure nobody was actually about to eat him.
Slowly, he unshouldered his gym bag and set it down. Raising both hands to show he slowly started speaking. "Uhh, hi. What exactly is- gahh!" The chatty kobold made a sweeping motion with its hand and suddenly Michael's vision was messed up again. Good god that was unpleasant! A pins and needles feeling filled in the blind spots in his eyes, but somehow he also didn't feel anything? Either way it sucked! With vision again clear, Mikey saw that he was back in the forest, and so promptly fell on his arse as he rubbed at his eyes.
What just happened!? 'Oh I'll tell you what happened! I was blinded, magically teleported onto a DRAGONS dinner plate, threatened by a werewolf, blinded again and sent back because screw you!' Mike mentally screamed for no one to hear. The worst part was that there was nobody else! That just happened and he had no proof about it so hey! Here's a secret I'll have to take to my grave because if I don't I will be labeled a madman! Wonderful!
After sitting and stewing for a few seconds, Mikey took a breath, calmed down, and took a look at his situation. 'this started with me jogging. I took a path in the woods, tripped on a rock and saw a dragon... DID that happen?' the possibility that he just bumped his head suddenly came to mind. He started to feel around his head and skull, but there was no bleeding, no bruise, nothing. He was fine. Did he catch himself on a hallucinogenic plant? He did have a small scrape on his leg that had caught on a twig. There was really no way he could tell. Yeah it was unlikely that a scrape made him see that, but so was actually seeing it. Whatever. Mike reached for his bag and, oh no he dropped it in front of the dragon! He briefly entertained the idea that he had forgotten it at the gym, but he still felt the change in pressure on his shoulder, and looking at it he could still see the imprint on his skin. He had brought his bag but it wasn't here now, and looking at the ground there weren't anybody else's prints, so nobody could have looted his body. That confirmed it, Michael had officially been to dragon land.
Luckily Michael wasn't too attached to the bag. The thing was old and he was planning on replacing it anyway. All that was in it was a change of clothes, the gym pass which could be replaced, -"no, wait! my knife!" Dang it! That thing wasn't cheap! It was a high end omni tool that he took everywhere with him, it cost hundreds of dollars! He checked his pockets, "wallet, phone... That's just great." He sighed to himself. It wasn't actually that much of a loss, he rarely used the knife, it was more of an impulse buy. Something cool he didn't need, and he still had perfectly functional older knives at home. Dejectedly, he reached into his pocket again before realizing... No!... He checked his other pockets, already knowing they were empty but this just couldn't be! The bag of chocolates was in there too! Overcome with grief, Michael slowly sank to his knees and pounded the earth with his fists. "THERE IS NO GOD!"

​
Hey there nerds and weirdos, here's my Beth May is a superhero, dungeons and daddies is the best, and hooooo boy did i realize i have a lot of baggage i need to deal with, appreciation post. Two weeks prior to thanksgiving 2022, an old high school friend of mine jumped into a rented ford MachE mustang, pointed it south and began the long trip to a cabin on Mount Hood, Oregon for a DnD weekend. We were both excited to continue our campaign we started earlier in the year. I’d get to reprise the roll of Snu Snu, half orc Barbarian, who is a dumb but smashy chap. I like my Dnd Characters to have a delusion, like the orc barbarian that was convinced he was a “blood wizard”, or the halfling rogue who was trying to convince everyone he was a brave warrior when in fact he was a coward. It’s fun playing flawed characters in Dnd, i think it sorta breaks the mold of playing heroes on an important quest. I like flawed characters in film, tv, literature, probably because I am a flawed character. Person. I’m a flawed person. I’m real, despite sometimes not wanting to be so some of the time. We started our journey in Seattle Washington, our GPS said it would be a four hour trip at two hundred and fifteen miles, the mache e was advertised to have a range of 110 miles…. I immediately realized I had made a critically failed my intelligence roll. 215 miles was greater than 110 miles. After two hours of bumper to bumper traffic, I needed to charge the car to get to our destination and despite my undeserved confidence, charging an electric car is more difficult and slower than I had expected. You have to find a fast charger, the right fast charger, and download the app associated with it, fill out a bunch of personal info, then start the charging process, which I remind you was referred to as “fast” but in fact takes over an hour. I’d fucked up. Our friends were already at the cabin we had rented, they had their character sheets in one hand, beers in the other and they were just waiting for us. I thought i’d already ruined the trip and we hadn’t made it out of the state. I asked my friend what he’d want to listen to while we sat and waited for the car to gain enough range to make it to our cabin on the edge of the forgotten realms. Ok, i didn’t say that, that was me trying to sound impressive and like i’m a good writer. You get it, or at least i hope you get it. My friend knew that i love podcasts, so he suggested we listen to a DND themed podcast to get in the mood, i asked which one, and he suggested Dungeons and Daddies. He said it was really funny, and he thought i’d like it. So, i found it in my podcatcher, went to season one episode one and started listening. We listened for the entire ride to the cabin, and then back again. I immediately loved the show. There’s something about podcasts, I'm not sure exactly what it is, but to me it feels like I really get to know the hosts/characters on the show. I think podcasts create a false sense of intimacy between the listener and the hosts. I think it’s because I mainly listen to podcasts alone and and it feels like the hosts/characters are talking to me. Or that I'm a fly on the wall of a really fun place, and I get to quietly observe these hilarious people. Is it because I listen in headphones or in my car? Maybe. Anyway, I know I get a false sense of intimacy, but sometimes I like to pretend it isn’t, or maybe I forget that it isn’t. I’m not sure, but these people don’t know me, and I don't know them, not really. So, after our weekend of DND, we drove back to Seattle, and by the time I was back at my house, I was ten episodes into Dungeons and Daddies. Over the last three weeks It had become my new audio obsession. I was hooked and I listened to it in the gym, on dog walks, while I cooked for my family, while I drove, every moment of silence I had was filled with the dads in the forgotten realm. I LOVE this show like I imagine many of you do because it’s funny, smart and dumb at the same time, it has great improvisation, an interesting story, fun characters who are out of place, and is honestly very touching and more emotionally impactful than I'd ever have imagined. As I got further down the season one rabbit hole, I began finding myself gravitating to Ron Stampler as my favorite daddy storyline. Beth’s performance is just fantastic, and even before episode 61,, where Ron has to give his dog away, Ron’s story and Beth’s performance was bringing me to tears.
I’m a dad, I have a son who is eight. In my life, there are only two Dads in my immediate family, see my wife’s father passed away when she was eight, there’s me and my dad. Well.. oh boy. My dad is kinda a nightmare. Not like Willy is a nightmare, my Dad is more like a crumpled and faded poster of a black and white monster movie, it’s sometimes more sad than scary. My dad was gone a lot when I was a kid. He was on business trips for pretty much eighty percent of my childhood. At one point he was American airlines third most flown person in the world, no joke. He’d fly to Germany on Monday, Japan on Wednesday, and then back to Oregon on friday. The good thing was we were able to fly back to my parents home country in the summer and at christmas, and the whole family usually flew for free because of his frequent flier miles. Those trips were GREAT times, I’d see my cool cousins, we’d eat awesome candy, visit castles, see the sleeping giants and all other manner of family fun. But, in normal life, I'd see him Friday night where he’d crash out, then when he woke up on Saturday he’d be grumpy, groggy and easy to anger. Those were the really good times I remember with my Dad when I was growing up, but I also remember him being angry, depressed, mean and sometimes he’d hurt me. I’m not saying that he hit me or my brother or mom on a regular occasion, that he was a drunk or anything, but there were times where he’d take things too far and I'd get hurt. For example, i must have been ten or eleven when my Dad, Brother and I went to a christian rock festival.We had to kill some time in the parking lot before the doors opened to rock n roll jesus. So my dad had the idea to teach us the spoons game. It’s like the game where you put your hands out palm up, and the other player places their hands on your hands palm down. You try to slap the other player’s hands while they try to evade your slaps. Got it? There’s gotta be a name for that game, slappies or something…
Well, for some reason we had some cutlery in the back of the car, maybe we had a picnic before the show, i don’t remember why, but we had shiny metal spoons for some reason. He taught us “the spoon game” by instructing me to make fists, and put them out in front of myself. He held spoons, one in each hand, and placed the bottom of the spoon on the top of my knuckles. My goal was to move my hands out of the way of the spoons as he tried to hit my knuckles with them. We played for what seemed like 15 minutes and he hit me every-time and with each successful hit he grew happier, and laughed harder. At first it stung, then it ached, then it was like this bubbling cauldron of pain and frustration was exploding inside me. When I could hardly hold my hands still because I was so angry, hurt and embarrassed, I burst into tears when my hands were red and beginning to bruise. I ran away from him, I just took off up the improvised road in the parking lot. He came after me, apologized to me and gave me a hug. We never played that game again. That’s just the kind of guy he was, and as I got older I realized some of the myriad of reasons he was that way. Firstly, he was an orphan, he and his brother were dropped off at an orphanage when he was three and his brother was five. I can only assume catholic orphanages in the 1950’s were not a great place to have some of your first memories. Although he’s never talked about it to me, I’m sure they’ve affected him. About a year later he and his brother were adopted by my grandparents, who in their 40’s decided to adopt two brothers aged four and six. I adored my grandparents, they were amazing people. They were blue-collar folks, my grandfather was a coal miner, with amazing stories and two sheds full of treasures which my grandmother called junk my brother and I got to paw through. Sure, he picked it up off the side of the road, but they were treasures, not junk in my or my brothers eyes. My grandfather walked from Wales to Scotland with his brother when he was nine years old to get work in the coal mines of Scotland. His sister, she was a boat captain and smuggler during the Spanish civil war who ran guns, food and medical supplies to the anti fascists. My Grandmother learned sign language so she could communicate and help THE deaf family in the village when the mother of that family fell gravely ill. But, it was the 1950’s and 1960’s so no matter how great their lives stories were, hitting kids was super normal, or at least that’s what my father and mother experienced. I’m sure he had a lot of trauma he never dealt with when he became a father in his late twenties. When we were kids, he was the sole breadwinner, his job was probably really taxing and took a lot out of him, he was away from his family a lot, and you know, traveling for work and living in hotels sucks. That’s not to excuse his behavior, I just try to, you know, put him in context of the stress he was under that I was too young to know about. It’s easier for me to believe that he’s not inherently bad, but shaped by his environment, it’s just easier for me that way. Judge away. It’s complicated. When I was twelve he lost his job, his brother committed suicide, and his funeral he found out he had 4 half sisters in Scotland who his brother had known about, and not told him about for almost a decade. It was a bad year with a silver lining. I watched him retreat into depression, longing, and joy of finding his new sisters. When i got out of college, he had his fourth back surgery. He had ruptured another disc in his lower back, and required another Discectomy . However, during the healing process he got an infection, one that raised his fever to a dangerous level that resulted in brain damage. From that point on, he wasn’t mean. He wasn’t cruel. He was confused, stubborn, repetitive, annoying and a shadow of his former intellectual self. So, I pity my father. Over this thanksgiving he decided to drive us back to my house from our extended families thanksgiving celebration. He drove into oncoming traffic because we had told him to take the next left, which he interpreted as take a left right now. No one was hurt. My son was in the car and was very scared.
And all I could think about was Ron Stampler. Listening to the end of season one gave me a lot of feelings. Listening to how Willy treated Ron wasn’t like my life with my father, not beat for beat, but a lot of the emotional beats seemed similar. Suddenly my father being absent for most of my early childhood was similar to the emotional abandonment Willy treated Ron. I saw how Willy was dismissive and cruel to Ron, and it brought back a bunch of memories I hadn’t contextualized. The spoons game for example, I had just blocked that off, not thought about it for decades, and when Willy was being so cruel to Ron, it just reminded me of that afternoon in a parking lot outside of a Jesus festival. So, my dad never made me give my dog away, but he did lose my dog once. Like, his story is that he took him to the groomer and the dog just bolted and we never saw Mocha again. Holy shit. I… I just remembered that. I want to break the cycle. I don’t want to pass on the bullshit my Dad did to me, I don’t want my the way I feel less than, incomplete, wrong and not god damn good enough onto my sweet boy. He doesn’t deserve any of that, I mean no kid does, but I’m NOT going to do that to him. I struggle with being a father a lot. I’m always second guessing myself, always worried that i’ll slip into a casual cruelty that will forever leave deep emotional scars in my sweet son the way my dad did to me. My son is an emotional kid, like I was. My son has the biggest heart you’ll ever see in a child his age. He loves everyone he meets, treats them as dear friends, and is always the first to lend a hand, a shoulder to cry on, a hug, or the shirt off his back. For christ's sake, this halloween he gave a bunch of his candy to his friends brother on the night of halloween. The younger brother was too tired to do the second round of trick or treating, it was past his bedtime. We were having a little party for halloween because we go crazy for halloween. Decorations, lights, family costume themes, full sized cady bars for trick or treaters, the whole nine yards. My son’s friends parents were attending the party, So I took my son and his friend on 2nd round of trick or treating. It was awesome, we were the last group of trick or treaters to be seen and our neighborhood was just dumping candy into the kids bags. DUMPING. When we got home, with our heavy haul the brother was upset that he didn’t go back out and get candy, so my kid just gave him all he wanted. If you’re not a parent of a young kid, let me be clear- candy is the hard drugs of childhood. Kids can be junkies for that sweet sweet candy.
That’s the kind of selfless eight year old I have, just handing over his own kiddy crack to someone he cares about without a second thought. Just today I realized he put a board game on his list to Santa, because it’s my wife’s favorite board game. He wants HER to have it, so he’s asking the all mighty and powerful Santa to bring something for him, so he can make his mom happy. What a kid. Listening to the Dungeons and Daddies made me think a lot about my dad, my baggage, what Dad I wanted to be. I have committed myself to not passing on generational trauma to my sweet, sweet boy. Listening to Beth May craft such a beautiful arch for Ron opened up a pandora's box of emotion including hope, anger, sadness and love. Ron was able to take the first steps of breaking the cycle of abuse that Willy passed on to him, and I’m ready to do the same. I hope to be as smart, brave, insightful and cool as Ron frickin’ Stampler. Thank you Daddies, thank you Anthony, Thank you Beth. I did not expect that this horny and violent podcast would be so therapeutic and eye opening to me.

Currently rocking the REI Trail 40, but after multiple trips with it, i've started to find reasons why I am not a fan of it. Don't get me wrong, it's a great bag, well built, but there are just some annoyances for me personally.
What I'm looking for is a bag that I can carry-on with, but also EDC with. Now I know that 40L is a huge bag to EDC with, but what I want to be able to do is not stick out like a sore thumb in a crowd of people, looking like i'm going hiking in a city. I do have a smaller 28L (North Face Jester) that I use for shorter trips, but more often than not I need my Trail 40. I also have a Kelty Redwing 50, but that's way too large + won't fit carryon requirements.
My gripes with the Trail 40:
- Lack of usable pockets - This one is a huge one for me. I initially thought I would love the 2 big pockets at the top of the pack, but after real world usage, I do miss having more smaller pockets or 1 large panel with lots of pockets. For example, the Jester and Redwing 50 both have a large panel with lots of pockets, helping me organize power banks, cables, tooth brush/paste, etc. Additionally, one of the big complaints with the large internal pocket was that things can fall out because the zipper is just about midway up the pocket.
- hip belt - even when I've stuffed the 40, I've never once used a belt. Would love to have a removable hipbelt.
- rear mesh pocket - I've maybe only used this once or twice? Issue I've found is that it can get caught easily and due to that fact, it has lots of little rips in it.
Any suggestions from REI? - I've got a few giftcards so would be great to spend them there.
I was looking at the REI Ruckpack 40, and it seemed to be a great alternative, minus the hip belt.

Note: I make fun of books and authors, so if you really can’t take being poked at, Spindle Manor will do the poking for you with their long, sexy legs.

Welcome back to Reviewless Review Recs of May!
A short introduction to this post: Every book is recommended, regardless of how bad it is or not. You have the brain capacity to decide if you like it or not, don’t let a stranger make a decision for you.
I speak in the second POV and describe what the book is actually about, and not the false advertising of publishing companies. I do this with shitty jokes and satire and try to convince you to pick up the book, regardless of how I feel about it.
Unlike Hoover, all books deserve a chance….Sigh, OK, fine, fine, Barbara. Even….Even...Eleventh Cycle.
ARE YOU HAPPY, NOW, B-

May:
May was filled with disappointment that a jury vote existed and the king of Finland didn’t win Eurovision. The world unanimously cried, but couldn’t be that mad that Loreen won.
Except this bitch.
I fucking wanted Alika to win so badly. I even voted and paid for the first time to give all my votes to her. Her song spoke to me and touched me that it’s never too late to go back to my work.
If Bomanz from Black Company can become a famous sorcerer at his rickety age, maybe we can too!
My favorites of Eurovision (from music videos only, I feel like every one of my favs bombed someway except Finland, France, and Norway):
Estonia

In ACTUAL book news, I’ve been waiting patiently for the library to hand me the newest Mark Lawrence book that I’ve been waiting literally 3 and a half weeks now, but I still get bumped down on Libby...for some reason. Eh.
Also since I managed to finish “She Who Rides the Storm”, I finally started “Elantris”. Was a long time coming but was saving it for a while and thought it was finally time to tackle Sanderson. I started Way of Kings with the paperback version and boy, that was a mistake for my ADHD…
And, that’s why I got a Kindle last year.
Anywho, let’s get started!

Some Updates: #

• I started comparing last month’s stats with this month, just to see how everything is progressing cause I like working with numbers!
• As requested by a user, I have made the recs longer

Guessing Game:
Want to know the real rating I gave each of these books anyway, even though the true spirit of this post is to decide for yourself anyway? I know there’s one of you fuckers in here, but here, guess the ratings and the answers are revealed at the end. You anarchist, you.

Reviewless Review Recs: \*

Seven Faceless Saints by M.K. Lobb: Read if you're in the ages 14-18, as this is possibly the most edgiest thing you might read about fictional Italy. Two teens are trying to solve a murder mystery in an alternate universe where Catholicism reigns supreme. Wait.
As an adult, this is a living personification of that one prozd video.
If you ever played Phoenix Wright, you’ll figure out the murderer in 5 seconds. If you haven’t, then maybe this would come as a surprise.
Atheism is talked about on the nose, you can't stop thinking about “Friends” because of "Roz" being mentioned every other second, and our intrepid MC goes to horny jail every other second when she's literally fighting for her life and not focusing on a gun that could disembowel her.
PTSD of war is represented by the male MC who probably once could have been the trope of the “nice guy” in school that you never had interest in, but 3 years later, because he sported 5 o’ clock shadow and has a baritone voice, he’s automatically hot.
Oh, and there are token bi, POC, and elderly people, but they’re only mentioned for a few pages, so don’t expect that much diversity. You think Archer, Maas, and Lobb could actually be friends with each other given how they write their books. A secret society. cough

Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman :
Read if Percy Jackson wasn’t edgy and dark enough for you and need something similar. Uniorinically, this is actually not satire but an actual (sorta) rec. Structure is similar to Jackson but with none of the jovial themes and tropes. Think “Lightning Thief”, only dark and edgy with grotesque monsters and, not urbanite Greek deities, but evil people from the Crusades era.
You keep thinking you’ll meet the 4th character in the Sanderson reunion tour, but there’s actually only 3 characters that are on this journey, not 4. So that Italian will actually not join us even though you liked his character a ton and curse at yourself at a potential LGBT partner dude. One day.
You will also find yourself crying, not because of how the story ended, but how the epilogue ended and boot up AO3 to fix everything.
You probably should(n’t) give this book to your aunt for reasons you know in the back of your mind but your evil AF. Maybe offer this to at Christmas and explain that it’s a book about a pilgrimage...(which isn’t totally wrong) but you’re a little bastard that is gonna get an ass whopping next Christmas, but it’ll be worth it.

Time of Contempt (Volume (???)) by Andrzej Sapkowski (Witcher)
Read if you want to see Geralt turn into a woke ally Boomer, Yennefer going to relationship counseling, and Ciri gets her wish in more ways than one. If you’re comparing Witcher books with each other, quality has gone up since Blood of Elves if that’s what you’re concerned about. We also see the Abyss Watchers making an appearance and then you think of Jerma’s Rat song in your head for inexplicable reasons.
This book is mostly about Yennefer trying to employ questionable (albeit understandable) parenting tactics on Ciri and being caught up in the after math.
As usual, book is dated towards rape, but the only saving grace is it’s “off screen” and not in your face, “Eleventh Cycle”, knock that shit off
Let’s be real, you can’t treat this series as a separate unique book to it’s own, it’s more of a long ass story that Sapkowski decided for marketing reasons to space it out in 300+ page books.
If you ask me what makes this more interesting than the previous books, it will be like asking me which regional orange looks different and bitch, I don’t got energy for that shit.

The Curse of the Spectre Queen / The Rise of the Snake Goddess by Jenny Moke
Read if you like to imagine Indiana Jones as a teenage girl, but loves books. Instead of meeting hot girls, we meet hot 1920s men, which you get to decide how good or bad that is.
The BAMF slays and you wish we had her as our Jones instead of our shy book loving MC, but hey, at least this MC has at least one quality to her that has way more personality that anything Shannon can hope to write in her stories. (Yes I know she writes her books as if they were history books, that’s not the point, Meredith)
Spectre Queen’s plot is literally about another book that will make you hug trees and will lead our characters across to Ireland. The next book is about a girdle, that you literally had to Google wtf a girdle was. You first thought it was a grill.
You wonder if the publishing agency struck a deal with the Irish and Crete travel agencies.
You also make a startling discovery that these characters are your OC from high school and middle school and your love interest OC from college mashed up into an adventure book that is oddly less erotic than anything Maas could create. You get to decide how good or bad that is.

Mordew by Alex Pheby
Read if you want to read an MC bland as hard tack inherit powers that don’t make sense till past the 70% mark. You want to read a dark YOUTH ADULT novel. Can’t find anything that’s edgy and dark enough for you? Well, here it is!
Dark mansion with Igor from the Velvet Room with an obvious villain being obvious, befriending a young boy that supposedly wants the best for him.
What can go wrong?
There are Souls-like elements weaved in, but you’re not going to see much of it. It’s mostly a vibe/fart than a plot or atmosphere.
What this book is pretty much: boy wants to help dad, there are weird monsters living in the mud, and a mansion that totally wants to abduct/help kids. Totally. Oh, and be aware, animals die in this book. A lot. An entire species is pretty much annihilated for teenage hormonal reasons that won’t make sense even if you’re still a teen. (Yes, I was one too and I also didn’t go on genocides. Thanks, Dad, you are a gem.). Oh, and someone fucked an anthropomorphized hedgehog along the way. Yeah. That happened.
If you go into this book, DO NOT READ THE BLURB! It ruins the whole plot of the entire book. If you buy/rent it, don’t you dare flip to the back side. Just open to the first chapter and start reading. You’re welcome, Matt.

She Who Rides the Storm by Catelin Sangster
Read if you like Sanderson and wished he focused more on the characters rather than the world building. You also like the ooey gooey feeling of finding a red/blue ship that you wished was the main pairing, but you’ll have to settle them being the side ship. Oh god, why, every single time?!
While it does have a romance tilt to it, this book focuses more on finding a cure for a mysterious illness and two of the characters are refugees from a religious cult that loves sunshine and that one weird horse mount from the Empire Strikes Back that you couldn’t take the auroshees seriously because of that.
Imagine that desert bar scene in A New Hope, but make it a whole book. But make it about a heist as a side plot that is barely touched on until the last 20% of the novel.
You also love doing puzzles in your spare time as you’ll be doing a lot of piecing together of the plot and world building from chapter to chapter. Unlike my problems, this one is pieceable and the last remaining piece is dangled over your head until the next book.
...Sangster is probably going to make you pay $20 for this singular piece, ain’t she?

Medium Raw by Anthony Bourdain
Read if you want to have a blunt conversation with Bourdain about food, the faults of the kitchens, what not to do if you want to be a chef, and to be transported to the deepest, darkest alley where you might be knifed, but goddamn, the best chicken heart can be found here.
If you’re a bitch that’s easily spooked by curse words, then this probably isn’t for you. Though...you can sneak this to your cook boyfriend if you want to break up, because he already read the fucking book, Berta, I thought you knew him better by now!...Now you can finally segway to break up. Congratulations!
You’ll see the workings of a mind that was suffering. That was the reflection of this entire autobiography. Suffering and food. That’s life in reality, ain’t it?
Don’t expect cohesion or a semblance of logical flow of pacing. This book, like Mr. Bourdain’s mind, was a cluster fuck of erotically describing food, the dark corners and reality of the cooking world, and shitting on people because they were dicks.
He is sorely missed, and this isn’t a bit, but I still mourn his loss to the world. The world needs him again.
RIP to the GOAT.

Skullduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy
Read if you got tired of everything happy and sunshine in Percy Jackson and wanted blood, death, knives, SKELETONS, AND 12 year olds that are surprisingly self aware of the fact that they’re a teenager. You want less consumerism and capitalism than what Percy Jackson pushed down your throat. Finally, no mentions of those fucking gold arches, Riordan.
Oddly, no parents are dead in this book. In every YA book you read, there is at least one parent dead, gone to get milk, or playing Tears of the Kingdom. Pleasant surprise for this narrator.
You are also a person that hates world building that lastS for pages and pages. There’s none of that in this book. Expect pages of dialogue like it’s a transcript of my parent’s arguments.
Mom, I don’t agree with you. No, I don’t agree with you either, Dad. You fucking little….Just plant the damn fig tree, for fuck’s sake.
From other sources, apparently the book series gets darker as books go on, so take that as you will. Listening to Eminem and Linken Park between books may increase levels of angst in the subsequent books.
Side effects include: angst, a potentially bi-found family that lasts 10 seconds, fear of skeletons, mourning for fictional characters, and teenagers being oddly logical.
Post script: This would actually make an excellent autumnal book cause of spoopy skeletons.

The White Rose (Volume 3 of the Black Company) by Glen Cook
Read if you liked having Charm flashbacks of Volume 1, but want a great dopamine rush in Volume 3.
Night Circus got nothing on this book for reasons you’ll figure out later. Expect a lot of weird crack shenanigans such as talking rocks just to name an example. The Lady’s character is fleshed out a lot more than previous volumes. Twists and turns are aplenty and Croacker complaining he’s too old like an old grandpa shopping 10 AM at a Walmart.
Funny enough, Morgenstern is a lot related to this book in more ways than one. Move over, lady, Cook was the original writer of Night Circus, caramel popcorn and candy apples be damned! We’re eating crusty bread and thickened stew, bitch!
You’re not going to be at the edge of your seat until the last percentage of the book, but it’s worth the dopamine rush and emotions that are given in the end, long after you put the book down. You will find yourself wandering around the library wondering how you returned from a reality of flying manta rays and talking rocks...to old ass Swedes loitering in the lobby, discussing where to fika next.
You’ll need a lot of Monsters to process your emotions tonight.
You also finally figure out where Miyazaki got the inspiration for the Storm King in Demon Souls. All this time, you got mad at Miyazaki for inserting a giant manta ray for disappointing climax reasons. No. He may have understood Black Company more than we thought.
Coleydoesthings is also screaming at the top of her lungs by the end of the book, crying into her body pillow.

Conclusion: @
I’ll be traveling soon, so the books might be on the short side, but my dumbass quality will remain. Just sprinkled with a lot of curry, chapati, and a big helping of obesity.
God, my thighs can’t take anymore of America.
I think I’ll have fun reading Elantris cause it’s literally a love letter to Soulsbourne and I might learn a bit from it! Can’t wait for it!
I know it’s not book related too much, but what were y’alls favorite in Eurovision?
(Did anyone feel like Armenia just spent money to send that girl an expensive Tinder profile?)
