I think Fate got the message, since she's left me alone. It's been quiet. No dragons, swirling doom vortexes, or mysterious glowing amulets have showed up. It's actually been a bit too quiet. I'm happy, of course, but also a bit worried about Fate. Sure she's one of the most powerful beings in the universe, but there are things that can fuck her up, surely.
Suddenly, God decides to troll me, because this devishly handsome (in a mysterious, brooding sort of way) guy walks up to me and flips off his hood like he's going to speak to me.
Please don't hand me an amulet, please don't hand me an amulet.
"Here, take this," the mysterious brooding guy says, and places an amulet in my hand.
Shit.
"My name is Pierre," he says, and only then do I realize he is French.
I scratch my head, searching for a way out of this scenario. Finally, it comes to me. "Sorry, but I'm a lesbian."
Just to clarify, I'm not lesbian (cue your hate comments, I know they're coming). I just wanted mysterious brooding French dude off my ass.
After the French dude leaves, I throw the amulet away. It is now that Fate decides to show up, and I think she's angry.
"You moron! That was the beginning of your story. He was the love interest!" she spits.
"Was the dragon my love interest too?" I ask, and I actually want to know the answer.
Fate rolls her eyes. "I told you, Jennifer, you are a main character. You cannot escape that."
"Whatever, bitch."
"And I know you aren't actually lesbian," she says, and I think it's a threat or something.
"Well, don't tell Pierre, okay?"
