Entertainment, Ideas, and Random Stories!!! by harry3

BORED? Check this out! Not only does this include totally random, funny, short stories that make no sense it also includes jokes, riddles, things to do when you're bored, movie/book/YouTube recommendations to keep you entertained/laughing and SO MUCH MORE. The short stories were written out of boredom for fun and to entertain others :). Each short story jumps from one idea to the next every sentence, not really sticking on topic, but it's still like a journey for the character. Hopefully it makes someone's day or gives them an idea. So... Enjoy! P.S. I know this says "completed," and it kind of is in that it's not a regular story with a plot line (beginning, middle, and end). However, I will continue to update and add parts to it in the future.

When Kayla returns to her childhood home for summer break, she expects nothing more than hazy days spent behind her camera and restless nights scrolling through her phone. But that all changes when she meets Vasile. With his hypnotic presence, sharp wit, and a smile that never quite reaches his eyes, Vasile is unlike anyone Kayla has ever met. What begins as an innocent curiosity spirals into irresistible obsession. Vasile's presence stirs something deep within her: a desire she can't quite name, but one that pulls her in even as her instincts scream for caution. His touch is gentle, his words soft, but there's a shadow behind his smile, something he's hiding. She can't shake the feeling that there's more than meets the eye-something dark, ancient -- something not entirely human.

Every song is magic, every line has a meaning and in the end everything is connected.

The Book of Voltaire: Descent To Madness by VoltaireMalkavian

I'm an emotional dependent vampire. I do not need to feed on mortal blood, all I need is people's energy. I give them a good laugh, and I absorb that positive energy. If I were to absorb negative energy, I would feel worse than they do. Not only that, I am also a delusional psychic. Being a delusional psychic gives me pros and cons of my daily life. 50/50 of my premonitions are either delusion or any actual foreshadowing of the future like a seer and the way I could read people's minds so easily. I have this profound power of knowing things instantly that is impossible for me to even know, to the point that I shouldn't even know them. It is a creative and intuitive talent that helps me write books as I could use clairvoyance around the surrounding area and beyond, in order for me to write as much as information as I can. Such as "auto-writing" while astral projecting.

Different #WATTYS2016 by Tales_OfA_Wallflower

"If you want to get rid of her you need to out smart her," she said looking into space. That caused me to look up in shock at the outburst. "You can't get rid of the devil," the words slipped out before I could stop them. Karen isn't like a normal person.Something isn't right with her, you could tell by the gleam in her eye. She gets obsessed and eventually wants to become you. When she wants something she will make it happen. And what she wants is them dead.
