Perhaps the most troubling thing was the worry, always the worry. Their eyes would weep and their brows would furrow, utterly confused and devastated that they could not fix you. You were something broken, beyond any reasonable doubt, and they needed to repair you into to any fragment of glory, regardless of the glass still embedded into your skin.
Yes, he decided. The worry was the most troublesome.
They sit upon stone and fires, feasting upon blades. The travel through mountains of rough terrain and past the jeering heavens. They still long enough for death to swim past Them, and breathe water to tear down soft flesh with calloused fingers. They carry cloth to shadow Their chest and bone so that They may shape it with jagged teeth, attacking mindlessly, lest someone rob Them of Pride.
They are not barren.
He was, of course, surrounded by these creatures. He stood and waited, watching with bated breath as they moved. Ruthless, yet agile, a grace unknown even by Them, though They never even friended interest when it was not for Their own gain.
At Birth, he knew nothing of Them.
At Then, he knew all about Them.
At Age, he was one of Them.

Blurb for book 1: 𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐒 I messed up - I messed up in typical Dylan fashion because I could never stand up to my Dad, I just couldn't be the Alpha that I was meant to be, that my older brother would have been proud of. Instead I was the Alpha that locked his mate away for a crime that I didn't even know if he actually committed, I thought about rejecting him because he was a man and I'm not gay and I refused to give into the bond and love him back. I felt insecure around Raiden because he's a feline. I was insecure because he's stronger, faster, more dominant and I hated how much my body gave into him - how much my body wanted to submit to him because I'm an Alpha and Alphas don't submit. So I caved and I tainted our bond, I hurt him beyond repair and when I just couldn't deny the bond anymore, I found out just how hard it would actually be to gain his trust back - to get him to want me again. Our bond ended with my mistake but our story began with my redemption.Complete
Creature (Minecraft YouTuber AU)
As the trees and its land slowly burn down by he deadly purple acid, a man that was watching from afar shivered at this sight. This has been going on for ages, and the creature hasn't been stopped. If they didn't stop the thing on time, everything they knew, everything they have ever known. Every building ever created, every world that has been generated, would be gone. The man looked towards his companion, or was he, his companion? His friend has been acting a bit strange, acting anything but not himself. The man took a deep breath and sighed. He looked towards the man with a stern face, gripping onto his iron sword. "Are you sure, you aren't, It?" His friend looked back at him, and chuckled coldly in response. "You know me, buddy, I wouldn't let It get to me." On the next day, the man's friend was gone. So was the other. *Narrating will get better the more you read* *COMPLETE* (YouTubers au, based on the actual ******** world.

Murder Drones: Connection Terminated
"Not pain. Not quite. More like a . . . numbness? And then a shock, driving his thoughts away like petals to the breeze. But what was this in front of him? They clearly weren't the standard nerds that would always harass him and definitely violate some of his constitutional rights the moment he became aware to the world. These were different, really different. If his suspicions were correct, they weren't even human at all." Jacob, after being told that he had a tumor that also apparent WASN'T a tumor since it 'tried to hide from the MRI' and spent countless decades of being stuck in a 'safe' cryostasis pod for an experimentation project run by a clandestine and government run research program, wakes up in an unfamiliar facility and surrounded by unfamiliar faces. With only two partially insane, emotionally driven, and incredibly unprofessional killer machines to assist him in finding out just what happened to the rest of the humans, along with having to deal with the constant debilitation of his mental faculties and the betrayal and hijacking of his own body, he knows only one thing is for sure; He is well and truly screwed.
Darkened Wings (BoyXBoy) {COMPLETE}
[Rated #22 in Angel] The one who sat in the throne was Leto himself. His body was huge, you could literally stand in his palm if you wanted to. His eyes were mysterious. His eyes completely black except for two small white dots in each one which were his pupils, it was visible from behind the mask that he always wore. The mask was half white and half black, both sides with pretty patterns such as small pointy triangles and a small curved line of white on the black side. His body was complete black and surrounded in smoke, fire blazing in plates on either side of the throne base in bright orange and red beautiful colours all mixing together perfectly. Rory stopped in front of Leto, bowing respectfully to his lord and master before straightening. Leto's booming loud voice filled the air next, startling Rory a little considering it was still early morning, about 3:13AM. "Greetings, Rory." Leto greeted almost emotionlessly, his voice showing no signs of anything, not even happiness or affection, like he didn't care about anything at all. Rory replied with a simple nod before replying, "Hello my lord, what duties do you have for me today? The regular?" "Actually, I have a mission for you today." Leto started, tapping his fingers together almost anxiously, even though his mask read no expression of excitement. "Something very big, and something very... Very important..." ...What would that be?... --- Black haired, yellow eyed, pale with black wings. Seemed humane ENOUGH. Rory is the only one of his demon species, from what he can remember. His only duties are to collect souls that seem unstable, broken or dark and return them to Leto so that they can be properly at peace. He doesn't ever care about anything else, other than pleasing his Lord with doing his job CORRECTLY. But when one of his missions require him to attend a nearby Highschool, the last thing on his mind is to 'make friends' or 'fit in.' But when Rory meets Hunter, that all changes. Completely.Complete
The Last of Her Kind (hobbit fanfic)
"Once there were many... Now, there is only me." Beorn's eyes held a shadow of sorrow and loss beneath them. "I might not be so sure of that." *** The Skin-changers were once a proud people who lived in the Misty Mountains. That was before the orcs invaded. All were either killed or enslaved for sport. All but Beorn died eventually in those caverns. Or so he thought... Niatha was born a skin-changer until their race was taken by the goblins. She believed she was the only survivor, and so did he. Her help is needed on the quest to Erebor. On this quest she will discover that she is not alone in this world. She is not the last... Trust is a thing that must be earned the hard way: there are no short-cuts, not cheats. A problem like this could mean the exposing of the most closely guarded secret a girl has ever held, for dwarves fear and hunt what they believe to be a threat. Even if they don't fully understand its meaning. Disclaimer-all but Niatha is owned by Tolkein and Peter Jackson.Complete
Alpha King's Human (completed)
I looked out of the window. The huge window had bars on it. It was designed in a way only I could see outside world. That's what I could only do. I could never live there. Why? There were two huge arms wrapped around me like chains as I stared at the window blankly. "Mate, I can still feel your dislike towards me. Tell me, what should I do to gain your affection. I'll do everything you say or buy anything for you. I love you, mate. Name it" I stared at his wolf eyes filled with love which made my heart churn. I pressed my urge to puke and stared blankly at him. "Free me" "I told you. I'll never leave you. How dare you think about going away mate. I'll fuck you so hard that you won't be able to step out of the bed. Then you'll carry my pups. Let's see how you'll deny my love" He growled angrily. In a minute. I was lying under him naked... Again. ---Complete
Blade ✔️
Blade's eyes turned cold. Like a dark colored ocean that just froze. He took a frightening step forward so now his face was only inches from my face, even with his height, making my breath hitch in my throat. I could no longer breath. No longer see people repeatedly walking past my house. No longer hear those birds in the tree that were begging me to run. I could only see his dark blue eyes that held so much danger and anger. I could only hear his rapid breathing and even his fast heartbeat. I was just that dazed into his stare.... more like glare. "Is there someone else?" he said so low no one could hear but me. And I heard him. So clearly. I heard the threat telling me to say yes for he can make whoever the competition is disappear. I heard the anger he held behind his low tone. I heard the jealousy beyond anything. That was what clouded over everything. "N-no," I stuttered. I'm angry to admit I was scared. How he towered over me didn't make it any better. Standing proudly at maybe a 6'4 or 6'5. While I stood at a 5'5. He scanned my face trying to look for any sign of me lying. And when he backed up I knew he couldn't find one because what I said was indeed true. To be honest there was only him. And it seems like that is what it will always be. The all famous gang leader and tough girl, cross paths. He hates disrespect and that's what she's all about. How do you think this will all play out in the end?Complete
Rogue. (IN REVISION)
Long ago, way before our time. A weary traveler left home to find new land for his family to thrive off of. Drought engulfed almost all of Elysium, called The Great Heat. The man traveled far and wide just to find a sign of life anywhere. It took him days and several hundred miles to find anything worth nourishment and care. He braved sand storms and blistering heat, his throat was dry and his feet could hardly carry him any farther. He collapsed onto the ground, his hands burning under the heat of the crackled ground. His vision blurred and mirages played with his suffering senses. His mind projected a tree into his line of vision, withering away but it's branches holding a single fruit. Besides his beliefs of it being a figment of his imagination, he crawled his way to it, bringing himself under the weak shade that it provided. He looked at the glistening purple fruit, what was it? He reached up to grab it, expecting it to fall through the image projected before him. His fingers wrapped around the fruit and he picked it from the branch. It was real! The fruit was real. He eagerly bit into the fruit and its juices trickled down his chin. He sat back and relaxed as the food nourished his body, he drank of its juices and picked out its many seeds, collecting them. He dug a deep hole until he felt moisture in the soil, planting the seeds into the ground. As it grew over time, the man used the old tree to build his home around the new one, tending to it religiously until it beared fruit. He brought his family and they lived there, planting trees and passing on the seeds for other places to spring life. Within five years the drought was over, Elysium was breathing again."Complete
tales of perdolia
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, there existed a planet called Haven, home to the legendary Knights of Haven. These brave warriors were tasked with defending their world and all the galaxies from malevolent rulers who sought to conquer and destroy. One fateful day, a powerful entity known as Malrex, the dark lord of shadows, emerged from the depths of the universe. With his army of demons and dragons, he laid waste to entire planets and sought to plunge the galaxy into darkness. The leader of the Knights, Sir Galadrim, a mighty warrior with a heart of gold, knew that they were facing a threat unlike any they had ever encountered before. He gathered his comrades to discuss a plan to defeat Malrex and save their world from certain destruction. As they ventured into the unknown realms of space, they encountered strange and mysterious beings, some friendly and others hostile. Along the way, they discovered ancient artifacts and powerful relics that would aid them in their quest. But as the battles raged on and the stakes grew higher, Sir Galadrim began to doubt if they could truly defeat Malrex and his dark forces. He knew that sacrifices would have to be made and that the fate of the galaxy rested on their shoulders. In the final showdown with Malrex, the Knights fought with all their might, unleashing their inner powers and strength. With the help of unexpected allies and a stroke of luck, they managed to defeat the dark lord once and for all. As peace returned to the galaxy, Sir Galadrim realized that their victory had come at a great cost. Many lives were lost, and the scars of battle would never truly heal. But he knew that as long as there were heroes like the Knights of Haven, the galaxy would always have hope in the face of darkness. And so, the tales of pareidolia were passed down through the generations, a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of those who stood against evil and fought for the light.
Wild Kratts: Here Be Dragons (Wild Kratts X Monster Hunter)
The spawn of the Black Dread have come. They wish to plunder this land of its resources. They lust for wealth, yet nothing will satisfy them. They greedily consume more and more to fill their bottomless gullets, yet it will never be enough. I swore, by the glory of the Sapphire Star, that I would protect this planet at all costs. I destroyed the greatest cities the world has and will ever see to protect this world. Seconds? Unnoticeable. Hours? Pft. Weeks? Mere heartbeats. Years? Meaningless. Decades? Trifles. Centuries? A speck of dust in the wind. Millenia? Ripples in the shallowest of puddles. Eons. That is the unit by which I measure time. When the world was just able to support life, I was there. When the first man opened his eyes, brought to life by the breath of the Sapphire Star, I was already old. When brick was laid on brick, I was ancient. I have leveled mountains with a flick of my tail. I have brought the most powerful civilization to ever exist to its knees. I have flown to edge of the sky and looked straight into the fiery golden eye of the blazing sun. Even the sun and moon bow to me. And now you six petty little businessmen think you can strike me down? Can a speck of dust hope to defeat a great inferno? Does a twig boast of being able to put out a firestorm? Would a mouse challenge a lion? You are but dust in the wind to me. You are less than the faintest shadow. Yet you force yourselves on my notice. Very well then. Let's see how much you swagger when I give you but the slightest taste of my power. (Disclaimer: I do not own any characters in this book, only the story itself.)Complete
