Adsum is a latin term which means "I am here".
This is our first impromptu writing pieces. The main idea of this story revolves around a university student conducting an experiment on her friend and herself which challenges the very definition of empathy in human behavior, and the extent of which we can push that with the aid of technology. And then, what?

Love Misunderstood
I only ever met one man I'd call truly noble. He was a man who was misunderstood and worthy of the world, yet everyone saw him differently. That was until I saw his true colours. The more I caught his eye the more he noticed me. We would pass each other, I would always stare a little longer at his back, wondering his story. People used to move out of the hallways if they saw him approaching whereas people would come and talk to me. He kept to himself, I was never alone, he had no friends, I was friends with everyone, I never saw him talk to anyone I spoke to many. we were polar opposites. At least that's what I thought until that day in the library, that is where I will start this story. Everyone is different, I hate the word "different", I much prefer the word unique. Unique is the only way to describe him. This is not just a story about love, it is about helping two souls who act differently but are the same on the inside, it shows the messy parts that aren't shown in movies, the tragedy, and the comedy but most of all the sizzling romance between two broken people who became one. Who is this story about? Caden James. But this is not just his story, It is ours.Complete
The Story I Wish Was True
A story alway means something important to someone. Maybe the writer is the most attached to the work,because it's something that person made with great efforts. This is something like that for me. Now here is the description of this story : Two teens in their early teen hood met at a time when they finally started to know about friendship, what are other people like(not seeing people for the first time but you know this is the age when human brains start to adapt to others more comfortably), excited to try new things and etc. Well two different polar attracts each other its a scientific fact!! For me and my friend it was like that. All of this is fine but it seems I am going to get back to the introverted person in the past. Why? You will know in the Story!!!!

The Birth of Emotions
Book #1 in Emotions series Emotions are what drives us to do anything, from the excitement from winning a competition, to the feeling of loneliness in an isolated room, and even the rage of losing a dear friend in battle. These are all dictated by the feelings in your heart, but do you want to feel pain and misery? Eight of the Nine Gods of the world of Isa strongly believe emotions make a vital part of the eight races of this land, the Humans, Elves, Dwarves, the Fangli, Gigas, Sprixies, the Aqua, and the Demi, but one god stands against it. His name is Soalious. He had begun eliminating all trace of feeling from the races centuries ago, until the other Gods stopped him and sealed him away using the very emotions he attempted to make disappear, but those bonds are beginning to break. The Gods only had one solution to end this forever, to entrust eight Emotion Orbs to the eight races of Isa so that they may be able to assist the Gods to end Soalious forever.Complete
Holding Out
[ COMPLETED] Excerpt: Come in." I said pulling him into my office. "I'm actually glad you came. I was going to call you and tell you that, even though I thought the gestures were really nice. It has to stop." "Go out with me tonight." He said taking a step closer to me, ignoring what I'd just said. I could feel his breath on my skin and I didn't know if I would be able to keep my hands to myself. "Did you hear what I just said?" I asked in barely a whisper, taking another step back. "Yeah." He said nodding his head. "Go out with me...tonight." he stepped closer again. "I..." I felt him getting closer and I couldn't breathe. My mind was screaming yes. "I can't."Complete
