~Based on "The Third Floor Bedroom" in The Mysteries of Harris Burdick~
There is no greater value than a life, perhaps it is the only true equality that will ever be witnessed. We are all so different and unrelated but would not be payed a greater sum as the price for an individual's death. Nor would we see any profit at all. That raises the question, why are we so fragile, and why are we so ready to walk the line between living and the green mile?
Our lives are only worth something because of the people in them. Or not.

Survive
We believe in right and wrong. We believe in black and white. We believe that our life grounds us, that a book is our trip to the moon. But what if that trip takes you somewhere else? What if? What if Thomas had died that day in Wicked, when they tried to operate on him? What if his friends couldn't save him? *Set after death cure(with points from both book and movie)* *triggering subjects linking to mental health* *Do not own any of the characters (except the created ones) or the main settings/idea of the dystopian world, CREDIT TO JAMES DASHNER*Abgeschlossene Geschichte
The Doctor's Assistant
Have you ever felt so unimaginably lonely? Ever wanted to end your life because things have gotten so unbelievably horrible? Parents misunderstanding you? Pressure too much amongst your daily stresses? Do not fret, just walk to the back alley behind Maple View Memorial Hospital. Walk down the creaking metal steps, knock a few times on the wooden door and the doctor will handle the rest. These were some of the things Elliot heard being whispered at the weekly depression seminars. They were dying for a way out, a way out of life. A way that didn't involve hanging in the kitchen before the movers showed up. With mom and dad dead from a car crash a few weeks prior, and zero friends to acknowledge their absence, Elliot decides to visit the doctor. But is it more than what they bargained for?Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Is This The End?
I had been living in this dystopian universe my whole life. We lived simple, meaningless lives. I wasn't sad, merely dissatisfied. No one here was ever sad. The Center, which was our government, forced us to take a pill every morning to make sure we were always happy and healthy. For most of our lives we lived at home with our odd families that the government stuck us into as babies. Usually five children were put into each household. We grew up together in a single house, raised and taught by a robot even though none of us were related. We lived at home with limitless entertainment in the form of advanced technologies. We had one day of the week for shopping, one day for going out and one day for labor. On labor days we were assigned a job and had to complete it in order to gain money for the week. Everyone got the same amount no matter the job. If you didn't show up for these jobs there were grave consequences. The Center often used torture as a method of punishment, or so we were told. No one close to me had ever actually been punished by The Center though. It was incredibly rare. Most of us lived our lives as good little pawns doing nothing more than eating, sleeping and entertaining ourselves. But one day, my regular boring life changed...Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Archeia's Atheneum (The First Shift)
You're awake. You're different. You exist, suddenly, as two things. You, the one you know, with the body and name you're familiar with--and this new you, the one exists within you. This you is inhabiting a world within your own. This other consciousness that you see through has begun to sense its timeline, each word a moment. Like the you you're familiar with, this self seems to come into its life mid-story--though the way you experience this life/story differs vastly from what you're used to. As you grow you will eventually know how to articulate it, even recreate it. First, however, you must choose to embark on/in this small incarnation; you must read the first word. For those who will tread forth on this journey, we salute you. You have been dubbed Archeia, may your journey be ever abundant.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
The Trials (The First Book in the Life Button Series)
What if life was dependent on a button? Your life specifically....and if someone decided that they didn't like you, they could turn that button off. But only the government had control of those buttons. Had control of lives. Had the control of who lives and who dies? Acid is no exceptions to this way of life. One wrong step, one wrong move, and you are dead. Or as they say, Gone. It's an unsaid rule that you don't say nothing bad about anyone working for the government. Unsaid that you don't try to escape The Town. Unsaid that you don't do anything out of daily life. Unsaid that one person can kill all.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

The Greylands: Modern Edition
A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Knife
What is perfection? Is everything really what we perceive it to be? What really is the so-called "greater good," because isn't it different for everyone? As Lexi explores the power of granting her own wishes, she realizes that maybe the perfect dreams that everyone has may not be the answer, but just our own greed piling up until truly, you have nothing.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
