“Intrusive ideas are like frostbite in the sun when it hits my tounge.it’s always late, belittled and bitter.
Unpredictable looks shifts through eyes and out of facial expressions that are best met with laughter, honestly it’s just short of disaster.
Your perceptions of me are poison apples
That I eat everyday and they always get stuck in my throat. But even death won’t these touch lips.” Aspen read to her friend Joseph.
The coffee shop was loud but the silence between them was heavy and still. Aspen bit her lip while she searched for something, anything in Joseph’s eyes. Joseph's bright blue eyes stared hard at his coffee. Aspen looked at the clock
10:15 p.m.
“Goodness aspen-“ Joseph whispered
“Hey guys! Who died?” a mutual friend named Eden walk towards the table
“No one I’m just tired of aspen’s poems bout hating us all” Joseph said while looking everywhere but aspen.
Eden pulled a chair out and sat down.
“Your being dramatic Joseph, you should feel special to hear them, she’s also a grown women so don’t start telling her what to do..”eden reassured then grinned at aspen.
“ Is that so? I’m just worried she’s also been talking bout the forbidden spell and how she might take the risk of being beheaded just to pull it off! She’s been in our witch academy six month and she’s already trying to risk her life!” Joseph declared in a very irrational manner.
“I thought we were best friends Joseph? Can you stop being so harsh? I have good reasons!” Aspen defended herself.
Aspen grabbed her notebook and stomped off.
Whatever, what does he know bout losing anyone, if he’s not careful he definitely will though
Aspen thought to herself while hoping on to her broom and rode off into the cold misty night.

She arrived home after thirty shivering minutes, her home was like a mansion. She had a huge front porch that she decorated in various house plants. Her feet started to get wet, even through her shoes due to the dew that clung to the grass as she walked towards her home.
I’m so silly for even thinking I could tell Joseph anything, he’s right.
Where would I even find the spell? It’s been banned and all i know is the name
As above so below
It’s the only place I can find the ingredient I need though.
That’s what that goth girl in class was telling me anyway.
Aspen got lost in such deep thought it took her minutes to notice that she started floating. Aspen sighed as her feet finally touch the wood of her front porch. She looked off in to the tree line which the only thing that separated her from her neighbor house that was a good ways away. It was her only neighbor.
Aspen was hooked watching her neighbors curves move in to the moonlight, it didn’t matter to aspen what her neighbor could’ve been doing as long as she could watch her for a moment, she had never seen another girl with such a body. Aspens juices started slowing running down her legs. She bites her lip and her fingers dance under her panties.

Thump thump
Aspen panics as she hears her roommates footsteps come down the stairs
She quickly sits on her porch swing.
The screen door flys open
“Oh it’s just you” John says with a sigh of relief
Aspen smiles while holding her notebooks while pretending to be semi normal.
“Still in uniform I see, don’t you get tired of wearing skirts?” He says while holding back a yawn
“Don’t be jealous your not magical John” she says then giggles.
John shrugges his shoulders and whispers “goodnight” while heading back inside.
As soon as the door closes she sinks into the swing.
Best to just call it a night at this point
She thinks while trying to pick up whatever dignity she had left before heading to bed.

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.
