《Unstable》Chapter 9
Advertisement
Yoga was calming but I couldn't completely relax. The kiss between me and Shouto was constantly on my mind. I felt like I was getting red just thinking about it. UGH! SNAP OUT OF IT IDOT!
Lunch started off calm but, we had chili cheese fires. Hitoshi wasn't satisfied with his portion. He started taking some of Katsuki's food. That made the blond upset. He threw some of the chili at Hitoshi. In response Hitoshi tried spitting water on Katsuki. Then they stared yelling insults I'm not really sure if they were insults. . .
K: "Sucidal whore."
H: "Homicidal bitch."
K: "Chili cheese slut."
H: "You $2 hooker."
K: "I fucking love you, you sleep deprived purple fuck."
H: "I fucking love you more you explosive bastard."
On the way back Katsuki and Hitoshi held hands while insulting each other. It was cute in a passive aggressive way. I kind of want to hold hands with Shouto. AAAAAAAAHHHHH! NO! Well there I go again with my stupid thoughts.
"What?"
I looked up to see Shouto turning a light shade of pink. Oh shit.
"Did I say that outloud?"
Shouto nodded. He looked at me and offered his hand. I took it. Why wouldn't I. We walked back to the unit holding hands like idots.
The day went pretty smoothly and calm. Everyone played cards, watched TV or colored.
A few hours later
"Hey Pikachu what time is it,"yelled Mina.
Kamanari walked towards the TV and leaned in. Is that how you tell time here.
"8:30,"he said.
"Alright then we should do it now,"she said,"All right you fuckers it's time for the noobs to talk!"
The whole unit gathered around the small table. Everyone sat down. They were huddled in an odd shaped circle.

"What were gonna do is say how and why we're here,"said Jirou.
"Simple right,"chimed in Momo
I nodded so did Katsuki, Shoizaki and Kamanari. We all looked at one another not sure who wanted to say what first.
"Alright I guess I'll start."
It was Hitoshi talking. He looked even more tired than usual.
"So I live with my aunt because my parents died when I was ten. She's really abusive and manipulative. The reason is I'm guessing becuase of the toxic relationship she has with her stupid rebound boyfriend. So CPS had to intervene. I tried overdosing but that didn't work cause I'm here now."
I looked at him. I wanted to cry. I wanted to hug him. Then again I couldn't react like this hearing everyone's story. I tried to not cry. But I couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
"So,"said Jirou,"my parents are also dead. But unlike Hitoshi here I didn't have anyone else to take me in so I ended up in the foster care system. I didn't do to well there. I started getting in to trouble with the law and a few people. And the people who tried taking me in always sent me back to the fucking foster home. I couldn't take it anymore. I was going to shoot myself but someone found out. So i ditched that plan and tried jumping off the top of the shitty foster home."
I didn't know if I would last. Could I really sit here and listen to all of this? Both Jirou and Hitoshi has been through so much. My life probably sounds like a rainbow compared to these people's. They sound like they have real problems.
Mina started talking,"Mine is partially genetics. I have schizophrenia and that's something that can't be helped. But the other part is I'm in a gang. We're pretty well known where I'm from. We have a piece of the city that's pretty much ours and if you mess with us chances are you won't be around for very long. I also happen to be in the foster care system. But my depression got pretty bad and I was getting suicidal. When my psychiatrist found out she hospitalized me."

I looked to the next person. Kamanari was next. He looked sad like most of us here.
"My family is shitty. Basically I've always had to take care of myself. I pretty much live on the streets. I only go back to my house when I need some food or it's really cold out and I want somewhere to sleep. I developed paranoia too because of living out on the streets and always having to watch my back. I tried slitting my wrist with a piece of a broken bottle I found in the park. I guessed someone saw me bleeding to death on the ground and called an ambulance ."
Oh god everyone here has been through so much and I'm just here. Man my reasons feel stupid compared to all of theirs.
"Well,"said Shoizaki looking down at the floor,"my family situation is pretty bad too. My mom is overbearing and she tries to constantly monitor me. My dad is the kind of person to take his problems out on us. So I got really depressed. I tried hanging my self but it didn't work."
Up next Momo.
"Mine is really simple. I've always been suicidal and depressed. That's because of genetics. My parents, therapists and psychiatrists were all concerned. They all decided that this would be the best option so my parents brought me here."
So Momo is messed up but its not anyone's fault or hers.
Next, Uraraka.
"I also have schizophrenia. So you know my genes are just fucked up. My family is great but my dad's business hasn't been doing well. Our financial situation isn't very good. I wanted to help but I didn't want minimum wage so I tried something that payed more. I started selling meth and shit. I've a few close encounters with the cops. This time I got arrested. The court took it into count that I was already mentally fucked and decided to send me here."
Next, Iida.
"My situation is simple to understand. My brother is in the hospital and I have parents have these unrealistic expectations for me and the pressure got to me. I tried hanging myself. I also have OCD."
I'm glad someone here sounds like they're in here for something I would be.
Next . . .Oh shit it's me.

If you find it anywhere else, please reach out to me. Thank you. Old cover provided by Asviloka. She's also does werds!Current cover provided by Fuyudust. Old synopsis "Hi, my name is Alexis," I say into the camera, as I attempt to calm my nerves."And I'm Sab," I hear my best friend add from beside me. It's good to have her there, it's been far too long."I'm trying to focus," I tell Sab as I look into the camera. Will anyone even watch this?"What, just cause I didn't get sent to another world, where magic and dragons are real, I don't get to be a part of this?" she questions me. I can hear the hurt in her voice. I wish she'd been there. Things might have been... different. I can't believe I thought it was a game. If it had been, she'd have been the better choice."I said I was sorry. It's not like I knew I was going to be kidnapped by the system," I lamely apologize. She deserves more, but this is important."Coming soon, to an earth near you," she might be making light, but I can hear the fear in her voice."It's not funny Sab. It really is coming," I can't help but reply to her words, even though I know she didn't mean it."Come on Lexi, it's a little funny." she tries while chuckling nervously."Sigh. Look, can we just get back to telling them?" I ask, pointing at the laptop."Sure, but first you should show them some magic," Sab declares while waving her arms around."I told you. It's not that simple. I only showed you because you could tell it wasn't fake. They'd just think it was special effects," or come after me to try to lock me in a basement."Yeah, well they're not going to believe you anyway. It sounds pretty crazy, even to me. And I've seen what you can do," she proclaims. I didn't think it was that special, but she was super impressed by my magical abilities."Maybe, but I have to try. We don't have much time," I state as I stop the recording, before starting a new one."Hello, my name is Alexis," I pronounce, projecting as much confidence as I can at the little camera."Remember, the world ends on a Tuesday."

Lone: The Wanderer [Dropped Version (includes original draft of the rewrite's first volume)]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer? [Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies] A/N: This story is in the middle of a rewrite, so please forgive any noticeable plot holes and wonky chapter numbers. I am working on it every day, so understanding would be greatly appreciated. The new cover art is a courtesy of the very kind and talented ssddx. This novel is a participant in The Writer's Pledge

Personal Agency
It is better to die knowing. Listen. The world as you know it is not as you know it. It is a construction, a facade, a mural painted over the world to hide the fact that it is very broken on some fundamental levels. That there exists an entire spiritual realm, one of cognition and perception and memory and that it teems with awful life. The world was not made for us. Jacob Irwing is a fairly normal 26 year old American man. He's an amateur photographer, unmarried and does not work in his chosen field. He is also dying, right now, in the first chapter of this story. Someone has put a bullet in him. Agent Z is a fairly abnormal woman of no nationality. Her age is classified. Her name is classified. Her background? You better believe it's classified. She works for the people who hide the truth. She is going to wake up with a hole in her head in the first chapter of this story, surrounded by corpses and also by a dying fairly normal 26 year old American man. Burned and seemingly abandoned by the Agency, Agent Z has lost her memory, her security clearance and her authorisation. All that she's gained is Jacob, who is thoroughly in this shit now. Together they must work to uncover the truth, if any such thing even exists, in this erratic urban fantasy weird-fic. Updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Australian time.
