Inchoate (adjective): imperfectly formed or formulated
As soon as the door was shut and the world became distant, a torrent of tears broke through the dam. Finally, he allowed himself to cry, every wall and shield down at last.
Adults were the most contradictory people on earth.
Today, they shouted that they had a right to express their disapproval, then immediately screeched at him when he voiced his own. They howled at him, wondering why he wouldn’t apologize, when they had never done so themselves.
If he answered their questions, he’d be “an ungrateful son that talked back.”
If he stayed silent, he’d be “an ungrateful son that didn’t care.”
Without making a sound, he slammed his face into a pillow and screamed. A silent cry for comfort that went unheard… and ironically, would’ve given him even more pain if it was heard.
He punched the soft bed as hard as he could.
Why was the world so cruel, so dark, so-
The door opened.
Heart-wrenching fear shot through his veins but the figure standing in the hallway was not his parents.
It was his little brother. Quietly stepping into the room, the smaller boy dropped something on the ground and fled.

Cornerman (Naruto)
A melting icecap, a bubbling spring or the soft autumn rain; small trickling streams that, over many years, grow into mighty rivers. Within every man lies the call to power - it is as much a part of him as his very own blood. The foolish drink from that vital liquid, but the wise know that strength is not worth seeking. Instead, they desire that which lies beyond it. They follow the mighty river to its source. Eyes wide, they spot the glistening icecap. Ears open, they listen for the bubbling spring. Nose twitching, they smell the scent of the autumn rain. They find those small, trickling streams. They are led to the source from which strength flows. It is that which beats within the bosom of every man: a blood-red heart.

Roulette: A Random Tale
Waking up in a strange world with amnesia? Not good. Having no access to the System or Status Screens that everyone else seems to be using? Not great. Randomly gaining powers that you have no idea how to control? Not super. Said powers changing/replacing themselves at random and inconvenient times, usually when you're just getting used to them? Not cool. Not being able to control this constant change in your powers in any way? Not awesome. People considering your random powers - that can range from completely useless to nigh godlike - to be a threat to the world as they know it? Really bad. The local ability stealing Big Bad taking an interest? Even worse. But you try. You try to make it through your life, even when things seem to be stacked up agains you. You got dealt a bad hand, but you're gonna make the best of it. Or die trying.
