The scariest kinda buyers are the mourners. Because they’re way too sad to give up, they’ll work, and work, and work. And they won’t stop til they’ve created a monster.
-Retired Regional Manager of MavraCorp in Bluuet AMA
“Well... Shit, this is weird. Uh... I want him to be tall.”
Those words awoke the MavraCorp Perfect Boyfriend, that word, “tall”, resonated within him.
Tall. Adjective. Of greater then average vertical height.
That was the definition his databanks gave him. The MavraCorp databank also let the golem know that the average height for this region was 6’2, so the Perfect Boyfriend would have to exceed that.
Immediately the MavraCorp Perfect Boyfriend began to restructure itself to match that.
9’2 is a good height, it was ta-

“Oh Gods! Too tall, be... uh... 6’5!?”
6’5 was greater then 6’2, it was tall. The MavraCorp Perfect Boyfriend would have become the specified height even if it wasn’t tall, the MavraCorp Perfect Boyfriend lived to serve his operator. The voice had to be the operator-

Li flinched, and looked up at me like he’d seen… or more heard, I guess… a ghost.

The Operator ran out of the room, looking extremely panicked.
Jay would have followed him, but he did not have a material body at the moment.

Blackened Blood[Progression Fantasy]
Broken and lost by the dredges of this world a boy awakens once again into life's game within hallowed black halls, his first taste of new life cold and hunger along with the echoing drip of temptation. Deep sickness festering within in him. Given a second chance by either coincidence or something more sinister, follow the story of he who bleeds black. Betrayal, greed and blood littered in droves across this hellbound path. ********** 2000+ words daily for now, will reduce to thrice a week after the writathon. If it wasn't clear, this is a vampire story taking place in a high fantasy environment. Although while its main character is a vampire and that is one main focus of the story it will also lend itself to the magic side of this world as well. Basically, if you're interested in vampires or magic heavy stories, this will have something for you... probably. The synopsis is kinda vague but If you give it a shot, I think you'll like it. Also, feel free to drop any sort of constructive criticism since this is one of my first experiences writing in first person.Forgot to add that the story will be a little less action-orientated until around chapter 20+ when... well... read and see :) Any chapters with the * next to them have been edited or tweaked. I'll remove it once all of them are.

Convicted
Sentenced to the sea for a crime he didn't commit... Wrongly convicted of killing his lover, Li is sent off to serve his sentence in the privateer fleet of Mahlon, where he finds himself somewhere between a sailor and a pirate. He supposes it is a better way to die than wasting away in a prison cell for a crime he didn't commit. If it isn't the sea or sailing necromancers that threaten his life, perhaps it is his assigned partner, an unfriendly man named Ardlac who seems to want nothing to do with a stranger sharing his space. Li doesn't know that his unfriendly exterior masks a wounded soul suffering from a loss Li can understand far too well. But that is only one of the many secrets lurking around him and one of the many threats to uncover. CONVICTED is a low-stakes story about healing, recovery, and comfort. Originally posted on Tapas, I am now cross-posting this story on Royal Road, Wattpad, and Neovel.
