《Holmes: the case of dead man's sleep》feb. 15 20xx : Log 13
Advertisement
I haven’t been writing as much recently. After the Hare’s case, things have pretty much gone back to normal. So far the worst offense I’ve gotten was a report of a demented clown. You’d be surprised how common those ones are. As you can guess, there were no clowns, demented or otherwise. Just a sad man in need of a therapist. Honestly, some people watch too many movies. When I mentioned it to Gosbi he just looked at me condescendingly. Like he knows something, I don’t, it's worrisome but I’ve learned not to question it.
Even though I’m happy with how things have been these last few days, Gosbi has been a lot more interested in making mountains out of molehills. Personally, I just think he’s bored. Not that we don’t have work but according to Gosbi the work we have is as he says, “a waste of time.”
Of course, this all changed this morning when we received a letter. It was addressed to Mr. Holms, it looked like the person had crossed something out before writing “Holmes” I can only assume it’s Gosbi’s real name. Gosbi’s eyes lit up as he read the letter. Before running upstairs and shutting himself in his room. Today Gosbi explained the details of the note.
A man, by the name of Scott Flouts, was drowned in the fountain of an electronic’s company known as Virtue World. His death has been marked as suicide as there are multiple witnesses who can confirm this. Joseph Deets, the head of Virtue World, thinks there’s more going on. He wants to hire Gosbi to figure out what. I’ve heard about Mr. Deets, he’s known throughout Harlem as an upstanding individual, even receiving a peace prize for his advancements in technology. I can’t imagine why Gosbi's so interested in this case. Either way, Gosbi’s told me he’s taking the case in hopes to “cave his boredom” I don’t see a problem with it as long as I keep an eye on him. Besides I’m curious too.

Star Gazer
When the mist rolls in, most would either head inside, or brave it's perils via familiar terrain. But what if that mist holds secrets beyond which most could comprehend, let alone traverse? Mia, unequipped as she was, found herself in that very situation, but as danger approached, another came in time to save the girl from the unknown. Luke was a victim of the mist just as she was, and the pair had now begun a journey in a world home to only one of them from which a destiny was soon to be forged. ~~~~~ Star Gazer is high fantasy adventure set in a massive world within which our maturing duo of protagonists will be challenged to uncover truths few are aware are hidden at all. Elements of LitRPG are scattered within and function more as elements of certain character's abilities to read others, rather than a progression system by which our heroes will rely on. Updates will begin daily during premier week, but will slow down to 3 times weekly until further notice. Thank you for any and all support!

Monstrous Path
This story is both dark and lighthearted, it will have a lot of deaths and gore scenes but not just for the sake of being edgy or something like that. Every being comes from someone’s life — a womb, an egg, the world, a God, and from itself. Then what about me? I came from a container, so what does that make me? Am I still a being? “I do not know — I want to understand — why?” This was my driving force to live when I opened my eyes, I had no need for food, I only needed to satiate my curiosity. But as I learned early on, life was not as simple as it seemed. Note: The Characters in this world would always have a reason for living, and the world moves not just because of the MC. This would also have a lot of tearjerking scenes (or so I would hope) Culture, Race, Government, and Language can and will be different and though some Races like Elves and Dwarves are present, please do not think that they are the same as every other.
