Alex's P.O.V
I'm a fucking rich bitch. A millionaire. Pinch me I'm dreaming. After leaving the lawyers office and stopping by Harpers to tell her parents we are back at my house. Harper says she is going for a shower.
As I sit I am thinking about what I can do with the money. I know our future and our peanuts future is set. The first person that popped into my head is LoLo. She has been wanting some new things and she needs a new car. I decide I am going to give her money. She is my best friend and every time my father fucked me up she always came and took care of me without question. She never judged me or left me. After that I joined Harper in the shower.
A long shower later we are laying in bed and I decide to tell Harper my plan. Afterwards she gets tired and we fall asleep.
The next morning I wake up to find Harper gone. I see a note on her pillow.
Lex,
I had to go my mom called and said she wanted to take me shopping for the baby. I didn't want to wake you because you looked so peaceful. I will call you when we get back.
Love,
Harper and Peanut
I smile at the note and decide today is the perfect day to surprise Lo. I get up and get dressed writing a note for Harper just in case she gets back before me and go to the bank. I withdrawal $50,000 from the bank. While they are approving it and getting the money ready I call Lo.
After planning for her to meet me at the park in an hour I wait for the money. Once it is ready I head to the park to find Lo already there.

"Hey Lo What's up?"
"I should be asking you that. You sounded like you had something important to tell me."
"Actually I do. You know you are my best friend right?" I ask sitting down on the bench beside her. She nods. "You know you always took care of me when I needed you and you never judged me or left me or questioned me. You will never know how much that means to me" I say looking into her eyes. Her eyes are shining with unshed tears. "I love you Lo and you probably saved my life a few times over the years. I can never repay you for what you have done for me but I think this" i say while pulling the envelope out of my bag "can help you a little. I know you need a new car and you want those $300 headphones and new MacBook. Think of it as a token of my appreciation for everything you have done for me." I say handing her the envelope.
She opens it and gasps.
"Is this a joke? Where did you get this? What the fuck Alex?"
"Not a joke. I'm a millionaire now" I say grinning at her. She looks from me to the envelope and back to me before throwing her arms around my neck crying onto my shoulder.
"I love you too Alex but how much money is this? I can't accept this." She says pulling away and pushing the envelope back to me.
"It's $50,000. Yes you can and you will. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you Lo." I say pushing the envelope back to her. "Take it. Buy your new car and all that other shit you want. Buy Chel something nice. Hell I don't care what you do with it but its yours."

She hugs me again and we talk a little before heading back to our homes. I walk in and see Harper standing in front of the fridge in nothing but one of my t shirts and her underwear. I stand in the doorway leaning against the frame before whistling causing her to spin around.
"Shit Lex you scarred me" she says clutching her chest.
"Sorry baby you look sexy barefoot and pregnant in my kitchen" I say with a smirk. She rolls her eyes and walks over to me pecking my lips. As she pulls away I grab her and pull her back in for a real kiss. We are broken apart my her stomach growling. I tell her to sit and ask her what she wants for dinner. We decide on tacos.
We cook together and eat like a little family. After dinner Harper pulls me up to my bedroom. She pushes me down on the bed and bites her lip straddling me before attacking my lips with her own. Yeah, this is my life. Harper is my home. Harper is my family.

Joie de Vivre
A modern man chased immortality and found it. In a mixture of good and bad luck, he was re-born as part of the Uzumaki clan from the Naruto-verse, some few years before their scheduled destruction. But if Daichi were the sort to allow a little thing like fate to get in his way, he'd never have survived in the first place. Dedicated, intelligent, chock full of ideas from a technologically advanced society, and perfectly willing to scorch the earth, he sets out to avert history. Can he avert canon, save the Uzumaki, and forge his people into a mighty nation? Or will he fail, dooming his clan to extinction? At the end of the day, all he wants is a good life. And considering even Death itself didn't stop him, he pities whoever gets in his way. ================== Tags: Naruto, Reincarnation, OC, eventual multi-cross. ================== Author's (Brief) Note: Back by popular demand. This was my first significant fanfic (and fic in general). I wasn't happy with the writing as time went on, and took it down, but years later am still getting requests to put it back up so I guess some people liked it. Newly re-released as I finish some minor editing, there are about 100,000 words (~360 RRL pages) already written, so releases should be fast until I catch up with the backlog. That said, it may languish in hiatus at that point if the interest isn't high enough to merit continuing, so if you're the type to only read finished stories (or ones where the author promises to do so), I am very specifically not promising that. On the other hand, if enough people read, like, review, comment, rate, etc. then it will get added to my writing schedule. Generally, the character is based on a “how badass could someone who hasn't done ridiculously crazy shit be? Or, how does someone with the potential, in another setting, with a lot of luck, to be a badass act and develop as a modern, productive member of society? And then how would they deal with the Naruto-verse?” Please, please do not judge my writing by this. Unless you really like it, in which case fine, do, but recognize my other writing is likely better (unless it’s that one MTG/ASoIaF/SW fic I did over on SB as a speed-writing experiment, which is also pretty terrible).

Daily life of a cultivation judge
Tired of those cultivators who think it is righteous to eliminate a sect or clan root and stem all in the name of revenge and avoiding future troubles, fights over treasures that end up destroying cities with no consequence whatsoever to the culprit, these psychos whose aim for the peak always involves a trail of carnage and bloodshed in its wake for some reason. Then look no further than the daily life of a cultivation judge. Yang Qing, is a young genius cultivator from a low-tier family whose only safe choice to get resources and hopefully lead an easy life led him to the courts of the Cultivation Order Society. Author’s disclaimer: Hey there this is my first novel so any criticism will be well taken though beware I’m a million-year-old monster who has cultivated the way of the sword to the peak. The daily life of a cultivation judge will be true to its name so it will be heavily on the slice of life lane with a bit of action here and there.Meaning we will see the life of Yang Qing when he clocks in and out. Hopefully, it will be one of those novels you read if you need to relax or are in a slacker mood like one of those otakus who listen to the noises of cicadas in the summer famously used in most animes. And it is in the slacker spirit that chapter release will be on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. Sank yuuu Cover art by Conny Schneider on Unsplash
