Shiny...
so smooth... and glossy...
Sparkly... smooth... feels... so... nice...
Aaaaaah... so... smooth...
Nice... and... cool...
Such... smooth... metal... surface...
WOULD YOU JUST SHUT THE BEEEEP UP! Do you have a smooth surface fetish or something? It's hard to sleep when you keep thinking about the SMOOTHNESS of the bloody capsule.
Eeeeeh?
But...
It's so smooth...
Great gods above! Why don't humans come with a mute button?
Alright...
I get it
I shift my consciousness away from where Kuro is trying to get some rest and smoothly slide into the controls of the body (a/n this is pure fiction ).
Haaaaaaah
I guess I'll just play the game...
Don't you dare. Look at the clock.
That evil brother of mine. Sh*t! It's chore time!
As if she was eavesdropping, the usual nurse, Amy, knocked on the clean, wooden door to my room.
"It's Chore Time! Please finish mopping the hallways in this section before heading to the cafeteria. Today's menu is! Lamb Tagine with Steamed Veggies and Apple Pie for desert!"
Uuuugh
Carrots
Phew.
Finally finished waxing all those hallways. Why do we have to do this? We're patients, aren't we? We PAY to be here!
Well, my inheritance pays...
Nevermind
KURO!!!
GET UP?
Out? Up? Is there even a word to describe the movement a consciousness makes when waking up? There isn't, is there?
Stop worrying about useless stuff. What now?
Let's play legacy!
Fine I guess. I don't really care.
I know you'll love it.
What do you know?
I am you. Remember?
While we have our little mental argument, I lift the lid of the (should I mention how amazingly smooth and shiny it is) capsule and slipped into its padded bed-like-thing.
Putting on the helmet inside the capsule, I settle into a comfortable position and say the opening command, "Legacy, Start!", like how I saw they do it on the Y**T*be videos.

We were caught by surprise when the dull view of the capsule walls was covered by a blinding white light and faded into a brand new scenery.
Waaaaah! Bright!
Blinding Hazard. They should seriously consider a warning.
Yeah right.
The VERY blinding white light faded away, replaced by a pure white room containing, well, nothing. Oh, wait. I stand corrected. In the middle appeared a, goddess?
"Why is that a question!? I'm a true goddess you know!"
Yeah but, You're wearing a...
Frog Costume...
Is this cosplay?
"NOOOO! Don't insult frogs! I am, Rane! The goddess of -"
"Frogs?"
"S-s-such a rude person! To cut off a divine being mid-sentence. Ahem. You are correct. I am the goddess of frogs."
Waaah
Such an unpopular god.
A new record on my list of lame jobs.
It's pretty interesting, though.
"It's not Lame!" She tried, and failed miserably at defending herself.
"Actually, I consider it pretty rude to read a person's thoughts, you know. It's and invasion of privacy." I smirked, staring into her eyes accusingly.
"E-eh? T-t-t-hat! I never thought about that. Um, I'm sorry. I won't do it anymore..." Stammered the frog goddess, her expression transforming into full on panick mode, a comical look.
And she bit the bait.
Pfft
This girl is hilarious
I wanna be friends with her.
Her reactions are way too funny, that facial expression.
Seeing as she bit the bait at record speed, I decided to push it a little.
"It's actually extremely rude to read someone's mind, you should have known." I b*llsh*ted. "What if I just happen to think about one of my secrets like my bank details or something? Do you know how bad that is? It could almost be considered breaking the law, you know? An invasion of privacy" Not that I know any law.

"Waaaah. I'm so sorry! W-w-what can I-i do to make it up to you? I promise I'll never do it again." She begged like a lost puppy, her emerald eyes tearing up.
This is way too funny.
Gyahahaha! Her e-expressions, the way she's so worried and naive, and the patchy frog suit. Too much! hahaha. My stomach! I give.
I know right! Bwahahahaha! She's way too funny to let go.
"Be my friend."
"Huh?" She looks at me blankly.
Gyahahahah! That clueless face! My stomach! Painkillers, please.
" I said: Be my Friend. You did tell me YOU would make it up to ME." I jab my finger at her accusingly, just for effects. "Or should I go around telling everyone about the frog goddess who invades everyone's privacy?" The poor frog's face instantly fell into despair. You could almost see black lines forming on her forehead.
Gyahahahaha! She an open book! That expression of despair! I.. Need ... An ambulance. My Stomach!
Bwahahaha. Her expressions are to comical! What is she? An anime character?
"Eh? Ah, um, uuuuh. I-i-i guess you S-should be proud to b-be my first and only friend. It's a great honour to be a friend of a divine being!"
"Eh? Thanks! Let's stay in contact ok?"
I flash her my best smile. I'm proud to say, I'm pretty handsome, with my fluffy, dirty blond hair and well-sculpted features. I'm pretty tall too, with fine muscles. If I had a good personality then I'd be the perfect boyfriend. Not that I'd want something that troublesome. I'd much rather spend that time and effort training a German Shepherd, those guys will never dump me and are pretty useful too, when they are trained to feed on humans. Ah, I was getting distracted again.
"Y-yeah, let's start character creation!" She says, all hyped up, holding her little fists up in the air. "This Is your current character, what would you like to change? I don't recommend changing the height and things too much or it will become difficult to become used to."
A hologram of my suddenly popped up in front of me with a lot of options surrounding it.
Ooooooh, this will take a while...
Hehehehehe, my perfectionist side is oozing out.
This will take a loooong while...

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

The White Room
A group of gamers are hired as guinea pigs to test a new VR system. None of them know what exactly to expect. Is the new system bing tested, or is it them? Are they just there for games, or is there a greater game being played? My first attempt at writing LitRPG. I I'm learning as I go and therefore will probably stumble over numerous cliches of the genre and writing in general. Definitely a work in progress.
