>[successful moneybags CEO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Robert Smith was a successful moneybags CEO. He had loads of money. His personal wealth was 3 billion? Whatever. Today Robert Smith was chillaxing in his office doing CEO things like swirling around on a spinny office chair.
His Whatsapp had a notification. Hey lol do you see this? Sent in the group chat was a video of his old classmate Joseph King declaring he was going to run for president.
Robert did not know how to react. His entire life did not prepare him for this totally unrealistic thing happening. And yet, like a lot of things this year, the unrealstic had happened. He did not know how to react to Joe's totally idealstic thinking that "Hey, if I go on the color box and yell about being a president I'll become president!"
The video continued playing on his phone. Joseph was talking about how all the other candidates had some dirty laundry and only he who just recently turned 35 had absolutely no scandals so everyone should vote for him. Joseph continued talking about how he had lived among the residents of USA and like most of USA he believed that the world has gone to shit but seriously guys if you just vote for me I guarantee I can do something do not believe that you have no power to change the world -
Robert felt that this was completely bullshit. He went online and searched for this exact video, believing that it would have already been taken down, but hey! it was still there, racking up views like crazy and there were dislikes and likes and people commenting on how dumb this guy must be and how no one would ever vote for him-
Robert frowned
- but also comments on how... they... would... vote for Joseph?? He wasn't seeing this wrongly, was he? There were actual people, commenting on how they would vote for Joseph? Utterly... unrealistic.... . . . . .

Then, for no rhyme or reason, Robert Smith thought back to how, once, he went to watch Hamilton. He recalled Washington in his office.
History has its eyes on you.
Robert felt as if the Phantom Theives had just stole his heart. What could he say to the next generation? That they saw the world go to shit and just watched as it crashed and burned and said "meh" apathetically? What the hell? The children need a better world! Not that he wanted to ever have any children but
Histoy has its eyes on you.
If he had a time machine. and went back to any time, any thing he did would have a butterfly effect on the present.
Anything he did now in the present would have a butterfly effect on the future.
If he-
If he just did something-
He called the WordPress CEO. "Hello, yes, I would like to buy Tumblr, name your price."
And silhouetted against the glass windows of his office, Robert Smith smiled a smile that wasn't a smile.

They aren't content with sharing, and will do absolutely anything to stop Gareth from becoming who he was destinied to be.

Small Pond
In a world without systems, levels, or any standard power levels, Faust is a naturally skeptical person who always asks questions first and accepts after he gets confirmation. A lot of it. With some information unknown to the reader, represented as [?], Faust is left to discover who kidnapped him, where he is, if magic exists, and what to do while the reader silently observes him. And as for the YOU dear reader, I'll need your help choosing some things... Small Pond isn't meant to be a high-paced action light novel, but instead, there's a greater focus on world and character building in order to create a greater narrative. Expect the unexpected in this story ;) The release schedule will be paused, for now, I'm going to try and spend some time rethinking the intro and work on school.

The Czarina's Buccaneer
RELEASES EVERY MONDAY AT 18:30 CST ----- After suffering the torments of slavery, the destruction of his nation, and the massacre of his band of brothers, Rodion Kazansky craves revenge and yearns for the freedom owed to him as a proud Cossack. A lost horse and a chance meeting with the Catherine the Great set him off on a journey that will take him from the steppes of the Crimea to the beaches of the Gold Coast of Africa and back again. There he will face British slavers, pirates, and the ghosts of his past to become the bane of his enemies as the Czarina's Buccaneer. ----- DISCLAIMER: This novel acknowledges the fact that the Cossacks, and the Ukrainian people by extension, are unique and not simply a "different variety of Russians." The main character views the Russians as "moskal foreigners" and does not see himself as one. This also acknowledges the fact that the czarina deprived many of the Cossacks of their freedom, something that the main character resents.
