《Heart Of Stone》Chapter 2
Advertisement
It was early morning; the whole group was up and eating an average breakfast of fruits and dried meat. After they ate, the group got ready to steal valuables and headed out. They were on the streets with officers about the danger of being caught an all-time high. Everyone scattered, stealthily grabbing anything valuable from unsuspecting people, and Jasper tried his hardest to keep up, the only thought in my mind was the big heist.
As he got distracted from these thoughts, he bumped into an officer, mumbling a quick apology as he speeds walks away. The officer stared at the back of the kid that bumped into him, a weird feeling overcoming him, and the officer keeps in mind to watch out for him in the future.
Jasper bites his lip as he walks away, almost drawing blood, and cursing himself, ‘Shit! That guy saw me! I need to lay low for a while, keep away from hot spots for now.’
The group of thieves gathered back together at a remote abandoned building, going over the things they stole and, of course, boasting about it. Everyone except Jasper, he was sitting there quietly with his head down and eyebrows furrowed in concerned. One of the guys noticed this, scooting closer to him and wrapping an arm around the other. The guy was a skinny, pale man with a mop of messy, spiky dirty blonde hair, a rat-like face, and beady black eyes. He stares at Jasper with an ever-present sly grin on his face, leaning in close,
“What’s wrong, Jazzy? Didn’t get a big haul like us?” Jasper rolls eyes as the other thief chuckles, shoving the arm off,
“It’s nothing, leave it.” The rat-looking guy shakes his head, giving him a pointed look,
“Yeah, right, I’ve known you since you were a little kid. I would know when something was wrong.” He sighs heavily, still staring at the ground,

“One of the officers saw me. I don’t know if he will remember me, but I messed up big time.” The other man’s eyes go wide, sitting up straight as a board, and he shouts,
“You got caught! What?!” Jasper immediately starts aggressively, shushing him, looking panicked towards the boss and the other man to see if they heard them and whispers,
“Shut up, Tim! I just bumped into him, not as I gave him a good look at me or anything.” Tim calms down a little, taking a deep breath with his palm pressed against his sweaty forehead,
“This is bad! Really, bad. What if the officers find you? O-or finds out you’re submissive.” He rolls his eyes again at that,
“Stop freaking out. If I keep my head down for a few days, everything should be fine.” Tim sighs, looking at Jasper uncertainly,
“Iii don’t know about this, it still seems like we could get in trouble.” He was about to say something when the boss called them over, he clears his throat then addresses the rest of the group,
“We need to go over the plan before the big heist, meet me in my ‘office’.”
Everyone nods, filling into the office, and once again, Jasper takes a seat while the others stand. Max takes place on his chair, taking out a map of the manor that will host the party and lays it down on his desk,
“The party will be taking place mainly here.’, he points at the ballroom on the map.
“So, the rest of the building will be empty except for a few guards on watch and some stragglers, so stay alert and for god’s sake keep quiet. Everyone understand?”
There was a chorus of yesses and a grunt from this big, muscled dark-skinned man who was also slightly chubby. He was bald and had a rounded rectangular head with small, round blue eyes near around a short, rectangular nose.

“Good, I will give each of you an individual path to follow. Get as many valuables you can and then get out of there.”
Jasper listens carefully, checking things over in his mind. After a few more points have been gone over the boss dismisses everyone, he heads to the one quiet place where he can think. Once Jasper is there, he sits on the ledge of a big window, mind lost in thought, and he stares out of the window, ‘This is it, it’s happening. The plan is all set; all I need to do now is not screw up again.’ He could already feel the anticipation building up in him, ready to explode.

Polyrhythm Time -- A Bard's Tail
Have you ever met someone who loves what they do so much that they'll skip sleep, food, love and safety to pursue it? What happens if that kind of person encounters a different dimension, yet holds on to their love of music, and specifically of rock drumming.When the world ended at the end of 2057, Kevin Snackenbridge slept through it. He'd been drumming all night. tl;dr-- System eats world -- Monsters and magic ---- LitRpg -- Practice, not levels and stats ---- MC Bard -- support class -- low power ---- MC chooses music over survival skills --tl;dr Kevin trips into the Internal Strength Dimension where Thaumaturgy is king. With the help of a talking plant and several vicious monkeys he learns that the rule is "Change or die." Kevin changes, but remains firmly a drummer/Bard in this high fantasy setting. This is Kevin's adventure, and that of the friends he meets. Kevin has the soul of a real musician. He loves music, specifically rhythm and drumming, and would give his left nut if it would help him drum better. He's a rock drummer, and his language is that of a rock drummer: slanged, duded, and frequently laced with profanity. He focuses on music, and makes decisions that even the author doesn't approve of. However, that means all his decisions are Kevin's decisions, not those of a system-optimizing power-gamer. There's points (All of Arc 2) where he wanders aimlessly. Goals seem foreign to him at points. What would you do if you were a musician, and the world fell apart and you no longer had an audience or band-mates. You'd be kinda lost. Kevin is. Arc 2 is a lot of Kevin not knowing what to do, going with the flow, and not being articulate enough to know that he doesn't know what to do. 1. Chapters start short near 500 words, and grow to 12-1500 by ch.100 2. Chapters daily

Alive
At the center of a now unmoving battlefield the remains of a corpse rose from the others. A pile of bones held together by unknown means looked over the cadaver covered soil into the starry night.

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.
