《The Exciting Arrival》Chapter 5: Meeting the Queen (part 2)
Advertisement
Delightful: Yaysies! A visitor!
The cheerful ruler shook Empathy's hand.
Delightful: Welcome to Jollywood, I'm the ruler of the kingdom, Queen Delightful!
Then, she picked Starchy up from the floor and introduced him to the young civilian.
Delightful: And this is my loyal assistant, Lord Starchbottom.
Starchy: (points to the 7D) They call me Starchy.
The young adult bowed down to the queen.
Empathy: Great pleasure to meet you and Corn Starch, your highness.
The queen giggled at the nickname that Empathy gave Starchy.
Starchy: Don't call me that.
Sneezy: Although we only met her a couple minutes ago, she's actually really ni- a-a-ACHOOO!!!!
Empathy offered a hankie to the adorable sneezer, which he gladly accepted.
Sneezy: (sniffs) Thanks, Em.
Empathy: Don't mention it, Sneeze-man.
Sleepy: Like what Sneezy was gonna say, she's a very nice person.
Dopey: (whistles in agreement)
The lovable whistler showed Empathy's portrait with each of the dwarves' signatures on it to the queen and Starchy.
Bashful: She's also a huge fan of us!
Happy: And she's a wonderful singer, which I would be glad enough to play another tune for you to perform!
Empathy: Most certainly!
Happy grabbed out his guitar and started jamming on it once again.
Empathy: 🎵When you're rife with devastation, there's a simple explanation: you're a toymaker's creation trapped inside a crystal ball, and whichever way he tilts it know that we must be resilient. We won't let them break our spirits as we sing our silly song! When I was a little kiddie, a scurrying blaze overtook my city so they shipped me off to the orphanage, said, "ditch those roots if you wanna fit in". So I dug one thousand holes and cut a rug with orphan foals, now memories are blurred, and their faces are obscured but I still know the words to this song! When you've bungled all your bangles and your loved ones have been mangled, listen to the jingle jangle of my gypsy tambourine, 'cause these chords are hypnotizing and the whole world's harmonizing. So please, children, stop your crying and just sing along with me!🎵

My precious dwarfskies, along with Starchy and the queen, danced along to the song and Bowtie and Flowerpot both square danced together .
Grumpy: She's better at singing than I thought!
Doc: I'm just glad you don't hate it!
Empathy: 🎵When I was a little kiddie, a scurrying blaze overtook my city so they shipped me off to the orphanage, said, "ditch those roots if you wanna fit in".

So please, children, stop your crying and just sing along with me!🎵
The 7D, Queen D and Starchy all applauded for Empathy and thought that she was very talented at singing.
Delightful: Empathy, how would you like to perform in Jollywood's next big Jollypalooza concert?
Empathy: Jollypalooza? I'd love to be part of it, you're majesty! When is it?
Delightful: It's just in a week from now.
Empathy: Wait, really?
The queen nodded and Empathy understood her.
Empathy: Well, in that case... AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
The young adult ran out of the castle quick as a flash .
Sleepy: Should we go after her?
Bashful: Yep, I think we should.
Then, the 7D rushed out of the castle and went after Empathy.
Starchy: What was that all about?
Delightful: (shrugs)

Project Looking Glass: Freelancer
When a game can set you up for life, a man with a talent for analysis gambles his future for a new lease on life. While traveling on the colony ship Pioneer Michael Wolfe and many others are logged into Project Looking Glass, a fully immersive Virtual Reality MMORPG set on the world they are traveling to. At the end of the journey all players will be permitted to keep the land they hold in the game as their homestead for the new colony. Michael Wolfe must put away the books of myth and folklore and push himself to his limit to achieve the start to his new life. Updates will come by chapter as I write them, so don't count on a solid release schedule (though I will try for a few chapters each week). Edit advice is always welcome, but please keep it polite. ((Cover is just a working cover until I can get some decent artwork)) Be advised that I am currently focusing on Hero's Call. Project Freelancer will continue/be rewritten in parts when I have finished the story arc I intend for Hero's Call.

Celestial Botany
Erica Moore was offered the chance of staying herself during her next life, but decided that an unknown cost was too high a price to pay. In trying to get some peace from Faustian bargains, she accidentally got herself stuck outside the cycle of reincarnation. Aided by an eccentric gardener-goddess and armed with lifetime of stories, Erica will have to earn each new life. She will need to navigate identity as each new life changes her, and if she wants an overpowered reincarnator cheat ability, she will need to build it herself. The concept for this story was influenced by Vladerag’s The Many Lives of Cadence Lee, QuietValerie’s Ryn of Avonside, and the relentless stream of new worlds that my brain dumps on me. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for reading!
