_________________________________________
Dylan has been acting really weird around you lately. He started to avoid you, for example he would leave a room when you entered, or even not hang out with his friends at all when someone told him you'd be there etc. You don't know what happened though - you used to hang out quite often due to having mutual friends, and there was never any problem. It wasn't like you were best friends, but you've always been nice to each other.
It certainly didn't help that you might have developed feelings for the young Canadian, so it hurt even more when he started acting like this.
Right now, you were at a party that was held after the draft, talking to Alex and Jack and, currently laughing at some stupid joke that Jack told you two.
When you eventually stopped laughing, you looked around the room. When your eyes found Dylan, you noticed that he's looking at you, but right after you made eye contact, he quickly looked down to the ground. You frowned a little before turning back to the two boys in front of you.
Y/n's pov:
"Hey guys, do you know what's up with Dylan?" I asked them, taking a sip of my drink.
"What do you mean? As far as I know he's fine." Jack answered, looking at me.
"Well, he's been avoiding me, you know? Like, he can't seem to stand being in the same room as me and he always turns away when I look at him. I really don't know what his problem is." I said, hoping the two players would at least have an idea about what could be wrong with their friend.
"Why do you care so much Y/n? If I stopped talking to you, I bet you'd be glad I finally stopped annoying you." Alex said smirking a little.

"I care because people usually like me, okay? And if they don't, I'd at least want to know the reason why." I said and looked in Dylan's direction, who was now talking to Cole.
As I was looking away, I missed the way Alex and Jack shared a quick glance before Jack started talking. "Well Y/n, maybe it's best if you just go and ask him yourself, don't you think?" I turned back to look at him, contemplating it for a minute before handing him my drink and nodding. I turned around and went right to the spot where Dylan and Cole were.
Dylan didn't notice me until I got to them, so he didn't have to run away. When he noticed me standing right in front of them, I could see him become uncomfortable.
"Cole, could you please excuse us for a minute? I need to talk to Dylan." I asked Cole but kept my eyes on Dylan.
"Well actually-" he started to protest, but immediately stopped himself, put his hands up in surrender and started backing away when he saw the glare I gave him.
When I looked back at Dylan, he was running his hand through his hair and looking anywhere but me.
"Why don't you like me?" I asked, looking right at his face. He quickly looked back at me, slight shock evident on his face.
"What?" "Why don't you like me, Dylan? You always avoid me and you don't want to have anything with me. What did I do?" I asked him with a hint of sadness in my voice.
"Oh my god Y/n, you didn't do anything. I'm sorry for acting like that. Trust me that I like you.. it's just.." he paused, trying to find the right words to say.
"Just what?" I urged him.
"I like you a little too much for your brother's liking." he said, avoiding my eyes.
"What do you mean?" I asked him. I was really confused right now.
"I mean what I say Y/n. I like you, and I'd love to ask you out. But Trevor doesn't want that, and I respect him." Dylan said, looking back into my eyes.

My eyes widened and anger started to rise in me. I excused myself before going to find my older brother in the crowd. When I finally found him, I walked right up to him.
"Hey Trevor, come into the kitchen with me. I need to talk to you." Trevor excused himself from whoever he was talking to and followed you into the kitchen that was now empty.
"'Sup sis?" Trevor asked, looking at you.
"Did you tell Dylan not to ask me out?"
I asked him, anger evident in my tone.
"What? Who-" he started but I cut him off.
"It's doesn't fucking matter who told me Trevor! Who the fuck gave you the right to decide about who I can and can't date, huh?" I asked in a slightly raised voice but not yelling, not wanting to attract too much attention.
"Y/n calm down, okay! You know I don't want you to date hockey players! I know how some of us are and I don't want you to get hurt. I'm just looking out for you, as a big brother should, okay?" he defended himself.
I sighed and looked around before looking back at him.
"Look Trevor, I really appreciate that you care about me and you don't want me to get hurt. But I think it's time for me to decide who I will and won't date. I'm 17, you know? Besides, do you really think Dylan would hurt me? He's a good guy Trevor, and you know that." I told him, hoping to make him change his mind. He may not have any say in my love life, but I still wouldn't want to go against him.
He sighed and dragged his hand over his face before speaking again.
"Okay. Okay, you can go out with him. But tell him that if he ever hurts you, I'm going to make sure he'll never be able to play hockey again, okay?" he said with a light smile. I cheered and ran up to him to give him a hug.
"Thank you thank you thank you. I love you bro. You're the best." I said happily after I pulled away from the hug.
"Yeah yeah I know. Now go find Dylan. But I have one rule - no PDA in front of me, okay? Or I'll change my mind again." he said and I laughed before smiling at him and running out of the kitchen to find Dylan.
I found him in the same spot I left him in and immediately walked up to him. When he saw me, he looked at me a little nervously and opened his mouth to talk.
"Y/n, where-" he started but I cut him off by placing a small kiss on his cheek. When I pulled away, he looked completely stunned.
"I talked to Trevor and he said it's okay if you ask me out. If you want to that is." I smiled up at the taller boy. At that, his face lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Are you serious?" he asked, grinning down at me. I nodded my head, grin breaking out on my face as well.
"Well then, Y/n, would you do me the honor of going on a date with me?" he asked, taking one of my hands into his.
"Yes!" I answered excitedly and threw my arms around his neck, hugging him. He laughed before wrapping his arms around my body.
"You don't even know how long I've wanted to do this for." he said into my ear so I could hear him over the music and people chatting.
"You don't even know how long I've wanted you to do this for." I said back to him without pulling away from the hug, wanting to stay there as long as I could.

I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)

I Am King: Book One (fourth draft)
In the distant land of Hattan, 10-year-old Prince Beaumont remains in hiding awaiting the day he becomes a man to reclaim the crown stolen from his family. His father King Bohemond and his mother Queen Renata were killed by the usurper Rancine, who is the current ruler of his home in the Middle Islands. Beaumont left the Middle Islands as a baby and everything he knows of his home is from stories and books. All that changes when a stranger from the Middle Islands, a woman named Nasila, arrives to inform him that Rancince has learned of his location and he is no longer safe. In order to protect the home he has grown to love, Beau must travel out of Hattan and journey to the Middle Islands to seek safety among people loyal to his father that he has never met. He must put his trust in Nasila and a hired warrior named Gavin with questionable motivations. He is afraid and unprepared to take the crown, but at least his cousin Julius is with on this harrowing journey fraught with assassins, wild mythical beast, black magic, and demons. His cousin is the only person he can truly trust, but he must take a chance and put his life in the hands of others if he plans to survive. ***This is the first long-length writing I have ever undertaken, and I wish to get some critical feedback. I am not professionally trained as a writer but I have tried my best to teach myself and make the chapters as clean as possible. I believe I have reached a point where my limited skills cannot improve the work or make any more corrections. It is very difficult to show this work, but if I do not, I fear I will never improve and learn. So here it is. To anyone who lends the time to read all of this and any of my chapters. Thank you.

[Archive] Legend of the Nameless Hero
A WhiteSamurai original Web Novel There are always the mysterious tales of heroes, those who fight against the Demons, who fight for justice and those who head mighty quests against tyranny. Heroes that are born to destiny, Heroes that are forged through tragedy, and Heroes that are brought to the world in times of great peril and strife. Not all true Heroes are wanted or beloved, but all life understands, that throughout all time and space, for those who truly stand as Heroes, they never need to be called one. The sands of time are the only true judge for those who journey upon the true path, the only one they will ever need. This is the tale, no, the Legend, the Legend of the one who throughout all time, would forever be, the First Hero. This is Their story, a story of true hardship, of a sorrow greater than any other that would stand as a symbol of inspiration no matter the test of time. A tale of darkness, a true curse, an impending evil hidden beyond the horizons that threatened the very future of existence. This is the tale, of one of the few great figures, who, in the face of true evil, continued to stand. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :Disclaimer: _______________________________________________________________ . . . All Chapters are subject to sudden revision, scrapping, or complete removal from the canonical storyline. The author of "Legend of the Nameless Hero" uses RoyalRoad as a method of experimentation with genre's and writing styles for Fantasy-style works for the sake of eventual publication. The end result isn't to release perfect chapters on RoyalRoadl, but eventually develop the story as intended using the best material to produce the highest quality work. The best mentality when reading works from WhiteSamurai is to see it as the ability to read and review pre-release transcripts or "Rough Copies" before publication. Viewer discretion and maturity are both requested and required. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :About: _______________________________________________________________ . . . This story follows direct character point of views along with an intentional third person narrative to explain to the readers what the characters won't. (I don't use my characters to go give extensive explanations for every last thing like EVERYTHING DOES) This tale shall encompass the life of the Hero from the moment she is summoned into the Kingdom of Kremor, to the Legendary Final Clash. This isn't your run of the mill hack and slash raise an army and conquer, I don't follow that bandwagon. Real life holds politics, intrigue, economics, structure, populations, civil opinions, history, psychology, heart, suffering, wonder, advancement, curiosity, ambition, and so many more things that would lead to me hitting some character limit. I refuse to take the same route that others use by simply ignoring these factors, my worlds, my stories, are as real as they get. There's no plot armor here, if someone screws up, they've screwed up and there's no magical sword in a well for them. I write in 'Seasons' not 'Books' as many often do, these are generally, not always, hundreds of chapters long, though as I have yet to finish a season, the average length is in the air. I go by an ideal of what I call 'Universal Lore' which includes the policy that things that exist within the story don't follow the rule where the Protagonist needs to be there so that it will happen. There will be some things that will happen, and the hero, and sometimes the reader, won't know happened until they enter a place, or news gets to them. A person needs to be in the right place at the right time, I hate plot holes and meta characters above all else... For my works, comments are practically demanded as reactions, thoughts, and various viewpoints are like sweet fuel to my writing spirit. Reviews are highly accepted and appreciated, BUT ONLY IF THEY ARE EDUCATED AND THOROUGHLY EXPLAINED. Those that throw down a low rating ARE HIGHLY REQUESTED to extensively detail and explain their viewpoints on the work. They should also be willing to come back to the work at a later date if messaged by the Author, Me, due to issues they mentioned being taken care of. I'm never against scrapping a chapter or rewriting several paragraphs if there are character or story discrepancies. I want the highest quality work possible, and every comment, every review, are tools for me to use to further that goal. . . . Enjoy the work. ~White Status: (Ongoing)
