"Hi, Lo-Lo~!"
"Ah, Remus." Logan mumbled, not taking his eyes away from his computer.
It had been about a week since Janus and Roman's date, and Remus had been informed by Janus that they were having another one in a couple of days.
"Did you need something?" Logan asked, glancing over at him briefly before snapping his eyes back to the screen.
"Yeah," Remus hummed, plopping down on Logan's bed. "Whatcha working on?"
"I'm proofreading Roman's script for the next skit." Logan murmured.
"Proofreading? What's that?"
"You're joking, correct?" Logan rose a brow, looking over at him. Remus tilted his head, but didn't reply. "You seriously don't know what proofreading is?"
"Well, sorry." Remus snorted. "Enlighten me, Wise Guy. What is proofreading?"
"To put it simply," Logan sighed, looking back at the computer. Remus walked over to Logan, and looked at the computer over his shoulder. "I'm checking for any errors in Roman's transcript."
"Errors?"
"Grammatical errors, logical errors, things of that calibre." Logan mumbled, typing something. "If I spot one, I fix it. It's as simple as that."
"Oh! Like when I said I wanted to deep throat the Eiffel Tower and you said 'that is not physically possible' all serious like!" Remus chirped.
"Exactly like that." Logan hummed, nodding slightly. He finished typing, and spun his chair around to face Remus. "So, what can I do for you?"
"So, remember when I asked you about a plan for splitting a couple up?" Remus smirked. "I have a little update on that."
"Oh joy." Logan grumbled. "And what is it?"
"Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that someone tried to stop you from doing this plan. What would you do?" Remus asked.

"Stop me? Explain how they would go about doing that." Logan rubbed his chin, and Remus could tell he was thinking. "Are they physically trying to stop me, or preventing my plan?"
"The latter."
"I would continue with my plan, paying them no mind." Logan shrugged, crossing his arms. Remus rose a brow, tilting his head.
"That's not what I expected. Why would you do that?" Remus rose a brow.
"As long as I can outsmart them, or finish my plan before they can do any real harm, they won't be of any harm." Logan turned back to his computer. "Is that all?"
"Outsmart them, huh?" Remus mumbled, crossing his arms. "Yeah, I think that's all. Thanks Lo-Lo!"
"You are welcome." Logan nodded, beginning to type something. Just as Remus was about to sink out, Logan suddenly turned back to him. "Oh, Remus! Before you leave..." He trailed off, pursing his lips.
"...yes?" Remus asked, raising a brow.
"Actually, nevermind." Logan shook his head, turning back to his computer. "Have a nice day, Remus."
"I'll try not to!" Remus chirped, sinking out.

"Roman!"
Roman whipped around, spotting Virgil walking towards him. "Hmm? What is it, Hot Topic?"
"Roman, there's something I have to tell you." Virgil told him, crossing his arms. "It's about Remus."
"My brother?" Roman asked, giving Virgil his full attention. "Is he alright? Did something happen?"
"He's fine." Virgil shook his head.
"Then can it wait? I have to get ready for my date--" Roman slapped a hand over his mouth. "Uh, I mean--"
"Chill, I already know." Virgil rolled his eyes. "And speaking of which, Remus--"
"Wait, what? Who told you?" Roman asked, furrowing his brow. "Was it Janus? I thought he wanted to keep it a secret?"

"No, I--it doesn't matter!" Virgil crossed his arms. "Listen, Remus has--"
"I'm sorry, Virgil. I really must be going." Roman shot him an apologetic smile.
"But--Roman--"
"Sorry!" Roman briskly walked away, causing Virgil to frown.
Virgil huffed, crossing his arms.

"Did you talk to him?" Patton asked the second Virgil popped into the common room.
"I tried to." Virgil grumbled, slumping onto the couch next to Patton. "He kept interrupting me."
"Aww, that's alright. We can tell him later." Patton hummed, leaning his head against Virgil's chest.
"That's what you said last time." Virgil frowned. "And the time before that."
"It's a wonder how Roman manages to stay so busy."
"I'm tired of counting on 'later,' Pat. Roman deserves to know now. It's his relationship!" Virgil sighed.
"I know, Virge. But if Roman has somewhere else to be, then we can't stop him." Patton sighed. "Just relax. It'll all turn out fine."
"Relax? You're aware of who you're talking to, yes?" Virgil asked. Patton giggled, and Virgil couldn't help a fond smile from finding its way to his face. "Ugh, fine. You're lucky you're cute."
"That's the spirit, Vee! Now, let's go stop Remus!"
---
"Perfect." Roman sighed, looking at his creation.
He was stood in the center of a large, elegant ballroom. Aside from Roman, no one else was present.
He had provided a chocolate fountain (making sure to taste test the hell out of it.) He wanted to make up for the last date, it had been eating him alive.
"Roman?"
He turned around, spotting Janus standing there. He looked nervous, but happy to be there.
"Hey!" Roman chirped, walking over. "I remember you told me once that you learned ballroom dancing." Roman smiled.
"No way! We're going to--" Janus smiled brightly, and Roman couldn't help but grin too.
"Yup! I know you don't like crowded spaces, so it'll be just the two of us." Roman offered Janus a hand. "So, may I have this dance?"
"You may." Janus chuckled, taking his hand.
Neither noticed Remus, hiding underneath the table with the food on it.

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***

Baby boy
Just so you aren't confused I wrote this book directly from the movie and it's just what I wanted to happen or thought would happen instead of what really happened. DO NOT come to my comments telling me it's like the movie cause I know that's the whole point. I wanted the movie to go different in some parts so I made a book on it.
