《Dreamnotfound Fluff》27

A/N: Someone requested a chapter featuring Drista so here you go :>
George sat on the couch, bored and scrolling on his phone. Suddenly, a thought occurred to him, and he sat up.
"You said... Drista is visiting today, right?" He asked.
"Yeah. She's coming over in," Dream glanced at his watch, "two hours."
"Oh." George was silent for a moment. "What's her real name?"
"Drista." Dream replied without a moment of hesitation.
"Like, her real real name."
"Drista."
George facepalmed. "So, I'm guessing she insisted for you to tell me to call her Drista?"
"Her name is Drista, what are you talking about?" Dream put down his phone, looking at George as though he was crazy or making stuff up.
George frowned at Dream. Am I missing something?
He decided to let the matter go, not wanting to argue with Dream about something as silly as that, but the question still lingered at the back of his mind. After two hours, Drista arrived, as Dream told him, and George resolved to ask her personally, when Dream wasn't around.
Drista swaggered in with her usual confident personality, and plopped onto their couch as though she had just arrived at her own home, without waiting for a welcome.
"Hello, Dream." Drista yawned. "Nice couch. Could be better."
"What do you mean, you've been here at least twice." Dream looked at Drista oddly.
Drista shrugged casually. "Can't take a compliment?" She didn't wait for Dream to answer. "That's fine. Your couch absolutely sucks, and I want to just leave, it's that bad."
She stood up, and George laughed. "Nice one."
Dream whined at George. "You're supposed to be on my side, George."
In response, George stuck his tongue out at Dream. Drista made a face.

"Ew, look at you two lovebirds. There's a child in sight."
"So you finally admit you're a child?" Dream raised an eyebrow at Drista, who had sprawled back on the couch again.
"What? You're a child? Got it, I'll tell Mom and I'm taking over the house. Give me a moment." She replied, standing up and beginning to walk towards the door. Dream walked over to intercept her, blocking the door, to which Drista rolled her eyes and flopped back onto the couch.
George shook his head, chuckling. "I think I like this sibling better."
Dream pouted, making his way over to George, and giving him a chaste kiss on the cheek, grabbing his arm.
"I thought you loved me."
Drista rolled her eyes, folding her arms and turning away. "PDA!" She shouted behind her back before walking into the kitchen. "I'm going to go get some food, Mom'll be coming soon."
"Figures, I didn't think that she would be able to get here on her own. She's 14 or something, right?" George commented.
"Yeah. I'm gonna go greet my mom. I'll be right back; don't burn down the house or trigger Drista to. You never know what she'll do." Dream planted one last kiss on George's cheek and left.
"That's true." George chuckled. He turned to the kitchen, realizing that he now had a chance to talk to Drista in private. He stuck his head through the door, watching Drista rummage through the cabinets.
"What's up?" Drista said without looking at George.
"Nothing much. I just wanted to ask, what's your real name?"
"Drista." She replied, taking out the box of Pop-Tarts Dream had hidden away.
"What's your actual name?" George insisted. "Also, you might not want to eat those. Last time I tried, Dream tackled me and swore not to give me kisses for the next week. He gave in though, I'm too irresistible."

Drista rolled her eyes, closing the cabinet door. "If he tries to tackle me, I'll knee him in the balls or get out the iron door, and I would absolutely not care if he didn't give me kisses. In fact, I'd not eat the Pop-Tarts for him to not give me kisses. Anyways, my actual real name is Drista." She responded, opening a bag and stuffing one in her mouth after finishing her rant.
George frowned at Drista. "Okay?" He turned around when he heard the door opening, and Drista quickly dropped the wrapper she was holding, shoving it into George's arms and sprinting off through the other door.
"You-"
Dream walked into the kitchen, his mother following behind him, and when his gaze landed on George, he raised his eyebrows.
"George. What did I say about eating the Pop-Tarts?"
"Drista! She ate one, and then when she heard you coming she just shoved the box into my arms!"
"Sure she did." Dream said, smirking. Dream's mother rolled her eyes from behind him.
"He used to bug me to buy them all the time when he was little. I have no idea how he developed such an obsession, but I'm taking him to rehab as soon as I can." She commented. From behind Dream's mother, Drista strolled in casually, as though she had been there the entire time.
"George." Dream recaptured his attention. "What did I say about eating the Pop-Tarts?"
"Well, last time I did, you tackled me and claimed you wouldn't kiss me for a week. You failed, though." George answered, setting the box down onto the table.
"So, surely this time the punishment ought to be worse, then." Dream continued, completely ignoring the last sentence.
"Uh huh." George cocked an eyebrow. "A worse punishment that you'll surely fail as well."
"Kinky." Drista cut in, and Dream's mother rolled her eyes, which snapped George back to his senses, remembering that Dream's mother was watching them.
"We can talk about this later, George. But don't expect to get off the hook."
"Are you the submissive?" Drista asked casually, and Dream's mother choked, coughing as her cheeks flamed pink, which was nothing compared to the beet-red shade that George's face turned.
"No." George answered indignantly.
"Sure."
After an hour of the four of them conversing, which mainly consisted of Dream's mother insisting that Dream to stay safe and healthy and prying into his daily habits (including his sex life), Drista jumping in with some off-the-cuff remarks, and both siblings teasing George, Dream and George waved Drista and Dream's mother off. Dream shut the door behind them, and turned to George.
"So about that punishment."

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
