《Sticks and Stones • Spideypool ✓》chapter 6

Peter passed me in the hall. I wave at him and say "hey kiddo!" He ignored me. The kid went into his room without a word and slammed his door shut.
I make my way into the kitchen where Tony sat head in his hands. Steve was behind him, rubbing his back and whispering in his ears.
"What's up with the kid?" Tony swirls around. He looked pissed. "None of your concern Barton." He snapped. Jeez what the hell happen here. "Steve. Care to tell me why Tony is being more of a dick than usual?" Steve looked at me with a weak smile, soon replaced by a frown. "Peter got into a fight at school." He stated.
Poor kid. He has told me about Flash. He didn't want his Dads finding out, but I guess they know now. "Want me to talk to him?" Tony looked at me desperately. "Please."
I nodded and headed back down the corridor. I stopped outside Peter's room and knocked on the door. A grumble came from within. "Peter it's me, Uncle Clint. Wanna talk buddy." After a moment the door clicked and slowly opened.
I was greeted by a slightly red, tear stained face. He steps back allowing me into his room. I enter and sit on his bed. I pat the space next to me. Peter joins me, resting his head on my shoulder.
"What happened with Flash?" I say, genuinely concerned for this kid. He means a lot to me.
"He caught me as I was leaving school. He punched me in the stomach first. Then tackled me to the ground. The others started kicking me, Flash went for the head." He gestured to a large bruise forming on the side of his face. "I tried getting up, but they had me pinned. But then a-" he cut himself off. His face went slightly pink.

"What happened Peter?" I say, curious.
"The new guy punched Flash in the face." I couldn't help but laugh. Peter had told me about this new guy the first day he met him. I gently poke his side and he giggles.
"The new guy huh? What's his name?" Peter laughs properly at that.
"Wade." He said, with an almost lustful tone. I chuckle at the lovestruck teen. I remember that feeling.
"You should talk to him tomorrow." Peter looked at me with wide eyes. "Are you kidding. He probably hates me."
"Peter he punched a guy for you."
"Yeah and that's probably got him suspended. He has only just got here and because of me he will be in trouble." I mean the kid does have a point. But I am not going to let him give up on a cute ass boy.
"Peter-" I say smiling. "Just talk to him."
"Okay. I will talk to him." He says, exasperated. I nod triumphantly before getting up. I head for the door. Before leaving, I look at Peter and say, "You know who else you should talk to. Your dad."
Without giving him time to answer me, I leave, shutting the door behind me.
Am I the best uncle or what!

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.

The Rowan Fox, Tail 1: The Missing Children
Deep in the Maple Woods sits a mountain of old. Humans have claimed it and today a city called Redlog covers it from peak to foot. Meet Josei, one of many medicine makers living in the city of red roofs. Hers is the start of many tales, home to a very special fox. Like foxes often do, this one finds himself plenty of trouble. (Thought I would be gone forever did you? I'm back again! This time with a book that actually has an ending. I know because I've written it. I will be editing each chapter then releasing it here as they're done, probably once or twice a week. It's a shorter tale than what I've written before but that was the goal from the start. I really need to learn how to finish a story so this was a big accomplishment for me. I'll be writing The Rowan Fox in several parts instead, short but hopefully sweet.) (This story is a combination of some of my favorite things: folktales, foxes, ancient forests, and feel good slice of life. I hope you like it!)
