《My Secret Boyfriend》8
Advertisement
(Y/N) decided to stay home for the Holidays with the rest of her siblings. it was now the weekend, the second Hogsmeade trip before the term ends.
she watched the snow fall with Ron and Hermione at the Shrieking Shack, layers of clothing covering their skin. the white snow fell on top of them, coating their hair.
"it's meant to be the most haunted building in Britain. did i mention that?" Hermione questioned.
"twice." the twins answered.
"should we move a bit closer?"
"sure." (Y/N) shrugged. the three moved a step forward.
"i think it's fine from here." Ron said.
"perfect." Hermione responded.
"well, well. look who's here. you three shopping for your dream home? seems a bit too grand for you, Weaselbees. don't your family all sleep in one room?"
"shut your mouth, Malfoy." Ron snapped.
(Y/N) clenched her jaw.
"now, that's not very friendly. boys, i think it's time we teach Weaselbee to respect his superiors." Malfoy grinned.
without giving it a second thought, (Y/N) walked up to the blond boy and slapped his right cheek. Hermione gasped, and the boys dropped their jaws.
"don't you ever think you're superior to someone, Malfoy." (Y/N) spat, pushing Crabbe and Pike out of the way and storming off.
Hermione was giggling next to Ron, who had a proud smile on his face.
"how dare you laugh, you filthy little mudblood." Draco said fuming.
(Y/N) walked through Hogsmeade angrily, hot tears spilling from her eyes. she bumped into someone, just as she was about to apologize she heard their voices speak.
"what's wrong, little sister?" Fred and George asked concerned, pulling her behind a shop.
"it's Malfoy. i'm just so tired of his behavior." (Y/N) answered, wiping away the tear streaks on her face.
"don't give him the time of day, (Y/N). he doesn't deserve you." Fred said, rubbing her shoulder.
"or your precious time. just ignore him, i reckon that'll piss him off more." George joked, causing (Y/N) to crack a smile.
"thanks." she sighed, pulling her big brothers in for a hug.
"i love you guys."
"we love you too."

The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.

The Ingress Estate
Jonathon Eucole. Soldier. Scholar. Now an Initiate, the dedication without dedication, he finds himself both prisoner and master of an arcane edifice, the Ingress Estate, which can neither be escaped, nor controlled; only diverted, maintained, and pacified. This is a gothic fantasy story, set in a world in which gods and the afterlife are not only real and known, but were both established in living memory of some of the inhabitants after millennia of arcane warfare with the being who constructed the mundane reality the humans occupy. But this isn't the story of those who colonized the afterlife at the cost of their own humanity, but a somewhat more ordinary man, in somewhat extraordinary circumstances. This is also a LitRPG-lite, which means there's a system of sorts, fragments of which can be observed through Jonathon's eyes. Don't expect level-up screens, or statistics, or indeed numbers much at all, beyond those the inhabitants of the world itself apply to understanding their own reality. It pretty much doesn't matter to the story, I mention it so those who don't want to read LitRPG at all can successfully avoid it here. I don't have any particular plan here, just some ideas inherent in the genre. This is a character concept I toyed with some years ago; an old man, bright of mind but weighed down into apathy, both by his past and his responsibilities for a terrible estate that cannot be left without stewardship. Don't expect any kind of overarching plot or story, because that's really not what this is about. Also don't expect much dialogue. Or character development. Or much of anything, really, because I've planned nothing in the way of an actual book, here. Other relevant information, if you've read this far for some reason: The MC isn't super-powerful to begin with, and probably never will be. He's a veteran with some useful skills, and the insight on how to use them, so can deal with the world's ordinary threats reasonably well, but not too much beyond that. --- Currently on hiatus, as currently the story has a rather poor ratio of effort-to-personal-payoff. I may return to this once I have a clear idea of how to get the stories where I want them. I've started a more standard LitRPG using the same system. But if you like intelligence characters who cleverly min-max their classes, it probably isn't the story for you; it's the story of a rather ordinary guy who winds up in a very similar universe.
