《Quem Ri Por Último Ri Melhor》CAPÍTULO VINTE E SETE

-Vamos, Matt, não seja teimoso! – Lauren disse, me arrastando para dentro de uma barbearia no shopping.
Nós tínhamos acabado de sair de uma ótica e eu estava usando lentes de contato. Por incrível que pareça, eu gostei. Incomodava um pouco no começo, mas era bem melhor do que ter que ficar empurrando os óculos toda hora, ou ter que limpar as lentes dele por estarem embaçadas ou sujas. As lentes de contato definitivamente ficariam comigo pro resto da vida.
Quando entrei na barbearia, vi que não era um lugar comum. Era um estabelecimento muito bem estruturado, as pessoas estavam uniformizadas e eu me senti à vontade apenas por estar ali. De repente, saiu de trás de um balcão um homem alto, não muito forte, com cabelos e bigode totalmente brancos. Dava para ver que ele era muito novo para ter cabelos brancos, então deduzi que era platinado. O bigode dele dava voltinhas dos lados, e seus olhos eram quase tão azuis quanto os de Lauren. Ao ver Lauren, ele sorriu e deu um abraço nela, seguido de um beijo no canto da boca, quase um selinho. Não posso negar que eu fiquei com muitos ciúmes ao ver a cena, mas tentei não transparecer.
-Matt, esse aqui é o Evan. Ele é meu primo de segundo grau, somos muito amigos desde crianças. Ele é quem vai cortar o seu cabelo – Lauren me apresentou.
Estendi a mão para ele que apertou bem forte e deu um sorriso amigável.
-Então você é o famoso Matt – ele disse. – Lauren não para de falar em você.
Lauren corou um pouco e eu apenas sorri.
-Então – Evan disse. – Como vai querer seu corte hoje?
Me sentei numa cadeira alta e me olhei no espelho. Sinceramente, eu precisava mesmo de um corte. Porém, não sabia qual escolher, então apenas disse:

-Ah, não sei. Pode fazer o que você achar que ficaria melhor. Acho que Lauren também tem umas ideias.
Lauren sorriu ao ver que me lembrei dela. Evan assentiu e virou para Lauren, e os dois começaram a discutir baixinho sobre que corte fazer.
-Assim vai ficar excelente – Evan disse em voz alta.
-Eu te disse que eu daria uma ótima cabeleireira – Lauren ironizou.
Evan riu e em seguida virou minha cadeira, me deixando de costas para o espelho.
-Espera, eu não vou ver o que você vai fazer? – Perguntei.
-Só no final, irmão – Evan sorriu e me deixou bem preocupado.
Resolvi fechar os olhos e apenas esperar pelo pior.

Confluence
In some realities, the Keys to power are literal. Ryan Miller has spent two long, powerless years in the new and dangerous world that the breach dumped him into. With beasts roaming the countryside and powerful Guilds controlling the cities, the poor farmhand from Earth wants to take control of his own destiny. With no vast riches to his name, his only opportunity for a Key and control of his own life is to hunt and kill the dangerous monsters that plague the lands. And if he manages to get one, he'll have to fend off vicious Guild politics. But the rewards? Exploring beautiful vistas in far off lands and diving through breaches to other worlds for fame and profit. And, just maybe, he can rise high enough to achieve the freedom he seeks. For Ryan, it's more than worth the risk. Artist for Cover: https://www.deviantart.com/kvacm

The Many Deaths of Kara Lowe
112 years ago, the Bubble Burst. 103 years ago, the Great War ended. 76 years ago, the War of Two Worlds ended. It is now 2021 and Homo Sapiens, Homo Subcinctus, Homo Variari, and Sapient Beasts have been living together in a hard-won harmony for 75 years. Or so they say. Atypical high-school student Kara Lowe has some serious doubts about that. After she is killed and brought back to life by her accidental murderers, she is forced to abandon everything she thought she knew about the world, and herself. While plagued by a mysterious Order that believes she should not exist, Kara must prove her right to life by destroying an age-old enemy with an unfortunate connection to her. There won't be a ton of gore or traumatising content, that's not the focus, but the tags are there to be safe. The main character uses colourful language when she's angry. The main character might seem to be talking to you at times. She is not. Things will make sense eventually. A quick note about religion: this novel takes place in an Alternate History setting. No existing religion from our world exists in this one. Any similarities are coincidential.
