Look. I already died once. I woke up here as some merchant’s kid in a medieval fantasy world. "...Err... Where’s my cheat skill? System? HUD? ...Wtf?" Nothing. So I thought, why not? Screw it. No point worrying about dying again, so I just treated this whole thing like a video game. I leveled up, in my head at least, did quests, shamelessly looted anything that sparkles... you know, gamer stuff. And because I spent my whole past life playing games, reading books, and binge watching things, I figured I might as well use all that as "experience." Or maybe just as a giant list of excuses to do whatever. Then I met her. The goddess. The one everyone else fears and trembles before. But me? "Final boss? Wait no... Ah. Yep. Clearly a dating sim. 100%." So I flirted... Duh.. So here I am, with a romantic deity, gaslighting a divine being into thinking I know what I’m doing, and treating this world like an RPG. Hey, don’t judge, no one told me the rules. If I’m going down, Whatever. I’m going down reckless and overconfident.

My hand trembles as I bring the lit cigarette up to my mouth and take a drag. I lean against the railing of my apartments balcony as the wind lightly blows the cold rain drops onto my exposed skin. This city has been throwing curve balls at me ever since I moved here... But ghosts? I sigh as I let the smoke out of my lungs and look back inside at the lump under the covers on my bed. At least she got my mind off things for a while. I smile slightly thinking about the past few hours. I put out my cigarette and head over to my closet. Guess it's time to get back to work.

In a time long ago, in a place far away, you were the sunshine in my darkness. Your mere presence brightened my world. You brought me warmth and relief. But- You and I were not fated. No matter how much you try to change things, no matter how much we try... Nothing can escape Fate. Not you. Not I. In this lifetime, in this world, we will never escape the path that fate has decreed upon us. We are not meant to be. It was a fleeting, but beautiful time. If I were given a wish, I would wish for that time to never end. But wishes are only that, wishes. And like all things, that time was meant to end. If I were given another chance... If we were to meet in different circumstances... Would things perhaps be different? ———— Authors Note: I’m aiming to write a slightly sad story so don’t expect anything too happy. Um... also my naming sense is sort of really bad, so expect some slightly out of place names or just no names at all. Update schedule: Whenever
