“I didn’t want to wake up. To be honest, I wish I hadn’t. It was my last opportunity to just sleep it off and pretend this entire life had never happened.”

This is just a diary, and how you take this story is completely up to you. It’s full of lies, and it’s full of memories. I can’t tell which is which anymore, but maybe you can.

A/N: It's not a fun read, and it’s probably offensive to some people. I’m writing the entire thing in a single sitting, and I’m not even proofreading. I'm not writing for views or publicity, but because I wanted to write this; as I said, this is a diary. A very twisted diary of someone I keep inside my head.

Oh, and...trigger warning for suicide. <<less

(This story is a participant of Royal Road's November 2023 Writeathon event.)

You have been summoned here for one reason. Trevor, you need a break.

Trevor Anderson was just another normal, overworked retail worker at an understaffed big box store. All he wanted was his promised promotion into a less stressful position, a chance to use some of his vacation days without feeling guilty about it, and time with his friends.

While waiting patiently for his chance, a workplace accident changed everything for Trevor, including the world that he resided in. After bungling his way through a summoner’s questionnaire and gaining the Power of an extradimensional inventory, he finds himself in the small, peaceful town of Tosa.

In a world where he can finally relax, he finds himself both unable and unwilling to sit still long enough to do it. With everything he needs to take destiny into his own hands - a clean slate, a supernatural ability, and good friends - Trevor will use his Power to turn his life around.

And this time, it’s on his terms.

What to expect:
* Cozy, questing, SoL, jokes, and probably some other buzzwords, too.
* Experimenting with a third person style.
* Numbers are small, but they go up and progression is obvious.
* One book worth of content. <<less

Everybody wants to be free from daily life, but when faced with the opportunity to achieve complete freedom, most crumble under the fear of their own limitlessness and yearn to go back to a restricted, comfortable life.... more>>

Some people, on the other hand, rise to the occasion and do everything in their power to reach freedom. Among these types of individuals, there is Akir, a psychologically tormented young man with an unusual history. After he is transported into a mysterious construct called the Ruins, he starts a ruthless journey towards true freedom, which he believes will bring him happiness.

Things don't go according to plan, though, as the trials he is put through start making him question his morality and the opinions he lives by. Eventually, his identity comes into question, and he starts to lose himself, his life goals threatening to fade into nothingness.

"My name is Faith Elizabeth Samuels. Well, it used to be, before I left my fundamentalist helicopter parents and started going by Luna... My counselor tells me writing will help me to 'heal'. Somehow, writing my feelings of depression, anxiety, self harm and suicidal thoughts will negate a lifetime of 'bad feelings' about my self image, mental health and general well-being. Sounds legit. So, fair reader, does my little tale of woe intrigue you? If so, come join my merry band of misfits on this roller coaster of life."... more>>

Battling her inner demons and conquering the ever-terrifying world of adulting. She might even fall in love on the way...

I thought I knew what it meant to be human, until I crossed those boundaries.
I believed I knew my limits, until I expanded all I am.

My senses mapped over hers, and I learned how incredible her alien world was for us.
Her senses mapped over mine, and she learned how wondrous my alien world was for us.
Our worlds overlap. Our minds awaken and link together. Our hearts synchronize.
Our realities hold truth, in separation and in unity.
This is all because of what she did to me, and also what I decided for myself thereafter.

She and I are the most unusual pair we've ever known, a Human and an Altiri, each far apart, yet brought together by an incredible power. This is where my story begins. It's more than a crazy romance story; our intertwined lives is the embodiment of how I live, in this crazy world we call normal, with our secrets left untold.

This is our story. It has a beginning, but not an ending. Romance isn't all about walking away in the sweet sunset; it's messy, complex, and downright terrifying at times. No life is perfect. No relationship is easy. Still, I would never trade it for anything. Join me, as I breathe life into these moments, memory by memory.
