Books for People Who Are Addicted to Fanfiction
Fanfiction has become my safe place for the past few months of the pandemic. While I love “real” books, the combination of Zoom and general pandemic fatigue robbed me of a lot of my motivation to read. At the end of the day, I often found myself craving comfort and instant gratification that I couldn't find in books. After talking to a friend about fanfics, I rediscovered ao3, a middle school obsession of mine that I never guessed would return to my life ten years down the road. I read one fic, and I was a goner. For the last few months of 2020, I only read fan fiction, and I loved it. I still do. I love the angst, the sexy romances, the familiar characters, the warm and fuzzy feeling I get from a particularly good scene.

I'd Save You if I Could
Authors Note: As both a Dungeons & Dragons player and an author, I've decided to retell sessions of a recent campaign I've started with my friends. This is not simply a transcription. I have put this in my own voice based on the events that "happened" in the campaign session as I would if I were writing a fantasy novel through traditional mechanisms. I'll put this note at the start of any following episodes in case people are just tuning in. If you haven't read the previous episodes, please find them on my profile and if you're enjoying the series so far, please consider giving a like or a tip. It is much appreciated!

Elementary
After finally reaching the library, which Tristan felt like they were walking forever, Farrah stopped Tristan at the door. “Now look T.C, I haven’t told Mrs. McLeary that I was bringing anyone. So when we go in let me do all the talking and pretend you don’t know that the book is one of her own.” Tristan was confused. “Wait, why do I have to pretend I don’t know the book is hers? And why am I not allowed to speak?” He asked. Farrah sighed “Well, there’s some type of rule saying that she’s not allowed to give books that are not for sale while she’s working. It’s sort of like working at a store where you sell the company’s product. You can only sell their product on their property. Selling your own stuff on their property would be wrong. Get it?” Farrah looked at Tristan, who looked like he only got half of what she was saying. “But she’s not selling you the book. She’s lending you the book.” Tristan corrected. “Yes T.C, that’s correct but either way it’s not property of the library and she is an employee, so it would be wrong.” Farrah explained. They both looked at each other for a bit. Farrah hoped she had finally gotten through to him. “Oh! Okay, I understand now. Fine, I won’t say a word!” Tristan pretended to zip and lock his mouth shut. He then pretended to throw the imaginary key far off, turned and smiled at Farrah goofily. “Oh stop it. Come on let's go get that book. You’re such a goofball.” Farrah chuckled.

A Lie is a Lie
“Has anyone ever told you what I did in the old country? How I grew up?” Dimitri was just regaining his consciousness after passing out moments before. Slowly coming to, he could first taste the blood seeping into his mouth from the empty gum pockets where once teeth were before. A stream of dried blood covered his upper lip below something that was once a nose. He was missing an ear, and although his eyes were swollen shut, the light shining in his face had worked its way through the swelling and aggravated the pounding headache he was experiencing.
