Wake her up, the air conditioner said.
What was happening? My mind was foggy. Where … ? Oh … I was in my sleeping bag.
Wake her up, the strange, electronic-sounding voice repeated.
Lily was thrashing around in her bed a lot.
She's having a nightmare.
This was super weird! I touched the floor, to see if my hand would pass through the carpet. Nope – solid. I wasn't dreaming.
Go on, girl, wake her up.
I had gooseflesh. I pushed off the sleeping bag and got up. Lily mumbled something I didn't understand, lying diagonal across the bed with most of the bedsheets off. I touched her calf, which was closest to me, and gave it a tentative, gentle shake. She stopped moving and rolled onto her back.
Good girl. Go back to sleep.
I got back in my bag and lay down. I didn't go back to sleep. I lay and listened to the droning hum of the air conditioner. It didn't speak any more words.
I was wide awake, but I didn't dare to get up or even to reach for my phone.
What had just happened? Did it

Writer!GermanyxReader- Dreams Come True
Writing was his escape. His escape from the outside world. It helped him, he said. Helped him cope. It helped him deal with the terrible words thrown at him like baseballs in a batting cage. That's how he described it. He was trapped, caged, unable to escape. His wings, clipped, and his voice, stolen. His words were beautiful. His sentences, flowing like a river out of his mouth. He's an amazing poet. Oh, I'm not, was what he always said. Yes, you are, I retorted. I don't know why he never accepted the fact his writing and poetry was something out of this world. I'm modest, he always said. Modest indeed.People described him as a gentle g...

Chubby!Germany X Reader - Coffee is Key
Chubby!Germany X Reader – Coffee is KeyWhen it comes down to it, Ludwig figured he had just as much of a shot at it as everyone else. Creative jobs go fast but no matter what, the most talented and hardworking person wins. He put such little faith in talent it was almost laughable, hard work is where the boys are separated from the men.Not only is Ludwig a man, but he is a hunk of a man. He’s tall with eyes of rushing spring water, sex appeal radiates from his muscled frame, and a woman’s world is completely rattled when she feels the coarse grain of his sizeable hands. With his appearance only he could easily get anything he wanted; money...
No matter how Life treats me pall
I shall never understand it all
Sometimes many tears often fall
I cry and let it go and the sun rises
I try to find every new day surprises
In the horizon and within the skies
I shall follow my heart 'cause she tries
She tries always to calm me also down
No one can steal away my silver crown
Sometimes happy sometimes all alone
Sometimes sad but often a smile I own

THE ART THIEF MANUAL During my career as the Perverted Art Thief Hunter I have encountered various plagiarists. I dont consider myself to be an uber N00B killer (Hell, it takes more than just one person to get the scum banned! So, teamwork, teamwork, teamwork!), but Im no newbie. And Id like to share my experience with you.
Why? Some of you may find this essay simply amusing. Some may want to use it as a tutorial. Or just to compare my stories with their own. But lets not focus on the introduction, and cut to the chase, shall we? TYPICAL ART THIEF LINES (and what do I think about them) Youre just jealous! Yes, I am Of the origina...

Sta.sh Writer and the new text editor.
The news that Sta.sh Writer will probably be deleted forever along with the old DA May 20 makes me feel upset, because I really loved Sta.sh Writer for the ability to save and write things, as I do in Google Docs. In fact, the staff makes such a huge mistake in deleting Sta.sh Writer, it’s even hard for me to say how much, because I use Sta.sh Writer and Google Docs equally. For me they are both cool and comfortable for my literature. And with the arrival of the Eclipse they want to remove Sta.sh Writer. I decided to check out the new text editor to see if I would use it as I did with Sta.sh Writer and enjoy the process or not. Comparison ...

Sigh of Relief [Leon x Nurse!Reader]
"Hush," he says, pulling your body flush against his.Your breath hitches in your throat, and your heart pounds wildly in your chest, ready to crack through its skeletal cage and flee in utter terror, blood and vessels trailing behind it. Your eyes fix uncomfortably on the policeman's, searching for any sign of reassurance. His lips press together to stifle his breathing, his eyes strangely composed yet still wide and alert. As your fist curls in his jacket, you feel his pulse pounding through the fabric of his uniform and the leather of his bulletproof vest.Then, you hear them...once a distant echo, now steadily drawing nearer...

Snape is just nasty, right? 7
But Snape is just nasty, right? Part 7 a consideration of the evidence for Our Hero being exceptionally unpleasant AS A GROWN MAN: Miscellaneous specific incidents in which Snape appears to behave badly: When Snape takes points off the Trio for taking a library book ( Quidditch Through the Ages ) outside, you certainly get the impression he's invented that rule. But he'd just been bitten by Fluffy, and was limping noticeably, which suggests that he was in a lot of pain, and he does tend to deal with stress by giving it to other people. In any case, the first page of the published version of Quidditch Through the Ages warns of awf...

Marshall turned in his bed, trying to get comfortable, but sleep wouldn’t come. Too many thoughts entered his head, thoughts of the day’s events. He didn’t want to think about them, but they wouldn’t go away. With a tired groan, he got up from his bed and floated to his bathroom. Rinsing his face with cold water, Marshall looked at his reflection in the mirror. He looked tired and his hair was a mess. He didn’t look like himself at all, but he didn’t feel like himself either.He didn’t know why it bothered him; it was just a kiss on the cheek. Gumball gave those kisses to Fionna all the time and it meant nothing more than a thank you for a ...
