Stuck in the moment.

Mistin Malice

⚠️Disclaimer!⚠️

I do not own the characters except for Mistin & Creed. The rest of the characters along with binary star hero belong to CONCR3TPARASITE go check em out, and their game! It’s amazing! Anyways! The game and the creator only intends to target 18+ audiences. Those who are under the age of 18 and above are putting both creator and the game at risk for being in trouble. Please respect the creator’s decisions and choices. Thank you for being patient and let’s get into this fan writing!

The cafe was loud per usual, I’d would look up at the clock. One hour left and I’m out of here. “Hey Mistin.” I’d would hear Hal’s voice and turn around. No matter how silent their footsteps were. I always kept their guard up. “Yes Hal?” I’d would lean against the counter wanting to hear what Hal would like to say. “Could you clear up the tables before you go? Would help out a lot.” I’d would nod and head to the back and get the appropriate stuff to pick up the mugs and cups. However I’d decided due to it being only an hour left, why not listen to some music. I’d take something from my bag and. Take out a pair of earbuds along with my phone. Hal doesn’t mind listening to music if it’s near the end of my shift. I’d put on my playlist and head out to the lobby. I’d see my brother managing the cash register. I’d start clearing up tables while humming to my music. Somehow with the right music everything seems peaceful, it’s a feeling I like, but however never felt with anyone else… except… I’d then feel a tap on my shoulder and on impulse I’d grab their wrist. I’d look up to see a familiar pair of black eyes. Ray… ‘shit…’ Ray seemed a bit caught off guard by my actions. “Someone seems jumpy.” He chuckled a bit as I let go. “Strong grip to.” I’d take out my ear buds. “Sorry I wasn’t paying attention, that’s my bad. Ehe…” this is so awkward… but how come it looked like he wasn’t phased by my actions? I have been skeptical for awhile about what Ray does for a living… I started to suspect something ever since his second time coming in… scars on his body… manual labor doesn’t always include large cut marks and whole marks… “hm…” I’d suddenly hear Ray and turn to them again. He looked at if he was ‘trying’ to read my mind… if I’m correct which I hope not… he’s possibly a hero… “you doing ok Ray? You seem more… observant today…” he flinched a bit at my question. I’ve had a neck for observing people and they’re body movements, along with they’re body language. He seems a bit… confused at something… but at what?… “oh nothing, just admiring a cute barista.” I’d pause a bit holding a empty coffee mug in my hand. I was still clearing tables. If he’s gonna try and flatter me, I might as well do the same. I’d place the bus tub on a table and wipe my hands on my apron. “Well~ since you have an eye for admiring this cute barista. I guess I sound listen to a charming…” I’d brush a strand of his hair behind his ear. “Customer hm?~” I could see his face turn a light pink, he definitely wasn’t expecting me to return his flirtatious banter, but also I could spot a hint of confusion. As if he is confused he didn’t see it coming. “What’s the matter Ray? Cat caught you’re tongue?” I’d stick my tongue out for a bit as I see him chuckle a bit as he slowly recovers from the sudden comeback of flirting. I’d look up at the clock, my shift is nearly over. “Look I got to get back to work. I’ll talk with you another time. Cya around ok?” I’d go to pick up the bus tub but feel a grip on my hand. I’d felt my face heat up a bit. I’d look at the hand that was holding mine, then look up at the man holding it. He was so close to my face now. If you ask my it’s almost like those cheesy romance scenes you see in tv shows, but it gives you the fluttering feeling. “Ray?” We’d stay like this for a bit, my heart beating practically in my ears now. My face heating up more at the sudden close contact. This feeling was familiar… where did I feel like this before?… “HEY!” A familiar and protective voice barged in and separated my hand from Ray’s. “NO TOUCHING THE EMPLOYEES DURING THEIR WORK HOURS! Back off! I know self defense moves I’m not afraid to use em buddy!” I’d stand there dumbfounded as my younger brother stood between me and Ray, suddenly I’d hear Ray laugh. It sounded genuine…… why do I feel like a love struck teenager right now? I’m literally 30… “ah um no need to worry I was just getting bad to work. C’mon Creed let’s go.” My brother wouldn’t take his eyes off of Ray. “I’m WATCHIN you… Agh!” He’d hit the back of his head against the wall.

I would obviously check to make sure he’s ok, but he’d recover and glare at Ray. I’d chuckle at this as I look over at Ray. I’d see him smile, he then looked at me and waved me goodbyes before leaving through the door. I’d see him look back through the glass and our eyes meet. I’d genuinely smile for once. He’d smile back and turn away.

After work I’d make it home and stretch for the long day. I went grocery shopping, and got some healthy things for me. I’d put it away and lay flat on my bed. I’d think back to that moment his hand touched mine, his face close to mine… it all felt so… unreal… I’d feel that familiar feeling again……

Wait……

“No!” I’d feel my body shake as I remembered the feeling all to well and the first that came along with that feeling. Why now… I thought I finally got rid of those memories… but Ray isn’t like her… or him right? I’d start remembering such memories I wish to forget and never resurface I’m my mind. I’d head into the bathroom to wash my face quickly and continue to repeat… “It’s over, they’re gone… they won’t use you like that anymore…” I’d continue to wash my face with cold water and when I turned it off I could hardly tell weather I was crying or not anymore. I’d the. Lower myself down and take deep breaths before looking at my hands a flash of a memory, a flash of blood… a flash of sorrow… and betrayal… I’d hug myself as I continued to try a steady my breathing. It’s been years yet I still haven’t gotten over it…… but this won’t stop me from living my life the way I want it… I promised myself that… I’d be gain to calm down after awhile, and step out of the bathroom. I looked at the clock. It was 11pm nearly midnight… I decided to just take an apple I bought from the store and call that my dinner for tonight. I didn’t feel hungry… I guess… when you’re caught up in a good moment……

Some bad ones come back to you like a sneaky rat………

Mermay prompts day 2, upside down:

oh yeah and here's a progression of her development throughout the years (≈ 2010, 2020, 2021, & 2022)

[kvetchinglyneurotic]

unstoppable force (desire to write) vs immovable object (tired)

[c-c-v]

I got some ideas of those bat oc formlings:

One, I made siblings. So it not one, it two >:3

Ye got the thin, but tall edgy, unhinged with a bag of crazy brother Modus, his bat form is a said Desmodus, a extinct mega vampire bat.

And secondly, we have small, harmless and wholesome, sister Honi who poofs into a Honduran bat.

Don't ask me how these two would end up siblings they just gonna be till I work on dem more.

I would draw these to out- I want to so bad, but heaven forbid I learned I am pure ass at making hoods. I'll keep trying now and then tho.

[muffinvikingart]

Both would be ideal tho.

my hof was born to be a griffon rider, if they could've given him a griffon at the start of dao the blight would've been over in a week

It's not even actually their birthday

This tale starts with your death.

Read WIP here

(Current wordcount: 240k!)

You remember only the moth, carrying you through the cosmos.

And so, the Abyss beckons you.

Now, you are a spirit, immortal. After a meeting with the Grim Reaper, Death, you were gifted with a peculiar inheritance: a bar.

This mysterious establishment and the Abyss around it serve as a nexus, connected to every realm in existence. It's a haven where spirits and deities, devils and angels, converge to drink and revel.

Yet, beneath the surface, an unease stirs. A voice calls out in your dreams—a loneliness that echoes through the Abyss. Why does it seek you?

A motley crew of spirits and immortals, each hailing from distant corners of the realms, stands with you. Bonds are waiting to be formed, or even love that transcends death itself—perhaps even with Death themself.

Manage your bar, where serving a drink to a god or an eldritch entity is just another day's work. Unravel a cosmic mystery, go on a date in infernal Hell, witness the universe's creation, or unlock the arcane secrets of magic.

Your new afterlife awaits.

A narrative-driven experience focused on character development and storytelling.

Play as any gender or none.

Shape your personality through meaningful choices.

Engage in deep and complex relationships with a diverse cast of characters.

Romance mortals and immortals alike - if you want poly, purely physical, or asexual - they will respond in kind.

Explore the afterlife, visit realms of immortals and gods, and uncover the dark secrets of the bar.

Hey

[oexas]

Back in February, decided to have a gander at drawing a fake cover for my novel in progress! You may recognise these from a piece back in 2023 that became my favourite of the year, and I'm so so excited for the world to meet these characters when it's all ready. The novel WIP is a blend of Angela Carter-esque gothic, fairytale romance and the grim obsession of one mortal woman for all things other that leads her on a katabasis of both the self and underground space she's longed to visit since childhood (inspired by the PhD thesis I wrote on hellspaces and journeys in modern literature!)

*reminder that all my pieces are nightshaded!*
