“…….-“ “Nevermind.” “It doesn’t matter.”
It doesn’t matter. I swear it doesn’t matter. I’d never tell you anything that really did matter, So the little things don’t matter either.
I don’t care about that stupid little anecdote. I’m not bothered by failing my math quiz. I don’t mind that I never say anything of value. I completely agree, I’m last on your to-do list. I couldn’t care less that I need someone to talk to. I don’t wish you would realize how much I need to hang out with someone.
It really doesn’t matter that I’m going to do something undoable if I’m alone for much longer. It doesn’t matter.
And by extension, I don’t matter.
I love you. And I’m scared out of my mind. But if I can’t find the courage to share the gay meme that had me cackling for, like, five minutes straight? How could I possibly express how much I need to have a conversation?
It really doesn’t matter, I promise.
As the High Lord laid in wait, he dreamed of his congregation's victory.
His Goldflow had revealed to their people the ancient wealth of the Old World, not just the treasure within the strongholds, but the knowledge in bringing the New World to its rightful glory.
His Churchead had collected his faithful following. His people understood the necessity of unity and they served to see destiny fulfilled.
The army under the command of Shadow's Venator had quenched the flames of insurrection and killed all who dared oppose the union of the New World.
Then there was the Keeper of Threads, his dear Keeper. The one tasked as herald for the New World. Her maturity and shedding of her old persona brought forth the light the High Lord and all who worshipped him had been waiting for.
While thinking about this in his unconscious state, a taste formed in his mouth. It was the taste of stone, dust, and metal. He knew what this meant: his words were foundation and his victory was assured.
Blood. Death. Pain. Depression. Short accomplishment. She stood over the body of her dad. She smiled. That's what it tasted like to them. All she tasted was confidence. She took the map out of his pocket. She laughed. Easy. Now she had to kill her stupid sister. She didn't know who would be in her way. That was a mistake. A big one. Stars don't bend unless you force them.
HardCoreWriter- this was a POV of one of the villains to my newest idea. (I'm probably going to start a series on here) I won't say what her name is until I've decided I want to put the story on her. Have a wonderful day/night ♡✌︎☻
Victory has a taste like a bite of a juicy orange on a hot day. A bursts of hydration that sustains life in every cell in your body. Its sweetness has a nutritious balance encouraging a dopamine boost. Victory has a taste that’s so good you evoke the urges of glutton and greed. You want to share this taste with others who want to experience such goodness. Victory tastes superb. Its exquisite taste excites your taste buds to the max. It’s a taste that you want to cherish with every bite. Victory tastes like a million dollars deposited into your account as soon as you spend your last $2.
If victory had a taste, it could be rich like fine wine being drank from golden chalices at a victory feast. It could taste like cold water, refreshing after a long, hard and challenging race. Victory can taste bitter and sour to those who sacrificed everything, asking themselves if it was worth it. No matter the flavor, Victory is still drunk from the same cup we call a trophy.
There he was—beneath the dim, damp lamppost, My love and the thief holding so close. Her laughter rang, a delicate tone. But I craved what she called her own. She kissed him passionately, her smile sweet. My heart is bitter, worn, and incomplete. Taking back what’s mine, obsessions outweigh. But a battle, a challenge, a game to play.
They kiss goodbye, their bodies part. The sight heats my brittle, green heart. Acid sharp, sitting heavy on the tongue, A storm churns in my chest, my senses undone. Envy gnawing at my composure, unfair. The hunt begins: I, the wolf. She, the hare.
She walks through the city, she walks alone. Little does she know, I’ve followed her home. She unlocks the door and there she finds, A knife has impaled her stomach from behind. She gasps, stumbles forward, and falls. I’ve caught my prey, winner takes all.
Victory tastes like her blood on my blade, like the metallic crimson of the game we played. Victory tastes like my prize’s lips, like the fire and passion of our long kisses. For love is war, and I’ve prevailed. the hare has faltered, lost, and failed.
If victory had a literal taste, If only. If victory had a literal taste, It would taste of water. Satisfying, when earned, Nothing when not. If Victory would have a taste, It would taste of Tamarind. Sweet at first, Sour at last, for all of the morally wrong things that were done to get here. If victory had a literal taste, If only.
We jump in the van, the sky still dark except for the few stars that sprinkle light. Looking out my window, the street seems to blend in with the foliage. 5:00 AM. The world is asleep for the most part, apart from nurses and a select few little kids that can’t seem to sleep in till a decent hour. My eyes feel heavy but not in a way of drowsiness. I feel at rest. From the back row, I listen to the murmur of voices that are muffled by the sound of the engine. By now, the whole car is asleep except for the driver and passenger. I would go asleep but the warmth of the morning is too inviting to leave. It’s much different than a family road trip. All too familiar with each other’s company, my brother would put his headphones on and be lost in his own world for hours. My mom and dad would be in the front, my dad driving as my mother rested her head upon the window. Every now and then they would babble about the recent family drama or trivial things like where we would stop to eat later. Sometimes, we would play a game. Ben was told to take his headphones out and my mom would ask us a math question. The game was in reality unfair. My brother was a natural at numbers. He rarley studied and yet his mind worked quick to unfold the invisible puzzles. He got every one right as I sat there still pondering the first question. Anyhow, this feels different. This isn’t my family with me in this van but I couldn’t be truthful in saying they are merely friends.
If victory had a taste, it would taste like sweet, red wine. It would taste like ecstasy in liquid form, washing away every ounce of doubt, drowning my worries in a single, intoxicating gulp.
I haven’t won much in life. But I’ll spare you the sob story. You've heard it all before, from others just like me. Right now, though, all I can feel is the rush—standing over the girl who met her end at my hands, savoring the triumph. I wave to the crowd, who cheers and throws coins and flowers at my feet, their admiration palpable in the air.
Six months. That’s how long it’s been since this competition began. Six months of pushing myself further than I ever thought possible. The things I’ve done, the things I’ve seen—I'm not sure the person I was then even exists anymore. But I guess that's the point of these games: to break you down and build you back up into something else entirely. Something stronger. Something more dangerous.
I scan the arena, eyes lingering on the bodies scattered across the floor. Most are from my hand, a few from others, but it doesn’t matter. There can only be one victor, and today, that victor is me.
A shadow falls over me, and I don’t need to look to know who it is. The Arena Master stands behind me, a smirk playing at the edge of his lips as his eyes flicker to the girl lying at my feet. “A fine fighter,” he says, his voice low. “Don’t you think?”
I glance over at the crowd again, feeling the weight of their gaze. This feeling—this sweet, intoxicating rush—is all I’ve wanted for so long. But I know it’s fleeting. It always is. The Arena Master chuckles softly, his voice rising above the noise of the crowd. “This is only the beginning, child.” His words hang in the air, a reminder that this victory, like everything else, is just a small piece of a much larger game. And I'm only getting started.
If victory had a taste it would be similar to ecstasy. If I had to describe it I would say it’s like an orgasm, instant gratification. Maybe a bit like sweets melting in your mouth. A delicacy.
Thats what I could describe it as I couldn’t imagine victory could be as relishing as this. I have a hunger for this
I conquered him, a long time awaiting 10 years and I couldn’t win. Triumph? Oh it’s sweet
