Drake Zoraiz was a ordinary young black man, maybe a little with a more realistic view of the world than most of the people. He had been living his life in the world as a mercenary. Until he was left for dead after a truly brutal mission where everything that could go wrong, does. As an atheist for most of his orphaned life, he was not expecting anything waiting for him after his death, especially not the endless void he found himself in or that of the beyond beautiful, and especially radiant figure of a goddess, who offers a chance of boundless adventure, and endless battles to become more, would show up and say.

The tender girl, Li Qiao, transmigrated into a delicate bride in a poor family. A rural household registration, between two decrepit houses. What she didn't know was that the unambitious loser of a husband would one day become a commercial tycoon, possessing the highest status and countless wealth. She was even less aware that her reborn stepsister was determined to replace her and become the wealthy lady of the house. The stepsister often urged her to leave, "Brother-in-law drinks and fights, he's irresponsible and doesn't deserve you." Li Qiao was irritated on a daily basis, "He says he can annoy me to death." The stepsister added, "He's too poor, you and the child will follow him to a life of hardship." Li Qiao's face blushed with shyness, "He says one child is not enough to split up over, unless we have another one." The stepsister: ……

Upon awakening, finding myself in the world of a novel I once read – "The Birth of a Hero." This story chronicled the adventures of Choi Han, a high schooler ripped from Earth and deposited in this fantastical realm alongside countless other heroes-in-the-making. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of those heroes. Instead, I landed smack dab in the middle of the story as a member of the despised Count's family. This family just so happened to rule the territory where Choi Han encounters his first village. The problem? That village gets obliterated by assassins, leaving Choi Han deeply traumatized. The even bigger problem? This idiotic, good-for-nothing character I'd become had no clue about the village's destruction and ends up provoking Choi Han. Needless to say, I got flattened. "...This," I groaned, "is a serious predicament." But hey, at least it's a new life, right? Here's hoping it's a bit less... destructive. ------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This is an unofficial translation of the novel "Lout of Count's Family."

The MC at beginning is someone who's impulse control has deteriorated severely. A lot of the trouble he gets into is because he's reckless and emotionally-involved in delicate and nuanced situations. However, he usually gets bailed out by his natural gifts and talents which allows him to continue with his carefree attitude... until it inevitably doesn't. I really want to tackle this part of the MC's character and what are the effects this kind of mindset has to an individual and those around them. *Credits for Image to KELLEPICS https://pixabay.com/images/id-2847724/ Free for commercial use under Pixabay License with no attribution required

Content warning: Horror thoughts She waits with a watchful eye, staring at the pasta. It doesn’t boil. Pacing back and forth across the empty kitchen with the useless pots and pans still in the creaky cupboard, she adds another pinch of salt to the pasta. It still doesn’t boil. She thinks about putting on a bit of music while she waits, but the downstairs neighbors hate when she does that, and she can’t remember where she last left her headphones. They might be in her coat pocket or they might not, perhaps she left them on top of the back bed in the room with the leftover textbooks. Or maybe she didn’t, maybe she left them hanging off the tiny coat rack, right next to her keys. Wherever she left them it’s too much work to run and find them, especially when the pot might boil soon. As soon as it boils, she’ll put the pasta in. As soon as it boils. The tiny apartment is only temporary, and the only burner fizzles on her. She coaxes it, fights it, begs it to make a bigger flame but it does not, settling proudly for the dull little spark that it is. Blowing on a flame coaxes a campfire; she wonders if it’ll help the stove. Probably not. She watches the blue flame dance and stares right through it. Her phone lights up. She has a notification, another message she’s not going to read. Why bother, when she knows exactly what it will say? Still, she checks the name. She reads the first two letters and flips the phone over, wincing as it lands a bit too hard on the counter. Fortunately, it’s not cracked. Unfortunately, that part of the counter is still covered in uncleaned bacon grease from his disaster yesterday, and now her phone is too. The television buzzes a commercial from the living area, or whatever passes as such. She cranes her neck to check the ad, but it's not selling anything good, just some sort of medical plan for old people, the kind of thing she couldn't afford even if she chopped off both arms and sold them. When she left home, she swore up and down she wasn’t ever going to be the kind of person who left the TV on. She wasn’t going to eat in front of it, didn’t even need a good model really, just something to use to occasionally watch old cartoons and maybe a new show if he wanted to. Now, the TV is always on, always buzzing, always saying something, just a little too quiet to hear. The pot on the stove is still not boiling. She thinks she remembered to top the water off with cold water, but maybe she didn’t. She wonders if throwing in a tablespoon or two now will change anything. Probably not; her greasy phone buzzes again. She flips it over, checks the name, and turns it back down. He’s not going to write her. She knows that. Still, she checks, just in case. Banana bread would probably be a smart thing to make,

The 90's Kid is a fun, mostly light-hearted romp oozing with nostalgia but also written to appeal to anyone from any generation who likes Back to the Future, time travel in general, fun, pop culture, media, callbacks, obscure references, water gun fights, sleepovers, amusement parks, classic Nickelodeon, vaporwave, video games, lazy summers, recess, secret kid clubs, or even school itself, if that's their thing. The series website has art, nostalgic commercials, a cast page, more background info, and even Spotify playlists! www.90skidstory.com As it was written prior to our troubled version of 2020, the story partially takes place in a more idealistic version of the year.
