In Due Rescue
It would be a terrible cliché to say Princess Filomena couldn’t believe her eyes. But, to be honest, if she had imagined a knight rescuing her today, it would have been someone like Sir Galahad or Sir Lancelot—strong, noble, and shiny—riding up on a blinding white charger that had more frills and pennants than a tournament.

Meeting the In-Laws
"Honey, you're late." "Mix-up at the massage parlour." Meeting the in-laws. Kill me. I stumbled home in a daze through Little Russia, and only remembered my promise to buy wine at the last minute: a bottle from Georgia with STALIN on the label.

Relife
Start writing.ReLife is a Japanese anime series that was adapted from the web manga series of the same name by Yayoiso. The anime series was produced by TMS Entertainment. The first season aired in July 2016, while the second season aired in March 2018. The plot of ReLife centers around the character of Kaizaki Arata, a 27-year-old unemployed man who is struggling to find a job after quitting his previous company. One day, he is offered a chance to participate in a ReLife experiment, which involves taking a pill that makes him look ten years younger and going back to high school for a year. The experiment is meant to help him gain some valuable life experience and work on his personal issues. The ReLife experiment is organized by a mysterious company known as the ReLife Research Institute, which is led by a woman named Yoake Ryo. Yoake is the one who offers Kaizaki the chance to participate in the experiment. She helps Kaizaki get back into high school as a transfer student. Kaizaki soon meets a fellow transfer student named Chizuru Hishiro, who is socially awkward and has trouble making friends. Kaizaki and Chizuru quickly become friends, and Kaizaki makes it his mission to help Chizuru develop better social skills. As the series progresses, the two characters go through various ups and downs together, and they help each other grow as individuals. One of the most appealing aspects of ReLife is its unique premise. The idea of a person going back to high school as a ten-year-old version of themselves is fascinating, and it allows for a lot of interesting character development. Kaizaki's journey is particularly compelling, as he learns a lot about himself and his past mistakes. The series also does an excellent job of exploring various themes related to growing up and entering adulthood. The characters in ReLife are all dealing with personal issues, and they are all trying to figure out who they are and what they want from life. The show tackles topics such as bullying, loneliness, social anxiety, and the pressures of adulthood. One of the standout characters in the series is Chizuru Hishiro. Chizuru is a socially awkward character who has trouble making friends. However, she is also incredibly intelligent and driven. Her character arc is one of the most satisfying in the series, as she learns to open up to others and discovers her own passions and interests. The animation in ReLife is also noteworthy. The character designs are all unique and memorable, and the backgrounds are detailed and vibrant. The animation captures the emotions and expressions of the characters in a way that adds to the overall storytelling. While ReLife is primarily a drama series, it also has its fair share of lighthearted moments. The humor in the series is often grounded in the characters' personalities and relationships. It never feels forced or out of place. One potential drawback of ReLife is that the series can be slow-paced at times. The series is mostly focused on character development, which means that there are moments when not much happens in terms of plot progression. However, the slow pace also allows the series to explore its themes in depth and create more meaningful character moments. Another potential issue is that the series ends somewhat abruptly. The second season concludes without a clear resolution to some of the character arcs and plot points. However, this is because the anime series is an adaptation of an ongoing manga series. The manga continues to be released, so there is still the possibility of a third season in the future. Overall, ReLife is a fantastic anime series that explores important themes related to growing up and entering adulthood. The unique premise, compelling characters, and strong animation make it a must-watch for fans of drama and character-driven anime. While the slow pace and lack of a clear resolution may be off-putting to some viewers, the overall quality of the series makes it well worth a watch.

Any Port
He chose Velumptuous Veronica, and put her on the counter. The fat, bald, bearded cashier didn’t even look up from his smut magazine as he rang up the order, and gave back the six bucks change from twenty. Once home alone, after a crowded bus ride, he took the box out from the little black plastic bag, admiring his purchase. It took him twenty two minutes to inflate. It would have taken longer but one of her arms was sealed shut. He put her gimpy arm around his neck and wondered if she would have looked sexier with hair.
