All the Colors of Light (and a few more)

Chapter 17

Read it on Fanfiction too

Summary: It has been three weeks since he’d hit the road, when Steven is invited to a party. Once there, he meets a lady that needs a hand.

From then on, he is dragged into a chaotic night when he learns three things:

One, his powers are still growing;

Two, drinking is no fun when you have to drive;

And three… there is people out there weirder than him.

Why did nobody told him ‘being human’ was so difficult?

Excerpt:

Killer, who just a moment ago was making honor to his name, had been reduced to a trembling bony creature. Steven, despite his own fear, didn't move from his spot.

The man lifted the rifle to Steven's face. "Move out or be moved boy."

Steven scoffed, completely dumbfounded. "Are you insane? It's just a dog!"

"I said move!" the man screamed, and it was clear his threat was serious.

At this point, Steven was tired of this back-and-forth. He was angrier than he was scared, and he'd no intention of letting the dog go.

"Ok. I'll move." Steven blinked once and released his aura. His hue changed, as the room was filled with pink light.

Wow, its been AGES since i posted a chapter from this fic here. But i felt like it, since there's just one chapter left.

I don't know if anybody here reads it, but i just wanted to let you guys know.

Chapter 5

Read it too on Fanfiction

Summary: It has been three weeks since he’d hit the road, when Steven is invited to a party. Once there, he meets a lady that needs a hand.

From then on, he is dragged into a chaotic night when he learns three things

:One, his powers are still growing;

Two, drinking is no fun when you have to drive;

And three… there is people out there weirder than him.

Why did nobody told him ‘being human’ was so difficult?

Excerpt:

"Soledad?"

"Yeah?"

"I think I'm drunk."

"No kidding. What prompt… what… how can you tell?"

"Sky's moving."

Well, that wasn't all true; Steven actually felt like his head was moving, spinning at speeds never seen before. Steven had never been much for going to space —too many bad memories up there. At that moment, however, he wondered how is that everything that was up there made more sense than what was happening down here?

The only thing keeping him truly grounded was the girl at his side. They were really cramped there, over the Dondai, and Steven tried not to even touch Soledad, in fear it might open the bridge again. He has to many emotions on his own to having to deal with someone else's.

They spent some time chatting about nonsense they forgot as soon as it left their mouths. They only stopped when Rain and Peeps came by. By their looks and auras, they were tired —and drunker than they'll ever admit.

"You lovebirds are done there? Cause food's not free and you need to help me pack the camp."

As he stepped down the car, Steven's head went from being numb to being overcrowded.

Why did she mean by 'lovebirds'? I have I girlfriend! I did say that, didn't I?

Chapter 5 people. BIG ONE. Lots of plot, characterization, worldbuilding... It was a fun chapter to write
