Vale Bryce is a hunter because her dad wants her to be one. She is a loner because all hunters are. She is a drifter because that is how hunters find their jobs. ... more>>

Those are lies. Vale is none of those things, the lies the only thing keeping her alive. Until one day she slips up. A single moment of truth ruins it all, awakening a longing for a life not built on things she isn’t.

Vale has to go back to lying. She has to. The Inquisition will kill her if she doesn’t. But the truth is too addictive. Vale is not a vampire. That is a lie. That is how she will die.

Yet maybe... dying happy is better than dying a lie?

Have you ever loved a videogame so much that you wished you were somehow magically transported into it? Tough luck, this isn’t your typical isekai story where the protagonist ends up in a different world. The videogame becomes the new reality in this one. Features: a cute gay protagonist (and his handsome boyfriend), strong female characters (probably too strong), magic, huge fluffy wings and… did I mention BL? Doesn’t feature: waiting for romance to finally happen after xxx chapters, stupid girls who need rescue and… did I mention it’s not straight? Warning: I might have a fetish for angel wings. I mean… I most probably do.... more>>

This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.

One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment. <<less

For as long as anyone can remember, humans have been preyed upon by Harbingers, living nightmares which devour dreams and passions and souls, and defended by Keepers. These children alone hold the gift of magic, the wild and wondrous ability to impose emotions over reality and empower their frail bodies with the splendor of their souls. Under their protection, humanity was able to survive and thrive.... more>>

While modern Keepers have come to enjoy a social position somewhere between celebrities and religious idols, very few accept the mantle simply to be a hero. The Messengers of the Goddess Claiasya, spirits charged with awakening the magic in suitable souls, promise that Keepers who consume and purify enough Harbingers will obtain the power to change themselves or the world in nearly any way they wish.

It’s for this purpose that Liadain Shiel, a young girl born terminally ill, throws herself into life as a Keeper when her opportunity comes, hoping against hope to rewrite her fate and save her life while she still can.

But magic wants its wielders to grow and change, not simply continue living, and the secrets swimming beneath the sea and behind the sky have lives and designs of their own.

Very queer/poly, very fluffy, very trans sequel about falling in love and talking about feelings. Follows five years after the events of "Help! I'm Falling for an Alien" and it'll vaguely stand on it's own but way better if you read that first.

Ongoing standard of my writing being heavily influenced by the work of Octavia E. Butler. Attempting to have a bit more of themes around "what does consent and agency look like when connection/community is required for survival?" which she loved using to create really topsy turvy situations of dubious consent and weird power dynamics.

Also ongoing, my writing is kinda an outpouring of my 'fly by the seat of your pants' style of GM'ing RPG stuff which might fit into plot arcs and core conflicts and resolution, but no promises. Also as such, collaboration is wonderful and feel free to toss story suggestions or constructive criticism my way as you think of things.

Content warnings:
*Alcohol consumption
*Trans/queerphobia
*Federal agents and Police being bastards as they do
*More to be added as things come up

=>I use "gender bender" loosely, less as in genre tropes of forced or accidental transformation. More in that there will be gender fuckery, but it will be done under conscious control of the character for their own ends (mostly comfort in fluid identity or messing with cis people).
=>Girls Love and Boys Love as it very queer and genderfluid so sometimes the pairings might wind up masc/masc or fem/fem as far as how characters are presenting at the time
=>I still need a nonbinary tag on here as lots of enbies, but that's not an option😜 <<less

To differentiate this fanfiction from the original work, there will be more development on new characters and mechanics and interaction of magic. I want to flesh out details and explain new parts concisely, while removing the original wordy info dumps and plot devices (such as asking the computer for information). Instead of knowing what the abilities you can do before hand, you will only know when you rank up with vague instructions added to your mind, as you have to "earn" the specifics yourself or from others.

**Purpose of fanfiction:** I have always liked simple system stories where the system functions in a predictable way with no hidden quests or expanding capabilities. It's almost like the system is secondary, like it's only a plot device to convey the real purpose, giving the magic system or skills to characters. However, I felt that this story has many details that could have been exploited and was never accomplished. If you want to know more about the reason, check out the Glossary.

**Glossary**: While it may contain spoilers, but the additional information such as SVG and graphics, Copypastas tables, and lists can be useful to get a good picture of what's going on. I want to make it a point that I am keeping track of stats, skill points, and experience required for the next level using a spread sheet, so you can feel relieved there isn't going to be no sudden unexpected power up. In the early chapters, I will even track time, to show the rhythm and pace that the character goes through in the early stages. I might not post that "support" spreadsheet, but I obviously post the copypasta text. I will only post the relevant parts, as I find it annoying when I use TTS to hear a long status screen in stories. If you want to read the more detailed specifics, click on the footnote for a pop-up tooltip.

**R18** will be light or implied as I am not planning to write any lemon scenes. However in the circumstance where it's require, I will describe such a scene minimally. Of course, Gore and Strong Language will still be a thing.

**Regular Updates** are not promised. I decided to post and update on ScibbleHub due to WebNovel's short lived policy of requring their app to read more than 10 chapters.
