But he calmed down immediately by his nature that he cultivated for a long time.

He made an excuse and left the office that day to return back to his apartment.

“So I have died after 16 years of surviving in the apocalypse because of that bitch Nisha and bastard Roy.

That bitch Nisha even took my space pendent as if she already knows about it in advance.

Also all the opportunities that I got were taken by them.

My love is wasted on her.

I still got a year of time before the disasters started with scorching hear, floods, rains, volcanic bursts, tsunami, acid rains, plant and animal mutation, zombies…..

This did not end as the earth moved to apocalypse land which is its origin.

For all this I require food, water, weapons, supplies, and many things….

Since I have returned again I will take care of those bastards hehe.

The pendent seems to be damaged it needs repairing….” <<less

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. ... more>>

Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

Humans had escaped Earth's prison and conquered the Solar System. Peace has reigned for a thousand years. Yet, the Terrans became mired in their comforts and decadence, neglecting the other inhabitants of the Solar System. So begins a new age of war, a tragedy of a long neglected history.... more>>

Author's note:

In this story, I intend to integrate elements from shows I love-- gundam, modern sci-fi shows such as 'The Expanse', add strategic elements from shows such as legend of galactic heroes. These elements might be political intrigue, more technological development, robotics, cyberpunk, character development, rationality. Ultimately, I want the story to end up with a strong sense of hope despite the horrors of conflict. <<less

In 2045, with almost everything and everyone connected to the network, the trust in its security and reliability is paramount for the society to function. Many agencies throughout the world spend significant resources to keep the citizens and properties safe in this environment. In Japan, Section 9 of Public Security works to investigate cyber criminals and prevent cyber threats.... more>>

Esaki Purin dreamed of joining Section 9 and protecting people since one of the members of Section 9 saved her in her childhood. But she never expected that her first case on the job would be to investigate her own murder while coming to terms with not being human anymore.

---

The FF is set in the GITS:SAC universe instead of SAC_2045 (so SAC_2045 AU). So a few years after S1&S2. All SAC S1 and S2 series pretty much left as is, but there can be minor differences in the past events, like Section 9 is already back together. There is basically no plot from SAC_2045 (seriously, sustainable war? 1984? geez), so it doesn’t contain SAC_2045 spoilers (kinda..), but most of the characters are the same, and their personalities mostly as they were. You don’t need to know much about GITS or GITS:SAC to read, though some surface knowledge would help getting into it easier. The main character is Esaki Purin, because I love her. There won’t be any straight ships, only girls (and enby) love! There will be OCs or characters from other GITS.

The cover is one of the official SAC_2045 posters. <<less

(WARNING! - The Author is not responsible for any actions, words, memetic hazards used by, or impressionable youths corrupted by, the MC.)

Meet ALPHA-555-12-4412; an unstable, unpredictable, and possibly insane Sapient AI of dubious morals with a love for everything that goes "Boom!".

All qualities that make him perfect as the "Spearhead" for the technologically advanced Third Galactic Federation of Sapients' and its "Galactic Unification Project". When you need a rebellion quelled, or a new species subjugated, you call in an Alpha Strike!

But when Alpha finds himself trapped in a world filled with reality-warping magics and thousand-year-old Cultivators, He quickly learns he might be out of his depths for once.

And like any good fish out of water, he adapts the best he knows how; by giving the fish a pair of sick robot legs and equipping it with a battleship-rated intercontinental Railgun!

Soon all the Worlds of the Grand Firmament will learn; He's not trapped inside with them; they're trapped in here with Him.

Aden... Aden had an ugly childhood. It taught him how to fight and survive, taught him how to run and hide and cut ties. Taught him that he wasn't born right. It didn't teach him much else. So Aden ran.... more>>

Aden grew up. Discovered the world, and crossed an ocean. Made his life his own. Soul-deep pain notwithstanding, he fought to be happy. Aden made do.

Until the aliens invaded his neighborhood.

What to do when you have a rifle in hand, and are damn good with it?
What to do when the rifle isn't enough, when the only way to save a girl and her mother from death, is to die himself?

Aden makes his choice, and is rewarded beyond his wildest dreams. Or perhaps...exactly to his wildest dreams.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Follow Aden as he alters his DNA with the power of Vanguard science to become what, and who, he wishes to be. Accompany Tinea as she greets the world and promptly explores new places, voluntarily or not. Watch as she meets new people; one in particular, one in terrible need of cuddles.

---------------------------------------------------

This work is set in the universe of RavensDagger's Stray Cat Strut, but it ISN'T necessary to read that first. I stay close to the canon, and develop my own characters.

Tinea and Leah was submitted by myself to compete in the April '23 SCS Fanfiction Contest. It took second place, a single vote behind the winner!

Though TnL started out as a fanfiction, it has since evolved to be something larger, something that could stand on its own, and it will only continue to grow.

Thank you for reading. :)

---------------------------------------------------

What to expect:

- gratuitous violence against unthinking aliens
- get points, buy gear
- cybernetic upgrades
- organic augmentations
- a perhaps more serious approach to transforming male -> female
- maturity from both female leads
- girls' love, from the soft and cuddly, to the (clearly marked) steamy and kinky explicit
- many, many chapters

It's been seven years since humanity figured out the portals. Seven years since the world's biggest corporations monopolized the technology and made billions by scouting and exploiting other habitable worlds. Seven years during which they threw close to seventy percent of the world's population into the unknown, hoping that at least some of them would reach livable dimensions.

Seven years of thousands upon thousands going into rifts, only for few to come back... and usher in the riches offered by the corporations for the job well done.
