|ONC 2024 AMBASSADORS' PICK · 5X WATTPAD FEATURED| Two years after her older brother's tragic death, anxiety-stricken Maisie and her emotional support cat, Milo, attend the Disney College Program, where they must discover a new life meaning in the most magical place on Earth.... more>>

***

The death changed everything.

Milo, an orange tabby, has always wanted a little sibling, but after the tragic loss of his owner's older brother, adoption was put on hold, and he became her Emotional Support Animal. Now, two years later, Maisie's determined to grant Milo's long-overdue wish; however, she's still grieving and overthrown with anxiety, leaving Milo to tag along with her for the famed Disney College Program. Nevertheless, when heartbreak catches him, too, Milo must push past his grief to save himself and his wish.

Maisie Claire is ready to move on but not prepared to leave her family after two years for the DCP. She would've never accepted that offer letter if it hadn't been for her parents helping her get an ESA. Now trapped in an unfamiliar world, Maisie must find a new life meaning while still keeping her brother's memory alive. It starts with discovering the courage to befriend her mysterious suitemate and thanking Milo for everything he's done.

After all, sometimes moving on just takes a little bit of courage.

The story of a young witch who created a special doll to help with her intense workload

I've been stuck in a hospital bed for the last 3 years, I can't talk, move anything including my own eyes and all I have... more>> to look at is a blank wall. Things are getting better as I've just been sold to a shady company as medical waste. Now I have the opportunity to live in a fantasy game. You may pick fighter or mage; I'd rather be a farmer. Now my little Lu-Shi and I are going to plow this world a new one. Who is Lu-Shi you ask, tune in and find out. <<less

Two minds; one body.
Two souls; merged perceptions.... more>>

I thought I knew what it meant to be human, until I crossed those boundaries.
I believed I knew my limits, until I expanded all I am.

My senses mapped over hers, and I learned how incredible her alien world was for us.
Her senses mapped over mine, and she learned how wondrous my alien world was for us.
Our worlds overlap. Our minds awaken and link together. Our hearts synchronize.
Our realities hold truth, in separation and in unity.
This is all because of what she did to me, and also what I decided for myself thereafter.

She and I are the most unusual pair we've ever known, a Human and an Altiri, each far apart, yet brought together by an incredible power. This is where my story begins. It's more than a crazy romance story; our intertwined lives is the embodiment of how I live, in this crazy world we call normal, with our secrets left untold.

This is our story. It has a beginning, but not an ending. Romance isn't all about walking away in the sweet sunset; it's messy, complex, and downright terrifying at times. No life is perfect. No relationship is easy. Still, I would never trade it for anything. Join me, as I breathe life into these moments, memory by memory.

Follow along with a cast of characters who are all down on their luck, but won't stop trying their hardest to survive in a world that ignores the little people.

Volume 1 - Blurb;
The two women couldn't seem much further apart - Teacher and student, specialist and novice, of noble birth and with no family at all - But when brought together with the rest of the Battleship Am-Fluchtig's fledgling crew, perhaps they will have more in common then first thought.
     
The ships of the Tristian Flotilla are gathering, a dangerous submarine is already on the move, and it will all come to a head at the sight of a mechanical moon.
The UnderCurrent has begun transmitting...... more>>

'The UnderCurrent Incident' of 2022 gave humanity it's first glance at alien life, although not in an expected way.
It allowed for a VR-like vision into the lives of an entire race of people separate to our own. This novel serialises their story, the story of 5 ordinary pilots partaking in an interplanetary war of galactic proportions.
With no way of knowing if this glimpse into a foreign society is an alternate reality or some distant planet in our own universe, it would only take so long for the public to demand a guided tour - Now you hold that very thing in your hands, with exclusive access to the project and transcripts from the original experiment's team. You will learn of the lives to which UnderCurrent affords us a view into.
Of the Battleship Fluchtig's soldiers, of a conflict that spans far more then any of them know and of their hunt for a 'Dangerous Submarine'.

-Blurb of "The UnderCurrent Experience" by Pierre Havelock on behalf of his Majesty's government.

Now on Royal Road and coming to Scribblehub!
This is my own original work, with obvious inspirations from the likes of Gundam, Dune, 1984, Evangellion, Grimgar and anime in general.
All ideas and concepts shown are my own, though I do Parody some things.
A fair amount of research has gone into many of the topics in this book, but I am by no means an expert in any.

I'd love to share some of the research I've come across on mecha, living in Space, and amputees. Amputees in particular is a worthy topic we should all be more educated on - You may find this video link a brief intro into that world; https://youtu.be/piiFI8QafHs

There is a degree of deconstructionism towards the mecha genre involved with an onus on taking a more practical look at the features of that mode of storytelling, giving actually worldbuilding explanations for some of the fantastical equipment involved and using the likes of military structure and resource management in conjunction with the story, but hopefully this is something anyone can enjoy with no prior knowledge of the genre traditions.

Thanks for reading! <<less

A forbidden relationship with the most popular girl in school is the last thing Chloe Lee expects when she begins bartending. Especially when she doesn't even realize she's gay herself. ... more>>

Desperate for money for her mother's surgery, Singaporean student Chloe Lee illegally serves drinks at a local bar. When equally underage RJ Shin--the richest and most popular girl in school--shows up as a customer, they already have something in common.

Their fateful encounter sends both their lives out of control. Chloe's money-making plan is soon derailed by RJ's insistent involvement, a growing hostility at work, and an unfortunate entanglement with RJ's family's politics. Worst of all, Chloe is slowly discovering her sexuality as she falls for RJ. Hard. Suddenly, sacrificing everything for money is no longer an easy choice to make.

As secrets unveil and feelings surface, Chloe is forced to reevaluate her life goals and decide what she is willing to sacrifice for love--and what she must sacrifice for herself. If she holds on to more than she can take, she might end up losing everything she values.

Life is hard, but love is harder.

Fanfiction is the nearest genre for this but this is one of those cases where the distinction between derivative fiction and fanfiction is relevant -... more>> I'm by definition *not* a fan of Harry Potter and that's a little more obvious if you read my main work, and derivative fiction when you're not a fan of the source material is inherently very different to derivative fiction when you *are*.
This is a spinoff of that main work, and will contain spoilers if you read the Chamber of Secrets section so probably best to read this after that. It's based on a 'what if' premise, as I wrote a scene where a werewolf Rhiannon came close to accidentally turning Ginny. So what if that scene went differently and she *was* turned, what would Voldemort do if he possessed the body of a werewolf? Obviously as a result, this does contain a lot of horror and angst, and *intentionally* writing horror-adjacent media is pretty new to me so I apologise if it's clunky.
This work also serves as a different character perspective, and as such a lot of the feelings shown do still translate to what happens in the main work and so it may be worth a read if that appeals to you, part of that involves the development of a romantic relationship in the main work that doesn't really get any screen time to show *how* it developed because it doesn't involve the perspective character in the main work but it does here! Events are different, but many of the feelings are the same.
Previously this was exclusive to AO3 readers, but as it stands completed I figured I may as well make it available to anyone who only reads on here. Enjoy, be horrified etc - I can promise that it at least ends in a fluffy bittersweet way. Unless I get bored and add more chapters because I think things that happen in the main work's future might be fun to reinterpret in here, consider it finished, it was only meant to be a oneshot anyway. <<less
