Garth Daniels is a down on his luck handyman in a quiet little town in the middle of America when our universe is co-opted into a war between an unstoppable race of reality-hopping monsters that feeds on the flesh of living creatures, and a conglomeration of thousands of realities, nested inside each other like a matroska doll.... more>>

We're the new layer.

These monsters, the Kipling, can only be defeated in a reality with very specific physics, otherwise they are unstoppable, and so Earth's universe has been assimilated to give us a fighting chance.

Garth must set aside everything that he knows, and think fast to adapt to the new laws of nature if he wants to survive.

One day, I died. ... more>>

And when I awoke, I found myself transformed into a giant robot?! And I have to fight in a massive alien war, with the survival of humanity on the line?!

WAAAAAHHHH! I NEVER ASKED FOR THIS!

A-At least my pilot is kinda cute... that's right! I gotta do my best to protect her! And protect myself! There are ravening cosmic horrors bearing down on Earth, and I absolutely refuse to get eaten by one!

Do your best, Sveta! Your second life as a giant robot begins now!

[As of introducing transgender characters and concepts in Chapter 102, I have officially added the transgender tag to this story. New readers, please be aware that trans themes do not show up until after chapter 100, and before that the story is mainly about cis lesbians... and giant robot lesbians, of course.] <<less

We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course.... more>>

At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory.

Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order.

It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone?

Yes. In a heartbeat.

Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time.

When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life.

Serenity.

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

While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges.

The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has.

Of course, that's only his second priority.

A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way.

The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured.

The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery. <<less

Rick made new rules for himself every few days. But there was only one rule that he truly always followed- Don’t stretch your legs more than the size of your blanket. The way to success was by not drawing unwanted attention.... more>>

But when the Inter-planar wars began, Rick had no other choice than to survive, and for that, he had to give up his laid-back lifestyle.

“Still not gonna be a hero!” Rick vowed.

Superhuman strength, agility, ability to use magic, telepathy, all sorts of talents emerged.

As heroes began to emerge among the population, Rick decided to take up the mantle of being the man in the shadows.

In just a few days, he lost everything he loved, so Ryan decided to buy a house in the mountains to process all those events.

Maybe with power, he won't lose anything anymore.

All of humanity were turned into dungeon cores. The goal was to carefully filter enemy forces through our defenses so that the world would have a chance of surviving an apocalyptic extradimensional invasion. ... more>>

Well, that was the overall situation. For me though, it was a chance to finally escape the fate I'd trapped myself in. A chance to leave the past behind, to reach out, to make magic.

But then again... Everything that was within my reach, was so close to being lost forever. Is it really possible to change? <<less

"I shall cuck every human and demi-humans! Even if the gods exist, I shall cuck them all!!" Those were the last words he said before his vision turned blurry.

Jake Mystro, a stubborn and strong-willed teenager without an ability, was frowned upon and disdained for being powerless as his body even rejected artificial abilities. Yet, that didn't bother Jake or made him sad. Instead, he supported himself with the help of beast items, to avoid being bullied.

However, on a certain day, Jake got betrayed by his girlfriend and was on the verge of death. Luckily, he acquired the 'Cuckold System.

The underlying system on which the story runs is a work in progress (like the story itself!) so there may be adjustments to character sheets etc as the novel rolls out.

Spelling and grammar are British English unless I mess up in which case it's just gobbledygook (please feel free to point out any typographical mistakes or obvious errors, I appreciate it!)

Finally, this story is cross-posted on Royal Road.

It wasn't really a popular smut series, just one of the dregs left alone to rot for ages in the far reaches of the internet.... more>>

A wish-fulfillment story where the protagonist gets NTR'd into oblivion in the beginning, before awakening his dormant werewolf bloodline in sheer rage and utterly demolishing all antagonists, while collecting beauties at every step of the way – A typical smutty revenge story.

But instead of the usual magical fantasy, this story's premise was based on sci-fi – taking place in an alternate version of Earth where aliens were real, urban legends like werewolves weren't mere figments of imagination, and the government was hiding a f*cking EXTRATERRESTRIAL STARSHIP inside an underground lab in Area-69...!!

"...F*ck."

...All I did was send a small donation to this unpopular novel's Author, saying that he shouldn't give up writing. And after falling asleep in my room last night, I strangely found myself transmigrated inside the novel world!

Well, good news was – the main character was a gigachad who could operate the hidden Starship thanks to his awakened werewolf bloodline, and fight back when the enemies of the Starship's creators invaded Earth and started raining down plasma beams from space!

...And the bad news – the man I possessed was a third-rate gangster who was supposed to cuck the main character, indirectly assisting in his bloodline awakening.

"....f*ck my life..."

Now, if I don't cuck him, humanity in this world would go extinct from an overwhelming alien invasion. And if I DO cuck him, I would die to the enraged MC's rampage!

"...Ah, sh*t. If I'm going to die anyway, let me have some fun in my remaining few days. Hmm, but I should book a flight to Africa first..."

*Ta-ting!*

[Bloodline awakening condition has been unlocked!]

"...Huh? Now what the hell is this?"

Dungeon incursions threaten the world, and the Class Marked fighting against them are defined by their abilities and ranks. Ethan Anderson's Essence Bonder class—a unique S-rank support—reshapes everything. His abilities grant permanent growth to others, upending the rigid class ranking system. His power comes at a cost: his abilities demand intimate bonds, pulling him into an unavoidable harem dynamic nobody expected.... more>>

Navigating these bonds forces each team member to confront social stigma, sexual qualms, and their own assumptions about what a team should be. As they adapt to this unconventional arrangement, they discover the bonds they form create strength they couldn't achieve alone.

But, Ethan's abilities draw unwanted attention. Some Guild factions argue he should serve society beyond empowering his D-ranked girlfriend and sister, instead strengthening the nations elite. Torn between duty, loyalty, and conscience, Ethan must carve a path honoring both his bonds and morals amidst political and emotional pressures.

What to expect:

-A character driven story. Harem's aren't normal, and Ethan will have to navigate that with his team members.
-Politics. An S-rank class is a big deal. The world reacts accordingly.
-A competent cast of characters.
-Action. While present, action takes second seat to character dynamics and politics.
-Smut. While present, it isn't the focus of the story. Smut scenes will be part of character growth, rather than smut for smuts sake.
-LitRPG elements aren't gamified. There are no stat screens and growth is measured in actual capability.
-Some mildly dark themes, such as toxic relationships. <<less
