Exhausted, Ambitionless, and going through the motions, all Daniel wants is for something different in his miserable life to happen.... more>>

Unfortunately, he got his wish, and after dying in an unlucky encounter, he expects to find darkness and nothing else.

However, to his utter surprise, he will be getting a second chance in a fictional world of his choosing.

RWBY, the world of Remnant, and in the pilot seat of Lie Ren’s body.

A place where two immortal lovers are constantly at odds, four powerful relics can give any mustache twirling villain a chance at world domination, deadly Grim lurk at every corner, and the tantalizing fact that trigger happy armies and child soldiers are the only buffer preventing humanity and faunus-kind from going extinct.

Although Daniel’s situation isn't the best, things aren't exactly the worse either, because with an already unlocked aura, a strong will to survive, and a good amount of knowledge of what's to come; He will do everything in his power to make a good life for himself and the people he cares about.

Oh, and the fact his semblance is the Ten Shadows Technique from Jujutsu Kaisen might also make things a lot easier.

Hopefully.

Honestly though, how hard could taming Mahoraga actually be?

Knowledge is power.

The ultimate manifestation of this concept would be the so-called Laplace's Demon, a theoretical entity that could determine the future of the entire universe based on the complete knowledge of everything and the underlying rules that govern their behavior.

Common sense dictates that such an entity could not possibly exist, as the thoughts and emotions of a sentient being can hardly be predicted even with thorough knowledge of their character, let alone the countless beings that exist throughout the sea of stars.

Even so, a man could still dream, no?

An erotic gothic fantasy of counterfactual modernity, set in Svet Dmitrin, a thinly-disguised anachronistic synthesis of soon-to-be-Soviet Odessa and Great War era Leningrad, during a protracted stalemate between the revolutionary Red Guard and the increasingly desperate tzarist White Guard. ... more>>

Our narrator is Lev/Lyubov Morgenshtern, a gay bigender ex-rabbi who’s just returned to the Talons Ghetto sovyet — an autonomous workers-and-peasants commune of the kind that directly preceded the Soviet Union (and indeed the thing that the USSR named itself after) — after a stint on a psych ward … which followed a far longer stint living in the tzarist-held half of Svet Dmitrin with a bougie respectability-obsessed ex-boyfriend. He’s got nowhere to sleep, no assurance his old friends want to see him and the only workable plan he’s got is to find someone hot and soft-hearted to take him home for the night …

R18 for graphic gay sex; the story makes frequent use of reclaimed homophobic slurs and, well, it’s a story about gay soon-to-be-Soviet Jews — transmisogyny and transphobia, homophobia, and antisemitism are quotidian environmental hazards.
