Erick is just a normal dude who is definitely, positively, probably not transgender (no matter how envious he is of other trans girls). Or at least he that’s what he thinks, until his best friend shows him a trans femme forum.

Maybe she could even deal with all this gender stuff, if it wasn’t for the fact that she’s also started having weird hallucinations of a far off world. Is she losing her mind? The warrior girl who starts to share her thoughts and perceptions doesn’t seem to think so. In fact, it seems she knows a lot more about their strange connection than she lets on.

A story of friendship, plurality, magic, romance, and the power of self love.

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

Nati aims for a simple life.
He behaves strangely around people, struggles to make friends, and thinks of love as a foreign concept until he meets Alexandra. But he falls into the abyss.

Power struggles, betrayal, and medieval society make his life difficult, but he retains most of his memories and encounters the magic of this world. He faces all the new challenges head-on, but his adventures escalate into epic battles.
While Nati stands at the center of the story, the friends and enemies he makes along the way also share their point of view.... more>> Orcs and beastmen, humans, and even gods contest the title to rule over the continent. Will they let Nati live the peaceful life he wanted?

It has been a millennium since mankind abandoned its home. Corporations have carved up the heavens, and brought humanity to the stars with them to finalize those borders in blood. Their weapon of choice: Einherjar, ten meter tall humanoid mechs, powered by an exotic energy source as-of-yet barely understood.

Just under the illusion of peace sold to the public, mercenary pilots fulfill the wills of those who hold the reins of power. Pilots like Aria, a conscript turned freelance mercenary aided by her illegal and fully sentient AI companion, Nimue. After taking what seemed to be a routine job for a routine client, Aria and an erstwhile rival, Maks, find themselves facing down something older, more territorial, and far more deadly than any corporate force. And what’s more, their encounter has drawn the baleful eye of the deranged leader of the Penrose Foundation upon themselves. <<less

The Dollchip was created in military labs, as a means to quickly create usable soldiers. The entertainment industry put a... creative spin on its use.

Caught in one such fate, what does one do? With new knowledge and chrome, return the implant to what it was originally intended to be. So pick up the pieces and reassemble into something new.

So here goes, first ever story I'm deciding to flesh out and post. This is basically my first time writing anything longer than... more>> an essay, do please leave feedback. The idea for this story came from datashards in cp77 (See: Cyberpsycho Sightings: Smoke on the Water) and while I was at it I added a missfired isekai in there. I'm trying to find a way to have MC become OP without any system or magic bs, let me know how well you think I managed. When/if I eventually get there. I think I struggle with balancing environment descriptions and moment to moment acts with moving along the story in a timely fashion. Again, please do leave feedback.
Quick disclaimer: I'm not going to write smut in this. Writing gore I'm fine with, but actually writing any details about said tragic fate that I am teasing will not happen. Besides the unknown horror having more impact, some things are just better left unsaid. Also, I hope I ticked all the right boxes for Content Guidelines and stuff. Tag suggestions are welcome, alot of them are technically applicable, but maybe not accurate (yet, hopefully). I do not own Cyberpunk 2077 or any related copyrights.

Book 1 - JiangXi (complete)

Molam longs to return home after successfully stealing from the Empire. But the enigmatic Oracle dangles it just out of reach, assigning him another task: to steal wood from the sacred World Tree from the Empire.

The task sends Molam to an Empire city on the brink of collapse, its inhabitants desperate to survive the impending Winter's Sorrow. United with a group of allies handpicked by the Oracle, Molam realizes he is the Oracle's last piece in a decades-long plan to thwart the Empire's relentless ambition to reach Heaven.

Entering the fray comes with lurking enemies, mistrust among allies, and lethal scrutiny from all sides. Continually at risk of having his lack of aura exposed, Molam relies on his wits to navigate powerful individuals with misdirection and a facade of powers. To obtain the group's help and trust, he must balance his new responsibilities against his deeper, more personal goals.

There is no synopsis for Book 2 going forward to avoid spoilers.

Soune Argent wants a quiet life.... more>>

However, such a privilege is rare on Durendel.

Pockets of civilisation are kept in check by growth-hungry corporations and a stern-handed government. Any and all actions are watched by an orbital ring ready to stifle conflicts before they can start, scouring outcasts and undesirables from the face of the scarred planet. All for the sake of maintaining peace.

Soune Argent is a victim of this peace. Narrowly saved from the destruction of her home as a child, she was raised in and taught to survive the chaotic lands that litter the world. Now alone once more, she seeks to claim a spot for herself within an Oasis' and finally live a life free from struggle. The path to peace is hardly a straight one, fraught with conflicts and conspiracy. Along the way, Soune discovers she isn't quite as alone as she thought, or that the history of the world is as straightforward as it seems.

To survive on Durendel is a struggle, to thrive even moreso. To be happy is a fight against the system, a fight worth picking.

Inspired by a myriad of settings and stories spanning from the peaks of high fantasy and sci-fi to low, grounded character driven dramas; Stray Stars blends dark fantasy elements into a conflict-fueled future, focusing on the people who struggle against that world and the connections that are forged from it. <<less

In a world where gods are divided into the greater gods known as Crowns and the lesser gods known as Hallow, Elian, God of Healing and Protection, is known as the most powerful and beloved of the Hallows amongst mortals. Unlike the other distant and reclusive deities, he is known to travel the world, personally aiding troubled mortals. 

But his road to reaching this point is a long and harsh one, filled with pain, loss, manipulation, and betrayal. Upon choosing to share this story with an idealistic mortal princess, their respective views of heroism and altruism will be challenged. 

And what of the vicious and vile Sun Fiend who shares some connection with the God of Healing, past and present? 

Heroes, gods, kings, all. Are they not human too?

Chronicles of Arla follows the magical world of Arla where the forests sing, caves speak, and four kingdoms ruled by Ascended Incarnates—beings blessed with the power of the Arlan Gods—dominate and clash for power.... more>>

Set in the aftermath of The Hallow War, the deadliest magical war in Arlan history, the Chronicles of Arla tells the interconnecting stories of magical and non magical Arlans who are still reeling from their losses, and desperately trying to pick up the pieces of a once glorious land from the ashes; the stories of murderous, cunning Ascended Incarnates and the nightmares that seek to destroy them; the story of a forbidden love triangle that finds a cursed prince and a banished king warring for a beloved Queen; the story of a bisexual royal who must choose either the woman she is falling for or the cause she was born in; and the story of how two rebellious political factions rise in power, desperate for revenge, with the help of The Unseen—an immemorial shapeless, faceless being, with its own secrets, agenda, and hidden army. <<less

A typical romantic encounter is something that everyone would like to experience that opens their own chapter in life… or at least, that’s what a high-schooler Katsuto expects, but things is not really what it seemed for everyone.... more>>

A tale of adventure, love and revenge in the fair country of Faerie.... more>>

Thomas has nowhere to go when his lord dies of mysterious causes. His only real want is his inheritance, but he agrees to leave the camp with a herald from the court of Lord Hart, an exile from Faerie, in hope of gaining a new place. But Fate has other ideas and he's soon thrown into the midst of turmoil, intrigue, romance, and deadly plots.
If that's not enough, he's turned into a frog, at least for some of the time.
If he can survive the Court and his mistress's petty whims, he will gain his birth right, his revenge - and much more besides....
.............................................................................
Estienne's a sucker for a pretty face. Most people he meets are a sucker for his. But when he encounters one who doesn't seem at all affected, he falls hard. There's only about a hundred things standing in his way, and when he's reminded that the Faerie trade in green eyes is still alive and kicking, he's also reminded that the last time he was in love almost got him killed. And that distractions are deadly.
If only he learned from his mistakes....

There are two main POVs, but now and then I will delve into another. Don't be alarmed, I'm good at pretending I know what I'm doing. The episodes work in a spiral knot, so to speak, so it's necessary now and then to weave some random strands in.

While this will be quite light, here's the TWs if you need them:
Explicit m/m scenes, cruelty, indentured servitude, murder and gore. <<less
