Life moved at a snail's pace for Leon Smith. Working a dead-end job while taking a seemingly indefinite hiatus from college had done wonders to... more>> demoralize the young writer whose only remaining joy was posting work to an online fiction site. One night, after a lightning storm ruined his latest chapter, he came face to face with something he never expected: one of his own characters. <<less

The edges of time and space met in a single place, Earth. Soon, terror and chaos reign on the whole world as new gates opened followed by a flood of beasts and monsters. The gates rattled the whole world, letting it taste massive destruction. ... more>>

The world map as everyone now it was not more. The once-great nations fell one by one. Like dominoes, they all stumbled. Great was the fall!

But the skies and heavens hadn't abandoned men. Along with destruction rose new creations. The humans were blessed with the Gifts of the earth. They wielded the power to twist logic and magic.

The myth became realities in the hands of the wielders.

“Xenia: Linden’s Luxury Stellar Vacation Destination!”... more>>

Not so luxurious for Gale Rossings, a Linden Company employee struggling to protect worker health and safety on the under-development resort planet. Honestly, she’d sooner expect an alien invasion than any positive change…

(18+ Slow Burn, F/F main pairing with very heavy use of wholesome consensual D/s kink elements including drug/medical play, mind alteration and more. There will eventually be sexual content, but those chapters will be optional and labelled as such in a foreword. The setting as a whole is centered around benevolent aliens domesticating other sapients, including humans, and keeping them as pets, so reader discretion is advised.)

This work is set in the "Human Domestication Guide" collaborative universe.

A private investigator searching for a missing person wakes to find his soul stranded in a body that's not his own... and that's not even human, or male! Trapped in a pocket dimension filled with traps and trials, Joe doesn't know who to trust, or whether to rely on his strange new body. Synchronize... or die! But are there fates worse than death?... more>>

SYNCHRONY::OVERRIDE! is a human-AI collaboration between Krake (a large language model run by NovelAI.net) and RiderEmma, a human. See our author bio for details, and don’t read if you want to avoid AI-infested creative output! This is an experiment, and we’re trying to make it good, but AI-generated content has plenty of issues.

New chapters will be posted occasionally; this is a shorter series in the same universe as Succubated! (See other related series below.)

Note on tags: this series involves non-consensual gender modifcation and sexual situations with dubious consent, as the characters are trapped in a fiendish magical prison. The LitRPG / System elements of this story are very non-standard as they're linked to the relationship between an artificial body and the soul that inhabits it. <<less

One hundred years ago, being diagnosed with the "affliction" was the kiss of death. Whether by mutation or firing squad, Linnaeans lived notoriously tragic lives. The few that lived suffered from irreversible mutations. These creatures, few as they were, inspired legends of werewolves, mermaids, and sirens. ... more>>

Then came the treatments for the Linnaean affliction. The discovery of temporary gene repression meant that the development of mutations could be slowed and managed. This created an "unholy" new race that shared the DNA of both humans and animals.

Feared and hated by the outside world, they created a stronghold to develop their medicines and amass their power. Today, Linnaeans from all over the continent live in the City of Mendel and train under the renowned Professor Corax, a brilliant and eccentric geneticist.

Just before her eighteenth birthday, Ember is diagnosed with the affliction. Suddenly, instead of moving into her dorms and studying with the brightest in the country, she is whisked off to the City of Mendel by government officials who are as scared of her as she is of them. As she contends with a new city and her own treatment, she'll also have to face the tension of the half-baked treaty between the Linnaean people and the outside world.

There's no doubt - life won't be easy in a city where the population is able to harness the abilities (and instincts) of animals.

Do you think that you are a true otaku? The weeb that consumes one terrible rom-com light novel adaptaion after another? Do you think you are so experienced in the field of cliche-packed harems, that you might as well just get isekai'd into one and guide your confused friends toward the 'True End'?... more>>

Hiro Chikakane would answer 'yes' to all of the above. Although he heroically decided to reject his otaku self, his fate had other plans for him.
One day, during his very first date with his very first actual 3D girlfriend, both of them get hit by the infamous truck and find themselves transported into... a harem, rom-com light novel with a ridiculously long title.

As something of a scientist himself, Hiro is faced with the most weeb challenge of all - To perfectly recreate all the rom-com cliches and thus finish the storyline with the help of totally original cast of The Main Girl, The Tsundere Childhood Friend, The Not-Related-By-Blood Younger Sister and (not so) many more.

Will Hiro and the team discover the secrets of the anime-esque world they found themselves in? Will they actually make this goddamn maid cafe in the 'School Festival Arc'? And most importantly, will Hiro decide... WHO IS THE BEST GIRL??? <<less

Tannel died young, yet his legacy as a mage remains unparalleled. A prodigy in the magic of machinery, his techniques have not been fully replicated three hundred years after his passing, and the creation of an artificial life has never been successfully attempted again. But the greatest of his deeds was one that cost him his life, a sacrifice that he made willingly to halt a catastrophe, though then he did not yet understand the true extent of the threat to the entire world.... more>>

Never did he expect that he would yet live again. Nor would he have wished for it, for the terrible price for his second chance was paid by his own family, who had taken on his mantle of sacrifice in his absence. Centuries have passed and the world is no longer as he once knew it. The body he now inhabits was someone else's, and even the nature of his own existence eludes his understanding. But what has not changed is the weight of his responsibilities.

But it is also his chance to tackle the threats that remain, that had forced him to make the ultimate sacrifice, to solve the mysteries that he never had the time to unveil, but which nonetheless would not let him rest at peace. With ancient things on the move and numerous magics at work that evade his comprehension, these are challenges to his pride that can't be left unanswered.
