Writing style is intentional. Can't guarantee a perfect reading. English is not my first language and there will prob be cringe. If you see them, please point them out for me. <3

Warning:
This fanfiction contains dark themes, including violence, trauma, and psychological manipulation. Any romance is a slow burn and primarily focuses on emotional connection, not physical intimacy. No explicit content will be shown.

Any semblance of romance doesn't happen until very late in the story, and certainly not while the cast are still children.

It takes inspiration from other fanfincs. Specially two:

Dreaming of Sunshine, by Silver Queen

A dark, science fantasy tale of a man, Subject 513, sent to another world as an experimental test subject.... more>>

WARNING: This is not your typical isekai, wish-fulfillment story. You have been warned.

In the year 2022, a mass-transit of test subjects occurred inside the confines of a vast, underground research facility. The 500 or-so individuals taking part in this secret experiment -- labelled: The 1st Beta Phase -- were force-transferred to another world under the direction of Project Prometheus.

These test subjects had one, singular role: to act as "baseline tests" for future, planned experiments.

Among the individuals taking part in the experiment, was Subject 513…

...sirens blared throughout the 4th Research Facility as an anomalous event transpired within one of the many transfer pods...

“Subject 513: missing. Force-transfer procedure has been cancelled. Foreign matter detected.”

Those were the last words uttered by the life-support system monitoring Subject 513’s vitals, as it shut down indefinitely.

As 513’s consciousness faded into the void, his physical presence left on Earth crumbled to dust, blanketing the floor of the transfer pod he was stored within, in grey ash...

...when he awoke, the last few years of his life had seemingly been plucked-away from his memories. And to make matters worse, he found himself trapped under the gaze of a ravenous beast, ready to tear him apart...

Join Subject 513 on his grueling journey of struggle, misery, and search for purpose, as he navigates through an unfamiliar world alone.

What to expect:
-Gore
-Horror
-Humor
-Multiple character focus
-Psychological elements
-Survival
-Tragedy
-Stubborn MC
-Dark, Science-Fantasy Isekai

My goals are to:
-Become a better writer

[Translation] Sypnosis:
One day, due to certain circumstances, I, Tsushiro Souta, a high school student attending a school far from my hometown, found myself living alone in an apartment. It wasn’t long before a stunning girl, Misumi Sayo, moved into the apartment next door. Sayo’s family runs a rural shrine, and as fate would have it, she had left her home behind to live here.... more>>

Sayo had been suffering from a condition called "psychogenic visual impairment" for the past year, caused by extreme stress. Her vision was so impaired that she could barely see ten centimeters in front of her.

“Neighbors should help each other out when they’re in need,” she had said.

I couldn’t just leave Sayo to fend for herself, so I began helping her with various things. In return, she would often cook meals for me, as a way of showing her gratitude.

As two people living alone, we started to rely on one another in small ways. Yet, as we spent more time together, I found myself startled by her actions and words on more than one occasion, my heart racing at the smallest gestures. Sometimes I was flustered, other times embarrassed...

But I had sworn off love. I had convinced myself that I didn’t believe in it. There’s no way I could ever fall for Sayo—no way!

Yet, as I learned more about the source of Sayo’s stress, it became clear that if her condition improved, her vision might return.

And if that’s the case, I must be the one to help her, without any ulterior motives. I have to be sincere.

“For some reason, I feel calm when I’m with you, Tsushiro-kun,” Sayo said one day, her soft voice breaking through my thoughts.

Little by little, as I spent more time with her, my distrust in love—once so steadfast—began to waver...

Grant, twenty years old, was tired of being a prisoner to his job, parents, and city. He had been fed to believe all of it was deserved. The thought of breaking free from his current life felt undeserved. But his ability to tolerate everything was wearing thin; he was about to crack. He began to wonder that maybe all the blame put on him wasn't entirely his fault.... more>>

A coworker told him about a small village, Lyros, where he could move. The price seemed too good to be true. Despite that foreboding feeling, he decided to leave his previous life behind. Could Lyros bring him the freedom he pursued? Or was it just another place that would take hold of him, refusing to let go?

Alexander Gerifalte is at the top of his game, literally, in the seat of a plane when the planet awakens and magic envelopes the world. In the wake of the Pulse, all that was electronic is gone, and Alexander is left to fend for himself in a world newly ascended to godhood. Those who survive must contend against the regions where magic bridges worlds, and monsters cross between. Gaia itself conjures beasts where they have been extinct for a century and which flourish under the ever present wash of mana that enriches the environment. ... more>>

What to expect:
A young man's journey full of struggle, pain, determination, and discovery in a land familiar but twisted.

Heavy survival and post apocalyptic themes, with a heavy dose of dark fantasy. I don't hesitate to use the word gritty.

There are new, improved, blue boxes! There are literpg elements which are not abused, but have a role in the story. Now here this, there will NOT be numbers go burr!!

There is magic, but not wizardry so to speak, and magitech is present, but not prevalent, especially at the beginning.

If you've read my other story then you have some idea what you're in for, if you haven't then I tell you now, you will be sitting on the MC's shoulder, right next to the devil in his ear that whispers paranoia. I like to write a story with real people in them, and real people think real thoughts, not all of which are useful, intelligent, or even very nice. This is the first book of a series and, in this one, the only person left to navigate the new world is our MC, alone. It's man vs wild out here, so don't go looking for help, it isn't coming for a while. I learned from my mistakes last time, this release will be full length chapters, as written, no mucking about with webserial chunking,However long the chapter is, is how it gets posted, typically about 6-10k words.

If all that sounds like a good time then welcome aboard, I hope you have fun.

Posting Schedule: Posting once per week until book 1 is complete. Book 1 has been released on Patreon if you want the whole thing and the advance chapters of book 2.

Disclaimer: I work full time and write for fun and to let the spiders out of my brain. That brain likes words, weird ones, and isn't afraid of a thesaurus and neither should you be. Not having fun? No problem, I encourage you to go somewhere else and have fun, life is short, I wish you the best. See my relentless grammatical and structural mistakes? Point them out, I'm pretty on the ball with fixing things, and I desperately would like to edit my work into a highly palatable state. Want to tell me how you would write my story? Write your own instead, we'll both be happier that way.

Souls Unlimited Online. A brand spanking, asscheeks reddening, new VRMMORPG that boasts of its promise to give each and every single one of its players, from the dumbest to the dumb, a Unique Skill of their own!... more>>

Such a premise, so enticing!

Riveting!

Mouth-watering!

So many VR gadgets immediately drenched in fluids of all kinds!

Enter Fira Dragonir. A very eager player with a dragonoid avatar being followed around by a scantily clad robot lady who is actually his system avatar, an AI assigned specifically to him. He ignores everyone else to instead talk to her!

Is he destined to go down the path of the edgy solo player who is very obviously overcompensating!?

But just then, a new challenger appears! Enter Gothra, a player with an avatar that looks very normal, a somewhat rarity in the age of The System where anyone's body can be freely modified as they see fit. But one look at her system avatar and you'd question if this goofy-looking character really belongs to such a normal-looking woman! A man with a very buff and large body, covered by a bear fur suit, then wearing a gothic lolita maid outfit on top of that bear suit, and donning a gun strapped to his shoulder as the final touch.

Wow, that's a lot! Slow down Gothra! Use some of that creativity for yourself!

This very likely duo found each other, taking the entire world of Souls Unlimited Online by storm! They said so themselves, so it must be true!

Follow their heroic destiny as they forge their bonds, discover the realms, vanquish their foes, and sometimes do stupid shit!

Ok, they do the stupid shit the most. Everything else is optional, actually.

But despite what others may say about them, no matter how many stares or cheers they may receive, none shall stop their rise as their names are forever engraved in the anals of history.

DEAD 11/17/2024... more>>

Matthew Coulson's life is choked with anxiety. He's stuck at a job that can barely support him and haunted yearly by the anniversary of the disappearance of Lucas Lynn. Each year, Lucas' mom calls and he is reminded of the wasted chances he had at confessing his love for him. Up until Lucas revealed that she was actually a transgender woman, and that she had been trying to contact aliens to see if they could help her transition faster. The next day Lucas was gone.

Seven years later and Matt is still fumbling with his own identity. His only recourse is using the same communication device he saw Lucas using to vent out his frustrations to the ether. Soon Matt finds himself at the center of an intergalactic conspiracy, and his only hope is Lucas, now Cassandra, the very person he blames for ruining his life.

Author's note: This is a book that I have come to treasure greatly. After failing to find a traditional publisher, I have opted to share it online with the community at large. In the end, I just want someone to read my work and hopefully find a connection they might need. <<less

[I was reborn after being murdered because of the true wish that I made for revenge against all human-peoples, but now I’m alive again and I actually just kind of don’t want to do that anymore; so I opened a shoe-store instead!]
__________________________________________________
After being violently torn from her old life in the natural world after being grotesquely murdered by miners belonging to members of the common races of humans and elves, Mirabelle the fairy makes a true wish to anything that can hear her dying screams, beckoning the old powers of the forgotten reaches to allow her to take her revenge against those who stole all things precious from her in this life.
... more>> 40px;"> Her wish is granted. However, upon being reborn in an age far after when she originally died, and all traces of her old life having been erased by the unforgiving passing of time, she finds herself alone with a spirit as crushed as her old body had been, as while she has been granted her wish for power, all of the people who wronged her have long since died already.

The cruel fairy forsakes her true wish to make the world worse than she left it and instead finds a new life in a very unlikely place — the large, nearby human city that hadn’t existed when she last knew the area generations upon generations ago.

Needing a way to survive as the only fairy within the human capital, if not the only one at all in the world, Mirabelle lives in secret within the vibrant city full of magic and adventurers, adapting to the ways of the human-people, as the fairy ways do not suffice to survive within this new, industrious world that is the total opposite of her old one, until she finds her path forward as a shoemaker's apprentice!

Living in secret and in fear, unable to reveal herself because of her own anxieties, the fairy practices the art of shoemaking in secret, the old bargain of her rebirth not forgotten by her or by the dark stars that granted it, as she spends her days making boots as she tries to figure out what life exactly is for a cruel fairy or a cruel human, both of whom exist under the curious glow of starlight that seems to wait ever so patiently for the bargain to be fulfilled.

Will Mirabelle succumb to the cruel desires to make the humans pay for what they did to her and her people, or will she find a new way forward, breaking free from the spiritual shackles of revenge?

You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular Wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel.

Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. <<less

Fanfic of this Twitter manga: https://twitter.com/sasakisaki9646/status/1241338062560317440... more>>

I started writing this for fun way back when the artist was actually working on this specific one. For those who have heard of it, they ended up canceling it 30 days in, leaving the story incomplete. They did have another one set up that I really enjoyed, but since that ended up getting a different ending than I expected, it seems a shame to leave the original off the way it did. So here's my take on it. First 30 days are chapters written based on the image of that day, anything after that is my plotline.

Of course, credit goes to sakisaki9646 for the original story and characters. Image is also theirs, translated by Eidetic Memoscans. <<less

You ever play the game, The Long Dark?... more>>

GO play it. It is by hinterland games. It is an AWESOME game, if you like frozen, FPS survival games. The focus is on survival. It is a harsh game where you are the last surviving man or woman on a frozen earth after the sun goes crazy and destroys all technology with continuous EMP bursts. It is like wandering a beautiful watercolor painting that periodically tries to murder you.

I absolutely loved the game.

I put in over 2000 hours and survived with one character for 1000 days. I put in a mod that stopped the earth from rotating so the sun never rose again and it got down to -100 degrees Celsius. It is one of the few games where the harder you make it, the more fun it is. Well, it is for me.

So I started writing a story from the point of view of my character. There is one building that is the HARDEST base to have. The Quonset Garage. It is surrounded by violence, but if you are good with a bow, it is actually surrounded by MEAT. The saying in the game goes, The wolves want to eat you, the bears want to kill you, but the moose want you to SUFFER.

The Quonset Garage has all three.

But as I wrote the story, it evolved and changed and became sort of philosophical collection of musings. The Origin Of The Quonset Manager became a sort of Eldritch Horror story over time with all sorts of things and ideas and concepts. There is a reason the story took such a dark turn which I explain half way through, but in this version, I will move why I wrote the story to the end. It is a bit dated, but I want you to get the full effect. I won't edit the story. I am including it, errors and all, as is.

However, the story also has a number of, shall we say, Foundational Myths of the Eldritch-Verse.

When you read this I want you to look at it from the point of view as if you were a traveler. A transmigrator bouncing through life after life, traveling through a strange and bizarre cosmos, just trying to figure out what is going on in the bigger picture. Then, you find this collection of papers. They seem to be i no particular order, but what you DO know is, the local government is trying very hard to destroy every copy of this collection.

Someone doesn't want the truth known.

And so, having visited a number of shady and unusual bookstores, you find a copy of this... manuscript. he person selling it simply explains it is cursed and that you shouldn't take it. When you insist, he asks what you are willing to pay and takes it without haggling. Upon you paying the agreed upon price, he immediately pushed you out the door, turns the sign around to read, 'CLOSED', and turns off the light. You retire to the home of your most recently occupied body and find a quiet spot to consume your newly acquired prize. As you read, at first it seems to be nothing more than the ramblings of a madman, but over time, he reveals knowledge that, simply put...

He should not have. <<less
