Determined to assist her father in his research, Prim follows him as they journey toward a nearby dungeon, where an enigmatic ritual will be held. Betrayed at the last second by her sole remaining family member, it is only a young priestess' words that save her from slavery or worse.

Aden... Aden had an ugly childhood. It taught him how to fight and survive, taught him how to run and hide and cut ties. Taught him that he wasn't born right. It didn't teach him much else. So Aden ran.... more>>

Aden grew up. Discovered the world, and crossed an ocean. Made his life his own. Soul-deep pain notwithstanding, he fought to be happy. Aden made do.

Until the aliens invaded his neighborhood.

What to do when you have a rifle in hand, and are damn good with it?
What to do when the rifle isn't enough, when the only way to save a girl and her mother from death, is to die himself?

Aden makes his choice, and is rewarded beyond his wildest dreams. Or perhaps...exactly to his wildest dreams.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Follow Aden as he alters his DNA with the power of Vanguard science to become what, and who, he wishes to be. Accompany Tinea as she greets the world and promptly explores new places, voluntarily or not. Watch as she meets new people; one in particular, one in terrible need of cuddles.

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

This work is set in the universe of RavensDagger's Stray Cat Strut, but it ISN'T necessary to read that first. I stay close to the canon, and develop my own characters.

Tinea and Leah was submitted by myself to compete in the April '23 SCS Fanfiction Contest. It took second place, a single vote behind the winner!

Though TnL started out as a fanfiction, it has since evolved to be something larger, something that could stand on its own, and it will only continue to grow.

Thank you for reading. :)

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

What to expect:

- gratuitous violence against unthinking aliens
- get points, buy gear
- cybernetic upgrades
- organic augmentations
- a perhaps more serious approach to transforming male -> female
- maturity from both female leads
- girls' love, from the soft and cuddly, to the (clearly marked) steamy and kinky explicit
- many, many chapters

College is supposed to be an exciting time, an opportunity to meet new friends and make lifelong relationships. However, Kaitlyn was never the social type. Her awkwardness and nervous stuttering meant that just talking to people was hard enough, not to mention romance. ... more>>

Getting transported into a dating sim seems like the perfect opportunity to change that.

Faced with five handsome leads to pursue, the future looks bright and filled with possibilities. But as she fumbles through grueling classes, terrible advice, and gaming the system in Heartthrob University, it seems that getting isekai'd might not be the magical cure-all she hoped for. But that's ok. Even if cruel reality threatens her do-over, she can always try again.

And again.

And again. <<less

A goddess of winter decides to conceal her identity so as to test the morality of humans-- mostly because it's the latest trend among deities, and she wants to be more popular. However, when a beautiful woman offers to take her in from the cold as long as she's obedient, she's not sure if the woman is being good or evil, and decides to play along for a little while.... more>>

The other woman, on the other hand, has no idea she isn't actually coercing the goddess into becoming her plaything.

Within a desolate realm, where discarded worlds were stitched together, a rupture tore open, releasing a small child into this fragmented expanse.... more>>

Above him, the sky revealed three eerie moons, while an ominous black mass loomed ominously in their wake.

Disoriented and engulfed by a putrid stench, the child awakens amidst a swamp, its twisted trees groaning under an oppressive haze.

In the distance, the echoing caws of crows intensify the sense of foreboding. To his bewilderment, a haunting figure emerges, laboring beneath a cart laden with lifeless bodies.

Fear and confusion grip the child's heart as he grapples with the enigma of his own existence. Who is he, and what dire fate has led him to this grim landscape? The grinning figure draws nearer, exacerbating the boy's terror.

Unbeknownst to him, his journey will unveil a profound transformation—an ascent to become the embodiment of fear itself, or perhaps... a beacon of hope amidst the encroaching darkness.

PD: I don't like writing synopsis, if you want to see a poor attempt at a fanfic that starts off simple but delves into the reality of being a superhero and the meaning of life, you are more than welcome to follow this story. I wholeheartedly welcome you to my first writing project ever, and probably not the last.

PD;PD: Won't have a cover for a while, trying not to use AI art to make one is kind of difficult and the best I could come up with falls short of being decent. Will probably set one up soon though. <<less

She enjoyed the sounds around her: rustling leaves, snow, winter—the season's name is winter. Musing, she hummed a sound, distancing herself from the noise of people being killed.
The horse beneath her stilled as she looked to the ground. Her head tilted aside a blue circle. A blue circle, another gate, she jumped from the horse's back and walked through the blue.

Home.

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.

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.
