*** NOTES & WARNINGS ***
⚙️ This story contains transgender and non-binary characters as well as nonconventional gender roles. It also contains graphic scenes of sex. If any of this isn't for you, please back away slowly.
⚙️ This story takes place in a steampunk world of my own creation. The year 1937 would usually place it in dieselpunk territory, but this is a place where steam technology is still predominant.
⚙️ The gender-bending tag on this story references psychology changes or awakenings rather than physical gender swapping.
⚙️ For those of you picking this up for the sex, please note you're my kind of people! But also note it will take several chapters to build up to it. It starts in a very straight-laced culture but this will change, dramatically. However, it will take a while, so don't be too disappointed. <<less

This series is currently being rewritten. There's a lot I didn't know at the time was kinda fucked up in the premise itself concerning Ryudo, especially with the anti-asian violence that's been going on since the pandemic started.... more>>

Gonna stay in my lane for the protagonist of the new version, though that doesn't mean I won't have asian characters. Just maybe not an asian protagonist taken advantage of by a white cult. <<less

Theo Altair has a death wish.... more>>

He has tried everything he can think of to cut his life short but he can never seem to get it right, and somehow he always manages to survive. His latest attempt nearly destroys his ship, which houses a sentient A.I. named Shade who is not particularly thrilled with Theo’s antics, and the duo is forced to make an emergency landing on a nearby farming moon to make repairs.

There Theo meets Dimitri, a farmer-cum-engineer with a penchant to sing away his worries. The two form an unlikely friendship and when Theo tries to run away from his feelings, Dimitri isn’t quick to let him go so easily. He takes it upon himself to join Theo on his flight to the next star system — with some help from Shade — and Theo is forced to face his feelings head on.

But there are some things lurking in space that are more frightening than letting yourself be cared for.

"What?" A soldier asked himself as herself and quickly hid behind a tree.
The sounds of swords and spears clashing, arrows whizzing dangerously close, resounded... more>> throughout.
"Where am I?" She asked confused.
One second she was living her ordinary life yet the scenery suddenly changed.
Her body felt pulled down.
She looked down to stare at her chest covered with armour, heaving up and down.
She touched a part were a sword seemingly had pierced as there was a hole in the metal plate covering her chest.
*Rizzzz*
An arrow narrowly missed her head as she brought her head back up.
'Armour?' She thought, ignoring that her life almost ended.
"Then...." She muttered and swiveled her head to her left.
She saw a man shouting like an idiot, head over his head with a sword in his hands. Running towards her.
Cold seat ran down her back as a thought came to her head.
"Did I perhaps reincarnate in a battlefield?"

To those who are confused about what happened to this book.
The potential was wasted since after chapter one, I couldn't find a way to continue it.
So, I recycled the book into an original novel. Though for some stupid reason I can't change the type to novel anymore.
I hope I could at least make a great book with this. <<less

|13X WATTPAD FEATURED| ... more>>

After the Beacerika injures her, Rey battles with the Light and Dark sides of the Force while it takes her on a journey like none other-though supernovas and wormholes-right back to Ben Solo.

***

Rey remembers the day she and Kylo Ren/Ben Solo fought the Praetorian guards perfectly. Nevertheless, since the battle, something's changed inside her. She is not the Rey she remembers. Her Force abilities are no longer a gift; they are a threat. Everybody, including Rey's friends, fear her power.

She must sacrifice everything she loves and give herself to the conflicted Supreme Leader if she is to change her fate. Nonetheless, something is hiding in the ashes of the galaxy-the Descendant of Evil. Now it is up to Rey and Ben to stop this growing threat.

As the galaxy crumbles, Rey will face danger like she has never faced before, including a wormhole, a supernova, and a Force-sensitive monster who swears allegiance to her. As she moves closer and closer to her supernova, her friends will try to save her. However, at the end of the day, Rey and Kylo Ren are the only ones who can change the fate of the galaxy. They are the only ones who can take the name "The Rise of Skywalker".
