Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

Geoff would not try.... more>>

High-achieving Ellie Gardner meets intentional slacker, Geoff Cobalt, throwing their previously steady life trajectories into chaos. Ellie is an adopted daughter of a midwestern crime family in dire straits, sent to Orange County, CA not only to get a college degree, but to make connections with another local emerging crime family, the Sinclairs. Geoff is the secret grandson (also adopted) of a legendary supervillain. Despite this, he prefers to eat junk food, light fires, steal, and play video games. Therefore, Ellie is recruited to keep his college studies on track in exchange for training from his grandfather. She needs to study, survive, and learn to budget both her money and time between her many obligations. She can't do it on her own. But when everyone is putting on a front (including herself), who can she trust?

And while they don't realize it, there are many hidden eyes on them.

"Ellie was on her own.
Geoff was on his own.
They only had each other."

All are original characters. There will be some illustrations/portraits painted by me using traditional mediums :) Sometimes the links get broken, so I really appreciate that if you let me know!

There are 8 arcs planned, this is currently the first arc. Sometimes I'll go through and update with more details/plot points as they shift around, so don't be surprised if some details in old chapters change!

Currently posting a new chapter every Saturday and sometimes Wednesday if I've made extra progress.

Set some decades into the future so I can play around with technology.

General content warnings/disclaimer: There will be some laws broken, violence, verbal threats, involuntary confinement, breaking and entering, arson, body modification, poisoning, occasional death. You might call the genre cozy crime. The tone will generally be kept light and the characters may seem callous at times. This is many of the characters are criminals. They are not meant to be role models. Do not take this story as legal advice, security advice, or as a guide on how to commit crimes. This is fiction and any resemblance to people, places, and things real or imagined are coincidence. <<less

James Brooks is an average high schooler in New Atlantis, a city teeming with superhumans. Despite his dad being an ex-hero and his sister Ren a genius scientist, James often feels overlooked, seeking refuge as a top battle mage in "Endless Fantasy II," an online game.... more>>

His life takes an unexpected turn when he walks away unharmed from a superhuman fight. James discovers he can morph into his game character, but with a catch: his avatar is a female demoness.

The setting is an alternate 2013 shaped by a Cold War experiment gone wrong, granting a fraction of people superpowers. However, this story isn't about superheroes; it's a blend of Mystical and Urban Fantasy, focusing on magical and mysterious elements that stay hidden from most of the world.

Anyways, as I'm not a native English speaker and this will be an experiment on my part, I will rely on AI as an editor & proofreader. If this doesn't bother you, then feel free to stay. Also, keep in mind this is my first attempt at writing something, so the way I write might change as I experiment with different styles.

~Basically a slow-burning 'magical' science fiction within a RPG-esque fantasy setting*~... more>>

An operation failed. One survived. Now a foreigner lost and stranded somewhere someplace, alien yet familiar, fantastical yet real. Found and rescued by another, similar but distinct; departed and never seen again. Left alone, yet again. Alien among aliens. Forced to hide and blend in… to a point; hunted, yet not really. Young, yet ancient. Analytical, yet aloof. A mind decayed by time, riddled with contradictions. Masks and faces worn as one, both without identity. A purpose long lost.

Gods scheme upon rotting thrones, shackled to wills beyond their own. Great powers devour their world, cursed with stomachs never satiated. Delusions of fantasy dreamt to swipe away the nightmares heralded by shooting stars. The world’s play motions forward to the choir’s tune as the past withers away; the stage evolves and changes, yet remains static and contrived.

Meaningless happenings, given meaning. People found, turned to characters. Memories, turned to story. Events in observation, narrativized. A protagonist found and placed on stage, made to dance the play of it which observes, indifferently yet with ever maddening interest.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Notes:
- This narrative has elements of philosophically absurdist underpinnings and influences, and may not be conventional in some ways.
- This story is a slow moving burn, but prone to flaring up.
- There is a strong emphasis on worldbuilding and character psychology.
- There are elements of mystery, but largely in the sense of reader engagement and understanding (and confusion).
- This is planned to be a large series and long-term project.
- Each "Pars" was initially 3,500 - 5,000 words, but most will be split into two chapters.

This story is primarily being published on RoyalRoad and will be ahead by several full Partes (for the time being): https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/80247/somewhere-someplace

I started this story on a whim and I'm excited to share it with you all!

Inside you'll find an overpowered protagonist with an ability that forces her to think rather than simply decimate everyone in front of her. She'll make mistakes, have her moments of triumph, and moments of utter despair. I plan on a Girl's Love subplot as well as a focus on building her organization and spreading her influence rather than oversaturating the story with action and violence. <<less
