A son's character or behavior can be expected to resemble that of his father. This considerable resemblance gave birth to the phrase "Like father, Like son". In a society where fathers are heroes for their sons and sons proud of their fathers, a coming of age story that focuses on the other side which leads to flowers being delivered inside a paper bag.... more>>

Why do people get excited when they see a falling star? Why do they excitedly ask their friends to make a wish? Don't they know they shouldn't place their hopes on such a thing? It is nothing more than a star that has lost its life and luster. To fulfill young girls' foolish fantasies at the expense of a heavenly body, just how cold and ruthless whoever made this superstition is? Why does a star have to fall to grant wishes? Don't they know even stars have yearnings, too? ... more>>

Standing on the stage and loved and worshipped by thousands, Julia felt cold and alone. She was basked in light while the rest of the world was veiled in the dark. In her eyes, there was no mirth. In her heart, there was nothing but emptiness. Looking back, all her sacrifices, blood and tears paved her way to where she was now. But in the end, was it worth it?

In a warm, sunny room, Erik stood in front of his students. With a warm smile and gentle voice, he read verses through verses of poetry with passion. He leafed through the pages gently like a man caressing his lover. His voice drifted into the gentle afternoon, making young girls' cheeks blush. He was oblivious of his effect on their young hearts for all he cared for was literature. His world basked in the soft, afternoon light, was simply perfect.

My name is Kobayashi Miya, a freshman at 'Haru High School'.... more>>

I am what people refer to as an untouchable existence. A girl that is just for them to admire and judge as they see fit. A mannequin that can be manipulated by their overbearing expectations and desires.

Even those around me see me as someone of exalted status, someone superior to them, someone they should look up to and admire for what they think I am... A perfect woman who excels in everything. 

However, all of them are completely wrong, I am just a normal girl... Scared, timid, naive, and above all else, hopelessly in love...

 

My name is Kawashima Takumi, a freshman at 'Haru High School'.

I am just an above-average student you could find anywhere. A run-of-the-mill high-schooler who gets enough marks and plays sports for enjoyment.

My existence is that of a person whom one could easily live without feeling a sense of loss, but wouldn't mind having around to give their lives that extra something. 

Or, is that just how I want people to perceive me as I peacefully wash away my quiet high-school days? 

Nobody would care enough to find out if not for her entering my life. <<less

What makes a terrifying villain?... more>>

Is it ruthlessness? Is it how powerful they are and how many buildings they can down in one blow? Is it how hard they are to kill, contain, or get rid of in any manner? Is it their knowledge of a hero’s true identity in a world where secrets must be kept? Or is it perhaps how they seem to be perfect in all their actions, defeating the hero at every step of the way throughout to the last one, only to humiliate them one last time before declaring themselves the winner in the grand scheme of things?

Isabella Blair is perfect. She knows all your moves before you even make them. All your ambushes are faced with traps and she dodges all your blows like it’s child’s play. Catching her is impossible because she’s always ten steps ahead of you. She says she calculated everything, but she messes up in every fight. She loses far more than she wins, sometimes a hundred times for just one small victory.

Yet, she is perfect. How is that possible, you may ask.

That’s because she has the uncanny ability to return to the past whenever she makes a mistake. All that’s left in the end can only be what’s perfect if all the realities in which you’ve lost are gone, after all. And that makes for one hell of a terrifying profile.

One terran totally fails to have any meaningful impact on an intergalactic civilization... more>>

Inspired by the Human Domestication Guide setting but utterly missing the point, choosing to focus on a misinterpretation of the affini's philosophy and how, to at least one silly little human, it bears a striking similarity to benevolent nihilism.

Hi there, in this story I wanted to predominantly build a world around a strong female character determined to do what it takes to escape a horde of murderous, rapist goblins and get back home. ... more>>

I also wanted to see how many outrageous, fantastical interspecies sexual encounters I could plug into a single work of fiction. Because, why not? And on top of that, I wanted to tell an adventure story that journeyed across an expansive landscape of immense floating islands. That’s always sounded cool to me.

The concept of flying men with magical healing semen seems disturbingly interesting to me as well. More on that later.

Trigger warning: A lot of unusual and perhaps disturbing sexual bits in here. Plenty of fantasy violence, but not a lot of swearing—at least in English. At least not compared to a Tarantino film. Let’s see, what else? There’s no inappropriate child stuff in here. I’m wholeheartedly against that crap and you should be too. But there are giant spiders with dicks and someone gets shoved numerous times into a vagina the size of a doorway. So there’s that. Spoiler alert.

Also, note here: I do not condone rape. It's used as a plot device in this story, yes, but never in a way that would encourage the reader to commit the act in real life. Rape is bad. Rapists should be sent to prison. I also don't condone suicide or any form of violence.

Anyway, enough from me. Please enjoy Journey Back to High Dawn. (Chapters published weekly on Monday, or, like, whenever I want.) <<less
