    Summary

    Nakamura wasn’t going to take Hirose's friendship for granted. He had decided that for the rest of their high school years, he was going to smile and take all of this heartbreak and repressed emotions into stride and be the best friend Hirose ever had. And by the time high school got over, they’d be on their separate ways.

    “Nakamura, when we go to college, move in with me!”

    or, what happens when the guy you've been in love for more than 4 years suddenly asks you to become his roommate, just when you were planning to let him go?

    Summary

    Simon was seconds away from dying a horrific death. Blood filling the submarine, being in the jaws of an eldritch monster, his arm torn off, and countless other things. It seemed like a certain end, until he's suddenly surrounded by a blue light and spat out onto a ship he doesn't recognize, no longer drowning in blood or torn to shreds by rows of teeth.

    Soon after, the Captain and the Head Engineer of the ship find him and, after quickly understanding he's from another universe (and from the looks of it, a bad one), actually decide to help him, healing his fatal wounds, and welcoming him to their colony, letting him stay for however long he likes.

    For Simon, it feels like it's too good to be true. A universe where the Quiet Rapture never happened, COI and Eden non-existent, and finally given a proper second chance to redeem himself from years of being "The Butcher". That is until he realizes that the cause of the Rapture haunts him still, both in mental and physical ways, and that may not only ruin his second chance at life...but this new universe as well...

    Summary

    NOTE: HIATUS ALMOST DONE!!! SORRY LOL I'LL BE BACK THIS WEEK

    It is seven months before the events of Iron Lung.

    You are a C.O.I convict, serving two years' penance for a petty crime. After an outbreak in your already over-cramped prison, you are forced to relocate to a new holding cell on the ship. The only issue is that this cell is already inhabited.

    Your new cellmate is known only as the Convict. A Brother of Eden, and a butcher of men. He is everything you’ve been raised to hate, and you are everything he was raised to despise. However, in such close and heated proximity, you quickly realize that human nature has little concern for factions or sides.

    Through a series of events leading up to his final day, the man once known as Simon is forced to explore his traumatic past, his conflicted present, and the future he yearns to be worthy of, as you both navigate a difficult and untenable relationship.

    In a dying world, you must hold on to anything. Even if it hurts you.

    Summary

    Your decision turned out to be a massive mistake, not because everyone you knew and loved died and the world was plunged into abyssal madness, but because they weren't.

    And you had to deal with that.

    Summary

    After 72 years, the Palazzo Theater has finally been sold and is being restored to its former glory. Due to various hijinks, you're (temporarily) in charge of cleaning up the abandoned building, largely alone. It's tedious, difficult work...at least until you find a certain film reel already loaded into one of the projectors.

    The lil' animated fellow that emerges from it is funny, and dare you say even a bit charming...even if he's a bit enigmatic. But he seems harmless enough, and who could turn down the whimsy of befriending with a literal living cartoon character?
