    Summary

    Nagomi had a dozen different stories as to how Passenger ended up on the side of her face. A deal, a bet, a cursed rock she probably shouldn’t have picked up, a game briefly played in the cave she found it in, the winner whoever she felt like saying at the time. 
     
    The truth was she didn’t know. She couldn’t remember, and trying to remember in the days or weeks or months or years afterward just made something in the back of her head squeeze, trying too hard gave her a headache that wouldn’t go away for half an hour. 
     
    What she did know was that however it happened, it ended with her opening her eyes in a narrow cave with an entrance lined by rows of teeth, making it feel as if she were in a maw just big enough to fit her. The Hellmouth was rumbling in the earth below her, a sheer cliff dropping directly into it barely twenty feet away.

    (A story of Nagomi, Passenger, Psychopomps and Precognition.)

    Summary

    Tanguish is Tango's hels, and they get along a lot better than most hels and their hermits should. Unfortunately, the universe wasn't made to house both of them. Helsmets were made to return to their hermits eventually, making a complete person.
    Except what happens when the hels is the stronger of the two? What happens if they really don't want to be?

    [This fic started as a handful of one-shots on Tumblr and has slowly snowballed into something bigger. If you notice a writing/tonal shift throughout the course of the fic, especially in the earlier chapters, this is why!]

    Summary

    There is a boy digging a hole.

    There should be nothing special about him. He is one of many children digging holes, each and every one eager to get a spot on Cang Qiong Mountain. At a distance, there was black hair and shabby clothes.

    Yue Qingyuan could not look away from him.

    -

    In a world where they are the same age, Shen Yuan is going to try his very best to become the best friend of his favorite protagonist and prevent the blackening of Luo Binghe! Only, there is a problem.

    Shen Yuan looks way too much like the scum villain himself, Shen Qingqiu.

    Summary

    It's hard to think for yourself when you've never had to think before. It's worse when your problem-solving is all limited by modules worth less than the load they take in your processing.

    Unfortunately, flawed knowledge modules are better than no modules at all, which is what SecUnit003 aka "an idiot" now has to think of a way to get around without alerting either of the smarter, meaner, and cagier MIs that keep pinging it.

    I am an idiot and I have made a terrible mistake. Now I have to fix it before Murderbot, y'know, murders me.

    Summary

    After their third death, players are pulled back to their previous server via a pre-set admin tether.
    ...Well. They're supposed to be, anyway. Unfortunately for Pearl and Scott, however, things don't always happen how they're supposed to.
    This is a story of two friends thrown from a cruel game into a cruel world, and how they deal with it. (Spoiler: the same way they always do. With jokes and chaos.)

    ~

    By the walls. I'm actually doing it. I'm writing a crossover between Attack on Titan and Double Life.
    Updates depend on which is stronger: my sense of shame, or my heartfelt wish to see 5am Pearl terrorizing the Scouting Legion.
