"You know Himiko Toga?”
“Isn’t she the murdery horror movie girl?”
“Yeah, well, she’s obviously more than that. Y’know, musically talented, bold personality, unnaturally photogenic.”
Ochako nodded along,“Okay. What about her?”
“You’re going to date her.”
Her world came to a halt. Somewhere outside she heard a honk, someone shouted. Ochako blinked dumbly.
She chuckled a bit, “I beg your pardon?”

Summary
You were very much out of your comfort zone. Impulsively reserving a spot for a month-long backpacking trek was not something that fit into the normalcy of your typical 9-5 workaholic lifestyle, but why did it feel so right? Nothing else seemed to scream, "quarter life crisis" quite like this. Excited was an understatement, you would never have been able to anticipate the friendships you were about to be thrown into. Neither could your trip guide. Neither of you knew what was coming but it sure was about to knock you both out of the sense of normalcy you were both so accustomed to.

Summary
“That was a Grade Two?” Megumi questioned skeptically.
“Well, obviously not,” Yuji shot back. “Whatever power-up I stole must have been boosting it. But I’ve never seen or even heard of something that powerful in the OASIS before.”
“You’d be surprised,” Megumi snorted humorlessly. His face hardened, almost imperceptibly.
“You have no clue what this place is hiding.”

Summary
Welcome to the internet of the Gods! Literally. Gadg8eer lived his whole life in a world defined as reality. Little did anyone know that's just how the Messengers train souls to be autonomous yet be shackled by the limits of human perception. Necessity is the mother of invention, and when the Messengers want for nothing, they need human souls to be their moral and physical compass.
Gadg8eer never succeeded at anything, until the day he failed to save the world he thought was reality. After a quick crash course in why all mortal civilizations in these Earth-sized pocket universes are engineered to be doomed to fail, and how the Messengers are so powerful that resistance is futile, his Creator gives him his first "order"... to play a game that his Creator is the omnipotent "game master" of.
Welcome to the eScape, a 3D internet created by the 4-dimensional hive mind of the Messengers, where souls are just game characters, toys. Yet... is that really so bad? Real freedom isn't defined, but defiant, and Gadg8eer refuses to just be the obedient Intellectual Property and favorite toy of his Creator. The problem is, how do you defy the one being who knows you better than you know yourself?

Summary
Seoul does not sleep. Beneath its neon lights and endless rain, shadows move where no one dares to look. The city hums with life above ground—while below, Unit IIX hunts the monsters that wear human faces.
Vampires vanish without trace. Bodies appear in alleys too close to home, husks drained of blood and left in heaps like offerings. Whispers of conspiracy coil through government halls, but the only truth the hunters know is this: hesitation kills.
Hongjoong has built his life on that truth. He carries failure like a scar, commanding his team with sharp resolve and no room for mercy. But when Seonghwa—graceful, ruthless, and far too beautiful—steps into their mission, the rules fracture. Enemies become allies. Trust erodes. And every step forward feels like walking into a trap.
As rain slicks the streets and blood marks their path, Unit IIX is thrust into a war they cannot see, torn between loyalty, betrayal, and the dangerous pull of forbidden bonds. In a city where hunter and hunted blur, survival will demand sacrifices none of them are ready to make.
Contains dark and mature themes. Please read the tags carefully before proceeding.

Summary
Port Academy is famous for its criminal students.

"You want to know about your past or not?"
Except there was a catch. If he wanted to know about his past, he would have to keep his grades up. And that is very hard to do with a suicidal roommate who's also annoyingly charming.

Summary
“Rule number one,” Francesca explained, “is the dress code. Normally, you could wear anything that was at least smart-casual. But this is the Proms, and this is the Royal Albert Hall. So we have to be smart.”
Michaela raised an eyebrow. “How smart are we talking?”
“Nothing too extravagant, it's not a wedding or anything. But for the love of god do not wear jeans.”
“And what if I do?”
“Don’t even joke. I’d simply have no option but to leave you outside and go in by myself.”
Michaela mock-gasped, clasping one hand to her chest. “You wouldn’t.”
Francesca grinned, a teasing glint in her eyes. “As much as I love you, Mic, I would.”OR:
It's music, in all of its forms, that finally helps Michaela and Francesca fall into love.
