Summary
In the grand tapestry of the multiverse, Katarina Claes, the venerable villainess, had long since carved an indelible name for herself in the hallowed halls of Societer. Her life, a grand opus of cunning and indulgence, had not only granted her the singular honor of a resplendent harem but also the bittersweet blessing of mortality. Yet even as the sands of time slipped through the hourglass of her existence, fate, with its capricious whims, had deemed her story not yet complete.
Reborn as Monkey Girl Chiaru once again in a world unmarred by the specter of danger, the erstwhile villainess found herself once more graced by the presence of her erstwhile paramours, their souls intertwined across the ether of eternity. And in this new life, unshackled from the yoke of peril, Chiaru and her coterie of comrades discovered anew the true essence of existence - the joyous pursuit of camaraderie and competition in the realm of gaming.
I have two versions of this story, this is the newer one but I kinda broke up the original one because of RL issues.

Summary
What if the unlucky adventurer was just a meek high schooler?
What if the useless goddess was a lonely otaku?
What if the explosion loli was a sensitive chuunibyou?
What if the masochistic crusader was a closeted transfer student?
What if all their nonsensical adventures, were just the machinations of a depressed GM desperately trying to wrangle a story out of these peculiar individuals' bountiful shenanigans?
Kazuma, Akari, Megami, Luke, and Yuzaki are all members of the Tabletop Roleplaying club. At the table, they're the motley crew of abnormal adventurers we all know and love. In real life, they're a gaggle of awkward teens trying their best to be good citizens.
This is the story of both.TLDR: Basically Konosuba, but everything is a tabletop roleplaying campaign.

And when you're bored out of your senses, you try to find some...amusement.Is it heretical to play games with the fallen primarchs? It should be.
But Kaldor Draigo cannot become a heretic, so it is not. -

Summary
An account of a real TTRPG group's experiences of Tablestuck, and the stories spun therein.
Following will be an overview of three earlier sessions, then sessions four and five, which is the most prolific of the bunch, and the one the tags reflect. One through three are roughly connected to a canon in this universe. Four through five (which is currently ongoing) are connected to each other, and are by far the most prolific. Tablestuck four and five have been going on for a little over a year, and I am the sole writer of the campaign, including the terminal prompts, NPC dialogue, and overall story.
I consider four and five to be where a larger story begins to play out, and as such, a lot of this piece is going to be focused on that.*The tags are reflected in Tablestuck four and five. If you can skip the preamble to get to all that; chapter four should be where the Tablestuck four narrative starts.
