    Summary

    “I think you’re mistaken, I feel like you want a surgeon,” you said, eyeing him strangely. “I’m a medical examiner.”
    “Are they that different,” the man questioned.
    “Uh, yes?”

    Or: you try to be a good samaritan by saving the life of a boy that was brought into your office to be autopsied. somehow it turns into you becoming the private doctor for a crime lord despite the fact you are much more qualified to take people apart than you are to put them together. you don’t know what you did, but surely you did not survive gaokao and medical school and fellowship only to have to survive him too.

    Summary

    War is a terrible thing. It takes, devastates, and terrorizes, leaving many without homes or loved ones to return to, but without it, there would not be development. Fundamental and enduring change starts at conflict; no one has ever gone out of metamorphic change unscathed. An issue, or the exaggerated idea of it, will be resolved, but some gain and some lose from it. Indeed, war is a terrible thing, and you were an instrument of it.

    Summary

    Congratulations! Somehow you were selected to be part of the immersive experience of the Love and Deepspace video game.

    Oh, but before you get excited, this time you're not the main character, but a secondary character. Which means you'll participate in the game in hard mode!

    Do you think you can pass it with three stars, and find a way out of the game? Remember, you're not the main character.

    The boys aren't supposed to be in love with you.

    Good luck, dear Deepspace Hunter!

     

    ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
    (a reader-centric fic set around the plot of Death and Rebirth, the latest update to the game, with an eventual, slow-building romance; super slow compared to what everyone is probably used to, i'm so sorry).

    Summary

    She once watched Caleb through a screen, yearning for the unwavering love he gave to someone else. Then she woke up in his world—just another lost child, experimented on and discarded.

    Years later, she finds him again. But she doesn't remember her as his friend, he suspects she's with the enemy.

    If fate wasn't cruel enough, Caleb loses his memory once more. And with a blank slate, he sees her. And he falls.

    She knows he's only pursuing her because he can't remember how much he hates her. She can't accept his advances. She has to reject him. She must.

    Summary

    You would love an opportunity to freak out, properly lose your marbles and the like about– well, everything. But you’re in a public space, there’s people there, living breathing beings who did not sign up to be front row to an amateur performance of Shakespearean level of breakdowns.

    -

    This is so extremely self-indulgent. I just wanted to write being an npc in Love and Deepspace. Will you eventually get kinda swept up in the plot? Probably. But, and I can't emphasize this enough, you don't want to.

    Upd. There will be romance, oops. Adding relationships tags as we go.

    Summary

    “Why did you kiss me?”
    You tilted your head. “We shared in tongues.”
    He flushed slightly, frowning at you. “Yes, I’m aware. But I am asking why?”
    You regarded him with equal if not more confusion. “Do Lemurians not have such magic?”

    On what is supposed to be a romantic evening with his long lost love, Rafayel’s night takes a turn when instead he finds himself kissing you—a selkie who has lost her skin.

    Summary

    When he begins to lean in, your heart pounds and your stomach flutters. It's a thumping bass that drowns out all other conversations and music around you. All you can hear is your heart. All you can smell is his cologne.

    All you can see is him.

    Warmth flutters and circulates through your body. A warm that whispers comfort and safety. A warmth that draws you into Sylus just as he draws into you.

    This warmth calls to you. Beckons you. It smothers all the guilt, denial, and determination to stay the course.

    It says, kiss him, kiss him.

    “Don’t you know by now that I adore you?” He mutters into your ear.

    You’re desperately in love with a man who already belongs to another.

    All you’ve ever wanted was to love and be loved. But as the only person to ever be born without a soulmate, you know nothing about what that really means.

    The universe itself cursed you to never know the deepest and truest love there is for a reason. Because you're unworthy. And you should’ve known your poor attempts to pretend to know what it means to be whole wouldn't last. After all, everyone will always choose truth over your lies. Why should Sylus be any different?

    Summary

    “Stray,” he murmurs. “You don’t belong here.”
    She shivers.
    He lifts his gun.

    “But if you want to survive, I’ll make you one of mine.”
    She doesn’t understand what he means. Not yet.
    But she’s about to.

    Because the moment she takes his hand—

    There’s no turning back.

    //

    Reincarnated into the brutal N109 Zone, she was never meant to be part of this world—let alone his. Sylus was fated to love another, the one he had waited for. And yet, it was her he held at night, her name he whispered, her presence that unraveled him.

    She tells herself it’s temporary. That she’s only giving in because of his intensity, his touch, the way he whispers her name like a secret meant for him alone. That she’ll never love him. Never want more. But the more time they spend together—through stolen nights, whispered confessions, and a desire neither can deny—the more she begins to hope for something impossible.

    But when MC finally arrives, destiny comes knocking and she knows she should walk away.

    Yet fate has never dictated Sylus’s choices.
    Because if fate had mattered—he never would have fallen in love with her.

    Summary

    Six different timelines. In each one you find yourself taking over the life of an extra in the game you had been so smitten with. In each life you’re different, whether it’s a different job, or where you live and even your personality. But only one thing remains constant, you’re determined to avoid them. You’re not in the body of the MC so it’s not like they’ll even notice.

    You really shouldn’t have underestimated them.
