Summary
Kim Jiwoong is living a very struggling life. He lost his family, is working in a toxic work environment, and can't seem to connect himself with this world.
And despite having somewhat of a support system, he still can't find satisfaction in his already manic life.
One day, one of his colleagues tells him about a fantasy-based social game that is rumored to haunted. He didn't think much of it at first and just passed it up as people being paranoid.
However, he unknowingly purchased the game, thinking it was a book. And, despite knowing any better, he decided to play the game out of curiosity.
But once he hit play, he was sent to a whole new world. Literally...

Summary
Somehow, he ended up in the world of the game he used to play. A world where he can die at any moment if he makes a mistake. A world filled with champions who can crush him like a bug. A world with new wars breaking out as some of those same champions are not who they...oh look, somehow he became a summoner. Neat.
An AU-Crossover, Canon-Divergence story with light gamer elements.

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
The chaos evolves.
Sharzad knows that Inazuma will be the hardest thing she's had to face to far, but she's not about to stand there and let Yoimiya die at the hands of the increasingly oppressive Shogunate. As shadowy forces work behind the scenes and its surviving Archon continues to pursue her misguided form of Eternity, Inazuma sits on the brink of all-out civil war or even revolution.
And even as all this happens, Sharzad herself has issues to deal with. Between increasing preparations for her ascension to Queen, her powers have become unstable, changing and merging with her very being in a way they hadn't for two years. Zhongli told her removing the blocks on her powers would help her get stronger, but she wasn't anticipating so many changes so fast (her fathers might kill her when they learn about the dreams).
But Nabu Malikata once was an Angel and Amun once was a King, and Sharzad?
Sharzad is something else entirely.

Summary
A former MMA fighter finds himself reincarnated as a young orphan in the Pokémon World. Unlike the cheerful and bright world he once saw on screens, this version is brutal, filled with danger, desperation, and morally gray decisions.
Pokémon are feral and wouldn't hesitate to tear you limb from limb at the slightest opportunity. The League does what it can but has to contend with powerful criminal organizations that would see the world destroyed when forced into a corner.
Join Alex as he not only survives but thrives in a world filled with battle, violence, and monsters beyond humanity's control, as he fights back with everything he has and more.DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POKEMON FRANCHISE

Summary
And look, Juno isn’t afraid of dying or anything. Instead they’re just, so…so fucking tired.
Because dying meant rewinding and figuring it all out again. It meant retracing steps. It meant solving the same eldritch escape room on repeat until they finally stumbled into the right sequence that let them out.
Is it so much to ask for a single forsaken break?

Summary
Yeah... Being thrown in a random kid's body is one thing, now adding to that fact, I'm also in another reality/universe entirely, and on top even those two, I have some weird blue holographic thingy floating in my face...
My day couldn't possibly get any more interesting than this... Right?
(This story will be relatively slow paced, it will also have heavy elements of romance and drama mixed into it. The MC won't be Op at the start, but his abilities will certainly make him very powerful. Also, there won't be any overly-explicit smut, or Harems involved, so don't expect any of it either.)
Enjoy!

Summary
Ruby Liu is a hardcore FF7 fan who also freelances as a programmer. After one fateful night, she is forced to enter the world of her beloved game and finds a new world both familiar yet unfamiliar. Apparently her old fanfics have become Gaia's cancer, brought about by the wrath of an old resident Summon thought lost to time. And to top it all off, she's drawn the ire and intrigue of Sephiroth, who seeks new purpose for the realm lovingly dubbed the Debug Room and even bullies her as a de facto editor in this new story of Gaia.
But the Rulers of the Outer Realms are always watching. Order must be preserved, lest the ancient wars of cataclysm resurge.
(Rewrite of FF7 Original & Remake where game mechanics, sidequest lore, easter eggs, OG concept drafts, and even the game's code may be integrated into the plot. No major spoilers for FF7 Rebirth, only scattered references. The Ultimania Guide for this fic will come after this WIP is complete. Enjoy the cool logo art for now.)
