  1. Summary

    A series of stories and one-shots centered around the idea of waking up in another world, taking over someone else's body, etc.

    This will be your only warning; I specialize specifically in writing about trauma and suffering. So know, most of these are NOT going to have a happy ending where everything turns out okay.

    Summary

    Two eyes open. And then two more. Like dominoes falling, the movements accelerate. 

    Eyes and eyes and eyes open. Ryoumen Sukuna has awakened, except she’s not the Sukuna from canon. No, she’s so, so much more.

    Summary

    ‘Oh, no,’ he thinks to himself, staring blankly at the unfamiliar reflection in the mirror. ‘I could have at least been someone relevant to the plot, like Gojo or Sukuna. Instead I’m a background character.’

    Recognition sinks him further into despair, when it finally creeps in and he puts a name to his own face.

    ‘Oh, no. I’m the sexist.’

     

    ———

     

    An attempt at a SI-fic with a character not quite lucky enough to be given easy access to the main cast. Sporting a fresh case of “amnesia” and a disgustingly overpowered cursed technique to balance out his ineptitude, the casual fan who’s replaced Naoya Zen’in has enough on his plate without having to muddle through clan politics and the social repercussions of incarnating as such an utter bastard. It’s going to be really hard to save the world and not die when he’s barely involved in the original plot … and when he never even finished the damn manga.

     

    Maybe he’s only half-lying when he says he doesn’t remember anything.

    Summary

    Power, perfection, authority: the mantra of the immutable Gem Empire, its will a palpable force holding the infinite masses in check. Difference, disobedience, inadequacy: a death sentence to any fool enough- or unfortunate enough, to be found out. On Earth, a song and dance and heartfelt plea might have won over tired, derided gems, the loyalty woven into their very souls worn thin by the endless ages, but Homeworld is not Earth. And for Steven, torn away from those he loves and trapped in a rose-tinted cage, forced into the image of a mother he never knew, it is nothing short of a nightmare.
    Still, more lurks beneath the pristine guise of Homeworld than could ever be expected, and Steven may yet find himself the kingpin of an age-old scheme, caught in the crux of powers beyond his comprehension. Perfection is, after all, only skin deep.

    Summary

    Seven weeks trapped within the Walking Dead apocalypse isn’t something Alexandrea would wish upon anyone. It’s a miracle she even made it this far, but she has only done so by the skin of her teeth. Having escaped the CDC, Alexandrea walks a fine line between the fictional timeline she knows and changing things…

    For better or for worse.
