Welcome to my little corner of shameless self indulgence!
This series is a collection of stories featuring my self insert/OC, Ai, alongside my beloved comfort characters from various fandoms!

You'll find everything here, from plot heavy adventures and slow burn romances to fluffy domestic oneshots, alternate universes, hurt/comfort, and whatever other scenarios my overactive imagination decides to throw at me.
Expect canon divergence, creative liberties, occasional OOC, original stories, ridiculous amounts of affection, and absolutely no shame.

Some stories will be carefully planned epics. Others will exist purely because I wanted to write 5,000 words about my favourite fictional man holding my OC's hand.

There is no overarching continuity unless otherwise stated, and each work can be enjoyed independently.

This is, first and foremost, a love letter to the characters who have brought me comfort, and a place for me to stretch my writing muscles, experiment with ideas, and indulge in the wonderful little worlds living rent-free in my head.
Self-indulgent? Absolutely. Written with love? Every single word.

If you happen to enjoy these stories too, then you're very welcome to stay. ♡

Meet Ai - my OC/Self insert

Name: Ai
Role: Self-insert / Original Character

Appearance: A petite young woman standing at approximately 150 cm (4'11"), with warm, deep brown skin, expressive brown eyes, and shoulder length red hair, frequently worn in two braids or left loose. She often wears glasses, and her wardrobe changes depending on the world she finds herself in.

Personality: Ai is a contradiction wrapped in a very small package.
Naturally shy, anxious, and prone to overthinking, she's often more comfortable observing the world from the side lines than placing herself at the centre of attention. She struggles with selfconfidence, frequently underestimates her own worth, and can be spectacularly oblivious when someone develops feelings for her.
Yet beneath her insecurities lies a deeply affectionate, empathetic, and occasionally mischievous young woman with a stubborn streak that tends to emerge at the most inconvenient moments.

She's a hopeless romantic with a soft spot for beautiful things, quiet acts of affection, and people who might need a little extra kindness. She has an unfortunate tendency to put others before herself, a habit of befriending people she probably shouldn't, and an alarming willingness to risk her own safety for someone she loves.

Despite her timid nature, she can be playful, sarcastic, affectionate, and surprisingly cheeky once she feels safe enough to let her guard down.
She enjoys video games, books, crafting, stories, and the comforting little pleasures that make life feel worthwhile.

A Note on Characterisation:
Ai is a self-insert inspired by myself, rather than a rigidly defined character. Her background, abilities, relationships, and circumstances may change depending on the fandom, universe, or story.

Sometimes she'll be an ordinary woman caught up in extraordinary circumstances. Sometimes she'll possess abilities of her own. Sometimes she'll be the heroine of an epic adventure, and sometimes she'll simply be a sleepy little gremlin who wants to cuddle her favourite person.

At her core, however, she'll remain recognisably Ai: a gentle, flawed, loving individual learning that she deserves as much tenderness as she gives to others.
