    Summary

    It was a normal day, for every universe. Well, that was the case until many strange portals opened, and multiple characters were sucked into a strange universe. A universe where France, Paris is a breeding ground for mind controlled villains, and two heroes, possibly more, have to stop them. New villains, friendships and possibly something more, blooming, and many other wacky scenarios await.

     

    (totally not doing this to help with my 'akumatizing literally every character I love' special interest definitely not)

    Summary

    [Fanart + Fic, part Beauty & the Beast, xianxia, murder mystery, demon shenanigans, scary stories]

    It's been many long years since Zhou Zishu lost his memories. He wandered the world, trying to find anything familiar. That is, until he ran into a small village at the foot of a mountain.
    Villagers have been disappearing, hordes of demons have made camp here, and the villagers, desperate, call out for help. They talk of a towering creature, some say tall enough to reach the moon! With bloody red horns and even bloodier talons: the Wicked Wight.
    Don't come near it, they say, or it will whisk you into the night, leaving only a trail of blood and a strand of silver hair. Silver? Intrigued, Zhou Zishu investigates:
    why were there so many demons gathered here? Who was killing the villagers? And why was this devilish creature so... clingy?

    Summary

    This story is a post apocalypse, but not your typical depiction of one. A post-pandemic technology driven world that could very well be our own, I never actually specify the country or even truly confirm that my story takes place on Earth. I leave that up to the imagination.
    We live in a world where political polarization continues to drive neighbors further and further and more and more of its occupants' time is invested in the virtual world of the internet and technology. In some ways you could say this is one post apocalypse, right before the even more catastrophic apocalyptic disaster. As well as an apocalypse of one's deteriorating mind in an ever more and more technological neon world.
    This was originally a simple story I wrote many years ago with a goofy Friday The 13th reference written into the original version (There's still a bit of that here). Since then, I have done small iterations here and there, but this is my most ambitious attempt yet. Much of the fear in this version isn’t from the tension of an ominous stranger getting ever closer and closer, but how familiar many will find the world and situation the main character finds himself in.
