Summary
- (Unfinished) Rewritten version is being posted separately -
Being reincarnated was certainly an interesting concept. Actually experiencing death and rebirth? Not high on my to-do list.
Now, being reborn as a Vessel from a fictional video game at the bottom of the world? Here we fucking go.
(This story is inspired by a number of other Hollow Knight Isekai fics on this website. I definitely recommend you check them out! You’ll also see where I got some of my ideas from.)

Summary
Being reincarnated was always an interesting concept. Experiencing it for myself? Not at the top of my list.
Unfortunately, the void had other plans for me.
Who knew the climb to salvation started at the bottom of the world?

Summary
Synthia picks up a target from an unusual corporation.
A short one-shot I wrote a while back when the HMF channel was posting videos. I thought about making it longer, but I think it ends at a pretty good point.
(Holy shit I did it. I posted a thing. Go me!!!)

Summary
A man has been given the worst possible hand in life, and yet he constantly strives to make things better, make things work out like it should. Even when bad luck strikes him down, he always gets back up again. Except for this most recent time, where he's never getting back up again.
When he clings on to life in spite of the truth, he's offered a new opportunity at life, but with a cruel twist he'd never see coming. Can a normal human grow accustomed to a digital world in an unfamiliar body? How will he handle his mind being split in two?

No matter where I go, I feel the pull of it.
The music.
It’s a faint thing, but it’s been following me everywhere.
--
You can hear it too, can’t you?

On the diegetic music that follows Kris and Ralsei around.

Summary
She remembers waking up, getting breakfast, and waiting for the day to start. She does not remember falling asleep, but she does remember waking up again. Only this time, it's cold, her body is wrong (yet somehow right), and she's suspended in what feels like egg whites. Oh, and her egg-mate? Yeah, that's Ghost. The Knight. Protagonist of hit indie video game Hollow Knight. And she... appears to be in the title role. Yippee.
Alright, comprehensive plan is this:
1. don't die
2. don't let Ghost die
3. fix everythingThis'll be fun. (And by fun, well, let's just say... mental breakdown.)
Heavily inspired by FreakOfYourNature's A Not-So-Hollow Knight (self insert dies painfully and for some reason reincarnates as the Hollow Knight, then proceeds to obliterate any sense of coherence Hallownest had left), but with two key differences: One, said self insert is infinitely less aggressive, and Two, the Pale King is actually a decent person. And maybe... maybe he could even become a decent father.

Summary
Somewhere along the line, ENA has apparently decided to rope Coral into some item selling scheme. Except she's not really selling. And it's not exactly a scheme... you know what, it really seems like ENA just wants to give her things. For... some reason.
Which is to say, all of this leads to something more.

Bookmarker's Notes
ENACoral fic that has me in a complete chokehold- pictures ENA who’s only ever worked and experienced indifference receiving the kindness she deserves! My girls~
