    Summary

    To become fond of a place, to feel part of it... it always requires a reason. Perhaps it's someone you've met or something you've experienced here. Or perhaps you enjoy the atmosphere of Liyue and you will become accostumed to it.

     

    When Tartaglia is given the mission to take the Geo Archon's Gnosis by the Tsaritsa, he happily accepts. It's the perfect deal for him, he gets to fight a really powerful enemy all the while enjoying the beautiful landscapes and tasty cuisine. So what if he's going to be hated by the locals by the time he leaves, after all? It's just business, after all, nothing more and nothing less. He won't be setting foot in Liyue ever again, so why should he be worried about his reputation in a foreign land.

    Little did he know he would soon be eating back those words.

     

    Everyone needs a reason to stay. I hope you can find yours soon.

     

    Tends to update on Wednesdays and Sundays.

    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Summary

    When trying to transfer Shen Yuan from the real world to Proud Immortal Demon Way, the System runs into an error. The transfer is not complete.

    Shen Yuan is dropped off at the foot of a mountain aware of two things: he's in the story, and the Shen Qingqiu of this world is not only aware but thinks he tried to possess his body — and he's PISSED. Shen Yuan tries to opt out and live a simple life on what locals tell him is a monster-infested mountain no one in their right mind would bother with.

    Sounds like a great hiding spot!

    (TL;DR: Stardew Scum Villain Valley Mountain.)


    Chapter recaps available here.

    💌 Please note I am very behind on replies. I have full intentions of catching up, but my spoons for this are sporadically available. I appreciate them tremendously, always.

    Summary

    He awakened twice. Once when his brother emerged from the abyss. Once when he did something stupid during his investigations.

    Blurry memories had guided him thus far. Having context to those was only beneficial, right?

    Or an SI ends up as Childe's older brother. He leaves Snezhnaya as fast as he can. But even he can't avoid the plot that the Traveller brings forth.
