Bookmarker's Notes
A rare fic from one of my more obscure fandoms, and full of tiny-world improvisation and survivalism at that.

Summary
'Maintain morale. Keep the machine fed with bodies. Execute cowards to stiffen spines. The same work, in every universe. Someone has to make sure the gears don't seize up when the blood starts to flow.'
For 2 lives, this had been Tanya Von Degurechaff's job. Why should her third be any different?
Reborn for a 3rd time into a galaxy that knows only war, Tanya is thrust into the role as a commissar, and it seems that little will be different from her previous lives.
At least until she is assigned to the fanatical 117th Krieg Siege Regiment. Now she has only one mission.
'Keep them alive — or else this war, this entire miserable Imperial galaxy, would collapse on top of her, and Being X would be right there to savor it!'
Please note that this story takes place in the same universe as 'The Smallest Primarch'

How are there not more 40k/Tanya fics? It's a perfect fit.

Summary
There are no comforts in Konoha. No olives, no orange groves, no ocean.
She cannot devote her life in sincerity to a place that has nothing for her.
If she feels any loyalty to Konoha at all, it is because her family resides within its walls.

Summary
“So,” Jade says, marching on ahead with her list like a determined little artilleripper, tapping at her papers. “The…Dark Carnival.” She sounds it out every part one after the other, ‘fatal-funny cullpit of the messiahs’, like how a corpse dismembered and all laid out turns into pieces instead of a whole troll.
“Dark Carnival,” you say, putting the corpse back together to show her, fast and fluid how it’s supposed to flow.
“Dark Carnival,” Jade repeats after you, choking just a little on the shift of chirr into click. “Okay! Say me what does that mean?”

A diplomatic voyage of xenosociological discovery and awkward flirting takes place in Karkat's shitty living room, heavily backdropped by only the finest of cross-species anatomy textbooks, shitty Alternian cocktails, and schlocky Alternian romance movies.Series

Bookmarker's Notes
Is it still xenofiction if the aliens are humanoid, and their mindsets are not so much "at right angles" as "wave occasionally intersecting occasionally with the line of 'human experience"?
A really fun collection of thoughts on "Alternians as bug aliens", skilfully shaped into an actual story.

Summary
I died a nobody and I was born a nobody, in that order.
I never bothered to learn the language of the country I died fighting a war in, but not learning this one is kind of biting me in the ass. Maybe if I’d bothered to learn Japanese after I was reborn, I wouldn’t have been surprised by the magic.
Or the giant talking animals. Or the wizards with headbands.
Honestly, I’m not sure things can get much weirder. But I’m tired of watching the people I love die, so I’m going to do what I do best: shoot my problems.
And I don’t really care if these “ninjas” think it’s barbaric.

It's survival fic, in Naruto, with original powers and worldbuilding!
About as much of "everything I like" as you can reasonably expect to fit into one fic.
