No human students. No including a keylogger in this document or making entries undeletable from this document.
No packing any of the following into artillery shells: surprisingly durable chainsaws, chainsaws in general, lube, anything living or recently deceased, freeze-dried pinecones, fart gas, the blood of any species, surprisingly durable though unfortunately non-functioning organs of any kind, or anything which, while technically not illegal or at the time against these rules, would have you put in front of a war crime tribunal were it actually used in warfare. No touching artillery shells at all unless you have a really good reason. "A really good reason" and other such similar statements, at the very least when applied to this document, means a good reason according to the relevant department head, not you. If you have to wonder whether or not it's against the rules, it either is or soon will be. Don't. If you don't have to wonder as such because you can conclude that it is or such an action will cause an update to these rules, don't do it. Do not make doors require they be sung at before they can be opened. No posting this list to social media in order to get help finding loopholes. If it’s bad you shouldn’t do it. If the word loophole crosses your mind at any time while reading this list, you are to inform the relevant department head of said loophole, not use it. The same applies to any synonym thereof. No using orbital cannons to toast bread. No using anything except a toaster to toast bread. No using anything except a toaster with no modifications made, designed, or suggested by humans, to toast bread. [Scrubbed from records by order of Union Military Intelligence. See file theHorror553876 for heavily redacted details.] Don't do anything which causes several new government agencies to exist simply to deal with the implications of it being a thing. [Scrubbed from records by order of UMI. No details available.] [Scrubbed from records by order of UMI. No details available.] [Scrubbed from records by order of UMI. No details available.] Don't do anything even vaguely related to the above. Rule 0, is not "Ignore the following if the idea seems cool." There is no rule 0 on this document, nor a rule x with x being null, a decimal, integer less than 1, fraction, irrational number, imaginary number, letter, or any symbol or combination of symbols besides integers greater than 0. No detaching and throwing your own limb at somebody. Could you please stop making other students nervous over rumors about this "Project Reality Diner" and a supposed anti-human conspiracy. The xenophobia-fueled attacks are unfortunate, but they don't need a conspiracy to happen, you lot are scary. No cancer guns. Nor guns that shoot blobs of cancer. Nor guns that are cancerous. No guns which are in any way diseased. Yes, the university does reside in the territory of a nation. Yes, other nations might go to war with such nation. If people attack the university, you have to take prisoners in an ethical manner, not use the event as an excuse to test some of your more exotic weaponry. No experimentally driving prisoners insane. No experimenting on prisoners. Apparently, this one needs to be restated, but this time including prisoners of war. No experimenting on terrorists. No converting massive sections of the university into pulsating flesh. Hallways should be comprised of neither tongues nor teeth. Same for doors and flagpoles. No using finely-tuned orbital laser platforms to make fruit salad. No creating currencies backed by liters of tears. Nor liters of blood, or any other bodily fluid. No using orbital lasers to assist in surgery. No using orbital lasers to warm your coffee. No using highly elaborate setups to convince someone that they've been shrunk to 1/8th scale. If it causes psychological trauma, No. Any human rule 34 is a psychological weapon when used against non-humans. No using orbital lasers to evaporate raindrops before they hit you. Fine, if someone attacks this place despite it being one of the most heavily armed places known to exist (when did that happen), you can do with them as you wish. No throwing anyone else's limb at anyone. Yes, the blue psuedo-gas is mysterious. Yes, it may very well lead to grand scientific progress. However, despite that, if using completely excessive amounts of explosives against it didn't cause any reaction other than obliterating the moon the experiment was taking place on, doing so again won't get different results. Yes, large sample size is one of the bases of science, but it didn't work the first five times, and it won't work the sixth. It is not a valid excuse to set off 'fireworks,' antimatter-based or not. Just because you figured out that you have to keep it in constant motion in order to contain it doesn't mean that a lot more motion is the answer to getting it to do anything. Repeat after me, explosives do not solve everything.

Reverse Reincarnation
Returning to a previous life she doesn’t remember, Tori wakes up in a fantasy world as the heir to an empire. One where magic called cultivation rules. While doing research and kickstarting an industrialization, she has to deal with a family of transmigrators, politics, and spirits. Maybe she’ll even figure out why some of them keep trying to kill her. Life in a different world has its challenges, even if it’s the life you’re supposed to lead. This is a slightly tongue-in-cheek take on a transmigration/cultivation novel. The story will be more focused on characters than action. A few characters, including the MC, are LGBT+. Updates: Mon. & Thurs.

Cymurai
In a dark future, something ancient and immeasurably powerful walks the mutant wastelands...Kensuke is a lowly ashigaru footsoldier in the Tachiyama Clan, one of the few remaining human settlements in a dark, post-apocalyptic future. Thousands of years in the past, deadly nanomutagens were released across Asia, killing hundreds of millions and transforming billions more over subsequent generations. Those who remained immune soon moved into enclaves. In Japan, the feudal system revolving around the samurai class was revived, and resource wars became common.In the present, the Tachiyama Clan is under attack by the brutal Sasagawa Clan whose goal is nothing less than the total subjegation of all remaining human enclaves. Both sides take to the battlefield with human soldiers, robots, and the powerful Augmented Samurai -- cyborg warriors who do battle by plugging into six-meter-tall mecha.Hard sci-fi samuraipunk action!Posting schedule will be slightly faster in the early chapters as I have most of them ready to go. Later chapters will take more time. That said, the outline is written and finished. I imagine the full work will top 50,000 words.Please note: The first 9000 words of this work were posted recently on Patreon (free) as part of a 30-day writing challenge. The work that will appear here will be complete and may differ in editing and chapter order. IMAGE SOURCE: Illustration 171244302 © Grandfailure | Dreamstime.com (Paid)

The Crisis on Planet 9
Welcome to the dream colony Planet 9, where the streets are stained by blood and the buildings are filled with human remains. The creatures roaming among the abandoned cars and flying vehicles resemble almost to perfection the mindless cannibalistic zombies born from the fictional nightmares of mankind. The cities were built in the retro style of the 21st century, but the technology of the 24th century is ever present, mostly within the bodies of those mortally challenged monstrosities. After all, what turned them into these things was not an evolved organic virus, an alien disease, or some sort of magical artifact, it was the corrupted and reprogrammed nanobots within their bodies. Originally, they were meant to heal them and help them access the tech around them, but now they were the origin of this disaster. Among the rotting dead and the Nano-Z, as the survivors called them, Kardian Pandora awakens two months after getting bit by one of them. A young teacher at the local Resonance High, foolish and naive in his own way, but now driven by the Sapient AI in the nanobots inside his body to hunt down other Nano-Z and learn how to survive. For now, his only goal is to become strong enough and rejoin his students and fellow colleagues, foolishly hoping to somehow be able to get back to the time when the undead did not rule the streets. Will Kardian be able to survive in this new savage world or will his naive outlook lead him to a dead end? Volume 1 can be bought on Amazon: Resonance High
