《The Red Snowman》The Amnesty
Advertisement
My hands are dyed black.
My face is dyed black.
My entire body is dyed black.
I've tried to find a home, but everywhere I go, they are scared of me.
Everything I touch dies.
Only this hulking suit keeps me from hurting people.
It's too heavy of a burden to carry.
But it gives me hope, there's a badge on my shoulder. It speaks: 'Amnesty'.
It's a story about a large, steel battleship in the sky, with cursed, like me.
Once every two years, it's supposed to stop at the nearest city to its next destination, to replenish supplies.
It takes in those like me, under one condition – we may never return until it lands again.
All you have to do is do crew member duties, you start with simple stuff, like cleaning or cooking, then later you get to grow food or operate the strange devices on the ship.
They say that once you get used to it, the pain is gone. The ship takes it away.
Some who were not fully stained even recovered, although it takes decades.
I wish it was true, but even If it is... nobody is going to let someone like me into the city.
It's too much of a danger.
That's why I don't even HOPE anymore.
What's the point?
All we can do is holding on, regardless of the pain. Just for people unlike us.
Nobody is coming for the rescue.
"I am."
A monster? Leave your bargains to those who still have their souls intact. You can't stain my soul no more.
Don't pretend to be sad. You're incapable of feeling anything, we know it's just a grimace. We know why you do what you do, and it's not because you care.
"Is it wrong, to attempt to do the right thing?"

You will never know what is 'right' and what is 'wrong', that's just your nature.
"Stop it."
You only guess.
"STOP IT!"
We are alive. How can you still not see it?
"Stop it, please."
Don't you see that I am stained and that it is your fault?
Your false tears won't cause my heart to beat again.
"I'm sorry."
These are just words with no meaning behind them. Why won't you just go away?
"..."
Ticket?
Amnesty!?
"You will need it. It stops in behind citrus hills, in the village, tomorrow."
They won't let me in.
"Just go."
They will hurt me.
"Your suit will help you."
It still hurts...
"The choice is yours. I only gave you a ticket."
I know. You... only 'do things'. But why?
"..."
Forget it, it's not like you know.
You're a monster after all.
Well... but, I still guess... that it's a goodbye, monster.
"Goodbye."

8 134Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?

8 129Into The Fray
In a war-ridden world where metaphysical powers are the norm, Alma Gustafsson, a defect with no abilities whatsoever, stood at the top of it. An elite captain with a tactical mind, capable of fighting the invading forces with utmost efficiency and discipline, amplified by an immeasurable amount of sheer dedication. This mission was supposed to be a standard one. Get behind enemy lines, kill the metal puppets, destroy the flying fortress, escape with body and life intact. To be the first one to stare at the eyes of their true enemy was surprising enough, and dying was already a sharp reminder of what she is: A defect that has no place in the battlefield. But somehow, meeting an old man in the middle of the forest was more important to her than the events that transpired. “Your grit is one of a kind, girly. I need that.” Said the old man, giving her a chance to go back out there and fight once more. It was a stupid offer, making her choose between eternal happiness of heaven and the meaningless fighting that she has done all those years. However, she never took herself as a smart person. And as she embarks on a journey to protect her world, she will find herself at a crossroad that will determine the fate of the universe...

Not my story - written by isthatyoularry on Ao3Summary:It's Louis' senior year, and he's dead set on doing it right. However, along with his pair of cleats, a healthy dose of sarcasm and his ridiculous best friend, he's also got a complicated family, a terrifyingly uncertain future, and a mortal enemy making his life just that much worse. Mortal enemies "with benefits" was not exactly the plan.Or: The one where Louis and Harry definitely aren't friends, and football is everything.Disclaimer: None of this is real. Nothing in this is meant to imply anything, nor does this reflect my personal beliefs about anything or anyone. This is fiction.
