    Summary

    If you could choose a world to be isekaied into, you probably wouldn't choose the videogame Age of Tales.

    It's a painfully generic medieval RPG with a very generic "farm boy becomes a hero" storyline. Or farmgirl, if you go that route. There's some moral choices, but overall the story is very linear from start to finish, and no matter how evil you try to play it, the game inevitably ends with the chosen farmboy (or girl) saving the world. Age of Tales has a very generic cast of characters with very generic backstories, even more generic villains with very basic evil plots, and side quests right out of early free to play mmorpgs. Overall the game is just very… mid.

    Upon release the game was a massive flop.

    And Katie has happily sunk nearly six hundred hours into it.

    I laughed, I cried, I [redacted] through the rollercoaster of a ride that was socksock(airplanned)'s All the Trashy Novels. And then I came to the conclusion that it deserves a trashy novel cover of its own. Ahh, the classics.

    Summary

    “What are you doing here?” He asked evenly.

    It was obvious what she was doing there, she thought miserably, fixing the pack slung over her back. “Taking a walk,” she huffed. He could easily call out to the guards, alerting them of her presence, foiling her escape plans. But he had explaining to do, too. “What are you doing here?” She asked.

    He gave her a once over, spotting her bag. Caught. “Sneaking out,” he said.

    Summary

    [We welcome your entrance into the system. This system is based on developing the concept of "the original is always the best".]

     

    [Best of luck host! We pray for your happiness!]

     

    Happiness, Shen Qingqiu reflected viciously, trying to think through the pounding (and disembodied voice) in his head. When in his entire fucking life had he ever been happy?

    OG Shen Qingqiu is transmigrated back in time to when Shen Yuan initially took over in SVSSS. He plots to change his original fate and prevent Luo Binghe's rise to Emperor through the power of spite, which gives him strength. Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss, go!

    Summary

    “Names have meaning,” the man said, “Meaning that means you ought to be careful who you give them to. I thought someone like you would know that.”

    It was like getting slapped in the face with cold water.

    “Of course,” Jaster agreed, “I’m sorry. I seem to have forgotten myself and lost track of where I am. I, of all people, should know that spoken names in the forest of the lost would be a mistake.”

    “Perhaps,” the man murmured as he stood, “But lucky for you, I don’t mind. My name is Obi-Wan. What do they call you?”

    With winter fast approaching, and the forest fighting their every move, Jaster isn't sure how the settlements of Concordia will last.

    During a visit to a spring that helps heal Jaster's fae injury, he finds himself with company in a place he was sure that no one else knew of.

    Obi-Wan meets Jaster in a place the man shouldn't know how to get to, with more questions than answers.

    Slowly, Obi-Wan learns that everything they've been taught about the humans isn't how it seems.

    When Obi-Wan is injured protecting Jaster—unable to return home—he learns that the tales of the humans told by the fae are only half the story.

    Summary

    The system abandoned him with nothing but a cryptic message. It took Shen Qingqiu days to realize that it was referring to a single throwaway line in a filler chapter.

    He could have done with a bit more warning about being married.

    Summary

    If he had to be honest, he would say he was terrified of the ritual, but as he had nobody to be honest with, he looked very much like every other man who had come to Winterfell for the first day of the month: eyes guarded, face clean, shoulders broad. Every one of them some breed of either arrogant or desperate. Peter wondered which he was. Perhaps both.

    That was faith, wasn’t it? Its own arrogance, its own desperation.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu didn't really consider that there might be drawbacks to a system who was devoted to both lore and genuine experiences, until he was dying of it.

    Getting to repeat from the start as many times as he needed to figure it out didn't help. Nothing really did, until the System offered an easy mode. He just had to unlock it, and then he could let Liu Qingge do all the work.

    Summary

    When Shen Qingqiu is put on public trial for murder, Huan Hua Palace unveils a memory artefact to expose his past before the entire cultivation world.

    The cultivation world wants him condemned. Huan Hua Palace wants a spectacle. And with a device capable of dragging the past into the light, they are certain they will get both. The verdict has already been written on every face in the room.

    But Shen Qingqiu knows there are fates worse than being called a murderer. There are truths he has survived only by burying. And once the memories begin, the trial becomes something far worse than judgment: not proof, but exposure. Because hidden in Shen Qingqiu’s past is one truth more private than shame, more dangerous than scandal, and far harder to survive than the accusations themselves.

    Summary

    Transmigrating is very weird.

    One moment Shen Yuan is cursing at his computer, angry typing about Proud Immortal Demon Way’s craptastic and underwhelming ending. The next moment a meatbun got caught in his throat. Between fading out and fading back in he’d acquired a passenger. Or maybe…hewas the passenger? It’s complicated.

    A sliver of the original goods’ soul, tucked itself up neatly right under his own. A little sliver, too stubborn to release its hold on its current incarnation. A little sliver which held on to Shen Yuan’s probably shabby soul in this exquisite body and refused to let go.

    Summary
