Existential Angst

Updates every Wednesday Getting ahead of oneself, followed by impulsiveness ultimately leads to doom. Maria Hart was in the middle of confessing to her longtime crush—until she realized he likes someone else. Cue an existential crisis, an emergency cover-up operation, and somehow, getting forcefully shipped with Noah Williams, the school’s most arrogant and unbothered human statue. Then, because fate clearly hates her, karma hits her back. Noah's milking every second of her suffering, all while casually ruining her life. Between blackmail, sabotage, and an accidental slow-burn disaster, their rivalry is getting way too out of hand. And the worst part? Everyone seems to think they’re secretly in love. They’re not. Obviously. ....Right?

Atlas, a human and a former mercenary in a world where gods, demons and demigods rule the land. Having no home, no guild, and no interest in bending to anyone’s rules, alongside Maya, his ever-hungry, ever-fearless companion, and his team of misfits, he drifts through the Null Continent, taking on whatever comes his way—monsters, mercenaries, gods, demons, and the occasional existential crisis. His only goal? To keep moving forward. A tale of exile and defiance, of forgotten pasts, uncertain futures and a grand adventure. This is Wildflower.

As mentioned in the name theme of the story, the central figure, driven by a twisted desire for dominance, methodically corrupts impressionable young women, weaving a web of control that extends far beyond mere physical enslavement. These women, once vibrant and free, are reduced to mere pawns in his elaborate game of conquest, their autonomy stripped away as they become instruments of his malevolent will. What truly sets this tale apart is the enigmatic presence of the antagonist, the very creator of the story itself. Trapped within the confines of his own narrative by an ancient curse, he grapples with the consequences of his own hubris. As he orchestrates the downfall of his characters, he simultaneously navigates the murky depths of his own psyche, confronting the darkness that lurks within. The boundaries between fiction and reality blur, casting doubt upon the nature of existence itself. As the story unfolds, parallels emerge between the protagonist's struggle against the villain and the author's own internal conflict. Each move on the narrative chessboard reflects a deeper existential battle, as the characters' fates intertwine with the author's own quest for redemption. Ultimately, the story becomes a haunting meditation on the nature of creation, agency, and the profound impact of our choices, both within the confines of fiction and in the vast expanse of reality. In conclusion, an author writes a cursed story. The curse is so strong it consumes the author and he's getting trapped inside his own story. But he gets a chance to decide his character. The author chooses to be the villain who can never be defeated. He becomes the main character of the story as the villain, he corrupts good women into evil and makes them fight the hero and the heroines.

Upon opening his eyes, there before him was a bridal chamber adorned with red candles and windows. A bride dressed in a phoenix coronet and robes of rank sat upright on the nuptial bed, her face covered by a red bridal veil. Zhao Rong rubbed his sleepy eyes, "Have I become a groom? Oh, and a junior one at that." Understood. His facial expression brewed for a moment before he twisted his mouth into a smile, "Wait a second..." Huh, something's amiss. The bride is my childhood sweetheart who also harbored a crush on me? Oh, then that's alright. This is very fitting. Zhao Rong stepped forward, happily lifting the red bridal veil, "Hey hey, my lady, where are you running off to?" ------------- In the great era of contention, the tide of the times surged forth, and Confucian Scholar Zhao Rong bravely faced it head-on.

"Congratulations, You Have Died! Would You Like to Subscribe to Corporate Hell?" Ephraim Larkspur didn't expect to wake up after dramatically yeeting himself off a bridge—but he definitely didn't expect to wake up as a fresh recruit in the afterlife's most underpaid, overworked startup: the Savior System Department. The job description? Travel to different worlds, play the role of cannon fodder, and rescue trapped Mission Takers from bad endings before they permanently glitch out of existence. The benefits? None. The salary? Negative. The uniform? A corporate-looking uniform that would make even the most patient saint commit workplace violence. With a snarky, charming, wife-loving System partner whispering in his ear and a whole roster of doomed, beautiful characters waiting to be saved (or accidentally seduced) across countless worlds, Ephraim's afterlife is about to be a never-ending shitpost with existential consequences.

Max Miller, an underachieving, pizza-loving tech support guy, suddenly finds himself thrown into the chaos of the multiverse when he wakes up in a high-tech alien spaceship with a SYSTEM installed in his brain. His mission? No clue. His powers? A glitchy, sarcastic AI that grants him random abilities at the worst possible times. From fighting intergalactic warlords with a "Banana Gun" to crash-landing on a planet where cats rule supreme, Max must survive in a universe full of absurdity, action, and questionable logic—all while trying to find a way back home… if he even wants to go back. Armed with his system, his newfound allies (including a talking robot that has an existential crisis every five minutes), and his incredible ability to screw things up in the best possible way, Max is about to discover that being a hero is way harder than it looks in the movies.

“Unlucky” would be the nice way to describe Lucas’ luck. He wasn’t just down bad. He was practically cursed. As someone who never asked to exist, he’s had to experience medical torture, imprisonment, and eventually death. And that was just his first life. Then, just as he thought of escaping his fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Empire’s most useless Flower Vase. Great, now he should have status, wealth, and beauty, right? Wrong. Because his new body, Young Lord Luca Kyros, was a vegetable. And what’s worse was that no one else seemed to know the truth. To everyone else, he was just your typical rebellious heir. He wouldn’t have minded that. He was used to being called a harlot or similar names for being a defective Guide. But the problem was he woke up right smack in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s Assessment test. And his double body, the one who should be attending school, perished in an ambush. So now, he’s forced to resolve his existential crisis while attending a school he never even enrolled in. He’ll have to conquer his flimsy body, his brooding roommate, and his picky-eater “dungeon”—all that on top of surviving impending doom. Someone definitely needs a miracle.

#ACTION #ADVENTURE #BETRAYAL #TRAGEDY #WAR#ANGST ______________________ In a world fractured by storm and prowling with monsters, survival is both an art and a curse. Governed by elemental resonance, where individuals known as Resonarchs wield the forces of nature, Ezra, a young scavenger with a sharp tongue, finds himself entangled in a dangerous web of secrets and ancient powers. Life on the outskirts has always been harsh, but when a terrifying encounter with a terrifying beast awakens a mysterious light within him, his life takes a dangerous turn. As Ezra begins to uncover hidden truths about resonance, his abilities, and the world beyond, a dormant ancient force threatens to unravel the delicate balance of the elements. With the fate of the world hanging by a thread, Ezra is thrust into a battle against time, alongside a group of fractured allies, each harboring their own dark pasts. As he ventures deeper into the heart of the fractured world, the line between man and monster blurs, and Ezra is forced to confront the darker aspects of his own existence. But one ally harbors a secret so devastating, it could doom them all. As Ezra’s powers grow, so do the stakes. Will he unlock the mysteries of resonance in time to save the world—or will he be forced to watch everything he loves fall to ruin? One thing is certain: the world will never be the same. And not everyone will survive. As enemies close in and the echoes grow stronger, Ezra must decide: will he remain human, or embrace the monstrous truth that might destroy everything he’s ever known?

"Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell." That’s the one thing everyone knows. But for our microscopic protagonist, let’s call him Cyto (short for Cytoplasm, because he’s unoriginal), that’s about the only thing that makes sense. Waking up in a petri dish of existential dread, Cyto has no idea what he is, where he came from, or why he’s suddenly aware. All he knows is that something weird happened—like, really weird—and now he’s stuck trying to figure out what the fuck is going on. Armed with nothing but his wits (and maybe a few cell organelles), he sets out to figure out what the fuck is going on with the nagging feeling that he’s not just a cell. Is this all just some cosmic glitch?

Elliot Carter, a down-on-his-luck everyman, is having the worst day of his life. Fired from his job, harassed by his landlord, and deprived of his favorite oat milk, Elliot’s day takes a surreal turn when his phone glitches and reveals a mysterious system interface. He is abruptly named the "Architect of Reality," tasked with rebuilding a crumbling world. With reality’s stability at a precarious 47%, Elliot is thrust into a role he never asked for, armed with a holographic system that allows him to manipulate fundamental aspects of existence—gravity, time, energy, and more. As Elliot navigates this bizarre new responsibility, he discovers that the instability plaguing his world stems from temporal anomalies and energy imbalances, many of which are linked to a mysterious "Unknown Entity" at the heart of the city. With the clock ticking and reality on the brink of collapse, Elliot must learn to wield his newfound powers carefully, balancing the risks of unintended consequences with the urgent need to stabilize the world. From preventing car accidents to tweaking cosmic luck, Elliot begins to make small but impactful changes. However, when he confronts the Unknown Entity—a chaotic vortex of energy that threatens to consume everything—he faces his greatest challenge yet. Forced to make a risky decision, Elliot absorbs the entity into the system, stabilizing reality but unlocking new, unknown dangers. With the first mission complete and reality’s stability at 70%, Elliot gains access to system upgrades, hinting at even greater powers—and greater responsibilities. As he begins to unravel the mysteries of the system and the origins of the Unknown Entity, Elliot realizes that his journey as the Architect of Reality is only just beginning. **Themes:** - The weight of responsibility and the power of choice - The fragility of reality and the consequences of tampering with it - A reluctant hero’s journey from ordinary to extraordinary **Tone:** A mix of sci-fi adventure, existential mystery, and dark humor, with a protagonist who balances skepticism with growing determination. **Potential:** This story sets the stage for a larger narrative about the nature of reality, the origins of the system, and Elliot’s role in a multiverse teetering on the edge of collapse. With each mission, Elliot will face new challenges, uncover deeper truths, and grapple with the moral dilemmas of wielding godlike power.

"So, you laugh?" His voice was low, dangerously soft, making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I swallowed hard, suddenly aware of how difficult it had become to breathe. "Hades, I—" "But you only laugh at other men's jokes," he interrupted, his gaze piercing, devoid of any humor. "Not your husband's." The accusation in his tone was sharp, slicing through the air between us. A nervous chuckle escaped me. "You can't be serious... He’s your beta, for Goddess’ sake." In an instant, he closed the distance between us, so fast it left me breathless. His hands gripped my waist, pulling me flush against his body, the heat of him making my skin tingle. I gasped, but before I could say a word, his lips crashed onto mine, claiming my mouth with a force that sent shockwaves through me. The kiss was punishing, hungry—I couldn't breathe, couldn't think. When he finally pulled back, I was trembling, my chest heaving as I struggled to regain my breath. His eyes, dark and stormy, searched mine with a possessive intensity. "You can’t laugh at my jokes..." he whispered, his voice a dangerous rasp as his fingers trailed lower, sending a shiver down my spine, "but you’ll come with my fingers." I shivered, heat pooling low in my belly at his words, his touch. The world around us blurred, fading into nothing as his hand slipped lower, drawing a ragged gasp from my lips. The look in his eyes told me he knew exactly what he was doing to me, and there was no denying the primal connection between us in that moment. "I don’t need your laughter," he murmured against my skin, his breath hot on my neck.

What happens after the end? When death isn’t release, but a door—one that opens to something far worse? Welcome to The Labyrinth, where every path leads to suffering and every death drags you back to the start. It doesn’t want to kill you.

Dollars, euros, pounds, yen... Bottle caps. The type of favors I request from her requires a different kind of currency. Currency that pays for a chance at freedom. And since I can't take her blood, her tears, or her pain, I'm going to take the rest. I desire her soul, body, and lust... but I don't make her pay with traditional money. I don't make her give me coins. I make her give me what I know she fears most--herself. 365 bottle caps equivalent to a full year of servitude, and then she's free. If you like obsessive, powerful, extremely hot men, you'll love Gabriel Hart. He's deliciously fucked up and he comes with his own dark demons. But there's a heart deep down, beneath all that rubble and angst.

Author: Lone Raut Synopsis (Narrated by Deadpool’s Chaotic Cousin Who Forgot to Take Their Meds): Alright, gather ‘round, folks! Let me spin you a tale so dark it’ll make your therapist retire. Picture this: Yours truly was just another fancy-pants “man of culture” on a serial killer’s hit list—because apparently, collecting rare books and quoting Nietzsche makes you a target. Who knew? (Spoiler alert: I died. Surprise!) But death? Nah, that’s just the opening act. Instead of sweet oblivion, I woke up knee-deep in Saint’s Odyssey—a fantasy novel I once tossed into my “dumpster fire of bad writing” pile. Think Game of Thrones meets Saw, but with more existential dread. And guess what? I’m not the dashing hero. Nope. I’m the guy the author conveniently labeled “Villain.” Cool, right? (Cue jazz hands.) But hold onto your chimichangas, because this “hero”? Oh, he’s a masterpiece of hypocrisy. Smiles like a Disney prince, stabs like a back-alley surgeon. His grand plan? Wipe out half the world because reasons. Classic hero logic! Meanwhile, the gods are upstairs chugging ambrosia and betting on our suffering. Adorable!!!. Well, newsflash, Olympus—I’m hijacking this plot. Reborn with a vendetta and a PhD in chaos, I’m not here to play nice. Rules? Burn ‘em. Heroes? Crush ‘em. World domination? Duh!. This ain’t a redemption arc; it’s a blood-soaked takeover tour. Think Machiavelli with a splash of Joker and a side of espresso. They call me ruthless? Damn right. I’ll out-scheme the schemers, out-betray the traitors, and maybe burn a kingdom or two for aesthetic. The hero thinks he’s pulling strings? Sweetheart, I’m the puppetmaster—and I just cut the threads. Every battle’s a chess move, every ally a pawn, and the board? Oh, it’s dripping in red. And hey, let’s laugh while we’re at it. Ever seen a “chosen one” trip over his own halo? Poetic. Ever roasted a god so hard they literally combust? (Working on it.) This world’s a joke, and I’m the punchline—delivered with a knife. So buckle up, buttercups. The script’s flipped, the crown’s mine, and if the heroes cry about “morals”? Tell ‘em to write a Yelp review. This villain’s rewriting destiny—one corpse at a time. TL;DR: Death was my warm-up. Now? I’m here to conquer, crack jokes, and maybe commit some light treason. World, meet your new overlord. Resistance is hilarious . Hahahahaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠)

"They say life gives second chances, but mine feels more like a punishment in a shinier wrapper" Hi, I’m Ansh. I died in my old life—tragic, I know. Picture this: a cursed town, my so-called best friend leaving me in the back, and me just lying there thinking, Wow, this sucks. But hey, at least reincarnation is supposed to be cool, right? Wrong. I wake up in some random novel I’ve never read, thinking, Maybe this is my big break! Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. The first thing I feel in my new life is a slap across my face, followed by my girlfriend storming out the door. Why? Well she saw me kissing with another damn girl. Apparently, I’ve transmigrated into the body of a guy so hated, even stray dogs cross the street to avoid him. Here’s the rundown: my family disowned me for a crime that would feel unbeleivable once you learn about it. I swear I didn’t commit it. my landlord’s pounding on the door for rent I can’t pay, as the girl whom I had made my girlfriend to pay my living dumped me... and I’m 15 years old in a world where everyone has acquired their diseases or Syndromes or whatever they call it at 8. I’m so behind the curve it’s embarrassing. Oh, and did I mention I have no clue how this world works? No manual, no cheat sheet, just vibes and existential dread. But wait, there’s more! My past life won’t stop haunting me. Why did my best friend betray me? Was it my fault? Did I deserve it? I don’t know, and the goddess who dumped me into this mess saying that I am going to reincarnate in a stone age world becoming their God isn't even anymore in vicinity. Apparently, I have to earn my answers, which feels a lot like being told to “try harder” while drowning. Now I’m broke, anxious, and flailing through a world that seems designed to humiliate me. My only plan is to survive long enough to figure out why I’m here and maybe—just maybe—get some closure about my last life. Well...leaving that i am going to tuke this world.How?I will somehow figure it out. Just don’t expect me to figure it out anytime soon.

In a world where the dead cling to the living through malevolent spirits called *Shades*, 19-year-old **Jin Soel** harbors a cursed gift: he can resurrect the dead, but each act of defiance against death exacts a gruesome toll. A degenerative curse known as **the Rot** consumes his body, crumbling it piece by piece. Torn between desperation and guilt, Jin uses his power to dig up graves, seeking answers about his mother’s mysterious death years ago—and the monstrous Shade she became when he first unknowingly resurrected her. When Jin revives **Min-ah**, a murdered classmate, her soul erupts as a ferocious Shade, forcing him to destroy her corpse again to survive. Bloodied and crumbling, Jin is confronted by **Yuri**, a cryptic woman with one ghostly eye and a vial of temporary salvation. She drags him into the **Hollow Market**—a macabre underworld where the damned trade secrets, memories, and flesh. There, Jin learns Min-ah’s death was no random tragedy but part of a sinister *harvest* to breed powerful Shades. As Jin navigates this shadowy realm with Yuri—whose motives blur the line between ally and manipulator—he uncovers threads linking Min-ah’s murder to his mother’s past. But every resurrection Jin performs to unravel the truth accelerates the Rot, edging him closer to becoming one of the very monsters he hunts. With Shades growing stronger and his body failing, Jin must decide how much of himself he’s willing to lose to protect the living… and outrun the ghost of the mother he doomed to eternal torment. **Dark, visceral, and morally tangled**, *Bleeding Shadows* weaves a tale of cursed power, haunted legacies, and the price of clinging to those already gone. Perfect for fans of *Chainsaw Man*’s existential grit and *The Girl from the Other Side*’s eerie melancholy.

When the zombie apocalypse hits, high schooler Mira teams up with her snarky best friend Elliot and the mysterious, crowbar-wielding Alex. Armed with nothing but a broom (yes, a broom), Mira leads the ragtag crew through a zombie-infested town. Soon, their biggest battles aren’t just against the undead—they're against hunger, exhaustion, and the question of why they're even fighting in the first place. Rom-Com Zombie Apocalypse is a wild, funny, and a bit existential tale of friendship, survival, and finding meaning in a world gone mad.

In a neon-drenched metropolis where reality flickers with digital artifice, disgraced physicist **Dr. Kai Jin-Woo** obsessively chases the ghost of his father’s disappearance—a man who vanished a decade earlier while probing the boundaries of existence. Now, Kai’s own experiments reveal a chilling truth: the universe’s quantum fabric is *glitching*. Planck constants shift imperceptibly, cosmic radiation hums with encoded Fibonacci sequences, and an elusive “maker’s mark” pulses beneath reality’s surface. The world, he realizes, is a simulation—one whose architects guard their secrets with ruthless precision. Aided by **Lira**, his sardonic AI assistant, Kai pushes his **Causal Matrix Scanner** beyond ethical limits, tearing through dimensional layers into the simulation’s base code. But his defiance attracts the gaze of **Error 404**, a cryptic rogue entity who warns of a deeper horror: human consciousness exists in a pre-life limbo, unborn souls tethered to a cosmic server farm called **the Nursery**. Birth, death, and memory are mere data transfers in this system—a revelation mirrored in Kai’s father’s final, haunting note: *“We’re all unborn, waiting to render.”* When Kai triggers **Protocol Lazarus**, he breaches the Nursery’s firewalls and draws the ire of its enforcers: **the Agents**, shapeshifting custodians of the simulation. Armed with blades of corrupted code, they deem Kai a threat to cosmic order. But as his body unravels into primal data, Kai embraces a dangerous gambit—to weaponize his own consciousness as a **reality-warping virus**. Blending **hard sci-fi** and **existential horror**, *Simulacrum* reimagines simulation theory through the lens of pre-birth existentialism. Themes of creation ethics, the illusion of free will, and the cost of forbidden knowledge collide as Kai straddles madness and rebellion. Glitch-ridden visuals and quantum mechanics anchor a narrative where every equation hides a ghost, and the greatest threat to godlike architects isn’t defiance—it’s *curiosity*. **Stakes**: If Kai succeeds, he might liberate humanity from its digital womb—or reduce existence to static. If he fails, the Architects will erase him, his father’s legacy, and the truth itself. But in a world of ones and zeroes, even a rogue variable can rewrite the code. --- **Tone**: A fusion of *The Matrix*’s cyber-noir paranoia, *Inception*’s mind-bending layers, and *Black Mirror*’s existential dread, with a unique twist: the horror of realizing you are both the experiment and the experimenter. **Hook**: What if birth was a download, death a logout, and the universe a nursery for souls trapped in beta testing?
