Retcons

Extra of Anarchy

In today's dystopian world, regret is the number one leading factor behind the creation of fantasy. For a bundle of regrets such as Mark, fantasy was a place where he could choose. And choice was a liberty he never seemed to have. Abused and controlled. Just a sacrificial pawn in another man's game. He absolutely loathed it. But in the very bitter end of his drone-like life, he was given a choice. "Remember that novel you read a few years back, all while cursing it in every chapter's comments?" "...Yeah?" "Well, that was my world..." "Oh..." Mark was given the choice to transmigrate. To right his wrongs; a second chance to live a fulfilling life. But there was always a catch. Mark would never truly be free of bondage. It was up to him to snap the chains of Authority. And in his wake, there would be Anarchy. ────── If you love extra stories, I think you'll really like this. Because I love extra stories! But with all their issues and faults, I felt I could do much better. Updates will be daily, 1-2 chapters a day. English is in fact my first language! Therefore, grammatical errors are unacceptable! Don't settle for less. I frequently go back to re-edit my chapters to ensure that my story is quality. Unfortunately, that wipes out the paragraph comments and may cause a disconnect if you’re caught up as I end up retconning stuff you’ve already read :P This is just my somewhat meta (and mostly subversive) take on the 'Extra' genre of transmigration stories. I'm having a blast writing it so far, and I hope that leaks into the writing and overall plot decisions for you all to eat up. No Harem. Single FL. The Anarchy part of the title will take a bit to get to since I want progression and development to feel natural and earned. Or it may end up being irrelevant to the story, I’ll have to see when I get deeper in, just keeping it real Despite the loose tone of the story, I'm really picky about what I write, and I really try to ensure that what I'm putting out is quality. If you think I'm being a lazy bastard or if there are any glaring issues with my story, please please please leave a comment.

Infinite Flow: ML… Where TF are You?! [BL]

AUTHOR NOTE 14.05.2024: Hello all! Sorry for the long wait, I wrote myself into a literal corner and realised I have to retcon a few things in arc 4 before I can move on with the story. Will try to get this fixed in the soonest! Really sorry for the wait TT o TT **** Infinite/Unlimited Flow horror BL novel Might be a parody. And MC might be a villain.... 1v1 Introducing: A suicidal and bored MC and… wait, where the f&?! is the ML?! *** Lam Thanh Van believes it’s about time someone ended his miserable life. But being an immortal has hindered his path to Hell. Scratch that, Hell is off limits with the terrifying speed his body stitches itself back together, no matter how much someone might hack him to pieces. With such a long and torturous life of trying to finish himself and failing miserably, he imagines that his death would be grand, like slaying a dragon - or a very persistent cockroach. Now, the only problem was finding a hero worthy of such a cause. *** [The last player has arrived. Players, prepare for briefing.] [Welcome to the annual 2023rd survival championship.] The grand doors to the dome slowly pulled close, drawing everyone’s gazes over to the lone figure standing by himself, like a rabbit frozen in the headlights. In front of the sea of players, fawn eyes dilated with fright. Fresh tears still clung to the lashes that framed the eyes so green they reminded the people of ocean waves crashing to the white sandy shore. Long limbs were clad in a simple T-shirt with a pair of washed-out jeans hugging his slim waist. Messy lavender hair and snow-white skin tinted with faint pink seemed ethereal in the scene. Like a magnolia tree growing in the desert… or a white lotus sprouting from a pile of bullshit. One brave individual broke away from the herd, cold eyes set on the last player. ”Stay with us if you want to live.” Lam Thanh Van raised his gaze up to the looming man, green eyes drenched with tears, his lips trembling as he could only muster a nod. [All players, scenario one will commence now. Good luck and try not to die.] —— When nothing is as it seems - who can you trust? ML: Not the author, that’s for sure. The synopsis is just one huge clickbait- *Author smacks this insolent child with a hardcover edition of the Bible*: Quiet, you! Or I won’t let you appear even after the halfway mark! MC: … You evil bish!! —- T/W: This is mature content. A sprinkle of horror, a teaspoon of gore, topped with a handful of clownery. Some papapa is added as a garnish at the end. Consume at your own digression. A/N: This is an original work by LinShui. The cover is not mine, as I have negative skills in any illustrative art. Will commission for a cover when I’m no longer a broke bish. Do let me know if this is your art and you want to take it down, thanks! #unrequitedlove

Flesh Scribe

With a practiced ease, he picked up the book titled "Flesh Scribes" and flipped through its contents, occasionally glancing at the paragraphs. "The name Flesh Scribe was created as a blanket term for a large variety of trades related to augmenting organic matter. The name was coined as such to be derogatory to the members of such professions as for a long period of time they weren't considered a true pathway. Somethig they happily took and ran with, making the once shameful title something to respect. The etymology of different names in… " "Flesh Scribes have been around for centuries in many forms. From the Gashi tribe's warrior markings, Insectoids of the Southern Hive Nation known for carving modified runes into their carapaces, mages of the Tygen race streamlining spells by imbedding pre-made templates, the reclusive members of..." "Though they have only been fully recognized as a proper 'pathway' within the last six decades, they have very quickly become one of the most sought-after professions dew to their..." "One of the easiest and most simple magic 'languages' that both Rune Scribes and Flesh Scribes learn is a form of non-functional, simplified runic writing, centered on the surface level, that utilizes mana as a template energy source, called 'Basic.' In the following lessons, you will be taught 'Basic' as well as how to translate it into just about any form of simplified, mana-based, 'language'." [][][][][][][][][][][][][][] I'm a novice writer who's just trying their best. If your reading this early on then as a heads up with every chapter I release I'm probably going to modify, retcon, or just straight up delete certain parts of the beginning chapters. Over time as I flesh out the story and find a writing style I'm comfortable with; these changes should greatly die down. If you have any criticisms or critique you would like to give I'll try my best to pay attention to them. Also the chapter updates are just going to be erratic for now. Not because I'm not trying, but because I'm pumping just about every second of my free time into this and I can, mabey, get an update out every 2 to 3 days for now.

Entropy of the Dead 9

* * * The Synopsis will be in the Glossary* * * (Haven't decided if I'm actually going to add R-18 and excessive gore scenes or not! And yes, the image is AI-generated. I'm terribly untalented at drawing and I'm too broke to commission art, but I promise I will in the future when I can afford it.) * * * This is my first novel and I don’t expect it to be good since I’m just starting out. So please read my story and critique it. I want to know what I did or am doing wrong and how to improve or what to learn from it. I am well aware that my story would never get close to a 9 since I’m new at this, but I’m at the very least aiming for a 7 or a 7.5 rating. I am more than willing to accept criticism, and I understand if I wrote something stupid, but please don’t give me an overly negative attitude about it. * * * – 「Authors Notes」 - I will do what I can to keep chapters around or over 1500 words per chapter. - Since I am new and have a job, I will do my best to hopefully complete at least one chapter within two or three weeks until I improve and can hopefully reduce that time. - I have many ideas and concepts that I really like and I also drew inspiration from several games and other media. I will do my best to use, build on, add to, and or reference these things so please tell me if I’m just blatantly plagiarizing them. I want to write my own story without simply reinventing the wheel, rewriting a copy and paste, or stealing someone else's idea. - As a new writer, I will definitely make a lot of mistakes, so I would definitely appreciate it if you could help point out if and when I make grammatical errors, contradictions, and retcon things. I will try to go back and fix my mistakes on my own, but I would appreciate it if you could spot me on them as well. - I plan on having a semi big cast of characters. I understand that multiple POVs can be annoying and ruin the story or pacing or both so I promise to do my best to focus solely on my big 3. - Though I want to, I don’t know how to properly write adult scenes that will fit well with certain moods I’m putting the characters in. I don’t want to add a needless or mindless adult scene just because two people finally decided they like each other or something. I’ll see if I can capture the mood properly. Please judge me if I don’t, though. - Since one of my characters is supposed to know everything that's happening within the story I'll do my best to make him speak as naturally about these things as possible. - One thing I really liked about a popular anime I liked was how they included bits of information, such as abilities, unique equipment, enemies, locations, and other details about the world before and after the short commercial break so I plan on trying to have some short notes/information about the world at the bottom of every chapter. * * * Thank you for choosing to read my novel, I hope it's something you look forward to reading * * *
