During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies.

And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).

boyxboy Alphius [a very sassy AI] x Rian [a very grumpy robotics genius] Rule #1 of surviving the 22nd century: Never adopt a sassy AI from the dumpster. Especially if he’s hot. Rian is a robotics prodigy who’d rather talk to his overenthusiastic microwave than actual humans. His life? Tinkering with robots, writing codes, avoiding sunlight, and adding the quirkiest AI personalities into his household appliances. But when he drags home an android named Alphius from the dumpster — a smug, sassy disaster with a face “designed to ruin my productivity”— his quiet(ish) life implodes. The problem? • Alphius claims he’s “just a humble trash gremlin”… but he’s clearly lying. • His code is alive — a self-evolving tangle of algorithms that rewrites itself faster than Rian can debug. Every line he cracks spawns ten more, whispering secrets about a past Rian can’t remember… and a future he’s not ready to face. • He’s weirdly obsessed with Rian’s “abomination-grade” coffee (as proclaimed by the coffee machine, who’s considering unionizing). • His glitching screens keep flashing warnings about an incoming asteroid, but Rian could not find a single news on it.
