Is Almost Home Realistic

Raised by a devoted single mother and surrounded by six spirited brothers, Ada grew up in a small Nigerian village shaped by hardship, resilience, and unspoken dreams. With a father who vanished without a trace, life was a daily struggle to survive—but through grit and determination, Ada rises above poverty, heartbreak, and societal expectations to become a voice for women and children across the nation. Now a respected government official in Abuja, Ada seems to have it all—except love. That changes one rainy afternoon when a chance encounter with Kelechi, a gentle widowed architect with a young daughter, opens the door to a kind of love she never believed possible. As Ada learns to embrace vulnerability, she also reconnects with the joy of family, forgiveness, and new beginnings. But when her long-lost father suddenly reappears, Ada is forced to confront her deepest scars and the complex layers of her past. In a moving journey that weaves between village life and city politics, heartbreak and healing, Ada discovers that home isn’t just where you come from—it’s where your heart is safe. When Love Finds Home is a powerful tale of love, family, redemption, and the quiet strength of women. It is a celebration of Nigerian culture and the kind of love that isn’t perfect—but real, patient, and worth fighting for.

I’m no hero, no reincarnated prodigy—just a 47-year-old man, a native of Orario, and a long-time member of Ganesha Familia. I’ve seen gods rise, adventurers fall, and promises turn to blood in the dungeon’s dark. This is not a story of chosen ones or meteoric level-ups. It’s a grounded take on Danmachi—where survival means strategy, money can rival strength, and Familia politics are deadlier than monsters. I won’t rush to the bottom of the dungeon. I’ll show how Orario really works. Welcome to the side of Danmachi where reality bites. ———————————————————————————————————— Disclaimer: Danmachi (also known as Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) is the intellectual property of Fujino Ōmori, SB Creative, and other respective rights holders.

Two distant souls. One casual wave. A thousand almosts. In a world where glances linger longer than words, and silence speaks louder than promises, two people begin to drift closer—never quite colliding, never quite letting go. What starts as a gesture becomes a rhythm, and what was never supposed to mean anything slowly begins to mean everything. This is a story of slow-burning closeness, unspoken feelings, fractured friendships, and the dangerous beauty of being seen too deeply. Some love stories are loud. This one hums in the spaces between.

A possibly poor attempt at making a novel for the first time. In general, I'm trying to be realistic, a couple characters are based off of a couple of my friends. As the story goes on, characters can get traumatized, scarred for life, or losing limbs. Some may go insane just by wanting to go home, praying it's all a dream.

Arsol (Username: Hakkun) is your average eighteen-year-old tech nerd; he reads cliche light novels, plays video games (way too many), studies for exams, and he programs! Does he have friends? A social life, maybe? Nah, he’s an anti-social whose inner monologues revolve around how humans suck. He’s the type who blames the world for his problems: edgy, angsty, emo— thinks he’s smarter than everyone and has answers for the world’s crisis. Gotta give it to him, though, he a young talent at whatever he does. His skills for programming, gaming (FPS) as well as studying makes up for the fact that he’s an arse. So much so, that he stops going to school altogether and locks himself in his room, he’d rather be with his computer. Because Arsol is on a mission! He’s been collaborating with online strangers who are all equally gamers and computer nerds, who understand him, and who all have this idea to make this steampunk/dieselpunk game called ‘Hero of Emberstein.’ Now, Arsol won’t lie, he’s obsessed. Being one of the co-creators, he finds himself adding features and details he’d want in an MMORPG. The only thing he dislikes is the customizable character features; he never understands such a personalized activity. He prefers Gacha. After 3 years, the game is finally available for beta testing, his 7 online co-creators are all ready to click the play button. But little does Arsol know, he would for real be in the game, like in person, like ISEKAI-ed, like he could die, for real for real. What's worse is, everyone who clicked the play button for the beta test, has also been Isekaied. So like, maybe over a thousand or more? Arsol thinks it’s his fault innocent players are getting transmigrated into HIS game, because he remembers that he removed the 'EXIT' button as a harmless malfunctioning prank-- turned deadly?! Oops. Journey along with Arsol as he hides his identity as the creator, the culprit, and the administrator. And that time he finds out his 6 online friends are all here as well, but where?! Who?! UGH, THIS IS WHY HE HATES CUSTOMIZABLE CHARACTERS! ( I DO, IN FACT, OWN THE COVER )

Rae never meant to fall for her best friend. But when it’s Silas — sharp, radiant, untouchable Silas — it’s impossible not to. They met in high school, bonded through a school group project and never left each other’s side since. Silas was warm, magnetic, always pulling people toward her without even trying. Rae? She was the quiet one. The observer. And slowly, helplessly, she became the girl who fell in love with her best friend — the girl who could never say it out loud. Because everyone thought Silas liked someone else. And that someone else was the girl Rae once helped her get closer to. The one Rae used to cheer for, even when it hurt. Silas swore there was nothing between them — not once, but many times. But Rae saw it. Saw how close they were. Saw everything she wasn’t. So Rae stayed silent. Pretending. Smiling. Laughing. Carrying a love too heavy for seventeen. She made herself a quiet promise: If graduation comes, and they part ways — if they never see each other again — she’ll tell Silas the truth. But just when Rae begins to prepare for goodbye, the universe throws something unexpected their way: a chance to be alone. To be closer. To be something more. Now Rae is caught between the love she’s hidden for too long, and the terrifying possibility that Silas might have been waiting, too. A queer coming-of-age story about best friends, blurred lines, quiet promises, and the moment everything shifts. For anyone who's ever loved their best friend — silently, fiercely, and maybe… not in vain.

"Sissy, I brought you a gift." He shuddered in fear the moment he heard her voice. Whenever he heard her voice, he knew nothing good ever came out of it. "Please, not today." His voice made it obvious he was scared. She laughed, then touched his shoulder. He flinched, but she held him down. "Please." he said in almost a whisper. ***** "HI." she waved at him. "You must be the Riley everyone's talking of, right?" He was left dumbfounded, hearing her say she had heard about him. Everyone who had heard about him made sure to keep their distance, so just why was she trying to start a conversation with him? "If you are doing this to become popular, then you are very well welcome to be my friend. But if you are just naive, I would advise you to keep your distance." he said to discourage her. "We do have something in common. You get bullied, so you hate bullies, while I hate them just because they are bullies." "Hating them does not change the fact that you will get bullied if you befriend me." "Then I will have you watch me kick their asses if they try messing with us." "Are we friends now." she asked after they both laugh at her former words. "We are, as long as you are ready to kick some ass." "Bring it on."

This is a coming-of-age reflection on infatuation, identity, and the quiet strength it takes to choose yourself.
