He was an anomaly not meant to be in this world, yet fate would deem otherwise. After all, the fate of the world just may hang in the balance.

He didn't know the first thing about running a school, nor fixing a political disaster spanning all of Remnant. Hell, he didn't even know how to deal with the world-ending conspiracy in the background, let alone a former-headmaster-possessed child. Yet here he was, leading Beacon Academy into a new age of glory. Or ruin. Definitely a fair chance of the latter…

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rebuffed, his only option was to return home in disgrace or forge a new life in Vale. Opening a diner was an impetuous decision, being good at it a stroke of luck. Becoming the favourite haunt for students, teachers and criminals alike…? That was neither, but it sure did keep things interesting. Wasn't the civilian life supposed to be easier?

Jaune had always dreamed of being a Hero, of being someone. But dreams were just that; for in the world of Remnant the Class you are born with determines your fate. Jaune was born a Blacksmith, and thus that was his destiny. But when a strange opportunity allows him to change that, can a simple Blacksmith become something more within the Beacon Academy for Heroes?

In this tale, the struggle between humanity and mutants ends in a mutant victory, but that victory has some odd and unexpected twists. Personally, I don't think Magneto would be happy.

Victory can prove bitter, especially when you're the only one alive to see it. With the world in chaos and everyone he ever loved dead, Jaune Arc makes a deal with the devil for one last chance to go back and change it all. But devils don't play by the same rules as humans, and Salem never did say how far back he'd go. Or how much deeper the war between her and Ozpin really went.

At the moment of transformation, when the connection was to be established and a young girl's life forever changed, the Red Shadow intervened, and the Administration shard became its tool on the path to human salvation. With the power of every hero ever immortalized in myth and legend, what can that girl do but be a hero herself? -A not-quite-crossover with FSN/Prisma Illya-

When a sick child asks to meet a villain (instead of a celebrity or superhero like with most wishes), someone's got to have the guts to track these wanted individuals down. It's not as easy as one would think. And what's there to worry about: they're all big softies anyways... right?

A young man from earth is reborn into the DC universe with the powers of the gamer. Except, the circumstances of his reincarnation, are less than satisfactory. Dark Fic. DarkGamer!Fic. Eventual Antagonistic!Gamer.

Taylor gains powers in the locker; this much is familiar. But the power she gets, and what she does with it, begins to change things around considerably. Faced with the pressure of the power she has, and official apathy, she must make her own decisions, and take a different route to achieve her goals. There will be trouble.

In a world where the Avatar wasn't found, the Fire Nation took over two nations and they strive to overcome the last one. Water Tribe warrior Sokka seeks to fight for his people's rights, but he's captured by his enemies. His life is no longer in his hands as he fights as a Gladiator, and his fate will eventually depend on the Fire Nation Princess, who needs him for her own ends...

The Emperor wasn't sure how he ended up in a different universe, or what the parasite leeching off Humanity was. But he was the guardian of Mankind, and there was at least one person on this world worthy of taking up his mantle.

The life of a young mutant is perilous enough on its own. Follow the experiences of a student entering the hallowed halls of the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, learning just what it takes and what it means to count himself as one of a race that is feared and targeted by many.

A girl reborn into the world of ninja wants to escape the cycle of violence. Power is the only thing that brings freedom in the ninja world and she will have freedom... at any cost. However breaking the bonds she forms won't be as simple as she imagines. AU SI.

Snippets and pieces of Persona 3, showing Death's host and the Kirijo heiress and that sometimes one's own humanity is enough to make a difference. That absolute destruction isn't enough to stop one simple truth. That two in harmony surpasses one in perfection.

So, dying sucks, but hey, I get a chance at reincarnation with a special power, and that power is 'The Gamer' so that's awesome! But... I'm being reincarnated into the world of Naruto, where giant chakra beasts can nuke you, crazy Uchiha roam who want to rule the world with the power of the moon, a guy who thinks he's a god wants to 'share his pain'. Yup, I am going to die again...

I've read several stories about people waking up and finding out that they received the abilities of a Gamer through mysterious means. I never expected to become one of those people. Nor did I expect to wake up in a field in Ylisse, of all places. Well, you know what they say. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Rated M for safety.

The only reason Midoriya got to talking with Ashido was because his bandages needed reapplying. Still, this small hand of fate was all that was needed to spark a friendship and a far closer bond between the two classmates. I honestly have no idea what their ship name is, so I'ma call it MinaDeku

Something unexpected happened to me. I'm stuck inside the body of the (future) greatest thief in Vale, with the power of The Gamer given to me for some unknown reason. All in all, it could be worse. For now I have given myself a mission, actually being the greatest thief in Vale! I also need to screw over Cinder, save Pyrrha and Penny, and not end up dead in the process.

Taylor becomes a dragon. Hijinks ensue.

It is the 45th Millennium and the galaxy is dying.

Shirou only had the best intentions that night he chose to cast aside his ideals. Now trapped in a strange world where Gods, Angels & Devils run rampant, he's about to learn just what kind of road said intentions have built...provided he can finish his second year without accidentally kick-starting another Holy War.

An edgy hardcore Skyrim Player completes what he believes to be an amazing feat in game, only to wake up the following morning realizing that he had become far more intimate with his character than he ever dreamed of being. Now, if only someone could explain why he was in Japan, and why floating words from the game appeared at the most inopportune moments. DarkFic. Semi-Gamer Fic.

After being put on probation, Akira Kurusu is forced to move to Tokyo, living with a prosecutor who is the daughter of his family's late friend, and her younger sister. However, unknown to him, ruin awaits...as does the distortion that lies within the hearts of corrupt adults.

"With swords that aren't yours, with skills that aren't yours, for dreams that aren't yours. Your entire existence is a lie!" - "Then I'll show you that even fake dreams can become reality." A different choice, a different path, a different FATE. Shirou/Multi

The Hamlet. As dark and depraved a destination as possible to find in this twisted nightmare of a world. A place suited for one such as him and It was more than happy to kill the terrors that made their home here. Those who saw his brand scorned him, hated him, were revolted, until a chattering little bird sat down in front of him. Rated M for safety. Slow burn. Beta: TheSilverboar

A chance decision leads to an unlikely discovery. The mention of a rumor leads to an unbelievable mystery. And the connection to a long forgotten family leads to an unforgettable experience. Welcome to Inaba, Yu Narukami... or should I say Shirou Emiya? (Co-Authored by Nameless Flame Wielder up to Ch.21)

Being reborn in the world of RWBY means that the Grimm are your natural enemies. My case is the complete opposite. I'm not really sure who I pissed off in my previous life but being reborn as a Beowolf was definitely not something I expected. (SI)

He had been captured; Alex Mercer knew that much was obvious. But if that was the case, why had his captors just left him there without security? How had he ended up in a bunker buried in some kind of giant desert? Where was everyone? And when the hell did bottlecaps become currency?

As a child, Izuku decided it would be better if he were Quirkless than to have a power that scared everyone. Now a teenager and looking to enter U.A, he finds himself as the protege of All Might and a student of the best heroes in the nation- but there's no running from a part of you, and he's learning the hard way that you have to accept all of yourself to be a real hero.

Now, for the foreseeable future, he's stuck in the crime capital of America with no money, resources or a plan. But what else was new?

The Hunt begins again. Leaving Yharnam to its fate, the Good Hunter finds himself in the war torn country of Eostia. Tasked with ending the war, he joins the Black Dog Mercenaries as they launch an assault on the Black Fortress of Olga Discordia. If only he knew how complicated his life was going to become.

It's one thing to enter the world of heroes and villains, it's another thing entirely to find your way back out again. That's a bitter truth to swallow when you want no part of the life to begin with. A hasty decision from a young man with his back against the wall sends him down a path of which there is no return. OC main character.

"A new overlady, you say? She's a little short and flat-chested, although her temper is impressively vile. Oh well. Needs must when needs must. Too long have the lands of Halkeginia gone without true Evil. There are fluffy bunnies and happy ponies all over the place, frolicking! It makes me quite sick! No, it doesn't matter if she wants to or not. Because Evil always finds a way."

The adventure isn't over just because the summer is. And as the pressure of life and heroing builds, Ben and Gwen start to count on each other more and more. Ben/Gwen. Original Version

Gaia had, at last, slain Alaya but has yet to achieve victory. In its last cry to save humanity, Alaya spreads its dying embers all over the globe.

There his actions lead to him becoming the Eighth god killing Devil King. Now he has to deal with becoming someone who rules where he walks, even if he doesn't want to. That and trying to find a way back home.

The sun rises over Brockton Bay.

...because you can't simply use Tsukuyomi on a bloody seven-year-old and not expect serious consequences.

In one world, a villain whose powers should have made him a renowned world terrorist fades into obscurity after suffering defeat by the Straw Hats. In this world, someone else takes the reins earlier and brings about an age of pirates that has absolutely nothing to do with adventure and nakamaship. "Rape. Pillage. Burn. T'is a pirate's life for me, savvy?" SI-OC as Mr. Five.

Take a decent person. Throw them into a situation, and a body, with powers that they'd never been meant to handle because of bad paperwork...then run with it all the way down. When you're a Hentai Orc that is seemingly obsessed with subverting nearly all the tropes that normally comes with what you are...it isn't like you can do much else, right?

Akira Kurusu. Ann Takamaki. Two young high school students turned daring Phantom Thieves, stealing the malice out of the hearts of the corrupt to protect the innocent. The Joker and the Panther fight onward against darkness, their friendship and camaraderie leading them to adventure, danger, and something intimate only they share. [Language/lewd content.]

1934, one year since becoming Spider-Man. He'd dealt with gangsters, insane scientists and whatever else old New York could spare. Then suddenly things...changed. A world brimming with 'progress', wannabe clowns calling themselves super and a noisy dame in white. Didn't matter; he'd still be the one left standing. (Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Gwen crossover)

The fight against Behemoth in New Delhi goes horribly wrong. Taylor, almost the only survivor, is sent back into the past by Phir Sē to try to fix matters. But there are complications ...

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

His sacrifice saved the world and freed him from Grima. Unfortunately, Robin quickly learns such freedom comes with a price. Struggling to sate his powerful new desires, a new strategy is needed. Now, the Shepherds find Ylisse's greatest tactician's schemes are directed not at a battlefield, but at them! Robin/All Females. Manipulation. Mature Content. (Latest Target: Red-Heads)

Taylor gets a different set of powers, and canon begins to diverge almost immediately ...

One day, a young student of Signal Academy receives a package from home, containing the journal of a long dead relative. But what is Jaune Arc going to do with said journal, and how will it change not only his world, but that of those around him?

All life on Earth had been consumed by Blacklight. With no Biomass to feed on, Blacklight had to evolve, adapt, and grow. Now a collective Council of Aliens discovers the existence of such a life form. How do the aliens see a form of life that is viral, how they deal with it, what are the consequences to the galaxy of such a race existing at all.

She was a harbinger of darkness, a killer, a monster...and she was happily married to a man who had no idea.

Gaia has finally noticed she has a bit of a Worm problem. She decides the best cure is Taylor Hebert. With the power of the Gamer, Taylor won't just be escalating in fights. She'll be escalating in all facets of her life. Brockton Bay and Earth Bet, I hope you're ready, because Taylor wants to play a game.

The hunter is a monster, a titan, not a boy. This is a fact he has known for as long as he has lived in the forest, for as long he can remember. The forest is quiet but for the crooning of birds, the rush of misty water into the hidden valleys and the deep lumbering steps of his kin. That is until the day that changes everything. The day the humans came. The day he saw his human.

Emiya Kiritsugu was happy living the rest of his short days. He had put his past behind him... until he began to dream of futures that had yet to be. Let it be known that the Magus Killer was not dangerous simply because he was dying and had no plans to fight.

Brockton Bay. A slowly rotting, fog-wreathed city in a decaying world where things lurk in the shadows. And that's what I thought it was even before my powers opened my eyes. I wish I could ignore what I see. I wish I could forget. I wish I could escape. But I can't. The Other Place is always there.

/AU-ish/ "You're my brother. That's got to count for something. Right, Zuzu?" If Azula and Zuko had always cared for each other, how different would their live's paths have been?

Jaune Arc, Field Agent of the VSS - Vale's Secret Service, or at least that's what he's been told. All he knows is that they found out about his faked transcripts, and now he works in the interests of the Kingdom. With terrorists on the horizon, not to mention a shady organisation and an even shadier group operating under Ozpin, what's a bumbling teen turned secret agent to do?

In a world where the villains outnumber the heroes, where black and white becomes grey, there is a new force entering the game. A weapon more powerful than anyone can fully understand. And as the old saying goes, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. There will be changes in the world, and cities will shake. A Prototype/Worm crossover. Rated M for blood. Up for adoption.

A man from Earth wakes up to find himself stuck in the body of a fictional teenage boy with an ability that turns his life into a video game and foreknowledge of events to come. What could possibly go wrong? A take on the RWBY/Gamer crossover niche with an SI twist, a focus on world and character building, and fleshing out some of the details RT missed. Rated 'M' for a reason.

A different upbringing leaves Harry Potter with an early knowledge of magic and a view towards the Wizarding World not as an escape from the Dursleys, but as an opportunity to learn more about it. Unfortunately, he quickly finds that there are many elements in this new world that are unwilling to leave the Boy-Who-Lived alone.

With his life turned into a Game, Harry now has to raise a Phoenix, uncover the Founders' darkest secrets, deal with political manipulations and live through Hogwarts all while trying desperately to not swear too much.

Somewhere in the Yeerk pool, you know someone is doing this.

Where a girl finds true friends when she looks within. And where friends see what lies beneath the surface.

The Ark wasn’t the end. Stranded on an alien world where the rules of reality no longer apply, the Master Chief and his allies will face new challenges. When darkness rises, they must show that sometimes, a few brave souls can make all the difference.

Taylor Hebert died in the locker. But instead of staying dead she rose again, now armed with the power to crush the gangs and those that wronged her. Don't worry though, there's nothing left to fear but fear herself.

Drunken nights can lead to both regretful mornings and new opportunities, particularly if those opportunities are in the nude cuddling your shirtless back...

Tragedy at the Vytal Tournament leads to discovery as Jaune Arc discovers his Semblance and its ability to go back in time to undo his mistakes. Unfortunately, it only activates upon death. And...

After months of enduring her teasing, Kaji decides to indulge a little and accepts one of Asuka's many invitations to Misato's empty apartment. ...just a little, of course.

Daisy is the tomboyish, clumsy yet fiery princess of Sarasaland and King Bowser is absolutely smitten. As a result chaos, turmoil and humor ensues. Why? Because things are never easy for the desert blossom. Bowsy pairing!

[Indefinite Hiatus] When Taylor went into the locker, she drew the attention of two beings. One offered an absent thought, and a broken tool that wasn't even meant for her. The other took a more personal approach.

Niijima Makoto is tasked to take down the Phantom Thieves. Spoiler alert: She gets her heart stolen. — Police!Makoto. Akira:Makoto.

Seasons 1, 2 and 3 of RWBY, told through the eyes of Russel Thrush and his team. Friendship, drama, (hopefully) some humour to build up some characters with a lot of potential who, at the moment in the show, are fairly 2D. CRDL-centric, but with plenty of interaction with the other teams. Russel/Yang ultimately.

Yaoyorozu Momo and Midoriya Izuku, both popular students of Class 1-A with amazing Hero potential - and together, they have zero potential! The two can hardly hold a decent conversation between them, let alone find a reason to talk to one another. But if either of them was given the chance to turn things around, would they take it?

A shield? Okay admittedly I don't know how to use a shield. But a sword? That I know how to use. Jaune P.O.V.

Fourteen-year-old Shinji Ikari finds himself being mentored by the greatest English teacher in the multiverse. The real question is, will the strange man called the Doctor help save the world - or end it? (Cover art by Epsthian-Artist on DeviantArt. Used with permission.)

AU. Anakin Skywalker is captured and sold into slavery to Darth Sidious at the tender age of nine. Padmé Amidala, Queen of Naboo, faces the horrors of the Trade Federation's invasion without the help of the Galactic Senate. Both become warped by their experiences; hardened, vicious, cunning. But then they meet their match… in one another. And it changes the Republic for all time.

Life was simple beyond the walls, nothing but the occasional conversation with an angsty squirrel to bother her. But as her world collides with the Scouts, she must now endure Captain Levi's wrath, the Scout's suspicion, and that incessant need to be a smart-ass. They suspect her of being the Colossal - the main problem being, she's so much more. Life wasn't so simple in chains.

What would you do if you could see death? If you'd touched emptiness itself, had it invade your soul, infest your mind, and whisper in your ear, telling you how to kill anything? How would you handle knowing you could never not see, never not comprehend the end of everything? Because for Taylor, that's reality, and there are no easy answers. Kara no Kyoukai influences.

Alcohol is a presence in all aspects of Humanity and Faunuskind. It breaks, helps, and heals. The people who serve it find they're the people who can help. After a rejection at Beacon, Jaune finds his place to belong at a bar, hoping to recover from his past mistakes by helping others in need. Cover: Hanisu93

Nerdboy falls into Fire Emblem. Nerdboy uses SCIENCE (dubiously) to solve problems. And when I say Science, I mean the kind that invariably happen when you give magic to someone who watches anime. Takes small elements across all of Fire Emblem universe.

Qrow was only in the Wilds to investigate some ridiculous rumor about friendly Grimm. Instead, he found a boy that could command them. AU.

A nerd has reincarnated as a Zerg Larva... and now he has been dropped into the Warhammer 40K. There is no time for peace. No Respite. No forgiveness. There is only WAR and the Swarm!

When Jaune woke up back in his house with his sisters and family, all he could do was sigh. Every time he died he was forced to start over again, and this was what... the one thousandth time? More? If it doesn't matter how hard he tries, doesn't matter how much he fights. Then maybe it's time to just kick back and enjoy himself. Fate can find someone else to be its whipping boy.

Starting after Shamshel/Episode 4, angels arrive in a different chronological order than in canon, as do certain other events. In the midst of all this, Shinji, Asuka and Rei form bonds to each other, that will eventually result in romance. But of course, even so angels screw things up, SEELE keeps plotting and Gendo advances his scenario.

Time travel is dangerous, especially for those unaware of how time works. Is time a linear path or is it a convoluted vortex? A young Magus finds himself in medieval Britain. Will Emiya Shirou fall or flourish in an age of swords?

He didn't know the first thing about teaching, Hell, he didn't even know the first thing about fighting! A shame then, that his forged documents painted the picture of an accomplished and skilled warrior. Now he's trapped teaching students his own age how to be hunters, when he doesn't even know himself!

It all started with a joke, a drunk truck driver and dreams of a harem and ended with a trip to the hospital, a broken leg, a crutch and the ability to see numbers everywhere. Yeah, Life isn't too kind on Issei. Sadly enough, he could see that it was about to get whole lot more complicated.

The bubbly online streamer, personality, and South Korean superstar known as D•Va - whose face nobody has seen - is in reality a melancholic student. But Hana Song has her world turned over when she and a 'classmate' of hers are thrown into the Omnic Crisis as Overwatch's newest members. D•Va x Younger!Mercy. Slow burn. Canon-divergent AU. Coarse language.

"Her hateful gaze was all too familiar, almost a mirror when he saw past the crimson color, and slit pupils." Because we all know the scientists of Jurassic World had proven themselves incapable of exercising discipline when it came to temptations. Why would it be any different with creating the Indominus? Constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated!

All Jaune Arc ever wanted to do was to enter Beacon and become a hero, but Arcs don't give up just because people see through their fake transcripts! After months of hard work, he finally manages to enter Beacon... as the Supreme Commander and Glorious Leader of a twice-reformed organization now threatening to engulf Remnant in an all-out world war. Uhh, Oops? Move over, Cinder.

It started with them, it would end with them.

You mortals always amuse me. I give you a taste of power, and more often than not, I watch you go mad with the very power I've bestowed upon you. You believe that you know me, what I desire, and why I do the things that I do. In truth, none of you understand why I give my Mark. I am an observer, but I am also much more than that. I believe it's time I tell my side of the story…

The threads of fate are twisted and severed, and one destiny is traded for another. An unexpected development at Mount Fake allows Tatsumi to follow a different road, one he now walks with General Esdeath by his side. But alone, the Jaegers and Night Raid stand no chance against the virulent corruption within the Capital. Two wolves, together on the hunt, must join their packs...

Trapped in darkness, drowning beneath the sound of skittering things in the walls, Taylor connected with something infinitely greater. As a fyi, the SpaceBattles, Sufficient Velocity and Questionable Questing forums ("Goblin Queen") has non-canonical omake which are amusing... they've gone meta. Also, Goblin Queen has a TV Tropes entry/page. 17th arc is one... more something. :3

In a world where your allies can be just as dangerous as your enemies, sometimes it can be difficult for a criminal mastermind to find a little stress relief. That blonde idiot, Jaune, was just unimportant enough, just malleable enough, to be a viable option. It was meant to be a one time thing, an easy lay. Emotions were never supposed to get involved.

Soul and Maka meet at a small liberal arts college; romance, bickering, and hilarity ensues. Slowest burn you'll ever read. Slice of life style going by date entries. Accompanying art can be found linked on my blog linked from my profile.

What makes a hero? A Cause? Survival? Power? Maybe all of the above. Evangelion/Exalted

My name ain't important. It's my job that matters. Brigand, bandit, cutthroat, outlaw - call me what you will. I rove and reave this Weald as I like, and you got a problem with that you can tell it to the sixteen-pounder behind me. This is my story. Rated T for violence and extremely strong language. Story is 100% complete - enjoy!

The men and women who had saved the world were now being torn apart by it... and he could do nothing but watch.

Nadalia, the Child of Dark, escaped the sovereign's invasion of the Brume tower, finding refuge in the dark chasm. It was from there that her spirit wandered somewhere else. A place beyond the scope of light. Beyond the reach of Dark. Finding a very special mortal girl. Seek strength Taylor. The rest... will follow.

Jaune survives a childhood tragedy and life in the wilderness with the most unlikely allies. The summoned manifestations of slain Grimm defend him through his travels until he meets a band of refugees and a criminal willing to help smuggle them into the safety of Vale - and Jaune into Beacon Academy where he finally finds purpose for the sword at his hip.

Questioning only briefly why he's there anyway, a human from the real world ignores the rules of the game and drags Oscar of Astora on a grand adventure to discover the truth of the conflict between Light and Dark. But more importantly to impress his waifu.

What if, when the Angels are killed, they become literal Shoulder Angels and haunt the pilots? Surely only good things would come of it, right? Maybe?

Whipping branches and grasping thorns tore at her skin and clothes, shredding them and leaving scores of cuts and gashes. Blood trickled from them, leaving small droplets behind as she urged her rapidly flagging legs onwards. She fled so that she could live. So that even for a second longer, she would live. And so there was rain, and blood, and those condemned.

It began after I got rejected by Signal again, though at the time I had no idea what was happening. Titles and levels suddenly appeared above people's heads and then weird things began to happen, as if I was in a game. And then, I realize I was in a game. But...if my life is a game, I'm going to win it. My name's Jaune Arc and I'm the Gamer. RWBY/The Gamer.

I suddenly realize that the dynamic between us has changed, warped into something alien and altogether different. The lines are a blur now, leaving us both unsure of where we stand. It's sad but if someone had told me I'd be having a civil conversation with Victoria today, I would have got Chloe to punch them in the face; this coming from the human time machine. Max/Victoria

Being dead kind of sucks...

Valka was not the only one taken that fateful night. She refused to let go of the tiny bundle in her arms. Her only child, her son Hiccup.

The Heart reveals many secrets about the world and the people around Corvo. Sometimes too many secrets. If Corvo didn't know any better, he might even say the Heart is a bit of a gossip. Written for Tumblr's Fugue Feast in July 2014.

Ancient artifacts of immense power. Murderous synthetics. Ruthless megacorps. Unscrupulous mercenaries. Genocidal stellar god-machines. Incompetent galactic governments. Claptrap dubstep. The horrors of the galaxy are many, but there's one thing a good, mentally-unstable fortune-seeking antihero can rely on: the gun at his, her, or its side. Mass Effect/Borderlands fusion.

Prince of Gotham, adopted son of billionaire and playboy, a jock, and he is only a junior in high-school, Richard Grayson can't ask for more. Kori Anders, outcast, loner, freak, and abused her whole life, is keeping so much from the world. What happens when Richard is looking for a math tutor and he hires Kori? Richard faces a darker side of life and he does not like it at all.

Good. Evil. All of it is so... trite. Only one thing matters. Knowledge. Once you understand how the universe ticks... well, only then can you truly be special.

Becoming Shiroe meant more than gaining a few centimeters and some cool spells.

She was a very disturbed child. Terrible, debilitating nightmares. Hallucinations. Hysteria. She never had a chance at a normal life. But now at least Louise has a chance to summon a beautiful and powerful familiar at the Springtime Summoning Ritual. And somewhere else, a seven year old girl cries for release.
