something about love and how much it finds itself in everything you do. something about love and how impossible it is to contain.

Me maybe 8-9 years ago: BFDI is so cool and so is II! I love them, but too bad they're both over :( I'll just hang out for a bit before going back to other things.

Me maybe 5ish years ago: Well, I'm back. That was a fun endeavor. But BFB is taking too long to post literally anything, and II has basically ceased. Everything else is getting cancelled, so there's nothing really worth hanging around for. Peace dudes✌️

Me currently: I'M BACK IN THE F*CKING BUILDING AGAIN????? AUGHHHHH!! DAMN YOU ONE AAAAHHHHH!!!!!

All these years, I've lingered, but now I'm back. My style has developed much more since I've been gone lol. Now everybody's got some sick shoes and the most cookie-cutter gloves ever.

Except Algebraliens. They get paws.

Anyway, expect to see me around more, I have no idea how long this'll go for (especially with college and stuff).

Have a nice day bros :)

Escaping the dungeon is their clear goal, but first Thesa (the ex-paladin Witch) and her girlfriend? lover? domme? demoness will need to cross through a floor with an out-of-place theme: Candy! Will they make it through in tact or are they going to need a trip to the dentist when this is all done?

The next chapter of Paladin to Witch is the highest production value yet!

And the start of some silly nonsense!

Goes live: Tuesday, December 17 @ 11:00am PDT

Story summary and publishing details under the cut:

Indebted to the very demoness she was sent to kill, Thesa questions everything she’s ever known, bonds with the sexy [High Devil] Merijest, and practices her interpersonal skills. Can she help Merijest rebuild her army before it's too late?

Includes:

- Slow-ish burn GL romance

- [System]-lite LitRPG about two characters accustomed to life in a video-gamey world

- Steamy tension (no explicit sex scenes, mostly implications and tension)

- A reverse dungeon-crawl from the bottom of a kaiju-sized mimic

- An ex-Paladin trying her best not to stare at a casually nude demoness

- Weird monsters from the mind of a maniac author

- Very infrequent curse words. I counted 8 times in the first volume (45k+ words).

- Religious trauma. This one is especially going to appeal to the Catholic and Ex-Catholic girlies out there. Nobody does angst like we do, babey! (Nothing inside is strictly allegorical of any religion, but the sensibilities are definitely informed by a Catholic milieu.)

Updates Tuesdays at 11:00am PDT

Chapters hover around 1-2k words each

I've been percolating a lot on this since catching up to Undead Unluck a few months ago, and with the most recent chapters I think I can commit to it: this is maybe the strongest "video game-core" story I've ever read, and I mean that endearingly.

I haven't engaged very much with series like Sword Art Online or the various "REBORN IN ANOTHER WORLD THAT OPERATES ON VIDEO GAME RULES AND I'M LEVEL 9999 WITH MAXIMUM STATS (AND I GET A SLAVE HAREM)" LNs out there, but the impression I get is that the vast majority of them kinda just use the "video game" angle as a cynical hook. There's no passion for video games as a medium, certain mechanics from video games, or even just a specific video game; it comes across as "the NEETs who buy this garbage love video games", and they write a story with a main character who's meant to be projected on to who's The Strongest by Being So Good At Video Games and everyone likes them unconditionally and they may or may not get to have sex with beautiful anime girls (consent optional).

Undead Unluck comes across like it was written by someone who actually really likes video games- perhaps you might even call Tozuka a gamer. The structure of the story very quickly becomes video gamey- a party of Uniquely Powered Characters are given time-limited missions to fight Powerful Bosses (UMAs and Negators), and get rewards that will give them better odds against the Final Boss (literally God). Each set of missions brings ticks them closer to that Final Boss fight, and when they inevitably lose, the loop restarts, and they basically have to start again from scratch, except for two people who operate on "New Game +" rules: Undead, and whoever rides the Ark (which was always Unjustice).

The entire conceit of the second half of the story is that Fuuko has spent the last ~200 years of the current loop using the accumulated knowledge and experience from the previous loop doing what Victor and Juiz never thought to do: Metagaming and Side Quests.

The whole point of story from when Fuuko rode to arc to now is the execution of the God Run/Golden Route/True Ending by doing everything perfectly to save everyone. In doing so, the true antagonists are forced to reveal themselves early, and are put so hard onto their collective back foot that they literally (to the point that it was the name of a chapter) cheat to usher in the Final Boss early, which involves them splitting off into little chambers that protect the Final Boss, and the heroes having to break up into smaller parties for each fight.
