Curiosity of God

BosonConfidential
When college physics student Mizuki Hakuto faces the obligatory bus-kun death of an isekai protagonist, he's brought face-to-face with a divine entity. When not mocking Mizuki, the so-called godling explains the nature of the universe – gods, godlings, mythical beasts, and more. Most importantly, magic is real. Just...not on Earth. Inspired by Earth's manga and having a penchant for drama, the godling offers Mizuki the opportunity to experience these things on a different world. The world is ruled by a strange god that treats it like a divine petri dish, and it's filled with interesting creatures the god collected from all across the universe. The god of this strange planet seems welcoming and helpful at first, but Mizuki quickly realizes that all is not as it seems in the magical world of Azura. Wielding science and newfound sorcery, Mizuki investigates the fundamental laws of magic, the nature of the divine, and more, but his progress is watched in secret by powerful forces. As he gains knowledge and power, and his darker nature is revealed, will the gods sit idly by? FAQ: Q – What's the overall tone of this story? A – It seems pretty lighthearted at first, but the trajectory of the story makes it progressively darker. I'd say the story takes itself fairly serious at times, but the characters' personalities lend to plenty of comedic dialogue. Especially in the lull between major events. Q – Isekai tropes? A – Yes. Some are leaned into, some are mocked, but most make an appearance. Q – Is the MC's prior life relevant? A – Yes! The MC relies heavily on knowledge specific to Earth, and especially his science background. The MC trying to reconcile his scientific understanding from Earth with this newfound variable of magic is a major theme of the story. Q – Is there slavery in this isekai? A – Yes, and it's not a pretty industry. However, the MC detests the slavery on Azura. The story won't shy away from the effect it has on the lives of those the MC meets. Q – Is the MC overpowered? A – Absolutely...by mortal standards. Q – You tagged this as 'romance'...is there a harem? A – Yup. It takes a long time for the second romance to happen, and the harem always remains very small, but eventually it happens.

Pokémon: Prince of Thorns

So. I messed up. Like... “broke reality, flipped off causality, and forced God to factory reset me with a sigh” kind of messed up. One moment, I was trying to do the right thing. The next? Arceus appears like a glitchy pop-up ad and says: “Alright, screw it. You get a redo. But I’m throwing you back ten years early, into a much harder version of the world, and giving you one spin of the Wheel of Fate. Don’t die. Again.” Cool. Great. Love that for me. Now I’m stuck growing up in Goldenrod City—yeah, with her, not Lyra—and everything’s different. Stronger Gym Leaders. Wild Pokémon that fight like they’ve read competitive Smogon threads. Legendary Pokémon that aren’t just strong—they’re divine. Oh, and the anime, manga, and games? All part of the same world now. And guess who’s stuck in the middle of that multiverse mess with a glowing arm and emotional damage? Yours truly. I don’t know if I should be grateful or terrified about what the Wheel gave me—probably both. I’ve got a partner that bites, a power I don’t understand, and let’s just say I’m not exactly lonely… but don’t ask. You’ll see. Eventually. Anyway, it’s fine. Totally fine. I’m definitely not spiraling. “Wait… oh Arceus no—the Hydreigon’s back.” ----- MC: Ethan Ship: Ethan X Harem This fanfic is inspired by the Fanfic Pokemon: Day Bringer, so a lot things from that Fanfic may come here, but be very different

My Casino Thief

The Casino Thief Alex Cinder steals to survive — tips, secrets, and on one reckless night, ninety thousand dollars in casino tokens to save his sister's life. He never expects to get caught. He definitely never expects to get caught by the casino's owner. Lawrence Grey has a problem of his own: a family fortune tied to a marriage he has no intention of meaning, and parents who won't take "I'll find someone" for an answer much longer. When he realizes the nervous thief who robbed him blind is exactly the leverage he needs, he makes Alex an offer he can't refuse — four years of marriage, in exchange for the crime disappearing. It's supposed to be a transaction. A performance for Law's parents, an escape hatch for Alex's debt, nothing more. Neither of them counts on falling in love along the way. But happiness has a way of catching attention it shouldn't, and Alex's recovering sister — starved for years of the connection she watches her brother find so easily — starts wanting something that was never hers to take. As her fixation deepens into something far more dangerous than a crush, Alex and Law are forced to confront how much they're willing to risk to protect what they've built, and what it costs all of them when wanting the wrong thing for too long finally breaks someone wide open. A slow-burn marriage of convenience with real teeth — about choosing each other on purpose, the families we build instead of the ones we're given, and what it takes to come back from the people we almost become.
