Orion Hallow lives his life in the quiet margins, hidden away in a Brooklyn bookstore that doubles as a sanctuary. To the few who know him, he's a shy, soft-spoken kid who'd rather get lost in his mind than hold a conversation. But when he picks up a guitar, a different soul emerges-one with a voice that carries the weight of a sorrow and a talent far beyond his years. His carefully constructed world is built on one rule: let the music out, but never let the world in. That world, however, comes knocking when unwanted fame and certain actress stumbles into his gig and hears something breathtakingly real. As the fame begins to flow, so do the whispers-that his impossible voice sounds hauntingly familiar, an echo of a legend. When the world starts demanding to know his name, can a boy who only knows how to whisper survive the roar? ⚠️SLOW UPDATES⚠️ [SADIE SINK X MALE OC] [SLOW-BURN] started: 6/28/2025 finished: . . .

DESCRIPTION: "I really want to go home" It was the only birthday wish you ever made... The only thing you ever wanted. Six birthdays spent alone. Six cakes you never got to eat. Six years of pretending that maybe next year will be the year your wish actually came true. But as the years pass, one day, you realized you couldn't even remember what home smelled like... You've forgotten how your mother's laugh sounded like... And soon after... You even began to forget the faces of your brother and sister. You clung to those memories with everything you had... But no matter what you did... They still began to fade from your memories. Everyday you'd forget something important... Something you swore you would never forget... But they'd still fade, until one day... They're all but a fleeting memory in your underdeveloped mind. And if they were to fade... If you were to forget memories of home... Then is there really a home to get back to anymore? That thought frightened you even more than being stranded in an unknown world. So when fate finally offered you a way back... You accepted without hesitation. Even if the world would come to fear your name... Even if history would remember you... As the villain. . . . 🏆 Best rankings 🏆 #1 in Hawkmoth 7/23/2026 #1 in Miraculous Ladybug 8/22/2026

"You are the next in line to entertain me, fortunate mortal. Do try your best, and give me your greatest dance. A dance worth watching." All it takes is the blink of an eye for Y/N L/N to disappear from the modern world we all know and (don't) love. He finds himself in a fantasy world of everyone's dreams, and instantly gets to work on making a suitable life for himself. However, everything goes wrong when, at the end of the day, he's strangely sent back in time, and given worrying instructions. "The arrival of danger within an alleyway causes a call. The loot house receives he who is called once negotiations become violent. Two out of three lives- do try to prevent that number from reaching zero, otherwise I fear you might find yourself regretting it deeply." Now thrown into a confusing and dangerous situation, Y/N must use his cunningness to somehow prevent a certain person from dying too many times, lest he suffers the dire consequences... I don't own Re:Zero or any of the characters, credit goes to the original creators. Special thank you to GhostIXVI for making the book cover for me (and sorta promoting me to a certain voice actor for Re:Zero, this guy is a mad man), you're the goat. And a special thank you to you for at least reading this description. Enjoy the show.

Y/N is an average person who just wants to focus on his job without any distractions, even though the money he earns from his current job isn't enough. So, he needs to find a suitable job that pays well. The only problem is, he doesn't know where he's going to live. Luckily, his mother suggests an apartment complex where she used to live. She tells him that it's affordable and offers shared rooms. She also mentions that she made friends while living there and hopes that Y/N can make friends too, since he hasn't had any friends since childhood. However, Y/N doesn't like the idea of sharing a room with others because he thinks it will only bring unnecessary problems. But he can't argue with his mother because he cares about her and wants to make her happy. So, he reluctantly accepts her suggestion for her sake.

And neither understands why the other brings out such strong reactions. But when good intentions collide with wounded pride, their carefully constructed worlds begin to crumble. Some secrets destroy trust. Some lies are meant to help. And sometimes, the person you're trying to save is the last person who wants your rescue.
