Snakes are only ever seen together if: (1) they want to mate (2) they are hibernating. Though, there is one other reason no one ever talks about: (3) they want to hunt and take down all prey, even if it's just for fun. NOT MANGA BASED! NETFLIX BASED!

When Kasumi finds herself in the borderlands after being in a bar with her colleague she never expected who she would turn into, some would say psycho? Others would say a hearts specialist. Niragi would say she was ethereal and he wanted her. She was playing a hearts game, with a man who specialised in diamonds, would this end well?

A normal trip to Japan was planned. Y/n should finally meet her boyfriend Yuma's parents. But immediately after they arrived in Tokyo, something weird happens. The city is empty and y/n is forced to take part in deadly games. This parallel world is a nightmare and y/n slowly but surely feels like it is changing. She allows herself to commit unforgivable acts and associates herself with dangerous people.

I had no choice in the matter Why would I? It's only the death of me

For 𝐘𝐔𝐙𝐔𝐊𝐈 𝐁𝐀𝐘𝐀, all worlds contain dangerous elements- though she might even be safer in the Borderlands; the laws she broke don't apply here. 𝐒𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐎̄ 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐘𝐀 knows about her actions all too well. He's not interested in redemption, yet something about her piques his curiosity. Perhaps the fact that her illegal activities affected him on a daily basis. Once they enter the Borderlands, they pretend not to know each other. But both of them are always keeping a sharp eye out. Waiting for the other to crack. Waiting, maybe, for the moment they lose a game. 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍 - a vision seen in sleep; a dream Chishiya x OC Alice In Borderland

Y/N and Niragi go to the same high school. Niragi is a nerdy boy, with no friends and the main target of constant bullying. Y/N on the contrary, has a lot of friends, but sees them frankly as puppets to combat the constant boredom she feels in that emotion-lacking mind of hers. They develop a friendship and y/n feels the need to protect Niragi, as she slowly, unconsciously starts to feel things for him, just like he did for her. After parting ways once they left high school, they slowly forget about each other, but still hold the precious memories they had. But suddenly, one day, many years later, they cross paths again, in an unexplainable universe, where they are forced to play deadly games in order to survive. **** people who are still willing to read this; i originally made it x reader but in the beginning you're going to find physical descriptions, i was confused when i was writing this story at the beginning so i'm sorry, feel free to ignore those **** Based off the Netflix live action & manga, with my own sub-plot 𝙃𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨: #1 𝙞𝙣 𝙟𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙣 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙛 1000+ 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 #1 𝘿𝙤𝙧𝙞 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙖 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙛 31 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 #1 𝙞𝙣 𝙣𝙞𝙧𝙖𝙜𝙞 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙛 238 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 #2 𝙟𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙣-𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙞𝙛 1000+ 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 #3 𝙞𝙣 𝙖𝙞𝙗 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙛 131 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨

CURRENTLY UNDERGOING MAJOR EDITING REVISED CHAPTERS: 2 "human relationships." he explained, a small chuckle leaving his throat, "i don't care about people's hearts. i don't want to know how people work or how they think. they're all selfish anyways." you didn't interrupt him, despite how you wanted to disagree. people weren't selfish, at least not everyone. and like chishiya had told you before, wasn't being selfish sometimes a good thing? shouldn't you be allowed to want certain things for yourself? once more your thoughts paused and the feather light touch of a hand against yours could be felt, not quite finding purchase but enough for you to feel that he was there. or maybe it was meant to reassure himself. his throat moved, perhaps his attempt to clear the tightness and arrange the words evidently playing on the tip of his tongue. "but then i met you. and it was weird. i had never been so interested in a human being before. and through time i found that..." he paused, glancing up for a brief moment before holding your fingers more securely, "you're the only heart i want to learn more about."

There is more than one side to every story. The labels of 'hero' and 'villain' become muddled depending on whose perspective the story is being told from. When Makina Aguni is transported to the Borderland alongside her older brother and his best friend, she has no idea what will soon unfold in her life. Aiding in the creation of the paradise known as The Beach, she watches at it destroys those she cares most about until all that is left is flames and nobody's hands are left unbloodied. * BOOK 1 of the 𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 series [ covers season 1 ]. ⁓⁓⁓⁓⁓ #1 in niragisuguru (14 March, 2025)🥇 #1 in aliceinborderland (10 May, 2025)🥇 #1 in aib (11 May, 2025)🥇 #1 in aguni (15 May, 2025)🥇 #1 in jdrama (27 May, 2025)🥇 #1 in niragi (24 June, 2025)🥇 #1 in canonxoc (25 September, 2025)🥇 #1 in niragixoc (26 November, 2025)🥇 ⁓⁓⁓⁓⁓ Completed wordcount*: 220,020 words!!
