Humanity's biggest enemy was itself. Somehow unsatisfied, we learned how to destroy ourselves, and in that same breath bring back the dead. Man's biggest enemy was himself and now reanimated corpses-as if it wasn't bad enough. -- A BTS apocalypse au by: © wethenaive TW: Death, violence, and tragedy

Have you ever wondered the origins of the wise, powerful, and occasionally lighthearted cosmic couple? The guardians of the universe. The adoptive parents of the Lumas. Here's their origins story. A story of friendship, family, happiness, expectations, and class divides. Which eventually spirals into crisis and dependence. Loss, pain, and depression. Even the threat of human extinction. But we all know how the story ultimately ends. Everyone's familiar with Mario, Luigi, and Peach. The Mushroom Kingdom lives on today, bustling with Toads. Though, there aren't many humans... I wonder why? (Rosalina, The Mushroom Kingdom, and all other Mario references are owned by Nintendo. I have no rights or ownership of any characters, locations, and power-ups except for my own.)

N. the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that's usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet: A school hallway in the evening, an unlit office on a weekend, vacant fairgrounds. An emotional afterimage that makes it seem not just empty but hyper-empty, with a total population in the negative, who are so conspicuously absent they glow like neon signs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a day like many when the alarming radio messages of the town blared alive, advising all residence to barricade themselves in their house away from unknown danger. But no new directives were given. And food is lacking. -------------------------------------- I HAVE NO MONEY!!! Stop offering me to draw me comics of my stuff, I cannot pay you... Tell me if it is free fanart because you want to draw my stuff and be included, if not that and money mentioned, I WILL mute you bc I ain't paying.

THE ISLAND OF SILENCE A deadly storm. A forbidden research facility. And a secret that was never meant to escape. Haneul Island is a quiet island off the coast of South Korea, where life has always been peaceful. But everything changes when a powerful storm cuts the island off from the outside world. On the northern side of the island stands Station 17, a mysterious research facility surrounded by warning signs and strict security. Nobody knows what happens inside. Until something goes wrong. Dr. Jonathan Carter knows the truth. A new experimental medicine called ECHO was supposed to change medicine forever. Instead, it has created something far more dangerous. People begin disappearing. Others return strangely changed, unable to recognize the people they once knew. With communication cut off and the island descending into chaos, seventeen-year-old Min-Jun and his younger sister Sora are forced to search for answers. But the deeper they go, the more terrifying the truth becomes. The outbreak wasn't an accident. Station 17 wasn't built for the reason everyone believed. And Haneul Island may not be the beginning of the nightmare... It may be only the first chapter. When the island goes silent, something else begins to speak. 🧟 THE ISLAND OF SILENCE Book One: ECHO

In this reimagined novelization of The Callisto Protocol, Rise of The Titan pushes beyond claustrophobic corridors and tactical skirmishes to something far darker-and far more tragic. Jacob Lee is no longer merely fighting for survival; he's transforming in ways that redefine humanity itself. As he confronts both outer foes and the monster within, the narrative unfurls across a grander canvas, delving into buried secrets, ancient powers, and the dire consequences of meddling with forces best left forgotten. The horror remains visceral, but it's now entwined with a slow-burn dread of identity, metamorphosis, and the terror of becoming something greater-and more horrifying-than any infection. While the original game grounds its story in corporate malfeasance and unethical experimentation, this reimagining ventures deeper. It weaves together conspiracy and bioweapon intrigue with the crushing psychological toll of wielding unimaginable power. Jacob isn't just exposing the truth-he's becoming something else entirely, and that shift carries a weight no man should bear. Bonds fray, motives turn deeply personal, and the struggle evolves from mere survival into a fight for purpose. Ultimately, Rise of The Titan honors the grim heart of The Callisto Protocol while elevating it into a cosmic horror saga-one where the real nightmare isn't just what lurks beyond the prison walls, but the monstrous force awakening inside.
