The Inphero.
A realm of violence and beauty, the only thing its residents have ever known. Much like Earth, only the strongest, wealthiest, and most cruel may ascend the societal hierarchy and claim success at the top. However, there exists a select few, a minuscule population, of those who reach the top, not for power, but to sustain a place for kindness and purity to blossom for those below the elites.
Unfortunately, you have fallen victim to this system.
Your wings clipped and feathers plucked, picked clean of all you have to offer, and shoved into a cage, used for your kindred heart.
And yet... You persist.
No matter how many times you have been crushed beneath the heel of those above you, your kindness allows you to earn the trust of many and slowly make your way back up the social ranks. In your eyes, everything can be achieved with unwavering persistence and hope... right?
Well, fear not, dear reader, for your moral character shall be tested and pushed to the limit as you are thrown into an unfamiliar world, where one inphernal will change your life forever. An arrogant but brilliant boxer who lives as a criminal, stealing from the rich to aid himself and the poor, meets you and finds himself questioning his understanding of kindness, compassion, and love- something he swore he would never feel. But you, dear reader, are an enigma, such a change of pace from all the other blood-lusted inphernals that inhabit this world... how could anyone not fall for you?
Despite this, you refuse to give up, running on sheer willpower, determination, and most importantly, hope, to survive this foreign world.
Because hope is a dangerous thing for someone like you to have- But you have it anyway.
This is a Coil (Phighting) x reader fic.
I'll cross-post this on AO3 once I get an email back from them😭✌️. Lana Del Rey will also be heavily referenced throughout this fic, as she's my biggest source of inspiration for writing and really anything in general lol. Enjoy!
