    Sophia believed that being careful was enough. That saying no should mean something. She was wrong. This is the story of a young woman whose life unravels quietly-through ignored boundaries, unanswered fear, and a world that chooses silence over intervention. Viktor does not enter loudly. He arrives slowly, patiently, until escape no longer feels possible. This is not a love story. There is no rescue here. It is a story about power, coercion, and what happens when refusal is ignored often enough that it disappears. Some tragedies are not sudden. They are permitted. ⚠️ Content Warning This story includes themes of non-consensual acts(graphic), coercion, psychological control, and emotional trauma. Reader discretion is advised.

    "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.

    Story starts after treasure island arc. For as long as she could remember, (y/n) knew her family carried a secret-the ability to make things travel through mirrors. On the surface, she was the perfect student: intelligent and untouchable. But in truth, that version of her was something she had learned to become. And when she ended up in the world of Dr. Stone, she tried to change it-forcing herself to be more someone easier to approach than the person she used to be. Beneath it all, however, remained something heavier-choices she never spoke about, a past she kept buried, and a version of herself that understood how easily things could break. Then one night changed everything. After binge-watching Dr. Stone, her mirror distorted without command and she was went through. She wakes in a world that shouldn't exist beyond fiction-surrounded by a civilization rebuilt from stone, and standing face to face with Senku. He feels like a character she should already understand... yet something about him makes her feel seen in a way she isn't prepared for. Now trapped in a world she knows the outcome of, she must navigate science, survival, and the dangerous possibility that her past-and the identity she is trying to become-won't stay hidden for long.

    Jay has loved Sunghoon since high school - quietly, painfully, and without ever being chosen. Sunghoon's heart has always belonged to someone else. Someone Jay never tried to compete with. That someone trusted Jay more than anyone else. When circumstances force Jay and Sunghoon into an unexpected marriage, Jay agrees without hesitation - not because he believes he will be loved, but because he made a promise he never wants to break. Sunghoon believes this marriage is Jay's choice - that Jay wanted this, that Jay took away what he loved most. To Sunghoon, everything feels like Jay's fault. But Jay knows the truth is far more complicated. He is only keeping a promise. A promise made out of love, not hope. A relationship built on silence. A slow-burning journey where hatred softens, wounds reopen, and feelings change in ways neither of them expected. Because sometimes, loving someone more means choosing them... even when it hurts. Don't trust the description.
