❝ Will you save the world or go to work? ❞
❝ It's the same thing to me. ❞
In a hidden continent where villains exist, crimes happen as often as it rains, but with superheroes to stop them before they get what they want, life couldn't get easier for the normal people.
In the midst of these places lies Falienn City, also known as the biggest flyover city in all Heromaica. Everyone is good and everything is in order. Villains don't ever go there so there's no need for superheroes to save the people. Life can't be more normal, and boring.
Aleena, who's tired of seeing superheroes only fly over their area thinks that it's time to change that cycle and does something that she never thought would be so big it'd call the attention of one of the biggest and baddest viallins of all.
And perhaps even the attention of their company's CEO, Cleo Porter.

Heroes at Heart
"I've tried telling them I'm only fifteen. That no sane government would force a boy my age to fight crime. 'But Max, you're a superhero! Isn't this what you want?' Actually, no. I just kind of want to get through high school. Then we'll talk about this 'superhero' business." Max Owens is your average high school sophomore. Well, he tries to be, at least. At fifteen, he's got more important things to do than fight the infamous Vinicus Cauldwell. With his single mother having recently lost her job, Max is determined to help his family get back up on its feet. The publicity and pressure that comes with being a superhero would be too much to handle right now. But it's hard to fly under the radar, when you can literally fly. Meanwhile, Vinicus Cauldwell enjoys the power he has as Murkbourne's most feared super-villain. For once, he can sit back and relax without being pestered by the police. That is, until Max arrives. Vinicus isn't happy about having to fight a child, but he can't let Max find out. After all, super-villains can't be "good people"... Can they? We can't all be born heroes. But most of us are Heroes at Heart. (Based on a writing prompt / story request by tumblr user "fallingivy")Complete
Hold Me Tight, For I Am Unlovely
Imagine this: you're a perfectly ordinary office worker, stuck in the usual cycle of emails, coffee breaks, and daydreams about living in a fictional world-when suddenly, you wake up after a disturbingly vivid memory of... well, dying. And if that's not strange enough, you find yourself in the body of your all-time favorite villainess from a third-rate novel you read to escape reality. That's exactly the predicament Natalia's found herself in. After her untimely death, she opens her eyes to discover she's now inhabiting none other than Leticia Medicci-the infamous villainess destined for a tragic end in her favorite light novel. A character who, despite being written off as a one-dimensional villain, always captivated her with a strange sort of charm. But now, facing a pre-written demise and with a deep knowledge of Leticia's world, Natalia realizes she has one advantage: she knows exactly how the story's supposed to go... and exactly what she needs to change if she wants to survive.
She Becomes A Passive Villainess-NOT!
Falling into the fiery hell she created must've been the perfect way for her to die. The other woman would then become the heroine that saved the town's people from the mad queen that burnt half of the population down and the duke would become the hero that protected the heroine. They would then be wed and have little children. They would live happily in the new world that they would create after vanquishing the evil queen. They would then lead the people unto a prosperous era of peace. Just... Where?... Where did I go wrong? When I am reborn, will you please give me a simple life?Complete

By Day and by Night
Through the darkness, the computer screen illuminated the pale skin of Adelae's face around the black mask. Scrolling through the submitted questions, she came across one that made her smile. "Dear Lady Shade," She read aloud to herself. "Why did you choose to be a villain instead of a hero?" She chuckled, shaking her head at the simple, loaded question, before selecting it and opening the page to write a reply. "Hello Blogger KittyStan41. I bet you're expecting the classic tragic backstory in response to this question." she typed. " Dead parents, treated like trash as a kid, and it all came to a choice between rising to defeat my inner demons or succumbing to them. Well, my real answer is possibly something you haven't considered about the world of Heroes and Villains. Answer this for me, what is the goal of a hero? To make the world a better place, perhaps? No, dear KittyStan41. The classic goals of the Hero might seem epic and noble, but in the end it all comes down to stopping the Villain. What kind of life is that, when your only goals derive from the actions of someone else? Your whole life is used up as a preventative measure. Now does that sound like a good way to live? "I chose to be a villain not because I enjoy hurting people, but because I have goals that I plan to achieve. Don't bother asking what they are. If I told you, everyone would know, and people (baby heroes) would get in the way. Then how would I achieve them? I aspire to more. Is there need for a better reason?"Complete

The Obsessive Villainess Vol. 1 ✔
"Don't touch that man." "Why not?" "He has a beast guarding him." I am that beast; Nora. I woke up as the villain of this book, destined to die after going crazy due to my love for the main lead. "I spent my last life wanting to die, and now that I've decided to survive, this world is after me?" No. I won't die such a pathetic death. I will survive this time. No matter what. But first, I need to survive these main leads. One won't leave me alone; the other keeps fighting with me; another is destined to kill me... Even my superpowers are so weak! Surviving in a world that hates me... Is kinda difficult. *** I got tired of reading about 'special' and 'pure-hearted' heroines so I decided to write about a character I could relate to. Writing gets better after first few chapters. [#1 Angst] [#1 Obsession] [#2 Yandere] [#1 Villain] [#1 Antagonist] [#1 Superpowers]Complete
