Story Of Dome by MrDerp1

This is a prequel to my other story known as Futuristic world (Furry x human). I HIGHLY recommend reading that story first before this one, otherwise this story will make zero sense at all. Also if you don't really like the first story, then you probably won't care about this one anyways. This story will follow Dome and his backstory before he met Y/N in Futuristic world. This way you can get to know Dome from my original story a little bit more. I do not own any of the art used in this story. credit goes to the original and talented artist. The art used for Dome (The protogen in the book cover) was created by GoldApollo. He has more protogen art, and I highly checking out some of his art. ________________________________________ Dome... He is a simple protogen with a sense of humor. He's a man with his own flaws, just like everyone else, but he has a weird way of seeing the positive of everything... Well... Not everything. Dome's bestie known as Conner lost his wife and reluctantly started taking therapy after Dome, the good friend that he is, forced him to. Conner makes small improvements overtime... Until one day where the downward spiral for both Conner and Dome begins. Conner loses his last bit of family left.. his daughter.. to a mysterious killer who manages to hide his trace. Conner, now seeking any kind of closure, loses his mind. Finally reaching a breaking point and blaming Dome for everything. Threatening to kill him for what he had done. Dome, despite feeling guilty, doesn't give up hope. He will do what the police couldn't, and find whoever killed the daughter of who used to be his best friend, but is now hunting him all around Night Glow City, and never stopping until Dome is dead. Dome has to get to the bottom of this murder mystery himself... But little does know what he will go through, or the other downward spiral that he will find himself going down afterward. _______________________________________

Y/N is a young, 16 year old kid. Their parents never got along very well, and Y/N would tune into Twitch streams or watch YouTube videos of their favorite MCYTs to drown out their parents fights, or to just pass the time. Y/N absolutely adored the Dream SMP and it's lore more than anything. However, Y/N was in a car accident with their parents, which resulted in their death, and Y/N's broken leg. Y/N was put into a foster system and bounced many homes within just a year. 27 homes to be exact. When Y/N was put into the foster system, their phone was shut off as nobody was able to pay for it anymore. This resulted in Y/N not being able to watch their comfort streamers anymore, which led Y/N into a depression-like state. Y/N's comfort streamers were the reason why Y/N hadn't took their own life. The people Y/N enjoyed watching the most was some people named Dream, Ranboo, Phil, Technoblade, and Wilbur Soot. Technoblade or Ranboo was probably their all-time favorite though. After all of this time, Y/N has mostly forgotten what all of the MCYTs look like, sound like, and even their names. One day, when Y/N is back in the place where all the kids wait to he fostered or adopted, two men walk in looking for a kid. No specific gender, race, or body type. Just a good kid. Y/N figures they're a lost cause since the staff kept telling the men how much of a 'rebellious little brat' they were, but then the men started talking with Y/N. Y/N feels like the two mens voices sound very familiar, but can't quiet place it. ~~~ !!!!!!!NO SHIPS!!!!!!! (Expect for DNF ☺️) Cover art by me! :D Y/N has no specific gender. Anybody can read this. Just read the they/them pronouns as your own pronouns <3 TW's// Death Car crash Abuse Foster care Depression Anxiety Self harm Eating disorder Angst Bullying Slurs (censored) etc. TW's will be above chapters ~~~ Enjoy! Or don't, I can't really make you :') ~~~ Started: September 6th, 2022 Finished: September 12th, 2022

In Your Eyes // Technoblade x Reader by bubbleblease

"I know what it's like to be used! ...and so do you. Stay with me, please." A story in which the reader becomes a Technoblade apologist. ===== Cover art credit: noelhijkm - Instagram victorempov - Twitter Highly suggest checking them out. Their fanart is amazing! Heyo! This story will somewhat follow the plotline of the DreamSMP. Not to a tea but will hit the major events. It begins during the elections and exile. However, y/n has been around since the first revolution. It'll be a little more realistic, but aspects of Minecraft are still implemented (plus one self made one ;;;). We're in for a long one. Happy reading! WARNINGS: blood, swearing, angst, and gore Status: Complete <3 NO SMUT!!! If anyone within the DSMP is uncomfortable or asks for this story to be taken down, it will.

Her family's decision to reunite and work through their issues brings Y/N back to the small town, where she'll finish her junior year alongside her siblings, Mike and Nancy. As Y/N navigates the familiar yet strange landscape of Hawkins High, she's faced with the challenges of rebuilding relationships, forming new connections, and possibly even discovering romance.

Join Y/N on her journey as she explores the intricacies of friendship, love, and self-discovery in the eerie and enchanting world of Hawkins. *Important Notes:* - This story is set in the Stranger Things universe created by the Duffer Brothers. While I have immense respect for their work, the original characters and storylines are their intellectual property. - Some events, characterizations, and plot points may deviate from the original series to serve the narrative of this story. - Strong language, mature themes, and occasional anachronisms (including modern songs) are included. - Please be aware that this story has a semi-slow pace, allowing for character development and atmospheric buildup. I hope you enjoy this Hawkins-inspired tale! *Story Details:* - Started: July 12, 2022 - Finished: August 4, 2022 - Revised and edited: February 8th, 2025
