Amanita: Poison Shot by marsaumell

It's 2141. Clones have taken over as the dominant species. Using brain nanochips to surveil thoughts and actions, they have pushed traditional humans down to a status of low-class workers in a discriminatory dystopia. A nineteen-year-old aspiring mechanic and traditional human, Daphne, unwillingly leads a double life when Sigi, a rebel from the nightclub Amanita, hacks her nanochip and frees her from clone control. Since then, she becomes involved in a plot to dethrone the clones as the ruling elite. Daphne is caught between two pro-violence titans with twisted concepts of justice: Apollo, the Living God of clones, on one side and Agape, the rebels' leader, on the other. Daphne's ideals and pacifism are put to the test as she encounters good and evil on both sides. She abhors the rebels' blood-thirsty road to freedom, which only emulates the clones' violence during the Prevalence War. All in the name of justice. True peace, not rebels taking over and getting revenge, could end it all. But how? History and old mistakes will get repeated. Despite it all, some questions plague Daphne's mind: if true peace is possible, are criminals and tyrants worth listening to? Do they deserve peace? To be forgiven while uprooting the seeds of hatred so that history doesn't repeat itself? Daphne won't conform to the insurrectionary, perverse ideals of Agape and her allegedly justified acts of terrorism. But can she rise from a scared girl to an empowered game-changer? 🧬 🧬 ⚖ 🧬 🧬 A Sci-Fi story with a sprinkle of Romance and Mystery.

The Approximation by Scribblerofdreams

(COMPLETED) Men are of the inferior gender, or that is what people believe in The Free Republic of Women. And becuase men are less than human all men are slaves and women are the masters. And for perfect 18-year-old Otera that has always been her reality. Her only fault is that she's straight in a world where everyone is lesbian. But her solution is to hold it all in before her fault hurts herself and anyone around her. Until her sister is given the slave who will father her children. After meeting him Otera begins to question everything she knows. Battling not only against what society wants but also her own heart. "Everybody feels love,' I answered 'It's because we love, that's what makes us human."- Res ------------------------ "This story was incredible. There were so many twists and turns. You didn't know who to trust and who was right. It was impeccably written and I'm glad that I got the privilege to read it"@ sjm-marvel-music

The Horton Dilemma [ONC 2022] by psychedelish

Izzy Belvin, a famous genetic engineer, is about to blast off to the "final" frontier to join the second Martian Colony, where she'll continue creating nutrient-robust insects for farms that will feed the colony and increase its sustainability. For Izzy's remaining days on Earth, her psychopharmacologist best friend, Nakomi, begs her to complete a bucket list before leaving as a means of honoring their friendship. The first bucket list item: going to one of Portland's psychedelic centers together and taking Vivectica ™, a potent psychedelic drug (synthesized by none other than Nakomi) that has become a popular form psyche-therapy. Izzy reluctantly agrees, and when she encounters a hyper-intelligent reptilian entity on her trip, she can't convince herself that he wasn't real. The days are ticking down until her trip, but Izzy, becoming obsessed with the creature, can't get over her feelings that either 1) she's given herself drug-induced psychosis right before her journey to the red planet, or 2) there's something out there, something beyond space... This novel is a wacky trip with some sprinklings of HORTON HEARS A WHO and ANT-MAN, along with lots of palatable metaphysics. ***This is my entry for the 2022 Open Novella Contest.

The Typhon Project by MelindaFriesen

Radiation is decimating the human race. When the Earth's magnet field fails, only the best and brightest young people are selected for genetic modifications that will save them. Leah is among the few chosen to survive. But losing her family and the physical changes caused by the modifications leave her devastated--she hates looking in the mirror at the creature she's become. She's transported to The Farm to be with others of her kind, but when she sneaks from the compound one night, she meets a boy, a human boy, seemingly unaffected by the radiation, who reveals a wild conspiracy theory about the genetic modifications and the very nature of the magnet field failure. His theories could be tumor-induced paranoia. Or he could be telling the a truth.

(HAITUS) Well this Sucks (diabolik lovers x male oc) by NightOwlNeedsCoffee

Yasuda Haru was left at the church as a baby when his mother could no longer care for him. There he met his little sister, Yui, and the two of them became inseparable. When Haru came out as gay when he was 12, everything changed. The people who had previously cared for him grew cold, and Father Seiji turned downright hostile. His only comfort was his little sister, who stuck by his side, despite their "father's" attempts to draw her away again. When one day, he is loaded into a car with his little sister and a black-haired banshee, to be sent away to stay with some people he's never met before, Haru's life takes a turn. For better or worse, he isn't certain. I suck at descriptions. Just read! This is my first Fanfic on Wattpad. Constructive criticism welcome, hurtful comments unwelcome. CONTAINS BXB!!! DON'T LIKE, DON'T READ! Warnings: Will contain a lot of creative license, somewhat OCC characters, homophobia, swearing, slut shaming (don't worry, they deserve it), some smutty situations, more warnings to be added as the story progresses. Disclaimer: Diabolik Lovers belongs to its creators. I am also sorry if this fic sounds like anyone else's but honestly, we're writing fanfictions here, they're all going to sound similar.

A Time of Useful Consciousness by FriedrichCainer

Trapped on an endless Transatlantic flight and hunted across cabins an escape is sought; meanwhile on the ground the world is changing into something even more terrifying. A hard-sci novel of machine learning, politics and first contact gone wrong. ---- For anyone interested I wrote a post-mortem of sorts about writing this story: https://medium.com/@friedrichcainer/i-wrote-a-book-and-it-was-awful-dd592278e8df
