Here you will find laughter.Here a quartermaster must discover why the humans insists that the mass produced broom, identical down to the molecule to every other broom on the base, is the "wrong" broom, and why and how they expect him to fix it.

SHUNOGAI by shunogai
13 parts Ongoing
Shunogai-A Story About Power, Chaos, and Four People Who Have No Business Surviving This Long. In a multiverse on the verge of collapse, where reality itself is glitching out like a laggy video game, four misfits ( besides one. ) somehow manage to not die...most of the time. Meet the Squad: • Shukan Ashikaga - The reluctant leader with chronal daggers, a tragic backstory™, and a talent for pissing off cosmic entities. Grins through the pain. Probably running on zero sleep. • Yurei - Red-haired ice queen with a missing arm that was perfectly replaced with ice. Always looks one inconvenience away from snapping. • Chronos - The walking doomsday clock who sees past, present, and future but still gets annoyed when people make dumb decisions. Stoic, but judges you silently. • Aetheron - A radiant, winged Shunogai who looks like a divine being but has the personality of a guy who would ask, "What if we ran off into the sunset in the collapsing void?" The Plot (Kinda): • The Void? Eating existence. • The Creators? Too busy flexing to help. • The Multiverse? Falling apart faster than your sleep schedule. • The Squad? Underpaid, overwhelmed, and somehow humanity's last hope. Join these absolute disasters as they fight against cosmic horrors, egomaniacal gods, and their own questionable decision-making. Expect time-breaking sword fights, ice-cold finishers, mind-melting reality shifts, and banter that would make even a divine being sigh. Shunogai: Because "godlike power" doesn't mean you know what you're doing.

Rewritten version of 'Fix it and Survive (Backrooms)' Cover art by meh :) The Backrooms is a liminal space, a hell for humanity, yet simply reality to the entities that dwell there. An unusual group, consisting of J, Smilie, R, Sar and Kiara venture throughout the backrooms, with a bunch of chaos to come. Where will their adventure head towards? **There will be some serious chapters, but also some wholesome and funny chapters featuring the characters hanging out with each other. Please go visit @Articalos, and see their beautiful art! I also used some of their characters, with their permission. &lt;3 Also @Articalos if you don't mind I'd love to add more of your characters if that's alright with you. Just text me on one of the chapters :) [!DISCLAIMER!] This story isn't canon to the backrooms, and may be inaccurate, and include a lot of head cannons. The events, story, and people in this fan fiction are all fictional. I do allow others to reference and or use my characters only with my permission. (Please don't use them for inappropriate things.) *This is a REWRITE, and this is a rewrite of the old version of this story, 'Fix it and Survive (Backrooms)'. Similar themes and characters will remain but simply be transformed, as new elements are incorporated. Chapters mays seem similar at the beginning, but the stories will end up being completely different. (I'm going to have to reread my entire story lol) =) / =( [!WARNING!] This story will include mature themes and may include some blood, gore, violence, threatening, blackmail, profanity, kidnapping, unhealthy dynamics, discrimination, mental health, etc. Viewer discretion is advised!

This is not an Apocalypse by 01Honeybadger
17 parts Ongoing Mature
The world is changing, two years ago strange weather, various anomalies and strange creatures started appearing from nowhere all over the world. Some creatures were completely alien and others were familiar looking as if they'd stepped from myth and legend. What many of these creatures had in common however was their aggressive nature and predatory instinct. Things that go bump in the night, that shifting shadow in the dark alley way, the cracking branch right behind you. Nightmarish creatures now stalk the land. Monsters. That isn't the only change in a new world however, humans have also changed. Some unknown phenomenon has granted humanity access to incredible power. The very elements themselves can now be wielded by those willing to risk the dangers. Earth, wind, fire, water, suddenly magic has become possible in a modern world and there are many who are eager to develop and embrace their newfound power and help protect their fellow man from monsters. There are also many who are willing to make a profit from newfound opportunities this changing world provides. Unfortunately for our MC Jack, embracing newfound power and going out to valiantly battle monsters isn't quite as simple as most other people have it. He possesses the rare and not so sought after lightning element, considered the weakest element for certain reasons, pitied and looked down upon Jack is determined to become a successful monster hunter in a more and more dangerous world. A slow burn story with world building, dungeon delving, character progression, Litrpg elements and more. WARNING - The MC is not a Mary Sue, he is not super competent, or super powerful or super intelligent nor a paragon of virtue, just a normal guy in a not so normal situation and him growing to deal with it in his own way.
