| 𝟏𝟐𝐱 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 | An ex-gamer enters a virtual reality ruled by a rebel AI in order to rescue her younger sister and shut down the death game.
                                                                      * * *
Eight years ago, Mori Fukutomi held the rank of number two player in the tactical hero shooter game SniperX. But fate and her parents had other plans and Mori now works as an accountant with her dreams of being a pro gamer long since buried.

Games like SniperX are old relics in the face of virtual reality tech and their latest gem, Facing Fear--a simulation designed to analyze the psyche of its players and adapt itself accordingly, creating a safe terrain for players to take risks and discover themselves.

Until FEAR, the AI governing the virtual world of Valor, decides the thing humanity fears most is death.

Despite the rising death toll and Facing Fear closing its doors, when Mori discovers her sister Shiori is trapped in the game, she does the unthinkable. She goes in after her. But she'll soon discover they're not the only ones desperate to make it out alive and there are worse things in Valor than the monsters.

There's more to FEAR than fear itself.

Seison't: How the VTuber Fuckfest did I end up here? (A PMC / VTuber Fanfic) by JosephShinano
3 parts Complete Mature
Once upon a time on a planet known as Earth, we can see someone in an apartment building in a place called Ohio, USA, rolling on his bed, thinking the trillion-dollar question: "Ugh, another day of boredom. Just how much do I need to do to entertain myself? THERE'S NOTHING INTERESTING HERE!" Joseph Shinano, a former PMC commander, decided to take up streaming after a series of unfortunate 'mishaps', involving his head, a .30-06 bullet, and a funny masked man in the Middle East. Due to his injuries sustained during his time with a PMC, he opted to be an independent VTuber, who would do things at his own speed and style after learning about the concept from an unlikely conversation. Despite a shaky start, he amassed an impressive subscriber count, enough to be widely considered one of, if not, THE most subscribed VTuber. Throughout his streaming career, he would face challenges, such as the stresses of streaming, fangirls who want to fantasize about him, surviving the challenges of VTubing, and learning that the industry is no friend to the concept of a normal life. Here lies the journey of Joseph "Yamashi" Shinano, the ex-PMC contractor turned the seison't VTuber of all time. "...sometimes, I wonder if joining was a great idea. Moreso, am I ready to lose my life for them all, and their smiles?" "...initiate Operation I.S.E." ======================================= I do not own any of the photos/videos used in this book unless explicitly stated (Duh...) - Hololive is its own entity - NijiSangi is its own entity - Other VTuber corpos/indies are their own entity - War Robots: Frontiers is owned by Pixonic - Roblox is owned by Roblox Corporations - SAS 4 is owned by NinjaKiwi Also, cover is a filler until I make a proper book cover. Until then, the badly drawn cover will make do. [NOTE]: THIS IS ON HOLD UNTIL MY FIRST FANFIC, COLLISIONS, IS FINISHED! SO STOP OWIFUCKSQWUUD
