OJ's hotel has been absolutely BOOMING lately.
And that kind of success was... hard to manage, to say the least. Especially since OJ couldn't seem to find a good assistant to help out with things. He'd tried, sure, but all of them just... fell flat in one way or another.
So imagine his surprise when Steve Cobs, the CEO of Meeple Inc., offered to BUILD one for him.
Well... who was he to turn down the offer of a lifetime?

Shattered Glass [an Inanimate Insanity au]
Brain damage can drastically change a person. It can turn a kind, outgoing human being, into an rude, arrogant jerk. But can this happen to an artificial intelligence? Can a robot designed to be passive, get so damaged it develops violent tendencies? Mephone does his best to appease Cobs, but it seems his best is never enough. Everything he does brings nothing but disappointment. Usually the punishments for his mediocrity are relatively tame. But one day, in a drunk fit of rage, Cobs goes too far. And the result? Mephone finds himself battling overwhelming, violent desires he's never had before. Overtime they only become more and more irresistible. He struggles not to act on them, but he's only so strong.Complete

Taking Over | inanimate insanity x y/n
Cobs wants to take over the world. Typical. Hes already began part of his plan, but there is still one thing standing in his way, and that thing happens to be Mephone4, since he is his only disobedient creation who is aware of his plans. His plan is to create a robot that can teleport anything to anywhere. Emphasisd on the "anywhere" part. What happens when Cobs's robot malfunctions and instead sends randomly-chosen residents of Hotel OJ to the human realm? How will they stop Cobs once and for all? How will they return? Can they get back home? • • • this is my first fanfic so I apologize if it's not the best lol :)
The 10 Duel Commitments
**A twist on the Lee-Laurens duel in which John gets shot instead** Alex knew he wouldn't be able to sleep. Not that night, not for the next three nights. See, anytime he closed his eyes he could hear the bullet as it exploded from the barrel of the gun; see John as the color drained from his face, staggering backward trying everything he could to stay upright. He could feel his friend as he trembled in his arms, struggling to catch his breath; smell the pungent fumes of gun powder enveloping the two and taste his tears, feeling himself fall apart from the inside out. So keeping these things in mind, no, sleep, in fact, was not an option. **This beautiful cover was made by the amazing @KinziFace! Thank you so much!**Complete
(DISCONTINUED) Through her flame | Candle x Silver Spoon Fanfiction
object form | inanimate insanity invitational fanfic He wasn't supposed to feel this way. He wanted to win the prize for himself and only himself. He would distract himself with these unique challenges MePhone4 dared the rest for an undetermined reward. Despite these circumstances, his cold heart resides in a specific object, a purple candle. Love or Hate? Yes, he despised her very much, to the point he desired to eliminate her from the season, but his conscience says otherwise. This so-called " love " affects his mental stability as he tends to get lost in his thoughts, thinking about her warm and pure smile. Even so, this arrogant polished spoon is deeply confused if he should go for the prize or her award-winning demeanor. [ description ] _ [ author's note ]: I am not an experienced writer.

Always There, Never Theirs. (KinnPorsche ff)
Big had always known his place. Watching from the sidelines. Yearning for a love he knew would never be his. And sure, he told himself he was fine with it. (He wasn't. But he was coping. Shut up.) Then Porsche showed up; loud, reckless, glittering with chaos, and turned Big's entire world upside down. Big could've handled being ignored. He'd made peace with being second best. But being used by the two people he cherished most? Thrown into the spotlight not out of love, but out of convenience? Now Big doesn't know what to do with all this hurt. Or, retelling of KinnPorsche through Big's eyes but make it a omegaverse and polyamorous unhinged gay-fest Cross posted on ao3 under the same name.![Momento [Bakugo x Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/275936201-256-k260912.jpg)

So I was always told to look on the bright side. The bright side is that I'm finally meeting the Number One and Two pro-heroes Deku and Dynamight.
