"They built up all these lies like glass houses, too dangerous to move around in, but at least that house kept me warm at night. Now I lay in bed shivering with fear of the very people that claimed to protect me, to protect us all. The windows in that glass house may have been nothing more than elaborate paintings, but they were beautiful, beautiful pictures. Now that the glass house is shattered, I stand shivering in the night air, covered in cuts from the falling glass. I am looking at the real world, and I have realized, though it hurts to admit, that this world is nothing more than a wasteland, ruined, destroyed by its inhabitants."
Hey look I wrote a thing :)
This story basically takes place in the future, but not that far from now, around 50 or 60 years ahead, I'm sorry I suck at summaries, just read the story. Also, my chapter titles are really bad, I apologise in advance.

The Lifeless Beauty of Gracefield [ray x f! reader]
Nothing matters to her anymore. Nothing makes her cry anymore. Nothing makes her laugh anymore. Nothing makes her feel anymore. Ray can do nothing but wonder questions only about her. Think thoughts only about her. Do things only for her. Ray has complicated feelings. [y/n] has none. She knows the truth. But what else? ____________________________________________________________________ This story is following the anime, not the manga. Though the ending in the anime did suck, this story is going to follow along the anime plot. I do not own The Promised Neverland, i just own is this story. I hope you enjoy this fanfic. The cover is mine so please do not take. Proud Zone #1 Ray [11 May, 2021] #1 rayxreader [11 May, 2021] #1 Emma [i forgot the time] #3 Norman [2 Sep, 2021] #3 tpn [2 Sep, 2022]Complete
Uneasy Comfort.
So um this story may be on hold as I have lost interest and have no idea how to continue the story... . (Disclaimer, there is NO smut/inappropriate things, just cute and wholesome~β‘ but warning, there may be some dark themes throughout.) . . This story is basically a sonic the hedghog fanfic. It's set in a dystopian reality. im still figuring out everyone's stories even the main plot. But I just go along as my mind pleases. The main 'object' that stirs this story is a plant, named the agony night floret, that infects living things. It was created accidentally in a facility by money hungry mobian scientists and main boss, scarlett the fox. she is the main 'villian', surprsingly not eggman lol. the agony night floret infects mobians, putting them in these stages. first a purple blue rash, then disconfiguration then having the chance to rott and turn into creepy lifeless zombie ish creatures, not hostile but really contagious. They roam around isolated areas. Or, they have the small chance by transforming into these cannibalistic 'flesh-gorgers', coming in different types, 3-4 times bigger than hosts/Mobians size. sonic and his friends travel firstly through the thick, white, winter forests, named 'Nobelwoods' in Nahada, trying to find the facility of where it all happened, while unexpectedly coming across a familiar haze of a huge mossy concrete structure of shadows old-old home. Burnt. It will be told why in the story. I have posted drawings of the characters/unfamiliar characters to understand better of what their appearances looks. thankz for reading this far if u have :) (I'm rambling abt the lore lol) . . . . Cover art drawn by myself :)
The Hourglass
She fought, but in the end her heart won out and because she could not kill him, she simply trapped him. Forever. ____________________________________ I ran through the woods. The trees seemed to bend towards me. The farther I went, the darker the world seemed to get. The color also seemed to dim as I ran. But I didn't pay much attention to that. I finally came to a large clearing, near the center was an hourglass, it was made out of diamond. I walked up to it. It was so thick I could barley see inside, although I did see something inside. I reached out and touched the diamond, it seemed to melt away leaving glass. I then spotted a man about my age throwing fire at the walls. I screamed. Then I woke up. It was just a dream, right?Complete![[Promise Me] Ray x Female Reader](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/259926055-256-k152864.jpg)
[Promise Me] Ray x Female Reader
"Hey guys... what is this?" the small orange haired girl named Emma said. Her small hands gripped on the cold bars. "A gate. It connects the inside and outside." The small black haired boy named Ray answered. "Outside? We've never been outside..." "That's because we haven't left here since being born." The small white haired boy named Norman said. "So is this what Mom always tells us about?" Emma smiled. "Never go near the Gate of Fence in the back of the forest cause it's dangerous.'" "Hmm...I don't see anything dangerous there." the small girl named (Y/N) said with her eyebrows furrowed. "She says that but it's not true." Ray says looking down. Norman looks at Ray. "It's not?" "Hey Ray! What would you do outside?" Emma happily asked. (Y/N) looked at Emma to Ray. "I don't know. You, Emma?" "I'd ride a giraffe!" "Good luck." Ray turned away, sarcastically. "And you, (Y/N)?" Emma asked (Y/N), happily. (Y/N) thought about it for a moment. "I want us four to be together and spend the rest of our lives outside!" Emma's smile stretched widely and giggled. "Yeah and that too!" "This gate..." Norman touched and grabbed the cold bar with his both hands in front of him. "You know...I wonder what is really keeping us protected from." ---------------------------------------------------- This my first fan fiction book of The Promise Neverland anime with female reader inserted. This contains spoilers for whoever didn't watch the whole first season of the anime. Hope you enjoy reading this book I've written. The cover is mine by the way.

I have sat often in front of the computer, and stared long at the screen without ever writing a word. The synopsis for this project has haunted me since the first person asked me "So, what is it about?", and to this day I have never been able to deliver a straight answer. This book is about a number of things, many of which do not fit evenly into a succinct description. I have tried to make them fit and have found the resulting descriptions ill-representing and dull. Thus, I have decided to go without a description. This book will fade into obscurity no matter what I put here, so I might as well write what's really important. Winter in a city is an especially punishing time. This book comes out of my late nights and early mornings riding the train, and my looking at the window and being able to make out nothing but the blur of the glass. From the outside it may look dead, but certain people know that the inner workings of a city are a true marvel to behold. In writing this, I have tried to capture that marvel and deliver it to you, the reader. This is a book about a city and the people within it. The rest is up for you to read, if you so choose. Pyre lives on whether you experience it or not. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A science-fiction novel, updated whenever there is new material to post. The last cover was AI generated, so I spent some time making a crude cover of my own. For the sake of Wattpad I have divided up the chapters into parts, so everything under "The Glow" is Chapter 1 and so on. If you have read this far into the description, I thank you; you've made it further than mostly everyone before you. I hope you stick around. β β
