Basically past hacker 007n7 (before he finds that crusty red pill baby on his doorstep) gets magically teleported to forsaken!! Can you guess that all hell breaks loose? Idk the spectre was feeling dramatic today and wanted shenanigans.

It also might get really depressing emo at one point if I feel so. Can you tell this is my first fic? Also don't like how old owner of forsaken self projected onto 007n7 and me writing about him and lore does not mean I like past owners actions. Okay I'm dragging this on, have fun reading my silly story The art is my little to no effort drawing Writing chapters whenever I feel like it (I swear it will update, I will not just drop it) No specific times to get chapters out, depends on motivation and how busy I am. Could be within a day, or week 🥲

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips.
