    Summary

    If there’s one word Kaveh could use to describe his life, it would be “ordinary”. Sure, the start of his life looks more like a sad drama movie with the death of his father, being abandoned by his mother, then being treated like luggage as he was passed from one relative to another. But he grew up, got a job working as a corporate slave, and became self-sufficient enough to pay his rent while not starving. Currently, his job is tedious, and the only joy in his life comes from spending his evenings at home alone, designing and building little houses in the game "My Little Aranara Friend", but things could be worse!

    It becomes worse in the blink of an eye. He dies. And not only is he forcefully transported into the world of "My Little Aranara Friend", but he's also stuck in the body of a mob monster called a Fungus where his only hope of getting a human body is by levelling up.

    ...And also by saving the Aranara from mass extinction caused by some malevolent mysterious dark power called "The Withering" that, if left unchecked, will also destroy the world.

    Fuck his life.

    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Summary

    Alhaitham wakes up with amnesia. The hows and whys of waking up with amnesia don’t seem to concern him as much as trying to figure out what the deal between him and his very attractive roommate is. Meanwhile, Kaveh has been saddled with an amnesiac roommate, many questions about how he ended up with an amnesiac roommate, and more than one love confession from the very same amnesiac roommate.

    For the sake of his sanity, he’ll ignore that third thing.

    Summary

    His body is a vessel, a tool for a god.
    His body weighs the scales; it's not meant for love.
    His body is not his own; he shares it with death.
    His body enacts justice till his dying breath.
    The story of Tighnari, Collei, Cyno, and the god that lives inside him.

    Summary

    “Oh, right – Alhaitham.” Kaveh claps a hand to his forehead. “Cyno, if you see him at the Akademiya tomorrow, don’t mention this to him, would you? I haven’t told him yet.”

    “Told him?” Cyno asks slowly, a wary glint in his eye. “What exactly haven’t you told him?”

    “That I’m getting married,” Kaveh grimaces. “I wanted to tell him myself – I suppose I do want him at the wedding after all, you know – but I didn’t get a chance yet. You know what it’s like, trying to have a conversation with him.”

     

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
    Kaveh is a single man. That's about it, really.

     

    or: the one in which Kaveh gets married, but not to whom you think.
