Stepping Out of the Silence Sometimes the quietest lives hold the loudest storms. Elliot Van Doren hasn’t left his apartment in two years. Once a brilliant young entrepreneur, a tragic accident silenced the world outside his walls. Now his days are ruled by routine — work, solitude, and the ghosts of the parents he lost. With his best friend Noah as his only lifeline, Elliot survives by keeping the world at bay. Then Val arrives. His new neighbor is everything he isn’t — loud, impulsive, alive. Her laughter spills into the hallway like sunlight he can’t shut out. What begins as irritation turns to uneasy curiosity, and soon, Val’s presence stirs something Elliot thought he’d buried: the ache to live again. But healing is never a straight line. When one careless clash between them unravels the fragile calm Elliot has built, both must face what they’ve been running from — her fear of being unlovable, his fear of being seen. With the help of Noah and a patient therapist, Elliot begins to take his first steps back into a world that once broke him. *Stepping Out of the Silence* is a quiet, deeply human story about grief, connection, and the courage it takes to start again — one step, one word, one breath at a time.

Neva and Rhett—two young souls—find their heartstrings woven in love. But just as passion and peace begin to bloom, fate intervenes. Bleak, haunting circumstances scatter blades across their romance, threatening to tear them apart. Ishmael—a man with a heart of thorns—yearns to mend the wound of losing Neva. And in the end, rays of love and joy filter through the clouds of horror that darken his world—as Neva appears before him once more. Twisted fate entangles them all, revealing the Game of Sphere, as misery scorches their souls. A concealed life beyond turns its pages—one after another—gathering sin and virtue, tragedy and fortune, strength and frailty, creation, love... and hate. Illusion is where we live—in the garden of Eden before the fall of man. Illusion is serenity—an evermore sanguine of love. The vision of paradise in the New Earth sows hope deep in the soul. The delusory pleasures of this world ignite the flames that burn in oceans of fire. Illusive Eden is rapture. Illusive Eden is tragedy. The fall of man—even now bleeds red. The whisper whirls the dawn of a man—he who pretends to be the hero. --- The girl who once vowed to be his forever Now forbids him to ever appear. She refuses to recognize him, Disregarding all he ever was. He vows to protect her. Yet he is the terrifying truth she prays is a lie. He trips her, rips her apart— He's the living tragedy looming over her life. He once was her Elayne, now her hiraeth. He is the villain—pretending to be the hero. --- The Lord is the way— Steady through the wilderness. The King is the truth— Burning through the lies. The Father is the life— Breathing spirit into dust. She kneels before the Ruler, The God who shaped galaxies— He has called her a poet. Her tongue shall be anointed. Her poetry shall be the rivers of His word. She will scatter seeds in broken fields, And He will send the sun. He will send the rain. He will draw the roots down deep. He yields to the Ruler, The God of blazing holiness— He has called him a soldier. His fists shall be unclenched. The sword of the Spirit rests in his grip. He will shield the sower of the seeds, As storms rise against the harvest. His strength will be not his own, But drawn from the marrow of grace. This faith shall shake the mountains, For He has conquered the filth of the flesh. This flame will cleanse the shadows. For He has defeated the darkness. This love shall live on for eternity, For He has overcome the mortal world.

Just look at what I’ve done at school!” Professor McGonagall: “You mean the part where you used a hundred Imperius Curses per second to defeat an entire gathering of Death Eaters, and how you now run around with a group of Dementors that obey your every command?” Dylan: “No, I mean that there isn’t a single book in the library that I haven’t read! All my courses are maxed out, and so is my magic! Even Voldemort was defeated by me using an Unforgivable Curse.” Professor McGonagall: “Yes, exactly. Those cultists even want to crown you as the new Dark Lord because of that!” Dylan: “Oh heavens, Professor, isn’t that easy to solve? If I just fire one Avada Kedavra and wipe out all those Death Eaters, then no one will want to make me the Dark Lord anymore!”

In a stitched-together world of episodic American TV dramas, we are invited to step into the protagonist's shoes and rescue characters who were unceremoniously written off. The aim is to rationally amend the absurd plot twists concocted by capricious screenwriters. This includes, but is not limited to, shows such as The Rookie, Castle, and Hunter. Future additions may encompass Person of Interest, Knight Rider, Bones, and even various police-themed movies. Excluding the protagonist's "System", there are no supernatural elements. All cases and narratives serve the novel's storyline, with some creative modifications. Readers are advised not to take these changes too seriously. [Raw: 美利坚警探：从美剧菜鸟老警开始]

"This world is a tapestry of converging realities," Iris said. "And you, Master, are a thread that does not belong here." Valentine was just another exhausted engineering student reading webnovels on the metro—until he woke up inside one. Now he's Valentine Ashford, a side character in Convergent Realms, a world where alternate realities violently merge back into existence, spawning corruption and monsters that threaten civilization's survival. The main protagonist is destined to save the world. Valentine's ambition is simpler: explore everything the novel never showed him, master magic on his own terms, and stay far away from world-ending catastrophes. "Magic is a system," Valentine observed. "And every system has exploits." "And every exploit has a price," Iris replied. With Iris—an AI from his past life now bound to his soul—he's discovered a loophole that should not exist: perpetual mana regeneration through soul channel manipulation. Infinite casting. The kind of power that lets him act like a tourist and watch the world from the sidelines. "Master said to stay away from the main plot," Iris remarked as she captured and devoured another soul. "But fate does not care what side characters want." Posting schedule: Twice weekly on Wednesday and Saturday, with an additional chapter on Sunday if I manage to write more.

After the magical revolution in 1996, the Era of Mixed Species emerged, leading to the evolution of the new-generation population. From the currents of genetically variable magic, beings arose that did not conform to the traditional principles of magic, known as Anomalies. (Note from VV : To simplify this. It's the world where everyone has video games-like skills.) VV: Hi, dear readers! Just a quick heads-up before you dive in. This story is set in 2022—yes, our modern world—just, you know, with fantasy stuff mixed in so smoothly you’d think it’s been there forever. No dusty medieval candles, no ancient scrolls for the morning news. Cute, right? Anyway... the story follows Kenji Taro, a fourth-year exchange student fresh from London, navigating life at Starlight International School. Sounds normal enough, right? Well... let's just say the school has a few "Unusual" surprises up its sleeve more than Kenji could ever guess.

What do you think a guy should do if he gets inserted into the life of a smart but rather boring heiress of some random mid-tier company on the edge of collapse in an unknown world that developed pretty much like our wonderful Earth in so many ways? Well, the situation could be considered salvageable, after all I'm rather resourceful and don't quite mind the life of lesbian pursuits in honor of heterosexuality in previous life. But what if the world is an honest to god omegaverse from those trashy fanfictions I never once read but somehow still knew what it was?! The luck is on my side in only one way, this heiress just finishes high school this year, so I have time to... Well, read the story to find out, this is omegaverse, a bit of a crack-story with some spicy detail of course, but crack sometimes gets treated rather seriously. My little sister dared me to post it, so I decided to give it a try.
