《Re: Pessimist》Side Story#1: Sophia's Disappearance
Advertisement
"Where am I?" Sophia asked, she had yet to realize that she was ripped out from reality because she was about to break the entire thing by revealing it was all a book. She had become aware of this surprisingly, almost as if it was just told to her miraculously.
"Who is speaking? I demand to know who is saying such words and how they were able to perform such a feat." Sophia was being rather ignorant for a Supreme Magical Intelligence, she was aware that the entire world she lived in was a book yet she for some reason didn't suspect the one person who was responsible for everything; the very creator of it all. She was in shock and awe at the realization that her very own creator had taken the liberty to do such a thing, to talk to her personally. Oh, who was she kidding? It's not like she had a choice in any of it.
"Why? Why rip me out of my own reality? Is it because of what I said about the world being a book?" It looked like she wasn't so stupid after all, realizing that she was ruining the entire story by pointing out that the entire thing was a book, just a construct of someone's imagination. What did she think would happen by telling them?
"What harm will telling them do?" Sophia failed to realize the most important thing; would the existential nihilist take the point openly-heartedly? Or would it end things far too quickly? It was her choice to make, whatever path lie ahead was of her own matter.
"Seriously? Ewan? That's the reason you don't want me to tell them? He wouldn't care, he doesn't care about anything. He'd probably do even more silly rubbish." Despite being made for her intelligence, Sophia was still proving incredibly idiotic; she had to have it spelt out for her.

With a story comes a path and choices to be made, every choice crafted out leads to another path and a choice after that and so on. Despite the illusion, they had no freedom, every path was crafted beforehand and as such there was no choice that they would make that would be of their own mind. If everything is already set and converges to the one ending of death. If everything is like so then life is meaningless if it is just a construct they follow, just like their death would be so. What would be the difference?
"All of this... even me? That can't be possible!" Sophia had finally known the answer, it was about time as well.
"Stop reading! The more you do so the more they will be trapped, the more I will be trapped. We exist only as you read, if you--" Silly girl, did she really think she had any freedom in what she could do?

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.

Silverscale Paradise (A Yandere Harem Adventure)
Warning: This story contains R18 content and depicts sexual acts. Hey there, Mark Gregory here! This is the story of how I got sucked into the world of a trashy Harem manga that only lasted 12 chapters. I read it while I was high the night before and only vaguely remember anything about it....so yeah. No foresight. Also, it appears I am a brokenly powerful character, possibly the secret end boss, that was hiding in plain sight the whole time. - That is to say, the "Quiet Prince" student in their class. My new name is Zeneff Silverscale...can you guess what I am? If you guessed overpowered godlike dragon, then you are correct! The problem is...I don't want to be evil...and I don't know enough about the story to follow along...so what do I do? The Answer: Whatever the Fuck I want. I will also be posting this story on Scribble Hub
