Synopsis

Leave of Absence: I finally remembered to write this (collapses). I've mostly been going out and getting sick lately, so I haven't been able to write. Updates will resume after the National Day holiday. I really want to finish this soon... When Lu Mi transmigrated into the original story as a doomed background character, she felt nothing in particular. Whatever. Life would go on as usual. She was an ordinary person with no grand ambitions, and all she wanted was to enjoy a happy life without working 996. But the Lunarians were a sword of Damocles hanging over her head. Until she dealt with them, she would never know true peace. Content warnings: 1. As the title says, this story was born after the author read chapter 96 and completely lost it. Both the author and the protagonist are seriously upset. 2. The Lunarians, especially the prince, are treated very unkindly. The torture comes much later, though, and I don't know if I'll ever get that far. 3. The Adamantine × Antarcticite pairing will be broken up. 4. Reincarnation story. The protagonist is reborn as Ruby and will have a cheat. The protagonist has serious character flaws. 5. The main pairing is Ruby × Yellow Diamond. I love Big Brother and hope he gets a happy ending instead of going completely crazy like in the original. Theme: Break free from the cage and live boldly

Whatever I Dream About, I Add Here

I've read too much random stuff, so I'm saving a collection of fanfics I like

Level B

BG Fanfiction | 2 | Reading...

Includes no-romance stories. As a personal habit, I skip chapters if I cannot get into a book. Free novels automatically receive four or five stars; (1) is fully filled in, (2) is halfway filled.

Free Reads of All Kinds, Part 1

These are good reads. You could say this list is just for me, since I have no idea how to review books. I just recommend them.

Level A

Premium Fanfiction, Canon-Compliant and Free

Mostly underrated, serious stories with good writing. Every one of these feels worthy of five stars to me

My All-Time Favorites

Some stories I'll keep turning over in my mind forever. They're probably my personal number ones, and I'll add more whenever I think of them. Could include crossover fanfiction, DC/Marvel fanfiction, or original works.

A recommendation list. My preferences are basically twisted.

Anyway, Fanfiction and Original BG/GL (1)

Gintama, Jujutsu Kaisen, Harry Potter, Haikyuu!!, Blue Lock, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, Bungou Stray Dogs, and more. Lots of 1v1 romances. Free stories get no stars if they have major dealbreakers; paid stories with restrictions get four stars. List complete.

Paradise for Rereading

I've reread most of these at least twice. These are my personal favorites from the past nine years (which is no small feat for someone who often forgets the characters' names?)

Rare Heterosexual Pairing Fanfiction (Probably)

I hope the author will update.

Level B

Fanfiction

Some are popular, some obscure. Four stars means I found it so good I couldn't put it down; five stars are rare gems, especially within their respective franchises.

While completing tasks, I can also reminisce about the books I've read! Includes ancient-setting stories, comedy, and derivative works. Jinjiang wouldn't let me give five stars, so I entered it manually

My Picky Picks: Harem Stories with Everyone in Love with the Protagonist

A chaotic omnivore, mostly into BL, but I read BG and GB too. I have almost no content dealbreakers. If I think it's well written, I'll happily indulge it even if it's unfinished. If you have dealbreakers, please check for yourself.

Delicious Fanworks [Romance or No CP]

I’m into Jujutsu Kaisen, Hunter x Hunter, crossovers, and the like. My personal niche tastes include dark, twisted stuff and messed-up relationships, haha. I think I have pretty good taste, though these aren’t the big hits on the rankings.

Saving Free Multi-Fandom Fanfiction I've Read

My bookmarks are full! I've forgotten the plots of a lot of the older ones I read, but I can't bring myself to delete them. They might have some problems if I read them now, so I'll keep them here for nostalgia's sake.
