[Honkai: Star Rail] If You Want Someone, Go Get Them!

In short, you transmigrated.

There was no cause or consequence, and it came completely out of the blue, but anyway.

You transmigrated, and happened to end up in some high-tech place you couldn't understand at all. You even worried that aliens had abducted you while you slept and dragged you onto a high-tech spaceship, where they were about to take you apart and study how you were put together.

Fortunately, just as your worries were about to spiral into wondering whether you should bash your head in and at least leave yourself some room to maneuver

"Huh? Are there any staff members who haven't been evacuated from this place?"

"...You can tell from her clothes that she's definitely not a staff member here."

Two very different voices, one after the other, interrupted your wild imaginings and, while they were at it... opened a new door for you.

A new door to knowledge.

When you and Stelle, who had also inexplicably woken up in this place, boarded the colossal vessel known as the Astral Express, you had a feeling: this journey was probably going to be far more perilous than you'd imagined.

But you never thought it could get this dangerous!

What do you mean, "We treated you courteously, but you're wanted criminals now"? What do you mean, "We were just about to head to Penacony, but now we're changing course for the Xianzhou Luofu"? What do you mean, "The Luofu is incredibly powerful, but it's in the middle of a crisis and needs your help"?

Does any of that sound reasonable to you?

But you really can't just leave them to it. That's simply because all the friends you know are just as warmhearted and ready to help others.

Ha ha.

Now that things have come to this, all you can do is

"Go through fire and water for a friend!"

"Wait, what do you mean we're all going to fight General Feixiao???"

Reader's notes:

1. The main story is told in the second person, though the perspective sometimes shifts. When it does, characters will be referred to by other names. If an entire chapter is narrated in the third person, it's because the scene is so large in scope that it needs multiple plotlines. Since the story starts in the second person, many clues aren't explicitly identified. A later special chapter, [Black Box], might explain them... or it might not.

2. The main story is an all-ships story with no secondary pairings. The protagonist is the main character, so let's give her the good stuff. The main story doesn't make anything explicit, so read whatever you like. Romance arrows incoming from every direction!

*Note: Although the protagonist sometimes says things that aren't very serious, there really are no secondary couples in this story! She just speaks without thinking and likes to tease people. This usually happens when she's getting a bit emotional, so don't mistake it for a ship!

3. I started writing on a whim, just because I got back into the fandom and felt like I should write something... I probably won't abandon it. If I do fall out of the fandom, I'll write at least 30,000 words and four chapters before I go. After that, I'll still post story updates from time to time. It's mainly because of the pressure from school... It's hard to keep going.

4. The plot doesn't necessarily follow the main story, and there will be lots of foreshadowing. So if some things don't line up, some of it is my own setting, and some of it... really just doesn't line up. Don't overthink it.

5. I'd love comments! Let's keep things friendly! If I get an interesting and fairly long comment, I might consider adding an extra chapter! For now, I'm thinking of updating once a week or every other week, with each update being at least around 4,000 words.

6. This is somewhat related to my Zenless Zone Zero story next door (the protagonists actually share a name! Some clues are mixed in). Reading both stories together might make for a better experience~ It's also somewhat related to FGO.

7. I revise the story from time to time. It's normal to see it under review!

8. At present, chapters titled [Episode X] are part of the main story, which has reached the Luofu. Unless something unexpected happens, they'll follow the original story's plot. The upcoming [Trailblazing Horizons] is the same kind of feature as the early-access content in the original. This update's [Trailblazing Horizons] is a Fate/stay night crossover, but a lot of it will be changed. It follows the plan mentioned in the author's notes after Chapter Six, so read at your own discretion~ It will feature some FGO characters. I'll work out the details after I finish the crossover... So please look forward to it!
