Summary
In a world unseen by most, the doom or hope of humanity is shaped. The metaverse is where desires become power, and those few who find the world have the potential to shape the course of society.
Fourteen year old band student Ashley Davis is about to start high school, and finds herself wallowing in previous memories of rejection and betrayal. With nobody to confide in, she starts a journal, only to accidentally stumble upon this strange realm and awaken a power unlike anything she had imagined.
But power attracts enemies, and she and her new friends will soon find themselves facing off against not only the worst of humanity, but sinister beings of an otherworldly nature.Updates the first Saturday of every month.
Marked as both an original story and a Persona story because the story's premise is inspired by Persona 5 (and the Persona series in general). However, you do not have to be a Persona fan to read this, as all the characters and setting are new and the rules of the Persona universe are re-explained (and straight-up altered in a few places).
Note: This story should only be posted to Archive of our Own and Royal Road. If you find it anywhere else, please let me know.

Summary
Tenya Iida was in love.
He wasn’t sure when it began. Possibly somewhere in-between the first time he’d seen her, when he’d been unceremoniously dragged into what he’d thought was just a broom closet (only to find that that closet was not only much larger than he’d remembered, but also very much not a broom closet, but what he’d later discover to be an instrument capable of accomplishing the impossible) and the present, when, despite her being a variation of close he’d never dreamed of, she’d never been further away.
And now, standing on her doorstep, a bottle of vintage wine in one hand, he felt that distance sink into his stomach like a swallowed dumbbell.

Summary
Thousands of years into the future, Xie Lian decides that he and San Lang should take a small, casual, 60-year vacation to the mortal realm. Ghost City is lovely, but it’s nice to interact with the living every now and again.
However, settling into a quiet, well-off neighborhood in suburban Texas of all places doesn’t make life any less… chaotic. Feng Xin and Mu Qing are always fighting like an old married couple, Heaven continues fearing Xie Lian’s penchant for bad luck and misfortune, and somehow, even in the modern world, the occasional ghost still finds a way to cause a ruckus amongst the mortal realm.
Join Xie Lian and Hua Cheng as they battle a haunted hotel piano, the homophobic Homeowner’s Association, and their own inner demons. Get your weed whackers and lawn chairs ready, because in the suburbs, somehow the biggest problem isn’t the Chupacabra who’s been draining the blood of goats before the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
Written by someone who is proudly, unabashedly, Texan.

Summary
Twice a year, Stede’s father begrudgingly hands the black credit card to Bitsy. It always goes the same way. He holds out the card, and when she reaches for it he snatches it back. “Spend enough to make an impression, Bits. But not too much of an impression.” Bitsy smiles and says, “Of course, dear.” Then he hands over the card for real.
Stede hates that part, but it’s necessary to get to the part where he and Bitsy are driving up to the mall, listening to the Oldies station the whole way. The part where Stede passes up the promising smell of soft pretzels and cinnamon buns and opens the gleaming doors of Hornigold’s department store. He always holds the door for his mother. She always laughs and says, “What a gentleman!”
And inside — oh, the inside of Hornigold’s is something everyone should see at least once in their lives.
12-year-old Stede Bonnet meets a boy inside a clothing rack at Hornigold's department store in 1995.

Summary
In this suburban, non-modern AU, Zhongli lives in a small, religious town that has a small group of people who stand out.
Zhongli has fought his whole life to not be like those who stood out. That’s why he got married to a nice woman and why he even had children.
Yet a part of him could not stop but take a second glance the day he met one of those people, Venti.
(Best guess, this takes place somewhere between the 1900s, bc that’s around the time hair dye was invented and who’s Venti without the blue yk?? yk??)
