Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Chapter One: The Obligatory Reincarnation Fairy is more Muscular than Expected
When I died, I expected there to be less fire. Some might think flames being my painful end was symbolic of what awaited me in certain Abrahamic religions based on my pornographic choices, but I'd...

[8 August, 1988]
"Wake up, sweetheart! It's time for school."
A pleasant voice from a woman echoed throughout the house. There were sounds of footsteps as a lady knocked on the door of the room.
*Knock* *Knock*
It was a small but cosy room full of bookshelves, a study desk and a comfy bed...

Chapter 1: Being a Pokémon Trainer Meant a lot

Chapter 1: Solstice
It all began with her death.
The orphanage's rusted bells tolled a mournful clang, a sound that tore through the village, sharp as broken glass. Aksel hardly flinched anymore, though the other children rushed toward the orphanage fence, eager for any glimpse of a passing...

The Wall, 281AC.
"Gods, curse this weather." Rhaegar hissed under his breath, keeping a tight grip on the reins of his horse as he and Arthur made their way to...
The world has been acting strange lately. Technology is evolving too fast, and anyone who can't keep up gets left behind. Maybe that's why I'm in this situation now. Maybe I was just another disposable pawn on this corporate chessboard.
"Prometheus, your thirty-day notice period is over. Since...
"Well, that was boring," a disinterested voice bemoaned from the emptiness of space, sounding as if two beings were speaking in tandem. Amidst the nothingness around, the faint light from stars glimmered in the distance. Yet, the voice remained; Cold and distant, yet still alive, like a spectre...
I come to lying on my side in what smells like a swamp, the damp earth pressing into my face. My limbs feel all wrong, too short and bent in ways they shouldn't be. The air is thick and damp, filled with the scent of wet leaves, dirt, and something acrid that stings my nose. Groaning, I try to...
Restarting From Level 1... As A Tiny Blonde Swordsman!?
Zenith - Throne of the Godking
The problem with reaching the top is that there's nothing left to climb. No mountains. No struggle. No weight pressing down, forcing me to push back. I thought that was godhood. I thought that was...
Coming to this particular city was a bad idea, one that she knew from the very beginning, but she did anyway because she thought it would make for the perfect smokescreen. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. Of course it didn’t. What made her think otherwise?
The night was halfway through and while it...
Five individuals. Five people who, in normal situations, wouldn't even know about each other. They were brought together; traveling through different worlds, growing in ways they couldn't have imagined.

1 - Heavy is the Crown
Fractures spread through the crystal surface of the hemispherical Vault like jagged veins, their threads branching across the ground and reaching the edges. The sharp, intermittent cracks grew more erratic with each heavy breath and clink of the plate armor worn...
Chapter 1: The Great Body Swap
It all started with an experiment gone wrong, a mishap involving a mysterious piece of tech Tony Stark had developed for some purpose that even he wasn't entirely sure of. It wasn't supposed to happen. In fact, it shouldn't have happened. But, as with most things...
So I recently got into DXD through the Light Novels and fics.
(I couldn't watch the anime. I tried and made it about halfway through the first episode before I had to stop because it was already a miracle I didn't cringe hard enough to snap my neck.)
Anyway, I like some aspects of the setting...
Threadmarks: Chapter 1: Where am I? But more importantly… Who am I?
In the midst of a tranquil, crystal-clear, light blue ocean, an isolated island could be seen. The island possessed an overwhelming beauty, almost like a priceless jewel hidden in the vastness of the sea, with its edges adorned by almost translucent white beaches, creating a beautiful contrast...
