Final Fantasy VII: Code Radiant by rubia_ryu
Fandoms: Compilation of Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VII Remake (Video Game 2020), Final Fantasy VII (Video Game 1997)
29 Sep 2025

Summary
Ruby Liu is a hardcore FF7 fan who also freelances as a programmer. After one fateful night, she is forced to enter the world of her beloved game and finds a new world both familiar yet unfamiliar. Apparently her old fanfics have become Gaia's cancer, brought about by the wrath of an old resident Summon thought lost to time. And to top it all off, she's drawn the ire and intrigue of Sephiroth, who seeks new purpose for the realm lovingly dubbed the Debug Room and even bullies her as a de facto editor in this new story of Gaia.
But the Rulers of the Outer Realms are always watching. Order must be preserved, lest the ancient wars of cataclysm resurge.
(Rewrite of FF7 Original & Remake where game mechanics, sidequest lore, easter eggs, OG concept drafts, and even the game's code may be integrated into the plot. No major spoilers for FF7 Rebirth, only scattered references. The Ultimania Guide for this fic will come after this WIP is complete. Enjoy the cool logo art for now.)

Of the Hero's Journey: A short essay on the merits of Peter Jackson's Frodo as a Hero.. Or Heroine? by epiphany333
Fandoms: The Lord of the Rings - All Media Types
28 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
As a fan of PJ's trilogy as my entrypoint to all things Lord of The Rings, one of the aspects that have caught my attention the most since has been the difference in reception between Movie! Frodo and other characters of the cinematic adaptation. In particular because of how often his character is overlooked, or leveled complaints against under the notion of "having been watered down from the book." I don't intend to take those complaints at face value, and thus, I'm not responding to them, but the cultural context in which I believe they emerged. Therefore, my intent is to offer a shift in perspective, as well as more general, socially-oriented analysis, beyond the landscape of particular fandom disagreements and squabbles.
Welcome, my dear guests, to my hobbit hole as I elaborate in detail on Frodo's character in the movies, his reception, and the theoretical framework of Campbell's Heroic Journey and its limitations when it comes to analysing LOTR. Sigh. Yes, you can have some tea and explore the pantry. Be sure to get cozy for a short dissertation, whether you're Movie! Frodo fans, skeptics, or neutral on the whole matter. Let's begin!

The Games We Play by FoundUser, Primordial_Rebel_Jester
Fandoms: Deltarune (Video Game), Undertale (Video Game)
28 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
There are infinite opportunities in this world. Infinite opportunities for dreams. Infinite opportunities for hopes. Infinite opportunities for regrets... for loss.
There are some memories you would rather just forget...
The old royal scientist knew that better than anyone.
BRIGHT, BRIGHTER, YET BRIGHTER. SO YOU STILL SHINE ON, EVEN AFTER EVERYTHING YOU ENDURED. EVEN THROUGH THE COLDEST NIGHT.
But a story doesn't have to end the same way.
EXCELLENT. TRULY, EXCELLENT. LET US BEGIN THE CREATION OF OUR NEW FUTURE.
Sometimes... a game can have a secret ending.
(A Deltarune novelization that takes some unexpected turns from canon. Based on some theories, and a little bit of imagination, even the unknown can make itself known.)
(Custom Art and beta'd by Primordial_Rebel_Jester. Story by FoundUser.)

Summary
Shedletsky thought The God & The Virus was just a weird, tragic little novel.
Telamon, the cold god. 1x1x1x1, the son born from hatred.
But after one too many fried chicken drumsticks and an untimely death, he wakes up as Telamon himself—complete with a kid who despises him, enemies he doesn’t remember making, and a future that’s already written.
Only this time, Shedletsky refuses to play it the same way.

Summary
If on a winter’s night
a traveleran author chooses a TV series she abandoned midway a decade ago as canon, a character whose name she has to Google as protagonist, “Sherlock Is Jungian Shadow of Scotland Yard” as concept (abandoned midway too), and… naturally,manuscriptAI.Reader is not expected but arrives anyway—walks halfway, then disappears.
Reader returns with arrogance, shaped into a still-missed epilogue beneath the last published chapter.
Author deals with it.
The “completed” box is hit. -
Love and Deepspace: cops, superheroes, worldbuilding, and why a story can’t just be ‘vibes’ by thyrd_pardie
Fandoms: 恋与深空 | Love and Deepspace (Video Game)
28 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Abstract: Love and Deepspace entered the market in 2024, changing the landscape of otome games with its 3D models and hybrid gameplay. Despite its attempt at constructing a story catered towards women, though, they still seem to exhibit the pitfalls of any other company concerned with capital. Capitalism is anti-feminist.
This present essay thus dissects the presentation of Hunters as law enforcement, why the decision is so insidious, and what it means for the world-building. I examine the pervasive theme of crime and punishment and the unconscious biases of both the writers and the audience towards the criminal incitement to discourse, looking at the Tomorrow’s Catch-22 banner’s presentation of a racialised society and an unquestioned carceral system reminiscent of the CCP’s discriminatory policies.
The Love and Deepspace world is not concerned with itself, only what it can be for the central six characters. Plot holes are rife, antagonism is a spectacle, and Linkon society is a monolithic machine. Their politics revolve around which way the narrative can be bent into the shape needed to enhance the romance of the present couple, and the rest of the story is therefore lacking in any genuine care. -
I’ll Come Back For You by sarahwrites1234
Fandoms: Hunger Games Series - All Media Types, Hunger Games Trilogy - Suzanne Collins
27 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
During his interview leading up to the third quarter quell, Finnick Odair famously recited a love poem, written for his one true love. Or so we thought. This is a blog post, written a decade later by former rebel, Fulvia Cardew. She reflects on Finnick's poem and the deeper meaning behind it, which we all missed at the time.
When most think back to Finnick’s poem now — if indeed they ever do — they assume it was Annie for whom the poem was written. Certainly, she is the person whom Finnick was referring to when he said that there was only one person whom he loved. There’s one issue with this assumption, however — namely that the poem in question isn’t really a love poem at all.
Here is the poem in its entirety. Finnick never specified a title for it, but most publications refer to it either as “Secrets in the Dark” or “I’ll Come Back for You”. Personally, I prefer the latter.

Dragon Blaz(ing) 2: Tragedy In Blue by paradoxcloned, TGClmao
Fandoms: Deltarune (Video Game)
27 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
I uncovered a mysterious Dragon Blazers 2 ROM hack on an old, obscure forum. To help everyone get the full experience, I've decided to novelise it! Hopefully this makes my exploration make more sense!
Cel, resident college student and now begrudgingly a protagonist, gets heroism forced on them by the hand of fate. Stuck a world based on another's trauma, their real mission becomes clear: they've gotta get out of here.
This is a metafiction story; both about a non-existent creepypasta ROM hack, the changing tides of Deltarune's fate, and an author getting caught up in it.
Perhaps it means something. Perhaps it doesn't. But it exists, and that's what matters.

Summary
Keep playing the game. Others may seem friendly, but they’re your opponents. They will act kind, act scared, offer friendships, offer help, talk about love, talk about life, talk about death, make you doubt your abilities, make you doubt your reality, hold a trial without death, deny the game’s importance, question your very existence. But that’s all part of the strategy. No matter what happens, keep playing the game. And don’t mistake this place for heaven.
OR
Join Izuru and Tsumugi in their first year at Hope's Peak Academy! Follow along as they make friends, make enemies, fight the invisible war of Ultimate Hope and Ultimate Despair, and question the nature of reality itself. These are perfectly normal teenage activities, right?
