Oz starts with a house landing on a witch, which is weirdly close to vehicular homicide, now that I think about it. Only it's happening to someone besides the protagonist as a result of their isekai, and that ends up being a big thing that drives the story forwards? So maybe kinda the opposite...

I think this may be because media is generally aiming for a younger audience than people dying of old age.

I feel like in older Isekai like Fushigi Yuugi, The Wizard of Oz, and The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe it was less... codified, how one crossed over? These days it feels like it's mostly variations on ways to die... maybe to imply it's a permanent thing unlike the older isekai, where people...

I'm just gonna quote Ira Glass again, cause he says it better than I do. “Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just...

Given how I currently act with my current non-super abilities, I imagine if I had powers that let me help people without dying or other severe risks, I'd absolutely use them if the right situation came up, maybe even put myself at risk if I really really needed to in the heat of the moment. But...

6+ Partially because lots of clocks would be symbolic of the passage of time something something death something something hell, but also because lots of clocks might give you a chance of waking up with an alarm, because I'm imagining with three heads the urge to let another head handle it when...

IMO: Dragons tend to be yandere towards their hoard, tsundere (at best) towards humanity, and kuudere (at best) towards kobolds. They don't tend to be dandere, since most dragons love to hear themselves talk, or deredere, because dragons, like cats, have a very high sense of performative...

Asexual isn't the same thing as aromantic, so I don't see why having two asexual characters neccessarily precludes romance.

Chairs that people with superpowers(not including you) last sat in before you are preternaturally uncomfortable... and you have this superpower in a world where all superpowers are terrible.

Omnipotence. Sure, it's not the most interesting power, but if you ever get bored of it, you could always downgrade yourself to any other powerset.

If you believe the AI art is an important part of your work, I'd include it?

Ah! My bad.

It shows up for me now, for whatever that's worth.

You seem competent at writing from your post. As long as you can get your ideas across, I think it's more important to start writing than to fully understand writing styles? Just do your best, look up things you aren't certain how to do, and be open to constructive criticism about your writing...

Okay, so I feel like you have a few conflicts and angles here already: 1. How he stands up for his values sounds like something he has to get used to? 2. How he relates to the values he's familiar with and has held vs his parent's values and the values of this world. 3. How he relates to his new...

My understanding is that liking a comment doesn't give any notice regardless of who you are, but you @ someone in a comment they'll see it, which is mostly used for replies?

I mean, I wouldn't advise using every angle mentioned here-- there's a bunch of different ways to make an OP MC interesting, and you don't need to use them all, and some of them actively conflict with each other to some extent. What's your story about, other than the MC being OP?

“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not...

I feel like a lot of people writing crafter dwarves always leave out the parts about the dwarves being super fucked up about crafting, and also people frequently treating them as a means to an ends to get cool stuff but not actually keeping their promises/treating them well/etc, which are the...
