    Villain as MC, Let's Discuss

    That's a good question because it asked where do we draw the line between being the victim manipulated and just accepting what we're doing even though we know it's evil. I think in the maid's case because she's under employ the Eldridge horror it's difficult to call her an accomplice since I...

    Villain as MC, Let's Discuss

    Villain as MC, Let's Discuss

    Should she return or not?

    I love how it's a given that random black haired girl will fight all the aliens. She a ninja or something? Although I'm assuming she's a high school student.

    Making Anime references in your novel

    I also go that route. Vague reference without dropping a name and leaving it generic enough so that a non-weeb can get that it's an anime reference.

    Making Anime references in your novel

    Whatever "Allusions" (which are what references in fiction to other works outside of the novel are called) you write, DATES YOUR WORK. Five years from now your cute reference will seem cringe as whatever anime you alluded too will have been long forgotten. This is the same for other forms of...

    How do you guys go about changing character names ? I want to rename some characters but i m torn .

    Any good gb yuri stories?

    Genderbend. Unicorn wants to read about guys turned into girls, who then date other girls. But I'm sure there's a lot of that on SH. I mean the GB tag is a main tag up here. :blob_reach: :blob_hmm_two:
