Not Quite Star Trek

A Man rides an experimental space ship engine that pushes him close to the speed of light, knowing he'll miss out on two hundred years before he returns to normal time. Turns out they invented warp drive like a week later, but he had become too valuable as a tourist attraction to pull him out of near light speed travel, so they just... didn't stop him until the ship stopped itself. He finds the future he arrives in not at all to his liking, so he goes for another round... and another... and another. Will he ever find the star trek future he's looking for? Or will he just meet strange new alien races, and try to bang them.

SideKick | Shit Hero

Working is hard. Being a hero too. Doing both at the same time, for half the pay, is hell. Every day, Arthur wakes up early to sweep the filthy streets of Lumière in exchange for a pittance, zero recognition, and a terrible smell that seeps through his clothes and clings to his body. But when monsters appear and the city needs someone, he’s the one who steps up. Not to defeat them, of course, but because, apparently, no one else wants to clean up the mess that the real heroes leave behind. At the end of the day, his only consolation is heading to the corner diner, where the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen works. There, between a hot sandwich and a shy smile, Arthur almost forgets that he’s the lowest-paid (and most ridiculous) hero in Lumière. What kind of shit hero is this? A.N.: A short story set in the cyberpunk heroes universe of higgscrowl (Radiant).

Shell: Tower Climbing in a Monster's Body

The Zenith erupted from the earth—monsters, demons, and alien horrors pouring out of a million Towers, wiping out half of humanity in a single year. My parents vanished in the chaos. I didn't. When the survivors finally got the power to fight back, they got fireballs, blades of light, and heroic bloodlines. I got a corpse. [SYSTEM NOTICE] Ability Unlocked: Carcass Possession No spells. No weapons. My class lets me climb inside the bodies of the monsters I kill and wear their skin — their strength, their claws, their nightmares — like armor. Everyone who saw it called it a trash roll. A joke of a class for a kid who'd never survive his first Tower. They were wrong. The Zenith reached the peak of evolution before they broke the world. Now every corpse I leave behind is a weapon I get to keep. I'm going to climb their Towers, wear their bodies, and take back everything they took from me — one stolen shell at a time. What to Expect: ⚔ Unique LitRPG system — no mana, no magic, just Carcass Possession 🦴 Stats, tiers, and a growing "Vessel Library" of monster bodies to wear 🏙 Grim, grounded post-apocalyptic setting — Grey District, guild politics, black markets 🤝 Alliance-building over chosen-one power fantasy — trust is earned, not given 📈 Slow-burn progression that rewards patience, precision, and clever tactics over raw stats 🐜 Body-horror flavored transformation — possession has a cost, and it isn't clean 👁 A mysterious, ancient rival who's been doing this far longer than the MC has 📅 Upload Schedule: 2 Chapters Daily at 9:00 AM & 7:00 PM EDT (3:00 PM & 1:00 AM CEST).
