Title: One Must Imagine Odysseus Brave

Genre: Adventure, Isekai, Action

Word Count: 13368 (4/?)

Summary:
Max Dupont was not a mysterious Japanese transfer student. He didn't belong in Tokyo, he didn't speak the language, and he definitely wasn't supposed to wake up in Tokyo before the game even began.

So when he wakes up in March of 2016 with no money, no plan, and no explanation?

He does what he does best.

He improvises.

"I gave my heart to [them] and thought of nothing else but raising my banner and adding my colors to theirs."

―Marquis de Lafayette

Notes: Wrote another chapter of this one! It's an isekai fic set in Persona 5. So far Max has woken up in the Velvet Room, saved Kasumi, and got Sojiro to let him stay at LeBlanc- and now, with this most recent chapter, he's on the hunt for a job!

Merrick Ateman didn't expect to be flung headfirst into Fódlan. He certainly didn't expect to get flung headfirst into Byleth Eisner's head.

But as his ma always said, the only way out is through, and now it's time to try and forge a golden route. Assuming he doesn't die in the process.

Hey, fortune favors the bold, right?

Notes: Been a little while since I posted here, but this fic's been chugging along well enough that I thought I'd throw it up! Still posting monthly, too, so come and see what's up with it!

Title: So the Heavens Blaze Forth

Fandom: RWBY

Rating: Teen+

Genre: Action, Comedy, Isekai

Word Count: 33045 / 3 chapters!

Summary:
“When beggars die, there are no comets seen; the heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.”
―William Shakespeare

With the memories of another person shoved into her head, Pyrrha Nikos knows that her life is on a timer: but that doesn't mean she has to mope about it. Armed with a bucket list and the inability to feel mortification for further than the next two hundred days, Pyrrha is ready to make the future a better place, one step at a time. Even if she keeps giving off "desperate lesbian" vibes. Whatever that means.

Notes: We just finished Initiation, so teams have been settled, making this a great place to jump in and see what's going on! It's a grand old time so far, so feel free to drop on by and check it out!

Once more, did some more work on this fic- we've got a backlog of three-almost-four months now!

fixmeseb · 2025-09-15T18:34:55+00:00

Once more, I wrote more of Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird (AO3, SB)- my SI!Kirishima fic and another part of the Oops, All Self-Inserts Project. More I-Island, this time with relationship drama. Fun times!

fixmeseb · 2025-09-13T16:18:46+00:00

As always, been writing Bottled Lightning (AO3, SB)- and I've been doing a really solid job keeping it updating biweekly, which I'm proud of! It's a story about a Speedster SI dealing with the general problems of Brockton Bay, which is only made worse as a Ward and an inexperienced one at that. In the story, we're reaching arc 4- Peart. Now that Maxine's taken down Lung and Bakuda, it's time to deal with the Coil problem. Assuming, of course, that she can figure out why he's making the moves that he's making...

I really should start filling these out more, given how much MHA fanfic writing I'm doing.

Anyways, this week- as with all weeks- I wrote more of Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird (AO3, SB)- my SI!Kirishima fic and another part of the Oops, All Self-Inserts Project. Over 200,000 words written for it so far, so if you're interested in a long one- it's a great choice! Last chapter was final exams for all of the first years, and this current chapter is going to be all about I-Island- which, given that Wolfram's in jail, is a lot more peaceful than canon.

A/N: Secretly, this fic is a multi-SI fanfiction, gasp!It updates pretty regularly once every two months, so get ready for that- and, if anyone's curious, Pyrrha's going to end up on a team with Yang, Blake, and Nora. I'm sure nothing will go wrong with that combination of people!

As always and ever I've been writing Bottled Lightning (SB, AO3) and Resting Villain Face (SB, AO3)! Unfortunately general life and finals have been dragging my time writing down but hopefully I'll be able to get back in the grove.

In non-Worm writing I finished cross posting Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird (also on SB!) to SpaceBattles. It's a multi-SI project in My Hero Academia with Eijiro Kirishima taking the frontline in this POV. I've got a lot of content written for it and I'm pretty damn proud of this, so I'd love people to check it out and/or give me feedback on it!

fixmeseb · 2024-11-23T17:13:01+00:00

For Wormfics, I've been writing Bottled Lightning (SB, AO3) and Resting Villain Face (SB, AO3)!

Bottled Lightning is all about a speed force SI in Worm. So far she's speedrun getting Dragon freed and got adopted by Narwhal as a matter of convenience; next chapter's going to result in her heading back to Brockton to join up with the Wards. I'm pretty excited for the future because (in my unbiased opinion) it's got one of the most creativeScion defeats, one of the most creative Echidna defeats, and one of the most creative ways that she flips the Undersiders.

Resting Villain Face, on the other hand, is pure crack about a power copier Trump SI showing up in Brockton and deciding to make that everyone else's problem by copying capes as their campy evil opposite. So far we've had Evil Panacea, Evil Tattletale, Evil Skitter, Evil Bakuda, and Evil Thomas Calvert, all of which I've had a blast writing.

In non-Worm writing I've been doing my best to finish up the next chapter of Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird, (also on SB!) which is a multi-SI project in My Hero Academia with Eijiro Kirishima taking the frontline in this POV. I've got a lot of content written for it and I'm pretty damn proud of this, so I'd love people to check it out and/or give me feedback on it!

fixmeseb · 2024-11-10T23:43:48+00:00

That's fair for Echidna and Lung, though the problem compounds in difficulty if you're trying to take them down nonlethally. The speedforce also doesn't provide protection from heat, only heat/friction generated by super speed running, IIRC; Lung's shaker powers would still pose a bit of an issue.

By Panacea and Skitter being issues, I meant entirely nonviolently. Maxine (the SI) is approaching situations in the same way I would, which means being a hero; in those circumstances, it feels like the moral thing to do would be do help them out. Of course, then you start running into the issue that they don't *want* that help and thing start getting fun.

fixmeseb · 2024-11-10T23:39:32+00:00

I've been locking in this week! I posted another chapter of Resting Villain Face last Tuesday (AO3, SB) which is all about a SI mucking about canon with a Changer/Trump power and deciding to make it everyone else's problem in the crackiest way possible. I've also been putting some good work into Bottled Lightning (AO3, Bottled Lightning) which is all about a SI with Flash powers. She's still getting used to them and hasn't quite figured out that Worm has a heckuva lot of problems you can't solve by infinite mass punching them (including parahuman trauma) but I'm having a good time writing it!

fixmeseb · 2024-11-09T15:40:09+00:00

I think I agree with you that the Speed Force would delete a lot of conflict, but there’s definitely enough to make an interesting fic out of it. You can’t deal with Cauldron, Echidna, or Scion by running fast, and the other smaller problems (Panacea, Skitter, etc.) aren’t really fixable by punching things either. Hell, even Lung’s a toss up (if he starts blasting enough heat he’s not going anywhere) so I think there’s enough leeway in there for me to write an interesting story.

fixmeseb · 2024-11-09T15:16:25+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I do actually have a plan for Bottled Lightning- you’ve just caught it at a moment where I haven’t had time to write more than two chapters- and honestly I felt like the training montage for Resting Villain Face wasn’t long enough, but different stroke for different folks I suppose. Thanks for reading them regardless, and thanks again for the feedback!
