MY DELULU

Mira is a lively and free-spirited young woman from India who finds happiness in simple things—music, dancing in her room, writing in her diary, and enjoying life with her own unique imagination. Unlike many people around her, she never understood why people became emotionally attached to celebrities or fictional characters. To her, those feelings always seemed unrealistic. Her life follows a simple rhythm until one day she accidentally discovers the music of a Korean rapper whose lyrics speak about loneliness, dreams, self-doubt, and hope. His words feel surprisingly real and sincere. Instead of sounding like a distant celebrity, his music feels like someone quietly understanding emotions she herself never spoke aloud. Curious at first, Mira begins listening to more of his songs. Slowly, what begins as casual curiosity turns into admiration. His thoughtful personality, intelligence, and comforting presence through music make Mira feel a strange sense of emotional connection. She begins reading interviews, watching performances, and understanding the person behind the music. For the first time in her life, Mira experiences what others call a “fan connection.” But for her, it feels deeper than that. In moments when she feels confused or lonely, his music feels like a silent conversation. His words begin to influence the way she sees life, dreams, and herself. Mira starts writing about these emotions in her diary. Her imagination slowly creates small conversations and moments where she feels as if she can talk to him freely—moments where she can share her thoughts, fears, and dreams without being judged. These imaginary moments bring her comfort, inspiration, and courage. However, Mira is also aware that this connection exists only in her world. She calls it her “delulu world”—a place where imagination and feelings mix together. While others might call it unrealistic, for Mira it becomes a space where she understands herself better. Through this emotional journey, Mira learns important lessons about self-love, dreams, and the power of music to heal hearts. The story explores how sometimes a person we have never met can still inspire us to grow, become stronger, and see life differently. “MY DELULU” is a heartfelt story about imagination, admiration, and the emotional comfort people can find in music and inspiration. It shows that sometimes the line between fantasy and reality is not about believing something impossible, but about discovering parts of ourselves we never understood before.

When the Female Protagonist of an Ancient Romance Novel Transmigrate

Jiang Jiang is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhen’s household and the emperor’s personally appointed future Crown Princess. Later, she transmigrates into a book—a yuri novel—and becomes the fiancée of the older sister of the main female lead. It is said that their engagement was arranged only to fulfill her grandmother’s dying wish. In truth, the two women have no romantic feelings for each other. When Jiang Jiang meets her fiancée for the first time, the woman looks at her with an indifferent expression, impatience faintly hidden in her eyes. “I will marry you, but I will never love you.” Jiang Jiang obediently nods. She is familiar with this kind of arrangement. How many marriages between noble families are truly about love? She did not love the Crown Prince either, yet she still became Crown Princess. Ji Xu’an looks at her suspiciously, unconvinced by her meekness. — Later, Ji Xu’an realizes that Jiang Jiang is not disobedient at all—she is obedient to an excessive degree. At a hotel, a female celebrity slips into Ji Xu’an’s room. The Jiang Jiang who should have been sleeping beside her is nowhere to be seen. With a cold face, Ji Xu’an drives the woman away. Only then does she see Jiang Jiang poking her head in from outside the door, looking at her with regret. Grinding her teeth, Ji Xu’an snaps, “Don’t you know someone was trying to get close to me?” Jiang Jiang blinks her almond-shaped eyes. “Don’t you like it?” Ji Xu’an’s expression darkens further. “Do you even have a heart? Aren’t you jealous at all?” Jiang Jiang hurriedly shakes her head. Jealousy is a grave fault! Besides, isn’t it the duty of a proper wife to help her wife take in a few beautiful concubines? She is already being so obedient—why does Ji Xu’an look even angrier? — Disclaimer: All rights to the original content belong to their respective creators. Original Name: 當古言女主穿進百合文 Author: 人间甜橙

Urasaria Academy

Decades of Cold War nuclear testing has led to the evolution of a new species of bacteria, colloquially referred to as Revenants - bacterial colonies only able to grow upon the hearts of 'hosts', granting them supernatural abilities and strength. In the ensuing years of turmoil, the United States creates the institution of Urasaria Academy, composed of young hosts who investigate and kill violent criminal hosts. In 2018, the young lesbian Mia Schultz is knocked unconscious and kidnapped by an unknown assailant. She awakens at Urasaria Academy to discover that she has been given a Revenant named Worldwide - the ability to summon an elemental swarm of fire scarabs. As she begins her new life at Urasaria, she is soon pulled into the mystery of Worldwide's true origins. === Urasaria Academy is a long-running series centered around the lives of the mostly-female, mostly-lesbian superpowered Urasaria students who kill violent criminals. Its primary influences are the serious literary dramas, romances, and horrors that I love, mixed with shonen / seinen influence. To answer other questions you may have: Q) When are chapters posted? A) Monday / Wednesday / Friday. Chapters are generally 2k-3k words each. There will be a 1-month hiatus between arcs to hopefully minimize delays. (NOTE: For now, I am daily-posting to help catch this version of Urasaria up to the versions on SH/RR. Please support on whichever platform you like! Thank you.) Q) When will this be completed? A) The first draft was 600kish words, so finalizing it here involves a timescale of years, not months. I've been writing Urasaria in some form for 8 years, so it will definitely be completed eventually, I just can't pin down when. Q) Are there any content warnings? A) Too many to count, but generally, I don't do things for shock value. Dark topics are covered as normal occurrences in life, not for edginess or to trigger. However, I wouldn't recommend Urasaria if you are upset by fictional gore / body horror. Q) Can I create fanwork based on Urasaria? A) I would be *honored* if somebody made fanwork based on Urasaria. Q) Is there anything else I should know? A) Your visual imagination should be anime-based, not live-action (otherwise cute things will be mistaken as horrifying). Cover by Konorin. No AI used (or ever will be used).
