IMPORTANT SITE REMINDERS ARE LISTED AFTER THIS RANT (so please read all of it in order to find the rules >:3)

On this mega I shall take the opportunity to rant about one of my favorite things: the Webnovel UNJUST DEPTHS!

Do you love transgenders?

Do you love communism?

Do you love queer romance?

Do you love killing fascists in a giant fucking mech?

Would a plotline with all of these things happening in a underwater retro-futuristic gundam setting intrigue you?

Especially if its actually really well written with good characters, rich worldbuilding, and a marxist leninist transfem author?

All of the answers should be: YES I DO ~~or else I WILL BAN YOU~~

Since you obviously love all of those things then Unjust Depths is perfect for YOU yes YOU! It is DESTINY

The Imbrian Ocean is at a time of severe instability. The monarch of the vast Empire that spans its unjust depths (:3) is sick and nearing death, every territory of the ocean now vying to carve their own Destiny out of the chaos. From the Volk fascists pigmask-off , Zionists hamas-base (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The 'Anarchists' (social chauvanists) lenin-dont-laugh in Bosporus, and the monarchs gui-trans of each vast noble domain, each vies for power and prestige no matter who they crush underfoot, but it would be a pretty depressing story without a bright light in the dark.

On the edge of the Empire sits the glorious Union! The (Soviet) Union soviet-chad is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain left-unity-4 )that were formerly slave colonies under the Imbrian Empire until they broke away in a fierce liberation war. They have spent the last 20 years since then building themselves up. Whether they be Human bridget-disco , Shimmi kbity-how (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran transshork-happy (a hybrid humanoid species with characteristics of sea life ranging from sharks to cuttlefish)building socialism side by side.

First lead under the revolutionary leader Dashka Kansal, then the Idealist Ahwalia who lead the country to near ruin in pursuit of building a utopia on pillars of sand, then under the scientific socialist three-heads-thinking leadership of the Grand Marshall of the Union, Bhavani Jayanskar (I love Jayanskar so much shes basically as if Stalin, Lenin, and Zhukov were rolled into the same person but was a black lesbian badass who wore the uniform REALLY WELL)(she aint the main character at all tho shes only in very few scenes i just love her so much). Under Jayanskar, the Union has been growing their economy to both eliminate hunger and give everyone a home chad-stalin , but also growing their military capabilities for the inevitable return of the Empire. The Union is alone, but with the people by its side nothing, not even Destiny, can snuff out true freedoms light. specter

As war wages between the Empire and Republic (basically underwater USA) once more over the lands between them, the facade begins to finally crack...

And a border conflict between the Empire and Union escalate, and the dreaded reconquest begins.

Amidst this turmoil, lives our main characters (yes there are multiple and all of them are lovely). Each of whom I personally love dearly, and are very well characterized. Many are soldiers of the Union, some are scientists, some are divers (mech pilots), some are lost strands finding new meaning after joining this band of Brigands

All are Communists steban

All serve the Union USSR

All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism comrade-stoic

but even they would have little inkling of the adventure set in store for them as the lands beneath the waves erupt in fire, fury, and revolt

Can these transgender badasses kick fascist ass?

Can they kiss? (oh my god please kiss ISTG THERE IS SO MUCH SHIPPING AHHHH ITS GLORIOUS)

FIND OUT HERE: https://unjustdepths.com/

please do or else I will pout incessantly

just try it pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase i need to talk to someone about it after Cromalin went AFK

(I miss her, she was a real one)

The Avakisser Chronicles, Book OneWaow... engels-wut Ava sure is tough to talk to. I think I probably annoy her as much as I get through to her, not that I'm unsatisfied. It's going well but WAOW she is like 200% mad. I am but a smol bean smh! I have no idea where I got the flirt point with her from, but that's funny. Genuinely kind of interesting doing the dance of "will this be needling her and annoy her, or will it make her say "uwu" I wonder" about it. This kind of 'social sim' metagame is fun too, when I can engage with it at my own speed.

I wanna know what flavour of Br*tish her accent is. It's not an automatic no-go but some posh accents are kinda lame. Will always prefer scottish and irish accents of all types.

E: Oh gosh I played bottom when I looked at her in the car, sheesh!!! This is goofy fun, I like this a lot. Ditching "relationship points" was a good idea though, since I sometimes follow the compulsion to get em.

After a while, I find there's an odd sense of calm that comes from standing beside her. It makes my tension ease and sends a flutter through my stomach. Maybe it's her lithe, solid figure, or possibly the tight-lipped frown I doubt anyone would bother trying to mess with, or the confidence that radiates off her that wants to cover me like a velvet blanket.

Can anybody help, my detective is a total bottom, lmao.

Turning her focus back to Ash, Ava's surprised to find the detective's cheeks flushed pink, their lower lip caught between their teeth. What Ava hadn't realised when she put the scarf around Ash is that she'd had to step much closer. The gap between them is now barely a couple of inches.

My detective rn: im-fuckin-gay

small food mention, positiveSpent the day off with my lovely wife, we spoiled ourselves with a trip to taco bell and then we cuddled up and watched The Matrix while we ate! I haven't watched it since I was like 13 and it was even better than I remember. Then I played some Melee online and ruined some Ice Climbers player's night, and now I'm just hanging out on the 'puter. All in all a very refreshing day off for this woman-adjacent creature.

I headcanon both Laois and Kbity kbity-how as agender. They just both seem like they have no conception of gender. Also Izutsumi is heavily implied to be asexual and Laois never demonstrates attraction, so they could be asexual as well.

The Avakisser Chronicles, even more Book One.Rare example where the narration is out of step with me, only a minor thing but:

I peer at the grain of the wood showing through the paint as though staring at it closer might give me some clue as to why I've stopped here. Do I really want to talk to Ava right now? The team leader is brooding and imposing in normal situations…I'm not sure how she's dealing with all of this.

Actually no, narration. Like she acts prickly, but she isn't actually mean. You be nice to her for two entire seconds and she's a complete dork, she's kinda lovely u kno.

Like when you darken her door at the facility she's fucking furious and it wouldn't be unreasonable for the detective to be pissed off, but like.... This is sort of a subtext-test, almost. The way she snaps at you about thinking she's a monster, Ava has probably had really shit experiences with humans. What if you say "uwu ur not a monster ur a stronk byootiful girlkisser" to her?

"I don't think you're a monster, Ava," I reply finally, my tone just as serious as her had been.

The hostility in her stance drops, though she seems hesitant. A frown fights for position on her expression, but it succumbs to regret instead. "Maybe you should."

"Why?" The word is breathy as it leaves me, an emotional weight seeming to grip at my chest from nowhere.

The slightest smile curves her lips. "Because it would be safer for you." The frown finally sets deep on her face. "For me."

She shakes her head, straightening herself. "I mean for all of us. We won't harm you, but we're still dangerous."

The tension of the previous moment, which Ava had obviously been keen to dispel, doesn't seem to budge. I shift under the weight of it.

"Right." It's all I can say as a reply. With silence the only thing to greet me, I make to turn away.

I only take one step before her hand reaches out to my arm. "Detective…."

cat-trans Oh NO she's a big fucking SOFTIE~! I bet she secretly really likes gay romantic candlelit dates or something, look at this smh. "Ooh I'm so dangerous detective, you shouldn't try to kiss me detective!" Too bad, ur cute lmao. Nerd.
