Tag: Dungeon Crawler Carl

Happy Belated Thanksgiving!

Hello, everyone! I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a great one! Mine was fine, I had to do a lot of work during a church service because of system issues, but we think we’ve figured it out (I hope {We did!}). They announced who got the upper-level position at work but haven’t put lower-level job up to apply to. Hopefully, it’ll happen soon, but you never know.

So, I’ll talk a bit about the Dungeon Crawler Carl book that I mentioned last time. Carl was chasing his ex-girlfriend’s prized cat (Princess Donut [insert long name I’m not going to repeat]) at night, outside in a blizzard without pants, when the apocalypse came. Aliens flattened all structures and anything that had a ‘roof’. They then announced to the survivors that they had to either live with what was left or join a dungeon crawling game to try and win the planet back. Carl grabbed Donut and bolted to an entrance to survive. He didn’t expect for Donut to gain sapience. Now he has to go through the Dungeon without pants and with a ‘royal’ cat. His most common phrase is “Dammit, Donut.” It’s worth a read and is part of a series.

So, changes to what I’m listening to – I rushed through Yet again, with a little extra help by Third Fang. This is because of what I mentioned about its sequel being next on the list. I read the one right behind it, but I managed to finish and am now reading the sequel. I don’t have its replacement yet, so I’ll mention it next week.

Because of that, I only finished The Echo Ranger by Xavon Wrentaile and that only because I hadn’t read past the 22 chapter. I’m now almost finished catching up to it’s current chapter, 29. The next one I’m listening to is A Hero Rises by Zabeck. It’s a My Hero Academia fic that I’ve mentioned before in the quest here. It’s a longer fic, but I’ll remind people. [*A warning, this has explicit sex scenes, don’t read if you’re underage or aren’t interested*] It’s an Izuku/Himiko/1-A girls fic, just so you’re forwarded.

Onto the quest, first is Constellations by UnwelcomeStorm. This is a Worm and Okami games crossover. Taylor first meets Amaterasu in her great wolf form when she’s lost in the forest at summer camp when she’s young. Taylor names her Sunshine (Sunny) and they meet up irregularly. After her mom dies and she’s alone, Sunny comes saves her flute. After an odd sequence of events, including accidentally convincing Oni Lee that she’s a Miko; she and Sunny end up fixing up an abandoned shrine. It’s an amusing fic and Danny’s even a cape in this one. It has 54 chapters, but hasn’t been updated since 2021.

Second is Contractual Obligation: How Visha Secured her Position as Adjutant for Life by TanJaded. This is a Youjo Senki (which is finally getting a second season next year) short fic. After years, the war is finally over and the 203rd is back in the capital. Tanya (who’s 18 by now) tells Visha that she won’t be her adjutant forever. Visha decides she doesn’t like that and looks into how she can be her adjutant for life. This leads her an interesting document that means she can take care of Tanya for life. The only thing is getting her to sign it. (And yes, I’m referring to getting married). It’s amusing little finished fic.

Third is Coping Mechanisms by sakurademonalchemist. It’s a KHR fic I’ve mention before here. Tsuna finds out that his mother is more lucid when he’s dressed up as a girl, so he decides to do it more. He’s found out and is helped by Hibari, as long as he helps keeps the girls away. Then Fon breaks the seal, and they really can switch genders. It has 8 chapters and is of course, unfinished since 2017.

Fourth is Corpse Cleaner by also by sakurademonalchemist. It also another KHR fic I’ve mentioned before here. Tsuna is a corpse cleaner in Italy at a young age. He gets along well with the Varia and they helped him to find his grandmother. How will the Vongola deal with a former cleaner as their heir? You’ll barely find out here, because it only has 7 chapters and hasn’t updated since 2019.

Fifth is later in a series, so the first one is The Winged Lord and Lady of the Skies by LilyannaSpiritOfTheCheetah. This one is a Mighty Morphin Power Ranger fic with Tommy/Kimberly. [Warning there is rape and noncon sex scenes] While Tommy is under the evil spell, he kidnaps Kim. He does somethings he wouldn’t normally do and they become more connected then normal. They also have a kid. It goes through Turbo.

Next in the series is the actual next one for the quest, Countdown to Destruction. Tommy, Kim and the other rangers are contacted by the Space Rangers about an attack coming to Earth. Will things go the same way as in the show? Read this one-shot to find out.

Sixth and finally is Crimson Typhoon by sakurademonalchemist. It’s a Naruto and One Piece crossover that I’ve mentioned before here. Shanks is Kushina’s father and comes for fem. Naruto. She joins his crew and changes things up. It has 8 chapters and is hasn’t been updated since 2014.

I’m getting things ready for Christmas, and I have a recital coming up, but things are normal other than that. So, as always, May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!

Links Can Make You Late (Reprise)

Hello once again, readers. Sorry this is so late. As the title says, once again I didn’t pay attention to the links for the quest and had to take time to do them. I could have done this yesterday, but I really wanted to finish a physical book I was reading, Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman. I got it for Christmas last year and I hadn’t gotten around to it because I was focusing on the quest. However, I completed the side S stories early last week and wanted to spend time finishing a few other stories including this one. It was fun and I’ll read the rest at some point. I’ll talk about it next week because I have a bit to say this time.

I am pleased to announce that I have finished Digimon: Time Stranger! I got all the Digimon I could get before finishing, then completed the game and got the last 5 I needed (all Aegiomon digivolutions). I could do new game + or finish all the achievements (I only have 5 left), but those matter little to me so, maybe, if I get bored.

Onto my week, it was a bit stressful because of the rain and learning that the company didn’t get the leaks fixed from the last time. The clean-up wasn’t as bad as last time and nothing was irrevocably damaged. We had to do some set-up because of the rain that did happen this weekend. I get to see how that worked tomorrow. Fun, right?

I also learned that a slightly higher paying job I’ve tried to get in the company before is most likely opening up. A higher-level position was vacated and someone in the position I’ve mentioned is most likely to get it. I can hope I’ll get it, but past experience hasn’t made me that enthusiastic that I will.

Anyway, to what I’m listening to, the first change is that I finished By the Grace of the Gods Vol 5 and started In Another World With My Smartphone Vol 3. Toya once again manages to stumble on conflict, but this time in Eashen, this world’s equivalent of ancient Japan. Turns out there’s someone using the dead to attack. Will Toya and his girls be able to save the day? And what’s happening in the ruins they originally went to find? Finally, will he finally learn that the girls like him?! All that and more!

I also finished Ginny Returns by kb0 and am listening to Harry Potter, Squatter by Enterprise1701-d. It’s a Harry Potter and Percy Jackson crossover. In it, Harry is taken to New York by the Dursley’s on a business trip and they abandon him. He’s lucky enough to find the Empire State building and end up on Olympus. He squats in a semi-abandoned temple and Hestia finds him. She looks after him and becomes a mother to him. However, some aren’t happy he’s there. I won’t reveal who his Godly parent is, but I did give a small hint. It’s interesting and has 82 chapters. It’s even still updating!

Deku? I think he’s some pro… by Clouds (myheadinthecoudsnotcomingdown) was finished as well and I started The Echo Ranger by Xavon Wrentaile. It’s a My Hero Academia and Power Ranger crossover. Izuku ends up in an antique shop running from his bullies. There he finds an odd three-headed coin that turns into a morphing watch. Tommy Oliver shows up in his dreams and reveals that after the Earth was cut off from the morphing grid and Quirks started to show up, the rangers worked to create the Echo Ranger. They used the still mostly intact power coins of Tommy to give it three modes based on his Green, White and Black powers. Watch as Izuku becomes a Power Ranger in a world of quirks. And will he be the only one? Read and find out! It has 29 chapters and is still ongoing!

 So, onto the quest! The first one is Compass of Thy Soul by Umei no Mai. It’s a Naruto fic that I’ve mentioned before here. A person from our world ends up reincarnated into the Naruto world, but instead of the main Naruto storyline; they’re born into the Uchiha in the time of Madara. Kita doesn’t remember much at a young age, but tries to help out. This leads to her being engaged to Madara! Watch as Kita changes things for the better, but maybe not the way canon went. It’s completed and has a finished sequel!

Second is Conflicting Ideals by Razamataz22. It’s a My Hero Academia and Fate series crossover. Grownup Shiro and Rin end up de-aged and in the MHA universe. They try to live alone, but end up caught by the authorities. After trying to escape, they’re offer the chance to go to UA. Watch as Shiro does his best to get the rising heroes to believe in becoming true heroes! And who else would be around, but Archer. How will this end up? It has 73 chapters and is ongoing!

Fourth is Confrontation by ack1308. This one is Worm fic where things go wrong in Taylor’s fight with Lung. Armsmaster convinces her in the hospital to join the Wards. There she meets Shadow Stalker and they hit it off, with neither one knowing who the other is. This can’t go wrong, can it? Completed with a sequel.

Fifth is the sequel, Confrontation II: The Reckoning by ack1308. Taylor and Sophia have learned each other’s identities and now they’re being forced to get used to each other. They even meet Brian and Sophia is interested. Now what is so wrong with that? It’s complete with 10 chapters.

Finally, sixth is Consequences of an Ingenious Mind by White Angel of Auralon. This is a Harry Potter three-shot. Harry hides his intelligence and before third year, decides to change how he does things.  Plus, he learns of an interesting way to copy magical tools. Now how would that be useful? A fun little fic.

That’s it for now. Everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving and don’t eat too much! May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!
