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 , Zionists (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The 'Anarchists' (social chauvanists) in Bosporus, and the monarchs 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 is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain )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 , Shimmi (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran (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 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 , 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.
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
All serve the Union
All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism
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?

The Avakisser Chronicles, even more Book One.
Rare example where the narration is out of step with me, only a minor thing but:
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?
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.
Wayhaven's only detective is a total bottom
Lmao, gay. I bet you kiss GIRLS, detective. Also "I'd never thought much of my name before" is slightly hilarious.
oh my gooooddddd this is SO GOOD wtf?!! why did I pick anyone else? i need to get through Orange Book so i can get back to this lol
i have felt this feeling before. it's a good one, i'm big on my name tbh, maybe because i chose it myself.
This type of "ice queen" depiction presses all my stupid buttons. Feels good.
oh I want to play this so bad...no Avakissing until I finish Orange Book though!!
I believe in you!!!
Things are progressing well, I see.
You didn't tell me the most popular choice was actually good
Sometimes it do be like that
although a lot of people are getting mad because her route is so slow, but I imagine that's a plus for you
Huge skill issue, cowardly allosexuals don't want to put in the quality gay time and emotional investment to get kissed. L + ratio + get on my level
I never played her route in book 3, but the first two books are solid enough for her. I eagerly wait your assessment.
Will keep you posted
