YEAH I WRITE POP'N FANFIC WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? KILL ME? WHO WILL ARCHIVE LAPISTORIA THEN?
...well, SOMEONE will, but
So there's something sad about the state of fanfic publishing sites. FF.net is dying, I think. Wattpad is full of children and I don't want to return there. AO3 is run by zionists and populated by freaks. I was suggested to post to Quotev, but something feels weird about doing that.
Feeling stifled, I have ended up here. The Lapistoria archive. By all accounts I shouldn't be making this page, but, uh... this is also my Lapistoria shrine and I can do whatever the fuck I want. So I will. I'll send the Google Docs of my cringe and fail Pop'n fanfics here.
I do not consider myself a very good writer, actually. But I hope you can enjoy whatever the hell these are.
...I mean, I do have an AO3 because despite everything it's the most convenient site for publishing... but it's good to have another place, you know? If you want to seek me out on there, my handle is monochrome_leaper. All of these fics are posted there, in addition to some old Puyo fics and an unfinished Sumire/Mutsuki longform. Your kudos will boost my misplaced ego.
LAPISTORIA OR LAPISTORIA ADJACENT
WHEN THE WORLD SHINES
A series of connected fics taking place at the end of Lapistoria, the toll of a grand sacrifice. Centered around the twins, because of course it is.
I actually finished these out of order initially; I did part 1 as an experimental thing as I was nearing the end of the main story translation, and tried to start part 2 after... but finished part 3 before I finished part 2. Weird how that works, huh?
One-shot with Nia and her strange relationship with time following the events of Lapistoria.
With a little bit of ship with her and Rinka sprinkled in.
One-shot about Takuto and nightmares.
The piano man intrigues me greatly. Schall is here too, naturally. They're like siblings to me.
This is as cringe as it's gonna get. Takuto/Toa fic addressing the latter's fear of the dark.
See, I figure that Toa doesn't like the dark already. His dislike on his cards (maybe ironically, since this is actually Nia's favorite thing) is listed as dark and narrow places. But consider what happens in the story. Where was his consciousness when Jade Lapis Origin took control of the twins? Certainly not in a very good place. So I feel that a dislike evolves into a fear, and this came to mind. Also, is it just me or do power outages only happen at night? That's weird.
What will eventually happen when Navi (Usaneko) reaches godhood before Jade.
These two are besties to me that adventure around the worlds to learn more about them, so writing about them was inevitable. I know what the premise looks like but it's got a good ending I promise.
NOT LAPISTORIA
How I think MZD created the Pop'n World, inspired by the MV for... well, Votum Stellarum.
This fic is pretty much just an elaborate way of writing out the specifics of how I think he did it, but I still like it.
The first Pop'n fic I ever made. Sail (Usaneko) meets some guy after aimless swimming.
Sail uses she/they here. Have you ever listened to Sailren, by the way? You should listen to it. It's really, really good.
Something with Ayumu (Carnival), a nightmare, and an old friend.
Written after I tripled the Hyper chart for Alrescha. There is no deeper symbolism. I promise.
Navi meets the monster in UniLab's basement (aka Elem).
They're siblings to me. Please understand my vision or I'll cry. (Also Jade is in a flashback but shhhh)
I have a lot of WIPs that will probably not see the light of day for a while, but if I ever finish them I'll link them here too.
