Nullen: The Canvas of Gods

NovelGeek2
Two halves of a newborn god opened their eyes in the void—Black and White, each a reflection of the being they complete. "Wake up!" the Black half said in a toneless voice. "Stop yelling. I'm awake," the White replied in the same flat tone. "Tsk, then why do we feel nothing at all?" Black asked, eyeing the blank figure before them. "Because… nothing is what we are," White answered. The realm fell silent, the two infants facing one another—until the Black half laughed. "Haha, good. After all, nothing cannot be killed… nothing cannot be owned… it can only consume." "Or be consumed…" White murmured, but the Black only laughed again. “Let them try,” Black said. “They have no idea what our art will become.” ---- In a verse where power shapes reality itself.... Where Gods, Constellations, Devils, and horrors battle for the Throne of Existence—a new god is born. A being who is not only shaped by the world, but who reflects it. A canvas that absorbs power itself, feeding on the force that drives existence. Power.

Beauty and the Thief [BL]

Tao Hua's life is fucking miserable, and that misery somehow earns him the title of "Village Disgrace." In order to cope with the awful treatment, he often retreats into words untold, dictated by the flip of a page. These worlds leave him with the dream of escaping this piece of shit town. To his utter dismay, his wish comes true, but not in the way all those fairytales promised. His saviour is a man he becomes enthralled with and whom he names “Lord No-Name.” This male lead is a touchy man with many faces. And for lack of a better word, Tao Hua can’t decide if he’s either the story’s love interest or villain. But the two share a common sentiment. This prince, alike Tao Hua, is also fucking miserable. But arguably worse! And instead of coping like a normal fucking person, he does the opposite. He doesn't escape. He doesn't cope. He just tries to fight against the already fated truth of his demise. 0/10, worst prince ever written. Misery aside, this fateful encounter will force Tao Hua to make a choice, leaving him with only one question: "What was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despise a beauty's entire existence?" ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses are beautiful, and upon closer observation they’re less floral than once thought. It follows the POV of Tao Hua, as he tries to navigate his new life in a place that actually values him, and the prince of this story’s mood swings. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!!Disclaimer!!!! EXTREMELY SLOW PACED! This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic and self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. It often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. A lot of the work will be edited over time, but the bones will remain the same.
