My Dream Was to Become Ordinary, After All

ChickenJay
Haruma "Haru" Kisaragi transfers from Tokyo to a high school in Shizuoka with only one wish—to live an ordinary life. No expectations. No unnecessary attention. Just peaceful days until graduation. But starting over is never as simple as changing schools. Between a loud seatmate who won't stop talking to him, an older sister who seems to know everyone on campus, childhood memories that refuse to stay in the past, and classmates who slowly become friends, Haru's quiet routine begins to change one ordinary day at a time. As the seasons pass and new encounters color his once-monotone world, Haru starts to question the future he had already given up on. Perhaps moving forward isn't about running away from the past. Perhaps it's about discovering who you are, what you truly want, and the people who help you find the answer.

Hiatus, Rewrite & Continuation!!

A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones belong to George R. R. Martin. I'm simply writing a fan story set in his world after what was season 5- what they are calling an ending. Welcome! This story was inspired by the many amazing authors who have expanded upon or created wonderful worlds I love, especially A Song of Ice and Fire. While I admire Martin's incredible world-building, I wanted to explore a different direction. This is an original character (OC) as Robb Stark story. In this timeline, Robb dies in a stable accident early on, but he is replaced by a reincarnated fan and veteran, a history professor who possesses knowledge of the world and its future. This is not a tech-uplift fic—expect modest improvements in tactics, engineering, logistics, and sanitation, but no guns, trains, or miracle medicines. The Old Gods and some others, as well as magic, play a bit more in this story, but not in a way of high fantasy The story follows a capable Robb who knows what is coming and intends to change history. Don’t expect the White Walkers to be the final threat, and if all goes according to plan, this story will exceed 300,000 words. I also take a different approach to Westerosi politics. Some events and alliances in the canon never made much sense to me, so this story explores how things might unfold with a more experienced Robb making different decisions—including preparing for dragons. Thank you for giving my fanfic story a glance. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it.
