eeveelution squad

Spoiler

one missing number away from becoming a parody of most pokemon fanworks.

shame, seeing as it originally was a slice of life comic.

this is because the writer fell to cyber bullies who hate anything original.

Spoiler

Differenttopic:

Spoiler

No mercy: a 2011 trollpasta villain, and (self-proclaimed) god, fights canon sans wearing a sheep costume, and is then beat up by the fastest thing alive.

true pacifist: fastest thing alive uses emeralds made of pure bad deeds & sin to revive a hobo, and is then beat up by an ostrich that people keep mistaking for a deity, after dating a pikachu thats dating herself.

To add to the above, it's kind of the norm here to spoiler everything, no matter how old.

If anything, I think you aren't supposed to post for books in spoiler period at all. There were some warnings about that back when RoW was new, though using at least the tag would be nice.

The spoiler period is ending in just a couple days so I'm letting it be here with a tag. Edited in a spoiler tag. Feel free to report untagged spoilers to the mods!

A girl kills her mother and her best friend (her refers to the girl, not to the mother; though forget about it, she actually also kills her mother's best friend); she let everyone believe her father did it, then she kills her father too. then she leaves on an adventure where she steals from her first mentor, she sinks a ship full of people that had been nice to her, and she befriends the woman who killed her first mentor. That woman becomes her second mentor, before the protagonist kills her too, too during a hectic trip in which she intimidates an honest merchant into giving away his wares for free, she acquires slaves, and she leads a gang of deserters and murderers - whom she'll help escape justice. all so she can reach a place where she meets a nice boyfriend, a third mentor, and a nice old dude who takes her in; needless to say, she'll swindle and manipulate all three - pointing them towards attempting genocide.

she spends four books learning to stop to feel bad about all the crap she does in those same books.

explotied laborer works for 1500 years straight without getting a single free day, not even weekends.

after 1500 years, she finally gathers the courage to actually ask for a free day, and she discovers she could have as many as she wanted.

in the end it's revealed her job was no longer necessary, but nobody in the department ever got the memo, and so she loses her job. And she causes her boyfriend and all her newfound friends to lose their jobs too.

 

Wait, even better: explotied laborer works for 1500 years straight at moving stones, without getting a single free day, not even weekends.

when she finally gathers the courage to ask for a free day, she and all her friends lose their job.
