Oh wow! Look at how popular Bloodstained Porcelain is getting! It makes me very happy to see my Doll story doing so well (we are sitting at a respectable rank 45 for doll/puppet stories.) Thank you everyone for reading my still ongoing Doll story.

We're in this bundle, infecting it with our own story, THE NANO-ROBOTS IN MY BRAIN HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOU FROM ACROSS THE BAR!

It's a short story that maybe, might, possibly get expanded into a longer novel or webserial.

And the best way to get it is through the bundle:

You know that cursed spring that turns you into a girl from a certain anime everyone loves? Turns out the Ancient Romans had one too.
So of course I used that for a story. It's very bi in multiple directions. Give it a read.
