[WP] Yeah yeah, common Isekai plot from a nation in dire straits. However when they asked for a 'Warrior clad in steel', they didn't expect this strange, enclosed chariot to appear with people inside. These men call their beast a 'tank'.

[WP] As a vampire, I follow traditions. My fiancé is human and just found out that human brides/grooms are to be bit to become a vampire themselves. She absolutely refuses to let that happen, and says the wedding is off unless I refuse to bite her. I feel like she's disrespecting tradition. AITA?

[WP] In a galaxy that is quite xenophobic and isolationist humanity is the odd one out. We generally like aliens and want to get along. When they turned us down, we redoubled our efforts. Now our fleet is orbiting the alien's home world. We may no longer come in peace, but they will be our friends.
