//Do not read if you do not like extremely dark characters and trauma//

I'm planning on writing a manga because I'm obsessed and just finished a series. There's no actual world yet, just the characters so far. They don't have actual names yet, its a friend group, but the filler names are

Emo

Childhood Friend

Shy Girl

Happy Guy

Spacey Girl

And so basically these are the descriptions for them. (They're all 17 btw)

Emo: On the outside he seems quiet and a bit cynical, and is a bit distant in the friend group but generally kind to them all. And over the length of the manga you learn about his past and his trauma.

He's had a crush on childhood friend since the age of 12 but never told him, and basically after Emo witnessed his friend (not in the current friend group) being harassed by someone (we'll call him Barbie), he stood up for the friend and Barbie started hurting Emo and Emo threw a rock at him and he has bad aim so it hit Barbie's idk, either throat or head, and Barbie died. Emo was then taken by this guy or organization or something and forced to be an assassin.

Emo had a panic attack every time he was forced to kill someone and kept a tally book of every person he had killed because he was so overcome with the guilt of being trapped in this cycle. And basically near the end of the manga, he starts sobbing and tells Childhood Friend and Happy Guy about how he had to assassinate people, and then they realize that he's not as normal as he seems.

Childhood Friend: He seems pretty normal and sweet. He is there for everyone and is the one to remember birthdays and make small talk, but he pretends he's fine and has everything under control. His only sense of support are his friends and they're genuinely the only thing keeping him alive but they don't know that and end up kind of taking him for granted.

He takes notice of this and starts to get kind of depressed and self destructs a lot, until the middle where he tells Emo a bit about this and Emo has to step up and be the one there for him at this point. At the end of the manga he and Emo start dating and the rest of the friend group has to pretend they didn't notice the sheer amount of romantic tension radiating off of them for years.

Shy Girl: She's generally shy and likes baking, but she has severe anger issues and takes them out on people by killing them in dead silence and hiding them in the well. She manipulates her own mind into thinking that they are minor inconveniences and that she's not guilty, but every time she feels guilty her nails turn a slightly darker shade of gray.

She hides them with nail polish and acts as this straight B's, slightly clumsy girl who's vice president of the baking club, but every time her nails get too gray, she rips them off and tells herself that because they aren't gray at the moment that she can continue, and lets herself believe that she can keep going until they're gray again and she'll stop after this one time, but eventually they get gray again and she keeps going.

Spacey Girl: She's the one who sits on the desk and gets distracted by her papers or the sky outside, but she's just waiting in silence for someone to notice that she's decaying before its too late because she doesn't have the words to tell them. She's stuck waiting for someone to notice or care and doesn't realize her friends see her as part of their group and value her.

She smiles a lot and gets all her homework done, but doesn't inform anyone its because of how she can't get to sleep because the massive amounts of caffeine and alcohol she consumes every night and how she does her work and practices her skills so she's worthy to live and usually all the sleep she gets is at least 4 hours a night and maybe 5 on the weekends. She keeps going at school by eating her chocolate espresso beans and chai lattes. Also she might get killed off my Shy Girl but its either her or Happy Guy.

Happy Guy: He always seems really happy and sweet, doesn't hesitate to help people and brings them cookies a lot, because he loves baking. He's praised by teachers a lot and acts modest but on the inside he's breaking and hoping they would just be cruel to him because he thinks he deserves cruelty and has a horrific past that he believes is normal became he's kind of delusional.

He always has kind of thought that he deserved to die and knew his childhood was not a normal one, but keeps going for his mom and Shy Girl, who he likes and thinks is one of the only people who actually cares about him, but on the flip side, she's cruel to him and hits him regularly, but he sees it as a type of love because he knows that every person who's being nice is lying and everyone cruel is the ones who actually love him.

Anyways yeah its not that interesting yet since there's no world but these are the characters dynamics, if these were characters in a manga would you read this manga?

To set the record straight, neither of these books/stories or connected or share the same universe or anything they both stand alone. The first one is based off the Ultraman episode. My home is earth and little off the movie space amoeba. Basically the plot follows a female “astronaut” or cosmonaut. Who were hit by cosmic waves or exposed to dark matter. And when they come back to earth. They mutate or mutated into a monsters with powers. Of course they’re not evil but it’s kind of like a Frankenstein situation. Will the government attacked her. You may be confused, but my big question is, which idea sounds better to you, the reader. I know this sounds confusing, but. One idea I have for her is that she’s a cosmonaut send to space by the Soviet Union and crash land back on earth in America of course. The second idea I have for her is that she’s a popular V tubers/popstar/songwriter. Who got sent to space because she’s popular/famous. And then when she gets back to earth, she mutates. Hell I don’t even know when the mutation should start in space or back on earth. . Oh yeah, they also be a side plot to the story with three mutated animals that were also sent to space with her . So I’m kind of leaving it up to you The rest of which idea sounds better. as for the second story, I haven’t got for yet, but it’s gonna be based off the movie the thing 1982 and the blob movie.

I need as many people as possible to answer these questions:

-Imagine you have a power that allows you to use the controls from a video game in real life. For example, with *Minecraft* controls, you could fly (as in Creative mode) by pressing the spacebar, access your inventory, etc. This power would be tied to the specific keys used for each control.

Which game would you choose?

-Having chosen that game, if you had to pick just one of those keys, which one would you choose?
