Ellie's Oddly Wholesome Fics

Inyouchuu is a series about tentacles, terrified girls being impregnated with giant larvae, and powerful monsters inflicting horrors beyond human comprehension.

So naturally, somebody's gotta write some PG-rated fanfics about it!

I covered my contributions in the general writing thread previously, but I figured why not combine all my work into one thread? So here's a list of my limited existing creations, along with things I'm planning in the future. In case this wasn't already clear to new readers, I don't generally have the energy and drive to write explicit content except in very rare cases. Most of the stories below leave the graphic details to your imagination, even the ones that do specifically feature H scenarios.

• Demon Hunting Takes Balls of Steel

  At present, this is easily my best fanfic to date (for any source material), and while it misses a few bits of canon and takes some creative liberties, it's still something I was proud to pour my heart into. DHTBoS is set in a hypothetical AU after the events of Inyouchuu The Animation, or more specifically a variation in which Mikoto's plot to defeat Nightmare in Episode 2 was successful. Two months after escaping with their lives, the Black Cats go on to cleanse a haunted pub that turned out to be unable to pay their exorcism bill and offered them a broken pinball machine as alternative payment. Now they're stuck learning how to nurse it back to health in hopes of making extra income at a local restaurant, while still taking demon-hunting jobs to stay afloat. Along the way, they gradually learn to cope with the trauma they suffered in the ill-fated Shunjuu Academy job. Meanwhile, Nightmare - who had been wounded but not killed - plots his return and his revenge on the girls.

• A Black Cat in Faraway Town

  Don't jump into this one yet.
  I'll come right out and say it: This fic is okay. At best. Looking back, over a year after writing, it feels like a naive attempt to shove a favorite character into another favorite series without much thought as to how to make it interesting. The premise is simple; Mikoto missteps during a one-on-one fight with Nightmare, uses a seal to open an escape portal, and accidentally throws herself into the supernatural realm offscreen in the heavily emotional RPG OMORI. From there, a certain deceased spirit points out the safe exit - but now she's stuck in the town of Faraway Town without any magical energy in her ofudas to get home. This leads to her becoming something of a spectator on a few canon events of the final day of the game, while putting together a way back and worrying about whether any familiar monsters will show up.

  They do show up, in fact, but the capture of major character Aubrey only leads to a scare for her before she is rescued untouched.
  After she makes it back to her realm, it is revealed that Mikoto crossed dimensions entirely, and Inyouchuu is normally a work of fiction in that universe. As I said, it's okay at best. It punches limply and misses many opportunities to take advantage of canon elements.

• Kitchen Nightmares
  One of two fics actively in progress right now. The premise for this one is that during a hunt through a possessed mansion, Mikoto finds herself trapped in a kitchen that seems to have become a sealed pocket dimension - and who else could she be stuck there with but Lord Nightmare? Despite a clear instinct to have his way with her, Nightmare informs her that he's been stuck there long enough that he's willing to work with her on finding a way out. Mikoto soon realizes that the only way to dissipate the dimensional barrier is to feed it specific meal requests, leading to her and her archenemy having a cooking session together. This fic idea was conceived and birthed in the comments of EchelonV's first fic, and it already has the intro written as well as the ending. I just have to, you know, write that whole big part in the middle.

• Faraway Town Exorcism Record
  Imagine if A Black Cat in Faraway Town was actually good... and you have this one. Still very much an active work in progress but already long beaten DHTBoS in length. This fic is a darker interpretation of a very old OMORI-only fic I wrote called Do you want to have a picnic with MARI? In that fic, the titular Mari - who, in canon, tragically passed away four years before the game's present day - tries to depart through the curtains to the great beyond after one last chat with her brother in a dream, but accidentally releases an ancient, dying eldritch god who chooses to grant her the power to resurrect herself.
  Now, imagine that same scenario except this time she accidentally opens a portal into the Inyouchuu tentacle dimension. Nightmare crosses into the dream world of Headspace, finds it far more uncomfortably powerful than expected, and uses it to leap into the dreams of other nearby people. Who, you may ask? His first victim is Aubrey, of course, the pink-haired miniskirted tsundere, who endures the Inyouchuu The Animation Ep 1 experience (albeit mostly implied) and wakes up pregnant with one of our favorite giant demon larvae. From there, her rekindling friend group understandably freaks out, leading them to seek out help and eventually making contact with the Black Cat agency. Fearing Nightmare's potential return and takeover of the entire town, the Black Cats find a way to pay a visit and investigate in person. I cannot wait until this fic is ready to share, because I am loving how it's turning out.

• Inyouchuu Meltdown Hakyoku: Exorcism Record of the Apocalypse
  I'm going to keep the details of this one under wraps for the moment, but at this point I'm planning for this to be the first "VN script" fic that will be featured on this site with branching choices and a somewhat VN-inspired reading experience. For now I will merely say the story stars Mikoto's daughter, and this one will, in fact, have explicit H scenes!

Glad to see this here. I do see the potential in the non-explicit side of Inyouchuu, even if I'm primarily here for the demented obscenity.

Fully agree. Even my mother knows the story of the remake and genuinely enjoyed the somewhat curated version I presented her, despite knowing about (and not being interested in) the explicit H content. The lore is actually so fascinating that I just want to explore it as much as possible.

At the risk of nitpicking, if your VN script fic story is as apocalyptic as it sounds, then "catastrophe" might work better than "meltdown"

Especially because then the first part of the title could be written as Inyouchuu Hakyoku, which has a similar look to other Inyouchuu titles

I just thought that the way Inyouchuu, which is anglicized japanese, was followed by a regular english word looked a little off.

Very much appreciated, actually, and that may just be what I go with on the title. Thank you!

Given the tone of my current and recent fanfics, I'm trying to keep to a consistent standard of subtlety when it comes to implications of H content, and it's certainly a challenge. Obviously it's not a necessity in the context of an Inyouchuu fic, but I do like to stick with a writing style I'm good at.

So anyway, now I have to figure out how to subtly imply femboy tentacle rape.

Faraway Town Exorcism Record is turning into one very wild ride.

Joke answer of dubious taste: After the attack that isn't described, said femboy politely refuses to sit when offered the chance at a later point.

(Unless the assault is the of the less common variety of a tentacle sucking him off, less certain how to imply that)

other joking answer if the act is really offscreen (i.e., the femboy is abducted and found after everything explicit has happened) and you want to imply something really extreme: the femboy is being followed around by a demon bug that acts really friendly towards him, and if someone asks where it came from he just has a thousand-yard stare.

Haha... I mean, you're not wrong, it certainly would be a subtle implication.

Unfortunately, it takes place in a tentacle-cave dream in front of his friends, so that makes the writing situation a wee bit more complicated.

There's always ending one chapter on something like the tentacle taking aim and lunging, and then the next chapter is the aftermath of everything that happens to him.

It's probably going to end up at least somewhat similar to that, yeah.

And then comes the absolute dark comedy absurdity that will be Aubrey and Mari vs tentacles, and that's going to be even more unhinged (and difficult to make subtle). But we'll see how it goes!
