    Summary

    Candy!Dirk—sent spiraling by the existential catastrophe of his continuity's divergence from canon—is visited by Gamzee, triggering a plunge through the memories of his ultimate self that culminates in his decision to commit suicide.

    A fic that explores the ultimate self, touches on the unseen time between Dirk quitting as Jane's presidential campaign advisor and hanging himself from the bell tower, and answers the age-old question: what the fuck was Gamzee doing at Dirk's place when Dave discovered his suicide note? Seriously, what was he doing there? I think about this all the time. Also serves as a prologue to 'I'm Barely a Person Anymore (I'm Just a Collection of Memories That Aren't My Own),' a little Ultimate Dirk-centric series I'm working on.

    Summary

    It's well into the evening once you're done. A pack of cigarettes and all the drinks in your sylladex gone. The cigs loitering around your feet, some crushed, some not. The cans are in a neat stack, pyramid shaped. Before you leave the roof you kick the cans. Stare at them, fall and roll around. Some finding their way off the edge of the roof. You stare at them and listen to hear them hit the ground below.
    (Title partially inspired by Knife Prty by Deftones)

    Summary

    You think it's a dream. You blur from place to place, like a dream. And Homestuck characters are there, like your dreams often have.

    But it's real, isn't it. Your consciousness has been transported into the body of Bro Strider, and a young Dave is terrified of you, and you've got less than three days to figure out how to save the world.

    And you just feel nothing at all.

    (An OC gets isekai'd into Bro Strider's head. With an unexpected ally or two, can they change their own fate—or is history doomed to play out how it always had?)

      Bookmark Notes:

      John just continues to watch the rolling clouds high above the two of you. “Do you think we’re ever really alone?”

      “Aliens.”

      “No, no, like, do you think theres like... more of us? Us like you and me.”

      “What do you mean?”

      He raises both arms toward the sky, still holding onto your hand with his left, and makes some wide gestures with them. “What if there are copies of us in alternate dimensions, and we all exist at the same time. We all always exist forever.”

      “This sounds a lot like a time travel theory.”

      He shakes his head. “Not time, space. Every moment we exist, there would be a dimension for that. Each moment would have its own universe, in which everyone exists, and it exists forever, but just for that moment.”

      “Okay, so theres a billion copies of us in different dimensions. That would mean...?”

      “What if some dimensions overlap? Two copies of us could exist simultaneously in the same universe, just in different points of space.”

      “Sounds like time travel.”

      “It’s not time travel, it’s just the overlappings of reality, resulting in the manifestation of two Daves, or two Johns at the same time.”

    Summary

    "Other actual human beings, but as distant to you as if they too were citizens of some far away planet, as real as characters in movies. You’d never really dared speak to them besides whatever perfunctory interactions were necessary to facilitate the purchase of a fuckton of frozen burritos and bags of chips. You’d never gone to school, never had a babysitter, never so much as played with some random asshole kids in the park. You’d known without asking that your Bro would never have tolerated that. So for the longest time, no one else really existed in your world."

    While belatedly learning how to interact with people in real life, Dave experiences a lot of firsts, and the world changes. Or maybe he does.

    Summary

    Hal finds himself stranded aboard a certain meteor, impact-bound for Houston, Texas circa 1995. And everything spirals out from there.

    Because sometimes, when a system seems to be just short of defunct, all that is required is to take a step back and reevaluate the materials at hand and redistribute your available resources.

    And so, with birth comes a countdown on a cycle that begins as it ends: In the red.

    Your name isn't Dirk Strider but you've got twenty fucking years of fragmented memories living as the man named just that, and you're starting to realize you're always just gonna have to answer to a name that's not yours.

    On April 13th, 2009, the world will end. And you will die. But for now, you've got a baby to raise and thirteen years to ruin him, with or without the puppet's help.

    Summary

    You blink. You've just awoken to the dulcet tones of Fred Durst yelling about the way that it's just one of those days when you don't want to wake up. Raising your very uninjured arm and pressing your hand against your eyes so hard you start seeing stars, you just might have to agree with his assessment. Because it is one of those days where everything is fucked. Everybody does, in fact, suck.

    Your name is DIRK STRIDER, and this is the third time you've woken up on this exact morning.

    You just might have to start breaking stuff.

    In a world slightly off from the one we are used to, the Striders end up stuck in a Groundhog Day-esque time loop.

    How do you get out of a labyrinth when all you have is a string that keeps fraying?
