And From the Infinite by argyle_gargoyle
Gabbro/HatchlingThe first thought Gabbro had after waking up from their experience within the Eye was “Damn. That was anticlimactic.” The second thought they had was a very poetic and well thought out “Fuck, man.”

Summary
I'm not being fair, it'd be better if I sat down and took a deep breath before...
"No, it's over for you, Gabbro. Because you can't bother getting up and doing anything at all. Because you're just sitting here on your little island doing nothing while I go through all the most painful experiences you could ever imagine all by myself."
... I say something really stupid.
"Because I have two mass extinctions on my mind day and night, while you're just sitting here twiddling your thumbs."
Yikes.
Gabbro takes what you said in, you can tell. It was eerily silent then, cyclones whistling and thunder roaring, sure, but it still felt like it was dead quiet.
"Hey, you want some sap wine by any chance. I've got some down there somewhere..." they suggest after a while.
"I hate sap wine." You say in a sort of deadpan voice.
"Okay, but I don't, so, do you mind?" They stretch their hand out.

"I'm just thinking... Gossan would have some things to say about that."
"Oh believe me, I can imagine. What do you think was the first thing they told me before sending me off into space?"
"With how they had to keep you from putting your nose into every random finding when you were a hatchling? Um... 'Don't inhale random space fumes?'"
"'Don't inhale random space fumes.'"

Summary
You don't know what it is—a detailed hallucination, a trick of the mind, or one last gift from the Eye of the universe in recognition of your years of steadfast dedication to finding the answer. Infinite life condensed into a moment: twenty-two minutes to save the universe. In the end, you led yourself and everyone you loved to their final resting place. A universe contained within the space of an atom, an explosion as bright as a supernova.
And then you woke up.

Summary
There's only so much you can do to in a 22 minute time loop that ends in the sun going supernova. You've tried a whole lot of what you can do, but at some point, there's a change that needs to happen, and you have to try something new.
So you can try to fix it, or give up. You're leaning on the former.
But as you realize, it's a painfully hard job to keep a dying universe from going out completely.

Summary
So Gabbro’s always gotten a giggle or two out of a twisted situation. So Shale’s getting more morbid by the hour. So they’re both more than a little sick in the head by now.
All this to say—you can’t really blame them for making the joke, can you?
