Summary
You stare up at the gently swaying branches, fractals of light filtering through the space between the canopy, and breathe.
The world breathes with you, in and out, a soft breeze sweeping across the clearing. Grass tickles the back of your neck; you can feel the uncomfortable press of gnarled roots against your spine, and you swear beneath the bark you can feel a heartbeat, a steady thrumming that speaks of life.
It’s all so alive. It’s not the same fabricated, carefully designed set you stood on hours before. There is no stage anymore. The act is over. It’s not haunted by fragments of things left behind in past loops, in your memories, or in other pieces of you torn away from their home and tethered here by the stars. It’s no longer broken, failing, rotting away with the sickening smell of burnt sugar.
It’s. Alive.
… You’re alive.
The air is crisp, the birds cry out, the tree above you waves gently in the wind, and you are alive.
✧✧✧
In which I finally give Siffrin the recovery arc they truly deserve. And by that, I mean a messy one.

Summary
The loops are finally over, now is the time for healing.
With the King defeated and being freed of the loops, Siffrin attempts to proceed through his life with his found family. He has his ups and downs, but he has been doing relatively well as of late. And with the reappearance of a certain helpful guide in his dreams, he feels as if life is slowly piecing itself back together.
But it's never that simple, and Siffrin and the shining Star he had grown close to must understand that sometimes life will kick them from underneath their feet. This is a story of healing, self-discovery, and love.
(Yes that was cheesy but I DON'T CARE THIS GAME MAKES ME FEEL THINGS)

Summary
It's been 30 years since the events of the game. Odile now lies on her death bed as everyone is gathered for the last time. Just as she takes her last breath, Siffrin feels a tug on his stomach, and is sent back all the way to the day after they all defeated the King. This time though, he hears a familiar voice he hasn't heard in decades.
This fic is going to focus on Loop slightly more than Siffrin, but both are definitely the key players in this fic, along with a healthy helping of Nille! I try my best to let everyone shine now and then at least, but sadly I can't give every character as much 'screen time' as I'd like to. That being said, I hope you enjoy!

Summary
It's loop... 86, you think. Or, no, you touched a tear, and this is the space between loop 85 and 86.
There is an eye. You think, this symbolism is awfully heavy-handed. Around the eye is a shade you've never seen before. It's bright and vibrant and striking, and shines in such a way that is nearly blinding. You shield your own single eye.
It gets ever closer, bearing down on you like an expanding Sun, dying. "HEY, I SEE WE'RE BOTH IN A BIT OF A PICKLE. WANNA MAKE A DEAL?"
"what?" you manage to choke out of your strangled throat, finally.
"WELL, YOU'RE IN A TIME LOOP, YEAH? AND I'VE BEEN UNFAIRLY IMPRISONED. YOU'RE TRAPPED, I'M TRAPPED, WE GET EACH OTHER."
The eye widens.
"WHAT IF I TOLD YOU," it says, "THAT I KNOW HOW YOU CAN GET OUT OF YOUR HELL?"☆👁☆
You talk to everyone at the end, and then you go talk to the Head Housemaiden. Euphrasie. You go up to her, and you ask her about Wish Craft, and—
And nothing changes.
You lay in that blinded clearing, and stare at the sky.
Bill appears above you. He blinks.You hold out your hand.
"Deal."
