    Summary

    “You’re difficult to work with. I’m not saying it’s anyone’s fault.” He smiled softy and Ingo, despite himself, was struck with a sharp pang of jealousy. “Not even yours. You can’t help your… defect.”

    Self-consciously, Ingo covered his mouth. It was such a minor thing but it caused him no end of grief. The standard wind-up solider was made with a sweet smile. By mistake, Ingo’s smile had been flipped, and he’d been carved with a perpetual frown instead.

    Or: A Nutcracker/Toyland AU where Emmet and Ingo are socially ostracised for being built different.

    Summary

    It’s hard living with the knowledge you exist on borrowed time;
    Well, not exactly; when most use the phrase to refer to a short allotted time period, knowledge of their sudden, uncontrollable event, it is told to them recently, hence of course, the phrase, borrowed time.

    It’s a bit different when you know what that exact event is, the specifics of your mission, but never when it will take you. Therefore of course, your life is borrowed time, making the most of what you have, never aware of when it’s stripped from you.

    It’s a laborious existence.

    What does one do when they know they’re going to disappear? How do you make the most of a life that is never truly yours to control, to keep?

    Well, they forget about it.

    Summary

    After living in Hisui for three and a half years (as part of a clan that lived in cold climates), Ingo had to learn what has to happen when summer ends. He returned to where he belongs on the first warm night of that spring, signaling that summer would soon come, and he’s been recovering relatively well for the last seven or so months. With almost all of his memories back, his family, his job, he knows that things are different now but he still finds himself facing a lot of anxiety as fall goes on. He knows food will not be an issue but his body doesn’t seem to believe him.

    Summary

    When a stranger mysteriously arrives in Hisui with nothing but his clothes and his name, what are its residents meant to think when he's never seen without a frown? But Ingo is much kinder than his expression would suggest, and maybe he doesn't need to smile to be happy.

    Or, five times Ingo's frowns confuse Hisui's residents, and one time he smiles.

    Summary

    Ingo quickly interjected before they could start going at each other, "As you can see, platform changes are necessary for multiple parties. Therefore we should discuss alternative options."

    "Well I think the current order is fine," Gaeric continued to argue. "It's traditional to have the oldest in the middle."

    Or; Ingo attempts to negotiate with his fellow wardens about the current state of their sleeping arrangement. Predictably, it ends in disaster.

    Summary

    In Donatello's world, there were a few constants:

    1: Don't leave leftovers at the table unless you're fine with Leo/Mikey/Raph licking the plate clean.

    2: Every Saturday, you will engage in your thumb war with Leo for eldest twin rights. And you will WIN this time, because a four week losing streak is just embarrassing.

    And 3: Donatello was the most intelligent being to ever live.

    While that may be hubris--Donnie wouldn't deny that--the softshell had examined all the records, taken all the online tests, had even hacked into a few Korean colleges, and as far as Donnie could tell, his brain took the cake.

    Therefore, every decision he made was the inarguable RIGHT DECISION. It was just logic. And, yes, that was including his decision to bring that oozesquito he'd found into his lab for a little studying. The bite he'd gotten was... just an outlier. And besides, nothing had happened. He was already mutated anyway; the mutagen was ineffective.

    Sure, yeah, his health had rapidly declined in the two days since then, but... there was NO WAY that had anything to do with that.

    Because Donnie was smarter than that.

    And everything would be... fine.

    Summary

    Ingo may not remember where he is from but something in his soul certainly remembers, but when you now live in a place where there is a fear of shapeshifters and dangerous doppelgangers the birth of twins starts to become a bad omen.

    Now, as a newly-fledged Warden Ingo must grapple with a challenging decision. Will he conform to the expectations of his clan and follow their established protocols, or will he listen to his own conscience and choose a different path? How will he live with his decision afterwards?

    Summary

    As Arthur stumbled along the empty dirt road, the orange-pink light of the sun slowly growing dimmer and dimmer, he found himself wondering how exactly things came to this.

    His orders? Patrol around Tempo, stop any crimes he sees, report back to HQ if he comes across something bigger than he can handle, then go back home to his roommate and collapse onto the couch while they watch those bad horror movies she always seemed to adore for some reason.

    It was supposed to be simple.

    Why couldn’t it have been simple?

    —————

    OR: When a hero Arthur gets badly injured while on the job, he realizes he needs to find somewhere to hide and tend to his wounds. But with the culprits sure to be on the lookout to finish the job, he finds that there aren't a really lot of places he could go where they wouldn't find him...

    ..Well... perhaps there was one place.

    After all, who would ever expect a hero to ask a supervillain for help?

    Summary

    Emmet, aka the hero Eelektross, had been certain that his brother was dead, and that Smokestack had been the one to kill him. That certainty had lasted until he saw Ingo's face beneath the villain's mask- and now nothing makes sense.

    Summary

    Ingo, aka the villain Smokestack, is thrilled to be able to spend time with Emmet, the brother he no longer remembers. It's revolutionary, how he can be "Emmet's brother" instead of only "Smokestack". Still, Ingo can't help but worry that the ways he's changed or the fact that he’s a villain now will drive Emmet away. But he'll enjoy getting to know his brother again for as long as he's able.

    Emmet, aka the hero Eelektross, is overjoyed to spend time with Ingo, the brother he thought he lost. Even though the whole "hero and villain" thing really complicates matters. Emmet believes wholeheartedly in Ingo's goodness, but reconciling that with how he understands heroics and villainy is no simple task.

    Ingo and Emmet may have carved out a space to share despite the odds, but the peace they've found is fragile. Emmet's secret identity hangs over their heads, and the shadow of the Hero Commission looms.

    Nothing lasts forever, after all.

    Summary

    Silenzio,” Luigi musters a small smile, placing a gloved finger over his brother’s lips. “I’m not going to ask why. Not now. But you have to promise me, Mario, that when all this is done…” Luigi’s voice gains a sharp edge Mario last remembers echoing in the desolation of Sammer’s Kingdom.

    “You tell me everything.” Luigi punctuates the statement by giving Mario’s cheek a light tap. “I won’t break, bro. I promise,” he adds over his shoulder before bounding across the gap between clouds.
