    Summary

    At first, the world only knew Winter, then Spring was born from a lonely wish, soon followed by Summer and Autumn. The deities then came together to lend their powers to the mortals, allowing the chosen Agents to bring forth the seasons in their stead. A truth the world has known for millennias.

    Ten years ago, a group ideologically against the Agents, insurgents, cut down the bringers of Winter and Summer, somehow banishing both seasons from the land since. The villages charged with raising and protecting these gods incarnate searched high and low for the next generation of Agents, finding no sign. But they had to be out there, so they endured, land and people both praying that fate would bring them back safe and sound.

    Somewhere, in a hidden base, a young cowpoke discovered a child who made ice flowers in the palm of their hand.

    A meeting by chance that led to events no one knew they'd set off.

    TLDR: Cocoapowder roadtrip to bring Winter back, which is more convoluted than it should be

    Summary

    Asriel looked out the back of his dad’s pickup to watch the last building of his little Hometown get swept up into the forest around them.

    Starting today, he was a student of Hailfall University. It was a weird feeling, knowing he was no longer going to be thought of alongside his mom, dad, or Dess on rare occasion.

    But it would be fine! Surely, Asriel would get used to it like all the other changes life threw.

    It was just college.

    He didn’t expect to be mugged on the first day.

    TLDR: Asriel goes to college, and befriends Deltarune’s versions of the fallen humans, + UTY, cause of course.

    Summary

    Guess who just had a poetry unit in school!

    And guess who decided to write it all in character POV, just cause!

    I was curious if I stripped all symbolism from the rainbow, how characters would describe their feelings.

    Characters sign the work at the end, most of it is Frisk's though.

    Summary

    The last anyone saw the prince was when he was five, running out of the palace to everyone's dismay.

    All they found after the flood were a few clothes, his chama, and two Fallen children.

    No one's partially happy about this, especially Chara. But they must carry on.

    Summary

    Being the ruling monarchs of Sopela, Asgore and Toriel allowed themselves a few days away from the office's responsibilities.

    Normally they'd just wander and mingle with their people.

    This month they found a baby.

    Summary

    Staring up at the King to blearily smile at him.
    Angrily watching the golden flowers grow red with blood.
    Eyes slipping shut after a long, painful fight.
    Collapsing to the street with the prayer of bought time.
    Tripping with nowhere left to run.
    Seeing blossoms fall over a scene for the last time.
    They were supposed to die, their stories thrown to the whims of history.
    But they refused, the books reopening after years to add new chapters to the tales.

    TLDR: a semi-anthology of one-shots about the Souls, their rebirth, and adjustments to their new lives.

    Summary

    No one asked for this outcome.

    No one wanted to be trapped, separated from the world for fourteen years.

    No one in the situation believed it would last forever.

    So, what do you do when you're aware of the timer above you? You make the best of it, or you run.

    TLDR: the Amalgamate Experience from the POV of its luckiest members: Kanako, Posey, and Doctor Alphys.

    Summary

    The Rains. A week-long torrential storm that has plagued the mountainous area of Ebott Territory ever since the Battle of Storms three centuries ago. For some, it’s a nuisance, the only options being to stay inside or travel and hope you don’t get soaked. For others, it’s a respite, a break from school and work, a chance to make memories with family or catch up on that personal to-do list they’d been neglecting.

    For Kris, it was a chance for uninterrupted solitude, to think or talk without anyone else’s influence or opinion. Going to Be’heta stage in Nyota Plaza and just camping out has been a blessing for them these last five years. Peace to do whatever or have an episode without anyone caught in the crossfire. Something they’d really like to have this year, given the whole ‘monsters are real’ situation that Ebott’s now handling.

    They weren’t expecting two monsters to be waiting under the tarp.

    TLDR: Susie, Noelle, and Kris' first meeting in the Battle Scars AU

    Summary

    Dahlia looked to the calendar and sighed, “De years seem to pass quicker and quicker—huh, Clover?”

    With practiced ease, she pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil to write her dear, late friend. This time of year always brought a melancholic feeling to the woman, searching for words to describe the highlights as part of her reached for memories that got foggier year after year. Clover’s face was no longer clear in her mind’s eye.

    Dahlia told herself that’s just what comes with age, but it did nothing to lift her mood. Only recounting the latest thing to catch her interest did that, and after an hour of hemming and hawing, Dahila signed the letter with love like she had for most of the time since Clover took that final hike. Moving over to the small shrine she made for him and his father, she opened the drawer below and slipped the pages onto the stack of letters all starting with ‘Dear Clover’.

    “Happy anniversary, Honey.” Dahlia whispered as she closed the drawer. Sighing once more as a finger wrinkled the yellow and blue polka-dotted scarf at her neck, “Please watch over me—wherever ya are…”

    With that, Dahlia checked the time, pulled on her boots, and left the apartment for her librarian shift.

    Summary

    The world is unfair. It is cruel. And being Quirkless is a curse, one that makes the poor soul fragile and useless in society.

    Those are fed to everyone and treated as truth, held up as the three unbreakable rules of the world.

    Now watch as these Quirkless kids take those words and tear them apart till they’re nothing but ash and dust, running to their dreams with their devils on their tail.

    TLDR: an anthology of one-shots of Quirkless kids in the From a Different Angle world

    Summary

    Iwa should tell someone, right?
    For months, Suisho, his foster sister, has been telling him all sorts of things about Quirks—strong Quirks, weak Quirks, villainous Quirks—that are completely false behind Ms. Niwa’s back. Especially about Quirkless people.
    Quirkless does not mean ‘weak’ or ‘useless’. Quirkless does not mean they are a punching bag. Suisho doesn’t know what she’s talking about.
    But who should Iwa tell, who would believe him outside of his friends?

    Solace would, likely. He just needed to speak…

    Summary

    Taking the long way home, two girls meet that never should have.

    One a future blood-obsessed villainess.

    And the other a Quirkless Hero-Hopeful on death’s doorstep.

    The butterfly’s wings flap as this chance meeting sends them on wildly different paths than was planned.

    TLDR: What if Toga didn’t snap that day? What if she met the person she needed sooner? What if they both changed each other for the better?

    Or: the author read Tea in a bar, and now curiosity has gripped her mind.
