    Summary

    Stanley loves to dance, he really does! He just doesn't like doing it in front of other people or by himself. So after his friends convince him to go to an event just for dancing, there's gotta be someone in the crowd he could ask. Right?

    Summary

    After months of planning and scheming, Stanley has almost reached the inner circle of the Mind Control Facility - enough that he might be able to spring the Narrator from his prison before he's put through a simulated thirteen-billion-year torture that neither of them are sure he'll come back from.

    However, the Narrator abruptly goes silent, and Stanley is pretty sure he's too late.

    Summary

    Stanley wakes up to a feeling that is not quite right. He's unwell for the first time in the Parable, but that isn't possible... unless there's a glitch in the system that needs to be fixed. Unsure of how to deal with this developmental error, Stanley and the Narrator are thrown into the decision of a lifetime: To keep things as they are, and let the game crumble... or to rewrite the code and lose their entire history?

    Summary

    Stanley had lost count of how many times they'd done this.

    "Two hundered and sixty-five"
    The Narrator supplied with a sigh.

    Stanley jumped off the moving platform, not bothering to close his eyes as he hit the ground with a sickening thud.

    Two hundered and sixty-six.

    Summary

    "Carrying the light atmosphere from the office, Stanley found himself so relaxed, as he was never before, drowning in comfortable silence. He realized that perhaps if all of the iterations would look like that, he would never complain about repetition. Yes, even if they would say the exact same sentances and retrace all the same steps - he could never get bored of it. He would chose the same life every single time if it would mean being here again.
    Maybe it was never about the routine, after all. "

    Stanley complains about the story and Narrator tries to understand why. They both go through the story together, basically.

    Summary

    Their life was simple, domestic, romantic even. The Parable is a distant memory now, the two having long escaped. And Stanley was mostly comfortable. And Stanley was warm. And Stanley was at ease. And Stanley was happy.

    Almost.

    Or

    Stanley and the Narrator want to spend the rest of their lives together in romantic, domestic bliss. Stanley is inspired.

    Stanley figures that he either works for a corporation that doesn’t care about him or he works for an evil man that loves him.

    His morals have always been skewed, anyways.

    Summary

    He felt, well, cold. Yes, in the temperature sense, but also in a different way. His hands were the least of his worries when it felt like the chill was coming from inside him. This hollow, cavernous feeling that sat like an overfilled balloon in his chest. But his chest wasn’t quite the right place, it was somewhere far more unreachable between his diaphragm and his ribs, lost in the space between his heart and his spine. It was as if the smallest shard of ice had made its home in this vulnerable and unknowable place. But, there was no time to linger on such a small little space - and he was certain The Narrator would only tolerate his lack of story progression for so long, so Stanley continued out of his office.

    or

    Stanley is really lonely and The Narrator wants to fix that.

    Summary

    Stanley has a chokehold over the Narrator in the way a car crash has a chokehold over its bystanders. Stanley has a certain je ne sais quoi that is thus far baffling even the most eccentric of the Narrator’s existing thespian friends. Stanley has brown hair, and brown eyes, and a face that’s bland at a glance, and a good few inches over the Narrator (although most people do, so this isn’t much to comment on).

    Stanley has many things, likely including some kind of a neurodivergence, and likely not including a fear of any god.

    Today, he also has a bucket.


    The Narrator is a director. Stanley is an actor. The Bucket is a bucket, but it’s so much more than that.

    In which the Narrator meets the most fascinatingly boring thespian that anyone’s ever seen, and Stanley causes mayhem, as Stanley is wont to do.

    Summary

    It was all so different now. So wonderfully different, almost overwhelmingly so despite the countless days that had passed since the cycle had been broken.

    Oh, he could go to the park, watch a movie, get lunch, even go back to bed if he wanted to. There was just so many choices now-

    "He barely knew where to begin."
