  1. Summary

    The pupcake fandom on Ao3 has always been a lovely and supportive community, and in these days when many of us are necessarily limiting our real life socializing, that community has become even more vital. So a few of us have banded together to bring you a patchwork of (very) loosely interconnected stories, based on the surrealist drawing/writing game known as exquisite corpse.

    Each author is given just the final sentence from the previous story in the series and from that alone, they construct their own short fic. The stories can be canon era, AU, genre fiction, fluff, angst, smut - whatever the prompt might inspire! Then they pass on their own final sentence and the game continues. There is no set order, and anyone can claim a prompt that strikes their fancy.

  3. Summary

    The note was from sixty years ago. Still, they couldn't help but wonder just who Patsy and Delia were. Even if it would probably be an impossible task, they were going to try to find out.

    This is a series of multiple pupcake writers taking on a prompt inspired by a note found written on the wall under layers of old wallpaper. Happy Pride Month!

    Summary

    Earth was changed. Nuclear fallout devastated the only planet known to harbour life and so the last of humanity survived on the Ark— a space station that housed the descendants of those lucky enough to be in Earth’s orbit when the bombs fell. For those who called the Ark home life was a constant battle between maintaining its systems and hoping that the Earth would one day become habitable again.

    But after more than a century time was running out for the Ark and so one hundred volunteers were sent to the ground in the hopes of discovering if the Earth could sustain human life.

    Lexa was amongst those volunteers. But what she discovered on the ground shook her beliefs to the core and set her on a path of life and death, love and hate.

    Summary

    “Are we… are we okay?”

    “We’re stuck in a nuclear apocalypse, likely a result of my father’s gross negligence, and now used as a playground for an egomaniac’s deranged, power fantasies.”

    “Lena.” Her name is a slow sigh. A patient, painstakingly fragile one at that.

    Lena closes her eyes, inhaling against the torrent of emotions fighting towards a surface she’s not ready to break.

    “Us being stuck here together doesn’t change anything.”

    ---

    Or, Kara and Lena find themselves stranded on a barren Earth where they are forced to work together to survive and finally confront the toxic wasteland their relationship has become.

    Summary

    Takes place right after Part II

     

    On her way back to Jackson, Ellie spends the night in an abandoned little cabin in the woods. If she had known that the cabin would teleport her into a world where the cordyceps doesn't exist and Joel is very much alive, she'd have made a ten mile detour around it.

    But as it is, she's stuck in a modern Jackson now and neither she nor Joel have any idea how to get her back. Ellie has no choice but to confront her demons, and Joel—

    Well, he has a few demons of his own to deal with.
