Summary
Nightmare stopped asking Error to work for him years ago.
After all those refusals, Error's sudden acceptance comes as a surprise—especially when Nightmare agrees on the condition that he remains free to leave whenever he wishes.
What Error doesn't expect is to discover that sometimes, being given the freedom to leave is precisely what makes him want to stay.

Summary
Error wakes up in a game he never chose to play—Until The Last Breath, a brutal survival world hidden between life and death. The only players? People trapped in comas. The only way out? Win.
To survive, he must fight through deadly floors, forge uneasy alliances, and follow three unbreakable rules:
[ 1. GAME OVER means death, both in-game and in real life. ]
[ 2. Artifacts must be crafted from Fragments found throughout the world by a Player. ]
[ 3. Reach the final floor before the chronometer runs out… or fade away forever. ]
There are no second chances. No resets. Just the questions: can Error and his team beat the game before it beats them—and can love survive in a world designed to tear everything away?

Summary
Nightmare rescued Killer from a dying universe without giving much thought to what would happen afterward. Now Killer lives in his castle, disrupting centuries of carefully cultivated solitude with his emotions, his bad jokes, and an unfortunate tendency to get lost.
When Nightmare discovers how Killer has been passing the time, curiosity gets the better of him.
After all, Nightmare has lived for centuries without ever understanding intimacy.
Perhaps it's time he learned.

Summary
One mission. Four people. Four truths that cannot all be true. They march the same road, spill the same blood, and return to the same leader. Yet each of them believes they walked a different path.
The mission never changes.
Only the eyes through which it is seen.

Summary
In a society where becoming a Host is considered a disease, fifteen-year-old Nightmare learns what it means to become one.
After an encounter with a dormant Parasite leaves him sharing his mind and body with an unseen being, Nightmare is diagnosed, isolated, and taught to suppress the voice in his head—no matter the cost.
As his condition worsens and the strain between Host and Parasite pushes them both towards collapse, Nightmare is forced to confront a possibility no one prepared him for: that the problem may not be the Parasite, but the way he's been taught to survive it.

Summary
A single forbidden kiss should’ve ended at guilt—instead, it awakened a hunger neither Cross nor Dream can quiet.
Haunted by the taste of each other, they meet in stolen moments, navigating sin, devotion, and the dangerous warmth blooming between them.
In a multiverse that wants them apart, desire becomes their rebellion—
and the honeyed temptation becomes impossible to resist.

Summary
Nightmare has grown weary of the constant strife between himself and his brother. Every time he manages to fuel the ever-persistent need for negativity in his system, Dream and his friends immediately sap it out of him.
So, Nightmare has decided he was done. If they believed the multiverse was better without negativity, he was okay with that. He'd well descended past apathy years ago.

This is really sad. Even if I'm like Killer with angst (feel nothing as I read this), this story is really good.
This story might even inspire me for a fic (yes, it's that good).

Summary
Cross finds himself responsible for the death of his universe. After years in the white unending void, his tears summon Nightmare, who brings him back to the Castle.
It’s the aftermath of a more brutal XTale au, where Cross deals with PTSD and OCD, while trying to make a place for himself in the gang. It’s difficult, when you make mistakes left and right.

Summary
An Alternative Multiverse after years in a lost broken universe called DreamTale, who’s only inhabitant is a stone skeleton child named Dream. Who’s been trapped in stone, cursed, and abandoned by his brother Nightmare.
Instead of Ink finding Dream it's Error who finds him first—a child who’s whole world is morphed and twisted to the point it's unrecognizable, who’s lost everything. Dream has nothing, and Error is the only one he has now. Meanwhile Error has no idea at all how to raise a child (not that he can recall) who has just about as many issues as his own, and now he is...this childs...new owner? Roommate? Provider? Guardian?? Foster parent??? Father???? Stepfather?????
"YeAh, nO."

Summary
A great source of despair draws Nightmare to an abandoned AU. There he finds an unfinished Sans with no name, no companions, no purpose, no world, and a soul. Nightmare gives him the option to get out of his abandoned, empty world. He accepts the offer but refuses to destroy anything or hurt people. Instead he finds another purpose. In return the Bad Sanses give him a home, companions, a life, and a name. They call him Ink.
Or: Before he can destroy his soul and enter the Doodle Sphere, Ink is recruited by Nightmare. He accepts his role as best he can, even if he sometimes feels like he is meant for something more.
