Summary
Sometime during their unstoppable descent into the realm of the damned, it became apparent to V1 that they are merely a chess piece, moving at the hands of an unseen player; one that is swiftly closing in on the other for a resounding checkmate. At the very end of Hell, Gabriel loses his final match with the machine that unwittingly broke the shackles he had noticed far too late.
Rather than putting an end to his existence, V1 instead takes the opportunity to shatter the board and stop the game.
In the aftermath, both machine and archangel are left standing in the settling dust of the collapsed echelons of creative order. But a scorched earth isn't always the end. Something will eventually grow from the ashes of utter destruction, if given the chance.

Jade Shadows AU: If only Stalker asked the Drifter for help by CardinalGoldenbrow
Fandoms: Warframe
07 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
Stalker, sitting sadly by Jade's bedside, knowing she needs help, and stewing in his hatred for the Tenno anyway. "No one can help me.”
Hunhow: "Have you considered that you know a guy with the same Void Powers as the Tenno who didn't help murder the Empire you're still misguidedly loyal to?”
Stalker: "...Huh.”
Chapters 1-18: the “If only Stalker asked Drifter for help, but Jade still died” story that mostly follows along the events of canon but explores additional character growth.
Chapters 1-9, 19-38: the “If only Stalker asked Drifter for help, and Jade lived” story that focuses more on developing Jade and Sorren’s relationship. Because, well, actions have consequences.
