Summary
Time itself loops back around, back to a time before the cycle was ever a thing.
Fortunately for a few iterators - it brings them along with itself, to a time ages ago.Now Five Pebbles has to deal with being in a world full of bugs, sometimes seeing things he remembered from his old archives - dated to hundreds of thousands of years in the past -placed out and about and used as if they were brand new. He also keeps finding pearls written by NSH, but said iterator? Is nowhere to be found.
Hopefully he can figure out this strange place, and perhaps help heal this fallen kingdom.
After all, it just so happens that the power he used to enlighten beings in the past is enough to cure the strange "infection" that the creatures of this place seem to suffer from.
Well. It's just another task, is it not?(First chapter is the prologue, next ones will be Pebbles Centric and different. I simply wanted to set some lore down I otherwise couldn't.)

to die, to sleep; to sleep- perchance to dream by sleepisforthebeak

Summary
Like sleep, like death, you wake up again.
This does not necessarily mean that waking up gives you back all the pieces you lost along the way.
(Five Pebbles is acting strange, Suns thinks, though can’t quite pin down how. He seems to forget simple things- the projects they were working on naught a few cycles prior, the date. Small things, about their creators, about the laws of the universe.
About the fact that he has the rot, and about the fact that Suns was the one to lead him to it. This, Suns has decided, is not a bad thing.)

What if Kris really did say what was on their mind, that moment by the lake? What would come of it?
What else would be said, once the dam is broken and the words come pouring out?

Slugcats? In MY School?! REVAMPED??? More likely than you'd think... by b1rge
Fandoms: Rain World (Video Game)

Summary
Kayava Academy -- a small school known for its mix of students, ranging from the smallest slugcats to the lankiest scavengers. Watcher, a rather shy and asocial slugcat, is finally returning for 9th grade. Their friends are all here still -- Survivor, Hunter, Monk -- and they're just as excited to reunite with their old friend as Watcher is. Always the observant one, however, Watcher can tell something isn't quite right.
That something is going to change the school -- no, the entire town -- and not for the better.Bookmarked by Soap_stone

Summary
In retrospect, it was probably Zuko’s fault for making a clearly powerful spirit mad. It definitely wasn’t his smartest move, but in his defense, he’d had a long day.
Zuko finds himself in the world of the Dragon Prince and things spiral from there.

It all begins with a thought.
If only we could have gone ourselves, they think, staring at the scar on their messenger’s breast, perhaps things would have turned out for the better.

What if ascension wasn't moving on to a new world, or some kind of different dimension or possibility; what if ascension was the wrong way to describe it?
A "hard restart" would be more apt.

Summary
The Saint has begun yet another excursion, to undo what cannot be undone.
Cultures leave marks on the world. For the ancients, those marks are iterators. While their architecture and memory will fade and allow new life to thrive, their robotic gods do not die easily. The Saint is responsible for dealing with problems like that.
But on their quest to find a few specific collapsed iterators, they find an odd red slugcat. A warmonger, a carnivore, an Artificer. And despite their anger, despite their coldness… Saint cannot help but find something in them.
And perhaps, with his help… she will find something in herself.
It’s an artisaint au!! Saint and arti are going on a journey to find love, and the iterators. And probably the worm pond, eventually. emphasis on AU by the way. Saint has some tricks up his sleeve. :)

Summary
They should be ready.
The thought clattered in his mind as he reluctantly uncurled from his sleeping position. It didn’t suit someone of his station- a king shouldn’t be so feeble, so anxious, especially over a plan he himself hatched.
The Pale King shuddered.
His scales itched and he desperately wished to go back to sleep. If he could avoid this dreadful responsibility for even one more day, he would be a very happy higher being. He couldn’t, of course. Too much depended on his presence, he had to be there when the eggs hatched and he had to light the way for them.
If everything worked, only his light would guide those mindless, soulless vessels to move.________________

Summary
He stared up at the stars. He had always felt drawn toward them, like they were more than just weird glowing things in the sky. Certainly there was more to them when so many littered the darkness.
The moon shone down on Firepaw, his fur becoming a blinding silver with flicks of orange through it as though they were sparks from a fire or stars in his pelt, before returning to normal. Firepaw’s eyes darted around the clearing. Spottedleaf remembered when Featherwhisker announced her apprenticeship. She remembered the spirits of the previous medicine cats surrounding her. She remembered the awe and the fear. She remembered the cheers of the spirits mixing with the cheers of her clan.
Firepaw was to be the next Thunderclan healer.

Summary
Five Pebbles was pretty sure his story was coming to an end, alone in the snow, covered by his collapsed superstructure with no way out.
The world, however, gave him a second chance in the form of a weird green thing that seemed to...
...Throw him back in time?
Now with memories of freezing cold and information on how to not only fix the rot, but also fix Moon as well, he promised himself he would do whatever he could to never have to relive this awful cold all alone.
The isolation, cold, pain, and hundreds of thousands of cycles worth of thinking made him dead set on never going through that ever again. Even if that meant ripping off his umbilical before that could ever happen.In the meantime... The rest of the local group is confused. After all, the Pebbles they knew was a pretensious jerk who killed Moon then cut all communications, but the one that came back to them was a paranoid mess who seemed to space out every few minutes.
...How odd.Series
