Summary
The first cage he finds has a sign on it.
It’s made out of old driftwood and it reads: “Deadly! Do not open!”
Stan reads it a few times. The words have been written with red paint which has smeared across the sign in a few places. The writing is hasty and barely legible, as if it was done in a moment of great hurry or panic. The red paint and the occasional splatters make it look like blood and the numbness in Stan’s brain recedes long enough for him to snort a derogatory laugh and roll his eyes.
His brother can be so dramatic.
**********
After the portal incident, Stan frees all of Ford's specimen. He thinks that's the end of it.
He couldn't have been more wrong.

Summary
Stanley Pines would not describe his life as 'tragic'. That required a certain level of dignity that the universe refused to allow him. So really, this was par for the course. The least he can do is laugh about the whole thing. It’s a shame nobody else seems to agree with him.

Summary
Stanford and Stanley Pines, freshly sixteen, are flung forward into 1983 after fighting over a half-broken time tape that neither of them wanted to be fighting over. Their relationship, usually so concrete, had begun to strain - and the argument over the time machine gets out of hand. The future is not what either of them expects to find.
Stanford, stranded in New Mexico and utterly alone, finds himself out of his depth when he comes across a much older version of his brother who is homeless and struggling to make ends meet.
Stanley, stranded in Oregon and burned by the broken time tape, has his worst fears confirmed when he finds an older version of his brother who is driven to the brink by paranoia and forces unknown.
----
There are mentions of sex at various points, but no explicit descriptions. There is, however, lots of violence. This is a story about trauma & a bond between brothers, explored in a timestuck format.

Summary
Izzy looks over at Stede, gingerly attempting to coo at a cat that hates him while she shreds his expensive, fancy slippers to pieces. His heart aches in a new and terrible way that has nothing to do with Ed, for once. ‘If you’re sure.’
The smile Stede gives him is warm, a weighty significance to it that Izzy doesn’t know how to read. ‘I am.’
Or, Izzy finds himself at the centre of the ocean's weirdest found family, and acquires two boyfriends along the way.
