Summary
Ten years ago, everything went wrong. Now, thirty-two year old Dirk Strider sits in his crowded, messy apartment, cutting away pieces of his flawed humanity when an old friend, one Jane Crocker, asks him for a simple favour and a dark past, a terrible mistake, and a promise of a better future all collide in the decaying city of Seattle.
~
This story is set in the Shadowrun (RPG setting) universe using Homestuck characters. It has nothing to do with any of the plots from the RPG books or the games, and when I use Shadowrun terms, I'll do my best to define them if they aren't understood by context alone.Bookmarked by cogentmachinist (ThoughtAndFlow)

Summary
==> BE THE SURVIVOR
Your name is JOHN EGBERT, and you are TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OLD. Six years ago, your entire civilization COLLAPSED within the span of THREE MONTHS, leaving you and your family some of the ONLY SURVIVORS. You managed to stay alive because you had been in CLOSE CONTACT with the thing that would eventually WIPE OUT three-fourths of the human population, and have since used your resources to help any other refugees you find.
Unfortunately, this has given everyone the widespread impression that you have all of the answers to EVERY PROBLEM EVER, which you most certainly do not.

Summary
THE 00 PROJECT is a story about the original 8 kids who are anarchists, working against a corrupt government. To combat these anarchists, the government creates the 00 Project, making eight supersoldier androids, ARs 001 through 008, to personally weed out and kill the usurpers and their sympathizers. The AU focuses on AR 007, (casual name: Hal), who is shocked to discover he is actually based off one of the main eight anarchists, Dirk Strider. This is the story of androids and organics, corrupt agencies, and the anarchists who want to return the country to a humane government.

Summary
Year 2078, United States of America. The U.S. was the leading country in space exploration and research. Hundreds of planets, inside and outside the solar system had been discovered, explored, and even a few had been colonized. The bursting population of Earth demanded outward expansion, and people were encouraged to embrace space travel from a young age.
It had, over the past 15 or so years, become somewhat common in the United States for young people to go off-planet in the summer between their sophomore and junior years of high school. Space Exploration And Research Educational Deployment, or SEARED, was a government run program, facilitating travel, accommodation, and safety for the young astronauts.
The 8 kids from homestuck attend high school together, not all of them friends, some complete strangers to one another. They eventually end up coming together to travel to Alternia through the SEARED program.

"It takes a special kind of foolish pride for a group of humans to consider themselves greater than the Gods."
"It takes a special kind of stubborn stupidity to think that they can be enslaved."

Summary
Davesprite is on a ship filled with people he knows, or used to, at least, and a girl who he possibly killed, or saved, or some variant of the two. She's Rose. She's maybe not his Rose, but she is Rose. And he's maybe not her Dave, but he is. So, he hides in his room, he avoids the world, and quietly watches over his not-Rose when she's not looking.
But then she does.

Summary
Derse has always been a terrible place to live - or so Roxy hears. With a mother acting as advisor to the Black Queen, Roxy has lived a life of nobility, complete with access to magical education and a room with a view from the castle towers. Hers is not the happiest childhood, but politics, at least, are not at the forefront of her worries.
However, when the empress of a defunct wasteland seizes control of the throne, Roxy's comfortable life is upended. She will have to survive being sent hundreds of miles away from her parents, the spread of genocide across a continent, and watching her brother warp from a child too depressed to get out of bed to a militant "prince" of the latest Dersite revolution. Added to these are the trials adolescence brings, including alcoholism, sexuality, and the search for an identity that will distinguish her from the rest of her infamous family members.Prequel, parallel, and sequel to I'll Have My Pound of Flesh Rare.

Summary
“So John brought me up to speed on what happened last night. ‘Says you really helped me out back there.”
You feel a blush sweep across your face. “No, I...”
“So uh, I’m not gonna turn into a werewolf or anything, right?” You don’t miss the tinge of worry in his voice.

Summary
The Dolorosa is glad not to be dead if only so she can feel, for the first time, that she's alive. Alive to suffer and alive to smile; alive to do everything she'd always dreamed she would when they sealed her underground at 18 to await her death and all the things she said goodbye to with the loss of her child.
Alternately, after spending a lifetime tending to others, it's hard to remember what self-preservation feels like. Especially when there's a pirate ship in need of cleaning. But it's a little easier when you think of the fact that the pirate in question is seriously into you.
