    Summary

    Grian snorted despite himself. “How’s the never-ending spiral of engineering hell treating you, then?”

    “Oh, you know,” Joel shrugged with a dramatic sigh. “Sleep-deprived. Caffeine-dependent. Soul slowly eroding beneath mountains of mathematical theorems that I swear are made up. But at least when I graduate, I’ll have a job.”

    Grian flinched theatrically. “Oof. Low blow.”

    Joel raised an eyebrow. “Am I wrong?”

    “No,” Grian admitted, his lips twitching into something crooked. “But at least I’ll have freedom.”

    “Oh yes,” Joel drawled. “The famous freedom of starving artists— living off expired protein bars and making tragic eye contact with neon billboards about ‘success stories’. So liberating.”

    <-OR->

    Grian is a dropout college student desperate to continue his crumbling dreams as an artist - a minority in the fast paced future based society he despises. After being knocked on his ass by an out of control hoverboarder, Grian realises that a morning cup of coffee is the least of his worries now.

    Summary

    The insurmountable sound of the roof caving in, the support beams failing, and the marble decorations shattering around him seemed to stop all at once. There was nothing but silence. Cold, abrupt, threatening silence.

    As quickly as it had begun, the disaster simply ceased.

    “Woah,” an unknown voice chimed, echoing through the rubble. A man smiled down at him, his expression bordering somewhere between surprised and amused. “You’ve caused quite a bit of chaos here, haven’t you?”

    - or -

    After accidentally wreaking havoc inside a temple in the woods, Grian finds himself indebted to a god he doesn't know, as well as a strange man who calls himself the temple's priest.

    Summary

    Hermit’s Hollow was a quiet town where you learned to ignore whisperings of nonsense and the dull, persistent feeling of being watched before you learned to ride a bike. To call it pedestrian would be a great disservice to all the terrible oddities occupying it— folks and legends alike.

    Not that Grian believed any of them, of course.

    Or; There's something wrong in Hermit's Hollow. There's something wrong with Grian. Neither of these are a surprise to him.

    Summary

    The ground beneath Tommy’s feet gives way as he watches the chains slam onto their wrists.

    Something violently breaks inside him. His breath catches in his lungs and he struggles to keep upright.

    “What crimes?” Phil snaps as a muzzle is clipped over Wilbur’s mouth and Techno is forced into a reinforced straight-jacket. “Get the fuck off of me!”

    A trident is placed under Phil’s chin and Tommy can feel his heart shatter.

     

    Or, Tommy is free of the Red Room, only for his past to come knocking, bringing with it more trouble than he could have ever predicted.

    Summary

    Tommy has killed 36 people.

    The weapon in Tommy’s hands does not shake. It is steady, almost impossibly so, and Tommy will not miss his target. This is a fact that he knows. He knows the sun will rise, he knows the tide will leave, he knows he will hit his shot; Tommy is incapable of missing. He is perfect. It's his job to be perfect, and without this job, Tommy is nothing, so his hands are steady. He remembers the names of all 36 people. Not because he feels remorse or guilt, in all honesty, Tommy doesn't think he can feel. He remembers because no one else will. No one but him.

    James Richard. This is a name Tommy will never forget, because, at the very least, he can remember him. At the very least he can remember his name.

    He pulls the trigger.

    37. Tommy has killed 37 people.

    Or

    Tommy is a trained mercenary who hasn't heard anything other than Dream's voice for the past seventeen years of his life.

    Wilbur is worried.
