Summary
Once upon a time, there was a young king who bore the weight of three generations’ sins, and learned to carry it anyway.
Sometimes when the gold-sickness quieted down, Thorin asked about his sons. Tried to remember what it felt like to be a father. But Balin never told him where the council sent his sons to.
For their own safety, the old advisor said. So the curse cannot touch them. So they can grow up free of this gold-poison.
And Thorin, who had seen what three generations of hunger had built, who had watched his grandfather die and his father vanish, and who bore the beast marks on his own body, learned to accept that perhaps his sons were better off without him.But he never stopped hoping for the day he might break the curse.
Never stopped dreaming of the day he might reclaim Erebor and drive out the dragon his family had made.
Never stopped hoping that one day, he’d see his sons again—and maybe they wouldn’t see a monster.

Summary
He entered Ithaca as a beggar, and everything goes according to plan, until it doesn't.
Odysseus was delayed by twenty minutes.
Surely that will not change anything too drastically, right?

Summary
One day Odysseus will die and he will meet with his mother again in the Underworld. This is what I imagine a reprise could be for I Can't Help But Wonder, only instead of Odysseus and Telemachus, it's Odysseus and Anticlea

Chishiya was having a bad few days. He backstabbed everyone at the beach, got his ass kicked as a result, almost got blown up by a grenade, Arisu was refusing to look him in the eyes anymore, and Niragi was not actually dead
Then, to top it all off, they joined a game. Just what he needed. A game about sharing his feelings.

I knew who I was this morning, but I have changed a few times since then by Viablemess

Summary
Tldr: a very disjointed but related collection of Arisu/Chishiya stories.
Alice in Borderland has become my comfort show thus i will continue my trend of writing my feelings, mental not-great-days, and what i would like to see into these fics. I write for myself and for the process, not the product. So, expect typos and for my stuff to not be beta-ed. While i do not explicitly take requests, if someone has an ides that they would like to share with me and i like it, odds are i will incorporate it somewhere. Essentially, Arisu/Chishiya stories deserve more affection here. I adore Usagi and there will be NO usagi bashing in my stories cause she is an icon. I just didn't get much chemistry between her and Arisu (the vibe in my head is siblings / best friends). My stories may be read together or as individual snippets. I'll mention in the notes if previous info from other fics is beneficial, but it will never be required. As of right now, this series does not have an end and ill continue poking at it till the muse needs a break. Happy reading.
Series title is from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking Glass.
