    Summary

    The strings the Fates weave are fragile things. They break so easily, and that's why they're kept hidden away. Those strings have foretold, who gets to live, who deserves to die, and everything in between.

    All the strings the Fates have ever spun are secured within their rooms.

    All except for two.

    Summary

    Her fingers dig into his shoulder, his robes bunching in her grip as a sob crawls out of her throat. It hurts, tugging at the wound, but she can't stop it.

    “Where is he, A-Cheng?”

    “I killed him, A- Jie. I killed Wei Wuxian,” he sobs, animal and broken.

    Yanli screams, loud and long and heavens it hurts. Worse than any pain she's ever had from her heart. Worse than loosing mother and father. Worse than birthing A Ling. Worse than mourning Zixuan. She screams.
    ~*~

    In the wake of Wei Wuxian's death, Jiang Yanli must navigate the difficult waters between love and forgiveness.

    Summary

    The night Tommy disappeared, it went like this:

    Tubbo screamed the words that became his goodbye. He can’t accept that Tommy is gone, because that would be accepting that the last words they exchanged were angry and intended to hurt. So he doesn’t accept it. He’ll search for years if he has to.

    Techno let Tommy leave without so much as trying to stop him. He’s replayed the memory of that night and wished he’d done anything else, until he thinks the guilt might be enough to destroy him. He thinks he might already be on his way there.

    And Quackity can’t help but feel like this is all just a bitter echo. This town is cursed, and Tommy is only its latest victim.


    ( the small town horror au where tommy goes missing and it all goes downhill from there! )
