  3. Summary

    Post-TOTK, with the Chain finally re-linked, some poor fools slowly start to realize that Wild has somehow, impossibly, blasted past peak-gremlin to land on the moon. Something that, disconcertingly, he might actually be able to do now

  4. Summary

    Basically a rewritten season 2, keeping all the crucial plot details -- but with the small alteration of one Ben Hargreeves having been resurrected during the flee from 2019.

    Expect all the usual Umbrella Academy gloriousness; namely sibling bonding, Ben and Diego being mother hens, my darling emotionally repressed murder child having a hard time showing feelings, all the found family, lots of hugging and crying (and being repressed about crying) and general wonderfulness that this glorious show does such a good job with.

    I've got a whole lot to live up to with this!

  5. Summary

    A series of fics exploring season 3, (while it's still airing, so things may end up becoming not canon) these wonderful characters whom i adore so much, and featuring a ton of hurt/comfort, marcanne, and deep dives into psychological states :)

    These fics can be read as standalone; but they all take place in the same timeline, so i'd reccomend reading them all :)

    Summary

    Irontomb no longer exists, or maybe it never existed at all. Amphoreus greets the universe beyond the skies, broken but determined to see the real future on the horizon.

    It's a happy ending, but Phainon feels as if the entire world is falling on top of him like rocks, as if he's drowning in the sudden reality of it all like a sailor lost at sea.

    So he makes the only choice he can think of: he runs away.

    A ragtag group of Crysos Heirs and two experts on interstellar travels follow him.

    Summary

    “Mydei. Mydei, it’s me. Phainon!”

    At that, Mydei’s lip curled from its frown into the slightest, lazy smile and hope sparked in Phainon’s chest. Of course Mydei would recognise him even like this. So long as Mydei knew the truth, he could contact Cipher or Anaxa and surely their individual specialisations would be able to—

    “You are a noisy one, aren’t you?” Mydei teased.

    Ah. That was a bit of an issue. Mydei didn’t recognise him after all. That was fine. A minor setback really. Phainon had overcome worse odds before. He could do it again! Even in the body of a chimera.

    Through a bit of Zagreus’ trickery attached to a mirror, Phainon takes on the appearance of a chimera and spends the day with Mydei. Despite how humiliating it is, Phainon is relieved that no one can understand him and figure out his true identity while he waits to return to normal.

    After all, only people who receive a blessing of Cerces can understand chimera speech. And no one else. Right?

    Summary

    Summary:

    For what felt like an eternity, Phainon could feel only a complete void with a side dish of sorrow.
    Inside his mind, he floated between what remained of Amphoreus and the absolute nothing.

    People said that when you reach the end of your lifetime, every memory begins to flow — letting you face, one last time, all your sweetest moments and every little regret.

    For him, the biggest one was the doubt of having failed them.

    Phainon and Mydei wake up on the Astral Express along with the other Crysos Heirs. They are alive, real, and completely clueless.
    The battle is over and the cycles are gone, but for them surviving is only the beginning.
    Now they have to learn what it actually means to live… and to face everything neither of them ever dared to confront when death felt inevitable.

    Summary

    There was a glimpse of white and splashes of colour but not much more until the moment the bag fell away to the ground. It was a pillow. A long one. With the image of a person laying, rather provocatively, on the front—and the back, Phainon noted when Mydei turned it to inspect both sides—while their white hair splayed around their head and their blue eyes and outstretched hand beckoned the onlooker to join them in bed—

    “It’s you.”

    Phainon choked as Mydei’s eyes flicked from the drawn image of a man, to Phainon and back again.

    During their off-planet trip to Planarcadia, Cipher scrounges up an interesting piece of fan-made merchandise as a gift for Mydei.

    Phainon does not approve.

    Summary

    “May I know my host’s name?”

    “Audata of Aedes Elysiae. I live with my husband, Hieronymus, and my son, Phainon.” 

    Aedes Elysiae. Gorgo had never heard of such a place. It must have been beyond the bounds or ambitions of Kremnos. 

    She tried for a smile and playful bounce of the bundle in her arms. “I am known as Gorgo. This is my son, Mydeimos.” 

    She was no longer ‘of Castrum Kremnos’. Certainly not its queen nor an esteemed warrior and not even the lowest of trainees. She was of nowhere. Nothing but a wanderer in exile.

    When Eurypon allows Gorgo to decide the means of her demise, she chooses to accompany her newborn son into the River of Souls.

    Rather than a sea of flowers or eternal battlefield, they wash ashore in Aedes Elysiae.
