    Summary

    "Truly, I should just let the hope that there’s any chance of me not being shat upon by the powers that be wither and die already.”
    Karkat finally seems to run out of breath long enough to realize that his long-winded, if technically accurate tirade isn’t really making your current situation any better.
    Truthfully, if anything it will only serve to demoralize the already tenuous positivity your group has managed to glean about your future prospects of survival.
    You don’t really have a lot to spare as it is.
    As it stands, the fridge that has apparently just popped into existence in the middle of your village is quite foreboding.

    Summary

    The Truth is this: a Toll is always paid, Something is always gained, and Death is always the end.

    Sometimes, people refuse to pay their dues.

    But the Truth will out.

    ---

    When Edward Elric uses alchemy to save his own life in a collapsed mine shaft, Truth drags him before the Gate and makes him an offer he cannot refuse.

    He still resents the fact Truth grouped him with thirteen years old wizards in a magic school, though.

    Summary

    Ed was stuck at this table with this toad and he was empathetically not pleased. The pink thing was simpering at him, making pointed comments about his intelligence and breeding. Ed would have strangled the bitch if he hadn’t already given his bodily control over to Truth as soon as he’d sat down.

    (Truth had a thing about getting to pick what food they wanted at lunch, something about getting the full experience, and Ed was, for once, glad he’d obliged because Truth’s neutral continence was the only thing keeping his limbs steady.)

    “Of course,” she said sweetly, “If I was the teenage professor of a useless branch of washed-out magic, I suppose my qualifications wouldn’t have to be very high either, would they?”

    And their fork snapped in half.

    “What,” Truth breathed with Ed’s mouth, no accent at all, “did you just call my subject?”

    --

    Edward Elric bodyshares with an eldritch horror and reluctantly agrees to teach alchemy to ickle snot-nosed wizards. Naturally, it's a disaster.

    Summary

    Before the war, Camp was a happy place. Despite all the danger they faced on a daily basis, at least they were together. Many of them had come from bad families, or were forced to leave their homes due to the monsters dogging their every step. But at camp they had built a new life for themselves, they were a family against all the odds. And no matter what threat faced camp, they were all willing to fight tooth and nail to keep their home, and their family, safe.

    Or... a retelling of the Percy Jackson series from the perspective of the other campers. From the laid back days before the events of The Lightning Thief, through the darkest days of The Last Olympian.

    Chapters 12-23: the lightning thief
    Chapters 24-42: Sea of monsters

    Summary

    Spoilers for Gachiakuta Manga!

    “Whoda thought rage baitin’ you outta that well would mean finding the perfect sadist for myself?”

    “Don’t call me that.”

    “Stop denying the truth. It’s just us—and it ain’t like I’m gonna judge ya, man.”

    Enjin isn’t the reason Zanka crawls out of that well he’d dropped himself into. A pain loving freak is.

    Or, a what if scenario where Jabber finds Zanka first, and how it changes them both.
