Summary
An ongoing series of oneshots, featuring most prominently: Gaster being a phenomenal father, Grillby being the absolute best unofficial stepdad, a trio of mischievous skeletons, two dorks in love, a few insecurities, a handful of maladaptive coping mechanisms, domestic fluff, and an overabundance of affection because that's all I'm physically capable of writing at any point ever.

Summary
Grillby is used to bullying Gaster into not overworking himself, and most of the time, Gaster is (grudgingly) grateful for it. But when the king wants a job done—well, that job had better be done, no matter how hard Gaster has to push himself. Needless to say, royal orders of that caliber piss Grillby off.

Summary
Gaster is a small god. Grillby had known that the moment he’d waltzed into the nightclub for the first time—he carried himself with the quiet confidence that so few monsters have. He walks with the manner of a monster who knows he’s going to get where he wants to be and need not do anything else to ensure he gets there. If someone gets in his way, he has only to give them a sharp word or a sour look to send them scurrying. If he’s in a particularly crass mood, he might resort to shoving, but Grillby is under no delusions that he needs to shove. If he wants his way through, he’ll have it, and he’ll have it with ease. Grillby's small god manages every inch of his universe with impeccable control.
Gods, but it’s fun to shake that control up, sometimes.

Summary
Ninety-nine percent of the time, Gaster isn’t a possessive person. He’s secure in the knowledge that no one would risk taking anything from him, nor presume to so much as brush against his possessions, without his explicit permission. One of the many perks, he supposes, of being the Royal Scientist.
The other one percent of the time, he’s at Grillby’s.

Summary
Five days. That’s how long Gaster has been gone, lost, missing in action—five days. That’s how long Asgore has been amassing troops to find him. That’s how long Toriel has been pleading with the humans for their Royal Scientist’s life, should he be found behind their lines. That’s how long Grillby has been running himself ragged, burning his way through battalions and barricades and bunkers.
The sixth day, Grillby finds him.

Summary
Your name is Karkat Vantas and you're going to die in three sweeps. You've come to (very bitter) terms with this, but your moirail has not. The solution? Immigrate illegally to Earth, home of your hatefriends, and join an unsavory gang that may or may not be constructing a highblood army against the will of the Alternian Empire. (In the meantime, you will also integrate yourself into a clade, pity your moirail to world's end, and discover that you're never as trapped as you think you are—especially when there are people who love you.)

Summary
“I know, but it’s not—just that. I want to be able to trust you to tell me when you’re hurt, when you need me to be careful. And I just feel like—” You spread your hands helplessly. “You don’t know how to do that. You get hurt and unless you’re bleeding to death it’s just like, ‘oh, Karkat, it’s fine’ and ‘oh, Karkat, don’t worry about it, it’s just a bruise, just a scrape, just a cut, it doesn’t matter.’ And it does. It does matter, Dave. I want to know when you’re hurt. I want to know about the bruises and scrapes and cuts, not just the fucking—impalings, or disembowelings. The little hurts are just important to me as the big ones."
Beside you, Dave is quiet—the arm around your waist is tense. When you glance at him, he won’t meet your eyes. He must be yearning for his shades. “I—Karkat.” He lets out a soft breath. “Shit, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to make you feel like I didn’t trust you. I do. I just—oh, boy. Are we having a therapy session right now? Are we doing this? For realsies?”

Summary
While away from home on a training trip with his city's threshecutioner troop, Karkat finds himself missing his moirail. (Or, the one wherein there's a full pesterlog dedicated to the pale equivalent of cybersex between two sappy moirails.)

Summary
Karkat wants to make his palemate happy in the pile this morning. Cue the kink. (Essentially, Karkat loves on Gamzee for two thousands words because Gamzee deserves nice things.)

Summary
After a bad night training with the threshecutioner cadets, Karkat craves his moirail's attention. Instead of simply communicating his needs, he decides to employ some rather unorthodox methods to get Gamzee to notice his distress. Gamzee responds accordingly. (Or, the one in which Karkat wallows in self-loathing and decides to break the rules like the tiny badass he is, and Gamzee demonstrates, very firmly, why that's not a good idea.)

Summary
Karkat and Gamzee set about constructing their adult hive on a (relatively) peaceful Alternia. Whilst Karkat bickers with a carpenter droid and sets about roofing a greenhouse (the polycarbonate isn't going to hammer itself, damn it), Gamzee goes to work on a brand-new block. (Because clearly, the one thing Karkat Vantas needed in his life was the pale version of a concupiscent sex dungeon.)

Summary
He sees the monster for the first time when he’s three and climbing up the sun-warmed plastic slide at Clarkston Park. It is a shadow in and of itself, but with none of the give-and-take grace of the natural shadows he sees around him. This event is the start of the clawing, desperate thing that is Tim Wright’s life—and he’s not quite sure he’s going to be able to survive, because things just keep getting worse.

Summary
“Then there’s Princey. He always wants to go haring off after these impossible, grandiose dreams.”
“Like breaking the Queen’s Stone, stealing all of her power, and freeing the entire kingdom from a rule that’s lasted well over five centuries?”
“Yeah,” Anxiety said. “Like that.”
After (grudgingly) attempting to overthrow the monarch of his country, Anxiety finds himself the sole survivor of a curse that takes Thomas and the other sides away from him. To make matters worse, he’s trapped in a tower with his own self-loathing and cowardice, and he finds himself guarded by an unusually polite dragon. What’s a guy supposed to do?
Break out of the tower, finish overthrowing the monarchy, and save Thomas and the other sides. Obviously. (Ugh. He really doesn’t feel good about this.)Series
