Summary
“You can’t see me,” Scar said like it was obvious. Because it was. “But I can see you.”
“Can you see you?”
A simple question. One that, had anyone else asked it, Scar would’ve laughed. A rehearsed gasp from a diverse and ever-expanding repertoire. But Cleo just stared at him. Scar stared back. Shriveling under the realization that this was how others felt looking at him. When he pressed fingers to his temple and pretended to know anything more than a stranger’s septic thoughts.

Summary
I just think the Freeling's deserve a good snowball fight and to work some stuff out. Aka, The Family Ever gets snowed in for a week, what could go wrong!
----
"The sun had long since dipped below the mountain dappled horizon, as it did far too early this time of year. Dishes were being scrubbed, blenders quickly hidden in air vents, ghosts whispered between themselves. The Residents of the Undervale settled in for the night, stirring and yammering together, a distant and quiet hope buzzed in the heads of the children under the old, decaying roof. The weather forecast predicted a wintery storm. a middle schooler’s dream. Small flakes began to dust over the hotel, settling in the roof tiles and stick slicked to the frigid windows.“Moooooom” Esther sat on a kitchen counter, kicking her feet against the cupboard idly.
The room still smelled like dinner, and the oven was still hot. The counters could use a wipe down, but, eh, Katherine had a lot to do, maybe Ben would clean it? They’d made pizza. Abaddon probably still had some flour stuck to him. The boy did not understand how to handle raw dough."

Summary
It was reaping day.
William Wisp and Summer Dileo were the tributes representing district 3. And in just a few minutes, after they shook hands and parted ways, they'd have only minutes to tell their families goodbye before they were sent off to the Capitol.
And he knew, deep in his gut, that nobody was going to raise their hand, and volunteer to take their places.
Because why would they?
-
“District 3 isn't going to have a winner this year.” David said, and though his voice was cold, it was also strangely intense. “The mayor's daughter isn't getting past any of the career tributes- and you aren't making it past the first hour of the games. Don't you get that?”

Summary
This wasn’t right. Nothing about this was right. Grian’s mind was running too quickly now, leaping to all sorts of conclusions on what might have happened to leave Mumbo’s apartment unlocked and unlatched and looking like this. Maybe he was abducted by aliens. Yes, that was a perfectly reasonable explanation supplied by Grian’s perfectly reasonable brain.
His undershirt was all at once too stiff and tight, clinging to his skin like a wetsuit. It was crushing his ribs, cutting off his ability to breathe.
“Grian?”
- or -
In the small town of Boatem, everything is nice and neat in its routine. Grian runs the library and chats with the goofy history teacher on his lunch breaks. All is fine and nothing needs to change. And then Mumbo goes missing, and nothing is the same.

Summary
William nods slowly as he takes in that information. “So... there are other people in your head?”
“Yeah, pretty much.”
That’s really weird. Of course it is, it’s so fucking weird.
But this is Vyncent. Even if he’s sometimes not Vyncent, he’s still there.
It’s strange, but... that’s fine by him, he thinks.
***
Dakota is missing, the Trickster has fucked off to who knows where, and Tide is off probably getting depowered, which leaves William and Vyncent alone. Well, more or less, if you don’t count the six legendary heroes living in Vyncent’s head. William didn’t even know they were there until now.
They’re a mystery to him, and William Wisp has never been one to ignore a mystery.

Summary
"What's happening?"
But Vyncent didn't answer, at first. He didn't know how to. Last he checked, he was in a hotel room with Dakota, and now-
And now it was just like how it was the first time he had a weird dream. He was on the plane, and he could remember everything that happened like it was a memory, rather than a dream. Him and William were alive, and fine-
And currently, William was tapping away at the screen that their movie was just playing on. Casually. Like there was nothing to worry about.

Summary
Sheets tangle around their legs uselessly as their shared body heat replaces the blankets. Chip's leg has somehow fallen over Gillion's, hooked over it, while the one eye visible from his belly-down position has fluttered shut sometime between then and now.
"...okay," Gillion whispers as quietly as he can. "I will be… guarding you. From here. Very convenient location to do so."
...
Chip just looks at him, the strong incline of his nose, the newfound softness in his jaw. His hair flows across the pillow, the ends touching Chip's. He stares at the stillness of a person who can't bear to stand still, not when he has a heroic goal to pursue. Except now, in the quiet of the night.
This isn't something that's his to savor, and it's not a moment to tend to. Not a pirate's precious treasure, nor the surety of the stars at sea. But Chip lets himself look anyway at this half-stranger in his bed, the triton that proclaims himself a hero day in, day out, and hasn't yet tired of being not just the good guy, but the best guy.
OR: two perspectives of sharing the same bed

Summary
Really, it's incredibly obnoxious, the way these two fit so well in the aching gaps between his ribs where loss has dug its claws in. They ought to be planning out their next runs, trying to figure out any possible way to get a hold of some new drop-related information. It's the apocalypse, and the list of things to do is arduous, infinite.
But there's organizing and sewing to do, too. So he lets the ever-present song of grief that haunts him fade into the jaunty, obscure pop-rock song that Cleo is certainly butchering. He stabs himself with his needle and bites out a few bouts of unpleasant words that make Etho’s eyes light up while he bubbles with laughter.
Yeah, maybe this is alright. Grian can worry about the rest of it tomorrow. It's the apocalypse, and all they have is time.
Grian, Cleo, and Etho are family; even if it's unusual, even if it's the zombie apocalypse. They wear their routines and quirks on their sleeves, keep their secrets and pasts buried six feet deep. But some ghosts are too vicious to outrun, and some secrets are far too fickle to keep.

Summary
GIGGS is a local business comprised of Gem, Impulse, Grian, Scar, and Skizz. They've never been sure of what to call themselves -- "movers" is fitting most of the time, but occasionally they'll get some more interesting work that challenges that title. This is the story of how they went from moving furniture to being the go-to solution for anyone with a bit of a ghost problem.

LOST (HC/Life Series au) by Dino_soul

Summary
Etho looks at Joel with the most pitiful look Joel thinks he’s ever seen on someone’s face. “I’m sorry to say, but uh.. the back of the plane is nowhere to be seen. Most of us think it crashed in the ocean.”
Joel’s eyes widen. He feels anger flood his body before common sense can catch up. “What, you’re saying she’s dead?” He snaps. He doesn’t believe that. Not one bit. He can feel her. In his heart. She’s not gone.
Etho’s silence speaks for itself.
Or,
After surviving a plane crash, multiple people team up to stay alive. Mysterious things happen, and relationships (platonic and otherwise) are formed.
Grian, Scar and Joel centric. But you’ll probably see other POVs as well. (This might change later)

Summary
A distant knock cut the conversation short, and the two exchanged confused glances.
“I didn’t invite anyone,” Mumbo defended himself.
Grian only rolled his eyes, disappearing from the counter to appear a few moments later in the kitchen doorway. “Want me to check it out?”
“No!” Mumbo immediately rushed to the doorway, stopping only when he would have to go through Grian to go any further. “I can check, it’s fine.”
Tilting his head, Grian asked innocently, “Why can’t I? They wouldn’t even see me. It might be someone you don’t want to talk to. If you answer it, they’d know you’re here, but if I did….”
“Yes, well, it could also be someone I do want to talk to, and you would scare them away because of that.”
Grian responded with an exaggerated offended gasp. “I can’t believe you would accuse me of that, Mumbolio.”
Another knock rang out, interrupting the exchange before Mumbo could make a retort. Instead, he sighed. “Please let me through.”
-
or, Mumbo and Grian, vampire and ghost respectively, live rather solitary lives in a mansion a short distance away from civilization, until someone comes knocking and refuses to be scared away.

you can't rehearse the chorus (but the verse is sweet) by Gladumf for dots_n_dashes

Summary
He collected a few more purses as he moved through the crowd, tucking them under his robe as the bard sang song after song and the patrons grew drunker and drunker. It was as he was grabbing his last bag of the night that he happened to have up and see the bard staring directly at him. He was still mid chorus, the crowd singing rambunctiously along with him, but there was a gleam in his eyes that told Grian that he knew exactly what he was doing.
Grian met his gaze defiantly, pocketing the pouch while not breaking eye contact. He wasn't scared of some random bard in a tavern, and he wasn't going to show any fear. So he caught him stealing, what was he going to do about it? End his song early and call him out? He still hadn’t gotten paid more than a few small coins for his songs. The grin on the bard’s face grew ever so slightly as they locked eyes, and there was a newly animated air to his movements as he pushed forward into the next verse of his song.

or, Grian is a warlock trying to get his feet beneath him. Scar is a bard trying to do the same. One day, they cross paths.
or or, five times grian listened to scar's singing, and one time he sang along

Summary
Hermit’s Hollow was a quiet town where you learned to ignore whisperings of nonsense and the dull, persistent feeling of being watched before you learned to ride a bike. To call it pedestrian would be a great disservice to all the terrible oddities occupying it— folks and legends alike.
Not that Grian believed any of them, of course.
Or; There's something wrong in Hermit's Hollow. There's something wrong with Grian. Neither of these are a surprise to him.
