    Summary

    On a joint NASA-ESA mission to the dwarf planet Ceres, Iskall and Zedaph aren’t expecting much. A long, boring trip, several weeks of stress and excitement, and then a long, boring trip back.

    There’s just one slight snag: they’re not alone up there.

    With the rest of humanity millions of miles away, will they be able to make it back? Or are our astronauts doomed to sail the stars forever?

    (Or: The astronaut AU nobody asked for. Updates Mondays! This fic is fully written!)

    Summary

    “You’re wondering about the scars,” says Grian, quietly, out of the blue.

    Mumbo freezes with his hands buried wrist-deep in Grian’s feathers, right at the point where all three sets of wings converge on his back. He’s supposed to be helping with Grian’s preening – though it’s devolved somewhat into petting. Devolved quite a lot into petting, now he thinks about it. Whoops. He doesn’t think he’s removed a loose feather or piece of dirt in at least five minutes.

    It’s a privilege, he knows it is, to be invited to do this. To be allowed to touch the places Grian can’t reach. To be allowed to see Grian with his shirt off, his back turned, his wings spread wide and vulnerable. He shouldn’t be getting distracted by how soft the feathers are, this close to Grian’s spine. He should be focusing on his job.

    (In which Mumbo helps Grian out with his wings, and learns a little more of his past in the process.)

    Summary

    A group of self indulgent angst stories.

    If I need a good cry story and can't find one, this will be where I write it.

    These are written as independent stories unless noted otherwise.

    Summary

    When Xisuma was sent to go investigate this facility, he wasn’t expecting THIS.

    He was maybe expecting to find a dealer, maybe some stolen items, but no.

    He had found an experiment center.

    Summary

    One morning, early in Season 7, the world stutters. For fifteen seconds, everything stops, from the daylight cycle, to mobs, to even the players themselves.

    Afterwards, the Hermits wake up without any of their memories. Finding themselves in a strange world full of buildings and mechanics they don't understand, the Hermits must band together and figure out how to work as a team, exploring about the world around them and trying to get their memories back.

    But a mystery is looming in the shadows, and far away, in a castle floating in the Deep End, a plan is put in motion.
