Summary
* THE FORBIDDEN PATH BEGAN WITH ICE MAGIC.
* AND RIGHT BEHIND IT, BLAZED A TRAIL OF FIRE.When Susie gets separated from the Fun Gang, it leaves Kris and Ralsei with only each other to navigate a new Dark World— a vast garden of pink and gold flowers.
It should be a quick one, hopefully; find the Dark Fountain, seal it and leave. There’s no time to dilly dally, especially with fate itself weighing heavy on their shoulders.
Unfortunately, things take a bit of a… weird route.

Summary
Mom says, I love you. Kris thinks that’s probably true.
Mom says, Asriel will be coming home for break. He will be so happy to see you. Kris wonders if he will even know the difference, if he’ll see what their mother can’t. They’ve always been a weird kid— people have told them that their whole life, but someone should have noticed.
Someone should have noticed, right?
(or, self loathing becomes a complicated thing when you're not entirely sure who you are.)

Summary
Aventurine works at a shitty burger joint from nine to five, five days a week. His life is boring; mundane. Not much happens apart from the occasional fuck ups at the bar or the casino. But one day, a new guy shows up at his job, and it changes his life forever.
His life was a mess, and now this new guy—all polished and perfect—was trying to step into it. Aventurine couldn’t understand why. What was it that kept drawing the man toward him?

Summary
A tall figure stood at the door.
Shadow Milk tilted his head in what could have been either disbelief or amusement, or both. “Vanilly?”
His long, usually perfectly coiffed hair was a tangled mess, and his robes had gone slightly undone.
Shadow Milk's gaze didn’t stop there. He found Pure Vanilla's face, which was almost hidden behind the cookie's blonde waves.
His face was flushed red, and his eyes looked astonishingly tired.
It was clear to Shadow Milk that the great Pure Vanilla, king of the Vanilla Kingdom, was standing in front of him completely drunk off of witches-know-what.
It was new, interesting, exciting!

Summary
《◇》《◇》《◇》《◇》《◇》《◇》《◇》《◇》
Pure Vanilla stared resolutely forward into the vast sea of darkness and eyes, each trained on him and him alone. He should've felt intimidated, trapped. He did not.
Their scrutiny did not crumble him.
“You are me as much as I am you, my dear!” Shadow Milk's voice echoed from both behind and above him, as well as nowhere at all. An invisible finger trailed over Pure Vanilla's soft jawline, “A part of my soul jam is within you– A piece of me you'll never be rid of, a connection impossible to sever! Don't you see? There can be no others. Only you and I! Isn't that what soulmates are?"

Summary
The room is too bright.
It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.
It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.
With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

Sunday's Worst Nightmare: Learning the Magic of Friendship by SweemyClod

Summary
Sunday feels he lost everything after the events of Penacony and is left revealuating every detail of his life. Past trauma he has not addressed with his sister continues to bubble up, and persisting through his pain is not producing the same results it used to. Robin suggests joining the Astral Express and Sunday disagrees, but the crew become his only option. Fortunately he is accepted as the sixth passenger. As time passes, Sunday learns to exist comfortably, addresses his childhood trauma, and learns what love is.
Please please please trust me that things end up okay. I just don't want to portray mental illness incorrectly. It's real and will be sad but I'm aiming for it to be uplifting.

Summary
“Ratio?” he asks, stepping a bit closer. “It’s me, Aventurine. Are you… do you want to go home?”
At the mention of his name, Ratio stills, a light startle in his step as he turns to face Aventurine. He drops his hands, lacing them back together in front of him. He looks dazed, normal intensity lost from his eyes as they open glassy and vacant. They flex wide with recognition, but he doesn’t say anything.
Ratio goes quiet, and Aventurine doesn't know what to do.

Summary
ENA is out shopping currently and not in... the best of conditions. Still, even with her less than favourable state, she has things to do today. The day is as normal as it can be in this abstract world, so there will surely be no problems when the day is done...
Right..?
(Constructive criticism welcomed!)
