Summary
William and Joyce Price didn't worry overly much when, after elementary school one day, little Chloe brought home an imaginary friend. When "Max" stuck around well into middle school, however, William started getting concerned. Concerned enough to get Chloe a therapist. And when William died in a horrible car crash just weeks later, Joyce decided keeping Chloe in therapy was probably for the best. Now years of counseling later, Chloe has come to terms with the fact her best friend never existed. That is, of course, until Max shows up again. And Chloe's week is only going to get stranger.

Summary
After Max ensures that Chloe won't die and that she will never end up in the Dark Room, everything should be fine. But a week of renewed friendship and a case closed aren't enough to fix Chloe's head, or clear a hundred false memories from Max.
AU where Max has time-travel powers, but there are no supernatural consequences like megastorms, merely personal ones.

Summary
On the hill by the lighthouse, Chloe watches as Max goes back through the photo to erase their timeline and save Arcadia Bay. Terrified, she waits for the moment in which she will cease to exist, but it never comes. Something has clearly gone very wrong. They stumble back into the world, confused and unable to make sense of things. They had found Rachel, gotten Jefferson locked up, and the storm had passed. It was all supposed to be over. But if that's true, then why is everything still so messed up, and what's wrong with Max?

Summary
That day in 2008 changed Chloe's life forever. She lost her best friend, and she came very close to losing her dad, too. With time, William healed, and the Price family began establishing a new normal.
When William tells her one morning that he wants things to go back to the way they used to be, Chloe doesn't see how that's possible. When William says he wants her to be a kid again and "experience life," Chloe thinks he's being ridiculous. When he says he wants to go camping like they used to every summer, she thinks he's out of his fucking mind.
Perhaps he is, but he knows there's only one way to get his daughter back to her old self.

Summary
Max thought she could convince herself that letting Chloe die was the right thing to do. But in the end, she couldn't follow through. Instead, she works to make things right in a new timeline, proving that Chloe is worth fighting for--even if she has to take the bullet.
Alternate ending/fix-it fic because years of being salty about the game's endings have led me to rewrite the entire plot, let's go!
