    Summary

    "Ooh, this is fascinating." Wei Wuxian lifts his hand and—Heavens help him—Lan Wangji's hand follows. Because they're stuck. They're stuck. Their fingers are interlaced, and they can't pull them apart. "You know, I wasn't expecting this, but isn't it odd? It's obviously a curse, but so far, it's not harmful."

    Oh, it is harmful, Lan Wangji thinks through a spinning head as he feels Wei Wuxian twist their hands this way and that, testing the limits of the curse. It is most certainly harmful.

    ----------

    A curse brings Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji together—literally.

    (tl;dr a curse makes teen!wwx and teen!lwj hold hands. lwj, who is very much in denial about his feelings, tries his best not to panic and wwx decides that Operation: Make Lan Zhan My Best Friend is a GO. hilarity ensues)

    Summary

    Ranboo goes to feel his throat, and slaps himself in the larynx. He coughs— he can’t breathe— shaking and gasping until he can calm down. Another shallow breath (deep, deep, he’s breathing with his diaphragm, all the way from his hips up to his neck), and he’s stable.

    Calm.

    He can’t breathe.

    He tries to put the pieces together, tracing the outline of fingertips at his throat. No one’s strangling him, he’s not-
    Why can’t he breathe?

    He presses his ear to the metal. It’s cold, and the wall presses oddly against his uuli. The sound of the engine almost sounds like a thunderstorm, if he closes his eyes. Ragged breath in, slow breath out. In, out.

    Ranboo closes his eyes and suffocates.

    --

    OR: It starts with a pair of diplomats. It ends with a rescue, unlikely friendships, and the birth of a family.

    Niki is angry, and she is strong, and she has named herself after the goddess of revenge. Justice and retribution are her specialty, these days.

    It's time for a bit of comeuppance, but not everyone is on board with that.

    or; in which Niki punches Wilbur, and things spiral from there.

    Summary

    The knife pushes thin along Dick’s carotid artery, cupping the indent between neck and jawline—forcing him to angle his chin. The metal is warm, pulled with execution speed from under Damian’s pillow.

    “Okay,” Dick says quietly, tracking the intricacies of his own heartbeat—counting the space between breaths. “Guess I did need a shave.”

    (With faltering steps, Dick and Damian become Batman and Robin.)

    Summary

    President Tubbo wakes up with joints hurting and harsh gasps torn out of his chest, phantom pains from the explosion tearing through his limbs. In the back of his head, L'Manburg sings out to him, going through blocks and buildings and people alike. He just wanted his people to be safe, and instead, he has to feel his country fall apart.

     

    Or: Being President means knowing where everything is, even if you don't want to. Tubbo wonders if that's what drove the others to madness.

    Summary

    The events of the game were just that, a game. A VR simulation meant to test and strengthen Naegi's character. But though the events were fake, the impact they had on Naegi was very real. Now he has to go back to his normal, everyday life, deal with the fact that his classmates aren't quite the people he thought he knew, and figure out what the school intends by promoting him to SDHS Hope.

    Summary

    Thomas and Martha Wayne are Gotham's most famous martyrs. They used to be a wife and a husband, a mother and a father, doting parents. They could also be cunning, wicked, glamorous, decadent; an heir and a gold-digger, beautiful people in a beautiful house. It takes a certain kind of parents to make a man like Bruce Wayne, and Alfred can't take all the blame. He can't even take most of it.

    Summary

    For the Remnants of Despair, it was supposed to be a typical Saturday night of ill-advised male bonding: firearms, explosives, at least one hostage situation, and a running tally of Future Foundation corpses. Somewhere along the line things went wrong, in the domino-effect-that-threatens-to-topple-your-own-empire-of-Despair kind of way.

    The Remnants have learned two things from this fiasco.

    One, that being best friends and being terrible people are not mutually exclusive.

    And two, that something is horribly wrong with Izuru Kamukura.

    Summary

    Tommy always wondered why exile went the way it did. After all, if that kind of stuff was the consequences of his actions in real life, then why would it be different in the game? But then Wilbur and Dream constantly checked up on him to make sure it never got too intense, made sure he took breaks whenever he needed, always told him to ignore Twitter at all times possible, and all in all started to make him think: were his parents actually in the right?

    Well, leave it to his other friends to remind him of his place, at least.

    Or that fic where not only actions have consequences, but words do as well.

    Summary

    Here are the reasons why Tubbo is okay:

    One, his best friend is alive.

    Two, he’s married.

    Three, his son is safe.

    Four, Dream is in prison.

    Five, Technoblade decided Snowchester isn’t enough of a government to be blown up.

    Six, Wilbur was revived a hell of a lot more reasonable than anyone thought and decided to fuck off into the woods rather than kill anyone.

    Seven, Tubbo has nukes, so if reasons four, five, and six turn out to be untrue, Tubbo can fix that real quick.

    --

    Or, Tommy gets a therapist. Tubbo works through some complicated feelings about it.

    Summary

    “Can I sleep at yours tonight?”

    “Sure, but that doesn’t sound like the massive favour you were bigging it up to be,” Wilbur seemed hesitant, clearly worried about asking too many questions when Tommy had already warned him away from them.

    “Bitch,” Tommy said fondly, relaxing into his chair and ignoring the curious glances he was getting from his teacher and social worker. “I also may need you to drive to my college and talk to some people so that I’m allowed to stay over at yours. You don’t have a criminal record, do you?”


    Tommy makes a mistake that ends with his teachers finding out more about his home life than he'd ever wanted them to. Wilbur finding out was just icing on top of the pile of shit he was calling a cake.

    Summary

    At some point, much before all this, the sight had been one of comfort and reassurance. At some point, before it all went down to hell, he’d feel relief and safety when around this once welcoming man.

    Now, with Sam standing high up above, putting away his crossbow and retrieving a sword without a moment’s hesitation, all there was left was despair.

    “Sam, please,” he choked out, the tears scorching his skin. “Please, don’t—”

    “You were warned, Ranboo,” Sam cut him off, cold, as he continued treading through the snow with ease. “You knew this would happen if you helped him.”

    Or, the wavers state that if you do anything that results in the prisoner's escape, you will be hunted down and killed as punishment. Ranboo learns just how unforgiving the rules can be first-hand. He learns some other things, too.
