    Summary

    A glitch causes Caine’s audio to be broadcast across the circus while he plans an adventure with Bubble, and the cast gets to hear Caine struggle and laugh with the circus’ stupid spaghetti code, as well as some oddly human moments from Caine as they learn things about him and things that he does that they never knew about.

    Summary

    Kalego was staying late at Babyls to mark assignments and finish up reports. Well, he had been, until suddenly he was summoned by his student to the middle of nowhere in the pouring rain.

    "I'm sorry, Kalego-sensei!" Iruma shouted. He sounded more… distraught than usual.

    He was also trembling quite a bit, and he had a terrified look in his eyes.

    Summary

    As much as Iruma's 'overwhelming crisis evasion capability' is useful for fights, it's a bit of an annoyance in everyday life. However, Asmodeus (and possibly the rest of demonkind), don't see it that way.

    In which:
    The Boy is a little slower to voice regret,
    The Major is a little louder,
    The Local Evil Scientist is still within hearing range,
    And The Intern does not feel it necessary to bring up the possibility of a memory wipe.

    Alternatively,

    In the absence of all other options, it somehow falls to Doctor Heinz Doofenshmirtz to be the voice of reason.

    Summary

    "What's a Nonary Game?" Carlos asks blankly.

    The other three look at him like he's just asked what color the sky is, and he feels the sudden need to justify himself. "I've been in a Decision Game," he says. "Just... not a Nonary Game."

    This does not seem to clarify anything to anyone.

    "Is a Decision Game a thing where you get kidnapped by someone calling themselves Zero?" Clover asks. "And then you have to escape from a lot of locked rooms and try not to get murdered while people start talking about other timelines?"

    "Yes," Carlos says.

    "Oh," Alice says. "So that's basically a Nonary Game, then."

    In 2028, Carlos uses the alien transport pods to escape Dcom, and save Junpei and Akane.

    In 2074, after the end of the last Nonary Games, Clover and Alice use the same pods to go back to their own time.

    In 2027, Aoi is just trying to kidnap Junpei for the Nonary Game that will save his sister. It'd be nice if all these time travelers didn't keep wandering in and interrupting.

    You should join the Justice League, Dick says when he’s ten years old and hopeful.
    No, Bruce says.
    You should join the Justice League, Dick says when he’s fourteen and realistic.
    No, Bruce says.
    I’m going to join the Justice League, Dick says when he’s seventeen and furious.
    No, Bruce says. No, you are not.

    Summary

    After a couple thousand years of them prying, forcing him to accept the truth under a lifetime of lies to everyone and himself, cracks began to form. Metaphorical cracks where emotions banished long ago came crawling back.

    Guilt. Regret. Grief.

    But when his protective shell of denial, delusions, and repression crumbled and they broke down the triangle into something more self-aware, the next step of rebuilding him back didn’t go as planned. Bill might have finally admitted and felt remorse for a lot of his actions. But nothing could motivate him to try atoning for them. He didn’t see the point in trying.

    Atonement was meant to correct previous wrongdoings so they weren’t hanging over them when they reincarnated. And his vague understanding was that atonement could be achieved by either undoing the consequences of his previous actions, doing some equivalent act of good for other people, or demonstrating some other expression of those feelings of remorse that were plaguing him. Except none of them seemed relevant to his situation.

    Was there anything good that he could do that would equal the destruction of his entire home dimension, let alone everything that he’d done in the trillion years since?

    Summary

    The one where Vader turned double agent for the Rebellion about three years after ROTS, and Leia is now his primary contact with the Rebellion.

    This is a collection of oneshots that all fit into the same universe, but posted in no particular order. Updated when the muse strikes me.

    Alternate summary, according to TV Tropes: A man attempts to escape slavery by turning into one of his culture heroes, teaching his daughter how to do magic, killing people, and flower arranging.

    Summary

    The law is clear: whoever correctly answers three riddles will marry the prince, while all who fail are to be executed. The people live in fear as more challengers try and fail, and the throne grows bloodier with every passing year. But a young prince, nameless and in exile from his home, believes there may be more to this brutal challenge than meets the eye.

    Of course, there's only one way to find out: ring the gong, and take the trial.
