    Summary

    You had goals, before.

    Help your friends. Learn more about the loops. Understand the King. Maybe even make an ally of him.

    You help your friends more loops than not. It’s a wonderful performance, one that almost lets you immerse yourself in the fantasy that they could love something like you. But you’re getting tired of performing. So tired you can’t be bothered to put the slightest effort into your mask against Odile, this loop. Let her puzzle over you and complain about her “missing something”; she won’t be able to do anything about it with the end so soon anyways.

    The Head Housemaiden doesn’t know anything about the loops. Or maybe she does, but can’t tell you. You don’t know where else to look. You could try asking Loop again, but you really aren’t in the mood for another one of their “experiments.”

    And as for the King…

    ----------------
    An AU that asks the question: What would have happened if Siffrin didn't complete the Kingquest until Act 4? And... hmm, nope! I think that's the only difference!

    Summary

    You only drop your hand once he’s fully out of your sight. You can’t bring yourself to look at the drawing, still on the ground, facing you mockingly. You’re not stupid. Every time you look down, you can see your hands, black as the night sky. You can see the stars glowing on your arms. You can feel the way your head flares up as you talk. You can feel the Universe-forsaken star thudding against your chest with every breath you take. But you had wished, pathetically, desperately, that maybe Siffrin would see something of himself in you. That he would, somehow, see past the stupid construct the Universe made for you, when it decided you lost the privilege to be him.

    You can’t believe, after everything, you still have hope for yourself.

     

    Or, several occasions in which Loop struggles with their new body.

    Summary

    Keith's solution to his steadily escalating problem is to hide it and hope it goes away. So instead of noticing what's the matter with Keith, everyone notices the steady escalation of his hiding.

    It's only marginally an improvement. (It's not an improvement at all.)

    Summary

    "Is it often like this?"

    Hawkeye's voice was so soft, Ed almost didn't hear it through the static clouding his head. He took a moment to breathe.

    "Not often", he finally said. "This storm's a bad one, but usually I could just take it easy for the day. Get some rest. It passes. Just—"

    He cut himself off with a sigh.

    "Just ...?", Hawkeye prompted after a moment when he didn't continue.

    Edward grimaced. "Well, the shitheads who have it out for me rudely don't give a fuck if I'm having a bad day or not. Really we should make them sign up on a schedule. Attempted murder on fair days only, please."

    --

    Edward knows not to push himself too much when the rain makes his scars ache and the strain of the automail on his body unbearable. Really, he does. It's just ... sometimes he's not given a choice.

    Summary

    Alfons Heiderich does something he regrets and for once, Edward actually decides to intervene.

    "Alfons finally managed to shove the door open, and Edward found that the characteristic calmness Alfons typically brought with him was very noticeably gone.

    Alfons didn’t stay still for a single moment. He closed the door-or intended to. The door only bounced lamely off the door frame, making Edward wince a little. His roommate spared neither the door nor Edward a glance, though, instead having some other goal.

    Using the wall as support, Alfons stumbled to the small base cabinet near the right of the front door. With quiet bewilderment, Edward watched as Alfons frantically, violently, even, pulled out all of the drawers."

    Summary

    Dick’s goal for Thanksgiving (code named Operation F.I.S.H.): A family outing to the aquarium.

    It feels achievable - everyone has been getting along better lately, Jason is spiraling closer, Cass is coming home. But there is a lot of unspoken hurt in every direction, and Dick’s own position in the family is shakier than ever since Bruce returned.

    If Dick wants to realize his dream of family bonding, there will have to be many painful conversations between all parties. Dick’s own secrets will need to surface, the ones he has long kept submerged, the ones he will fight to sink forever.

    (Or: Where Bruce is just a bit darker, even less emotionally available, and treats everyone a little worse, and how they all fix their family anyway.)

    “Okay, and?”

    That made TommyInnit hesitate — he had known the boy before him for many years, now. They grew up together, fought together, laughed together, built together, and cried together. Time and time again they were separated, time and time again they were upset or hurt by each other. Even then, never, not even for a second, Tommy thought he’d hear words like these, with the implications they held to them. Tubbo was supposed to know how much Tommy cared about him, there weren’t supposed to be any ands. When he spoke, his voice was much softer than before.

    “And I would’ve lost you, Tubbo.”

    “Okay, and?” He repeated, and Tommy could hear the crackling of static in his ears.

    "Hey, Dick, if I get mauled by the Devil, please don't cry over my corpse."

    "What?"

    "I don't want you touching me with your dead rat hands," Jason clarified.

    Dick risked a glance away from the bushes, just to throw an incredulous look at him. "I poked it with a stick!"

    After sightings of the Jersey Devil spike, Dick and Jason find themselves taking an impromptu overnight hike in one of the biggest forests in the contiguous United States.

    Naturally, it doesn't go that well.
