Summary
"There's only two things in this world you can be, the one that perseveres, or the one whose body is left for the beasts." The stable hand stated weakly.
Ink curled up beside him and tried to ignore the sounds outside his little sanctuary, the rattling of his shaking bones doing little to cover them. He picked at the spaces between his phalanges and stared unseeingly into the stalls across from them. Perseverance? The concept felt so foreign to his young and shaken mind.
How could he possibly persevere when it felt as if he was unraveling?
(A swap au of my dear friends' multi-chapter fic, Perseverance. Detailing a scenario where Asgore had not found Ink on that last search party, and Ink was forced to survive outside the kingdom walls. You do not have to read Perseverance to enjoy this fic.)

Summary
A black hole opens up between the twin stars at GEMINI, pulling one into the depths of the vast unknown and the other apart as the darkness closes in. Despite the cosmic order, that was not to be the end.
Tilda would make sure of it.
(A reality where Varl is not the only one who dies in GEMINI.)

Summary
After the rebellion, the governing body of Curiam retreated to one of the far corners of the city, and Avalon was left to recover at the hands of the exhausted and beaten-down rebels. The resulting power gap led to an almost worse period of unrest and violence before the dust truly settled. And the survivors were left to pick up the fragmented pieces of themselves and attempt to move on.
Error remembers those times with an unnerving amount of clarity, letting the blood and violence become a part of his life. Though having made a name for himself, as a skilled augmentator and bio-technician, his fear of being held at the mercy of others fell into the back recesses of his mind. Though as time drifts on, he finds himself becoming more and more connected to the many children he had shared safety within the chaos of the rebellion.
Perhaps it wasn't the idea of being powerless that scared him, but the notion of being at the mercy of his own actions caused by emotion.

Summary
The plane of existence turns on a cycle of flawed concepts. Ideas and legends are fabricated for intentions that could never be made accurate. The purposal of a balanced multiverse had always been the ultimate goal—something to fight for.
Though in truth, entropy is the natural state of the multiverse.
You would know.

Summary
The world is dying.
Water green with filth and garbage, and the bodies of dead and contaminated fish litter the surface. The air heavy and stinging with pollution and the remaining humans carry what gas mask they can find to breathe clearly. Shelter becomes limited and available food is even scarcer.
Bitties are no longer useful for companionship, as breeding lines are directed to larger, more combat-fit structures as their value and rarity go up. Stranded in the middle of the chaos, Ink escapes the mill just to be thrown into another hell. Every day that drags on brings endless dangers for those he cares about, and they're forced to watch as humanity commits suicide, bringing the planet down with them.
(Bittybones fic not focused on the journey of being seen as more than a pet, and rather the struggles of being an inferior in a world that blends and falls apart at the hands of the superior.)

Summary
Ink should shut up, sit back down, and zone out till the meeting was over and he could go home. But Ink was tired of listening to the same things over and over, tired of hearing the reasons why Nightmare and Error had to die. He didn't care that people were dying, that universes were dying. If they had to die for the good of the universes then they would die, it's just how things went. The 'save everyone' mindset that all the Councils had was never meant for the multiverse, life was never built to be fair.
People died all the time. It would never matter how innocent they were, or if they were a newborn child. If the universe became corrupt, then that was that. Aldritch scowled, his green eyes glaring holes into Ink's form. "If you don't care then what of the Higher Beings? Surely they have reason to be furious if their universes are to perish."
"The Creators couldn't care less." The protector scoffed at the notion, and he could see Dream roll his eyelights off to the side. Clearly finding the idea of the Creators caring about their creation as fictional as Ink did.
The great asgore only sneered, "And how could you be so certain?"
Ink laughed, if a bit maniacally. "I see things you can't. I know."

Summary
The red head of the match glances off the box in a clumsy strike and is instantly alight. There is nothing interesting about the fire, really, other than the fact that Jon created it.
--
Or, Jon used fire to deal with Mister Spider when he was eight years old, and the Desolation has clung to him ever since.

Summary
Tim would laugh if he could. Instead, he takes his hand away and kisses Jon before he gets any ideas about asking for seconds. He tastes anger as Jon goes rigid. Whose is it? The Eye’s? The Hunt’s? Theirs?
The scabbed bruise on Jon’s lip has split open. Tim laps at the broken skin before resealing their mouths together. He’s relentless; the need goes deeper than he wants to admit, half of him still mad with the urge to stab Jon. To make sure that doesn’t happen again. This mimicry of violence is the only thing keeping him from doing that. (Never mind that he’d offered himself up. The Beast doesn’t care. It’s reacting to the threat, not what came before it.)
