    When you were assigned to this colonization mission, you thought of it as a mere vacation at best. (Or an offensive joke at worst.)

    But you could never have imagined the horrors you were about to face…
    .
    .
    .
    Starting with the condition of this ship! WHO THE HELL GAVE THESE PEOPLE A PERMIT TO FLY?!

    ~~~~
    Or:

    Summary

    -- The Canvas was hungry and so was he. Or maybe it was the other way around, Verso didn’t know anymore. Not that it was important either way. As long as he would receive food soon, the Canvas would remain, no matter what the Painters wanted or did. --

    Everyone with the power to create has heard the stories at some point: Be careful with your craft, there is danger lurking in the dark. Creatures that feed off of your creation and attach themself to you, if you're not careful.
    And yet sometimes you don't know what's happening, until it's too late...

    Summary

    Being an alpha, able to slave any omega to his will by breeding them, has long since lost all relevant meaning in a world where omegas are all but extinct. But fate would have it that Gustave, of all people, is a rare exception. And if Verso wants to make Maelle so angry that she will finally be willing to unpaint him, hurting Gustave is the easiest way to make that happen.

    Summary

    Everything that had happened in the last hour was all a blur to Steven now. He could barely remember his time at the coffee shop with Jake, or the time spent making their way to the museum to meet Marc. He recalls Marc flirting with him all the way back to his flat, all the while Jake looked like he was about to deck the other man if he so much as spoke another word to him. Of course, that hadn’t happened, and now—well…let’s just say Steven was getting way more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    Adam Edwards has always loved Victor in silence.
    Twelve years younger and the closest friend of William Frankenstein, he grew up beneath the shadow of the mansion, and beneath Victor himself. Since sixteen, his heart has belonged to the william's elder brother: brilliant, distant, and dangerously close to madness.
    Victor was never meant to be loved. Yet Adam loved him with a devotion that bordered on worship.
    Then a funerary event shatters the fragile bond between them.
    Some loses are not accepted.
    And some men -like baron frankenstein- do not know how to let go.
    A raw story where obsession intertwines with science, and love grows greater than death itself. How far would someone be willing to go to reclaim what was suddenly taken from them? Or more precisely... how far would someone go to bring another person back to life?

    Or: a fanfiction where young Adam Edwards — a future duke, twelve years younger — is hopelessly in love with Victor Frankenstein, the elder brother of his childhood best friend, William.

    And now, she's here, at the edge of her world."

    Summary

    Seeing him is like living again in ignorance. A time before his world became Fractured – both metaphoric and literal. Seeing him is remembering there was once a time when he thought he could be happy, where he could be happier than anyone else. Seeing him is like the clouds of his life blowing away – like everything he learned 60 years ago was a lie and he can go back to those days where nothing mattered except the sound of keys composing a new melody combined with the sounds of pencil scratching across a journal.

    Seeing him is impossible, Verso thinks, because his Gustave died 60 years ago – left to a heartbreaking fate because Verso could not tell him the tragic truth of their world.

    Or: Before the Fracture, Verso Dessendre and Gustave were inevitable. When their world split apart, Verso believed Gustave to have died in the aftermath. Why, then, is Gustave alive in Lumière far after his date of Gommage?

    Summary

    There is a man on the street, staring up at Gustave’s apartment.

    He’s dressed well — a sharp suit cracked with gold, wavy dark hair combed back and shot through with white. His cold blue eyes are rimmed red as if he’s been crying for a while. He feels… important somehow, like a missing piece to a puzzle Gustave has yet to uncover.

    Or: Gustave navigates resurrection in the wake of Maelle taking over the canvas, and meets a not-so-stranger he cannot place in his memory.

    Summary

    The Pride & Prejudice AU you didn't know you needed.

    When he returned to Verso, he did not hesitate.
    "She could not go through with it," he said in a rush, keeping his voice low enough that only Verso could hear. "The engagement. I offered to take her place. I know this is irregular, I know you have every right to refuse, but I am asking you—"
    Verso's hand tightened on his waist, and Gustave's words died in his throat.
    "Why?" Verso asked, his pale eyes fixed on Gustave's face with unsettling intensity.
    "Why you?" he clarified, his voice quiet but intent. "Why sacrifice yourself for her?"
    The question caught Gustave off guard. He opened his mouth, closed it again, searching for the right words.
    "Because she is my sister," he said simply. "And I would do anything for her."

    In Belle Époque France, an old promise binds two families. When the promised bride refuses, her brother steps forward instead—binding himself to a man shaped by pride and expectation. What begins as duty unfolds into a slow reckoning with choice, restraint, and the dangerous intimacy of wanting what you were never supposed to have.

    Summary

    Verso and Gustave meet on a train, but never exchange names when Verso misunderstands their conversation and leaves abruptly.

    He regrets it almost immediately, and does everything in his power to find the man that he started falling for after one conversation.

    Finding him again might seem impossible, but Verso is willing to do whatever it takes, because he's not willing to let the man go.

    Summary

    He plunges his sword into the ground — a familiar, practiced motion. The world pauses for a moment, and he sees the purple threads of blighted chroma ensnaring Gustave; pulls, yanking them towards himself. The pulsing chroma freezes for a second, tightening around the engineer. Then, like a pouncing predator, jumps at Verso.

    The world starts moving again. A wave of nausea and fatigue almost knocks Verso to the ground, and it’s a miracle that he manages to dodge the next attack.

    Gustave is staring at him, trying to process what just happened.

    “Run,” Verso croaks.

    Or: 5 times Verso carried Gustave’s burden and the 1 time Gustave carried his.

    Summary

    Gustave had been ready to sacrifice himself for his sister.

    He had not been ready for his sister to drag him back from death itself.

    With Renoir’s final Gommage looming over them, Gustave is constrained to accept co-leading the expedition with Verso, a powerful Alpha. To add to Gustave’s frustration, his own Alpha dynamic has weakened—command lacks authority, need for control is secondary and his sensitivity to pheromones is deficient. As if he needed all of that while trying to save the canvas…

    Apparently, such was the price of being reborn from old chroma.

    But the true cost lingered…

    Summary

    Gustave woke to gentle pressure on his wrist.

    He blinked groggily, finding Verso crouched beside his work chair, the android's fingers wrapped carefully around his pulse point. "What are you doing?"


    "Your heart rate was elevated during sleep," Verso said, matter-of-fact. "Irregular breathing patterns. I wanted to ensure you were not experiencing a medical emergency."


    Gustave stared at him. "I was... dreaming. People do that."


    "Oh." Verso's expression shifted slightly—confusion, maybe, or embarrassment. The micro-expressions were uncanny. "My apologies. I have logged this for future reference." He didn't let go of Gustave's wrist.


    "You can let go now."


    "Your pulse is still elevate
    d."

    "Because you startled me awake."


    Verso stared at him, and for just a moment, something like annoyance flickered across his expression.

    In which Gustave comes across a destroyed android in the scrapyard. When VRS-0 wakes with no memory, neither of them are prepared for what comes next.
