  2. Summary

    On hiatus
    Things got bad again

     

    Might be discontinued. ONM- asfth, it was always about other people. I don't want to flesh out ghosts of past friends anymore, I don't want to worry about people reading this when I'd prefer them not to anymore.
    So this might be it.

     

    Things (specifically character names, ONM the fic, and a few others) should be getting rewrites
    It doesn't even really matter whether or not we come back- because no one is reading this anymore, which-
    We did cause that, so I guess it's alright

    But- We should be back eventually, might do a small series with a fixed story about something close to home.

    Summary

    The honey farm is so noisy. The constant ticking of the dispenser drives him up the wall, and it’s right in the middle of the walkway. If it was just in the back of the room, the wood and stone could at least have a fighting chance of dulling the sound into something bearable, but no, no. It has to be right here, in his face, in the way, every time he walks back to the turtle farm. Could turn it off, he reckons, but then what’s even the point of having it in the first place? Might as well just get rid of it at that rate, and that wouldn’t make Rek very happy, now would it?

    Living with Rekrap2 might just be the most difficult thing SB has ever attempted. It's definitely worth it, though.

    Summary

    Some people enjoyed being constantly threatened with death, Branzy reminded himself hysterically. Some people liked it, they signed up for it.

    Vitalasy had signed up for it and Subz had and Spoke and Mid and Rekrap, and he betrayed them as easily as rolling his eyes, but Vitalasy still grinned that cat’s-tooth grin when they met in passing–-

    (Or: Lifesteal SMP is a voluntary death game. Usually.)

    Summary

    It’s really weird that Dick is not quite twenty years old right now compared to Tim’s seventeen, soon to be eighteen. He seems so much younger than he did the first time around, when a twelve year old Tim tracked him down and tried to convince him to go back to being Robin.

    Dick has already surprised him by seemingly accepting his wild story about time travel. Well, hopefully he’ll be willing to go out on even more of a limb now.

    Now, how best to phrase this? Jason’s his dead little brother—I have to find a way to tell him my plan delicately.

    “Hey Dick,” Tim says, and then freezes as his mind abruptly goes blank. He stares at Dick, who returns his gaze expectantly. He opens his mouth and blurts out, “How are you at gravedigging?”

    This story is standalone and can be read separately from the rest of the series.

    Summary

    As he pulled out his notepad, he saw that the blonde man's eyes were wider than normal, so Tommy pulled his sleeves down.

    "So, would you like to place your order?" Tommy repeated, swallowing the fear that gripped at his heart.

    The brown-haired beanie boy nodded. "I would like some chicken alfredo."

    "...Chicken and Shrimp Carbonara," Techno mumbled, slipping the headphones over his head.

    "Chicken Parmigiana," the blonde man muttered.

    "Alright, is that all?" Tommy asked politely.

    "...Are you alright?" the brown-haired boy inquired softly.

    God. When was the last time Tommy was asked that genuinely?

    Tommy shrugged. "As good as I can be. I'll go tell the chef. Be back in a bit with your food."
    ///
    Or, TommyInnit is a trans male waiter, and he meets Wilbur, Technoblade, and Phil, who all decide to get Tommy out of the hell he calls his home. Tommy learns to heal, and some crazy shite happens.

    POPPYTWT/PROBLEMATIC PEOPLE: DNI AND GO FUCK YOURSELVES<3

    This and the sequel was written pre-Wilbur outted. I no longer support him, but I don't want to take this down.
