Summary
He was cold. All he could remember was the cold and his music. He could feel hints and scraps of what he once was, memories stored in… somewhere he forgot the name of, not that he would retain the information for more than a second if he could find it. This was better than before, a mercy compared to when he was… was? The beginning of a rare thought was blown away with the wind. He tried to curl up into himself and clutch his music closer as the blizzard ate away at what was left of him, familiar in a way he is incapable of placing.
Five Pebbles has been sitting in the blizzard for far to long, but when an unknown iterator finds a way to detach puppets from their cans, Pebbles' local group rescues Moon and him. He now must live with what has happened to him rather than wither away.

Summary
An AU where Suns realised their mistake earlier and decided to tell Moon before it was too late.
Are they really going to accept his death already, before it’s already certain, do nothing because of their reputation? They have truly sunk to a new low for iterator kind. Deep down, they know that his metaphorical blood would be on their hands, no matter how much they try to justify their own pathetic actions. They made the worst mistake they could have made, and Pebbles is the one who will pay for it.
No, this isn't the end yet.
No matter how much their reputation may suffer, even if Pebbles hates them after, they can’t let him die. There has to be something that can be done. They needed a way to kill the experiment and stop him from doing it again.
They froze. There is one way to do that.

Summary
Ever since he had first been created, Five Pebbles had always felt an underlying sense of wrongness. He doesn't know what, he just knows that he hates it. He has searched and scanned his structure for the issue but no errors came up, even when his creators were still around.
More than anything else he no longer wants to feel like this

Doomed from the start? Let’s test that theory. by CisntCritter

Summary
Iterators, godlike in comparison to most creatures. They were simply made to be more than anything else that came before them in most ways. However, they still are living creatures caught in the cycles of their world. And, crucially, they are still people. As people, they break and suffer and lie and love. As people, they live and die… they still question.
Fivepebbles spent an excruciating amount of time sitting in his own dying body, waiting for the end as he lost more and more. In that time where he was both living and dead, he began to question.
Was he doomed to end this way form the start. But he ends up gasping against the feeling of it all returning to him and realizes he’s been sent back in time. He keeps his condition from going public and vows to change a few things- but can anything truly change his fate? Or is he genuinely that doomed by the narrative?
Aka- My take on the “Pebbles goes back in time/cycles” concept. Planned out about a year ago but rewritten (and/or written for the first time for at least half the chapters) but I decided it’s time to at least start sharing it. This will explore Pebbles as a character, fate, endings, relationships and change- hopefully for the better.

Summary
(So I lay there waiting for him to hate me.)
Five Pebbles was comfortable in his fate. Was it grim, and tragic? Yes. Was it all that he deserved? Also yes.
So why did everyone else insist on trying to drag him away from the life he had finally accepted?
No Significant Harassment is tired of Five Pebbles' excuses. Whether he likes it or not, the other will face all that he left behind.
No longer will they ignore the problem and hope it gets better.

Summary
Pretending to be sick for attention? Yeah, Pebbles is selfish enough to do that. He’s an awful person after all.
…An awful person who just happens to actually get sick.
Or: The touch-starved Triple Divorce fic.
