Summary
as the new show starts up in castle town:
tenna grows anxious when old behaviors rear their ugly heads,
spamton contends with the idea of forever,
and battat tries to grieve someone he's not sure is even gone.
how do we become comfortable with imperfection? what do we do when things about ourselves that once seemed so certain suddenly feel ill-fitting? how do we continue to enjoy things, even if they carry difficult memories? can we conquer the things that scare us--or, better yet, be scared and act anyway? how do we place blame on invisible subjects--and how do we grieve without blaming anyone at all?
the final installation of the smiths-verse saga.

Summary
Have you ever looked at an old man in a cartoon show targeted for kids and wondered “Hm… I wonder how many times this guy (who only has 5 fingers {LAME!!}) almost died?”
Well, WONDER NO MORE!!! Here in [Dumb Ways To (Almost) Die] you will find most of Grunkle Stan’s NDEs!! But what is an ‘NDE’ you may ask- why, it’s short for [Near Death Expirience(s)] Of course!!This fanfiction is centred over what would happen if the elder twins weren’t such little ***** and actually ******* held hands!! WOW!! Crazy! It is also based on the fandom’s dire need to see this old man in pain! Constantly! And needing to see this old man’s brother see his brother in pain! For guilt! It’s yummy!!
As the setting is the [Bill-Cipher Zodiac] the characters involved in this series (written by various writers in the fandom) may consist of: Shooting Star, Pine Tree, ?, Ice Ice Babyy and other characters only very specific people care about!“I'm a very relentless individual and have a lot more insanity coming”

Summary
Tenna still feels a prickle of shame when he remembers all the paystubs he failed to fulfill, even after he auctioned off everything in the studio. And yeah, maybe it’s not exactly because he didn’t fulfill his promises, and mostly because the final piece of publicity he got was less than positive when it covered all the particulars of his… business practices. To put it mildly, ‘Mr. SCAM Tenna?’ painted him in a rather bad light. Besides, he had never been the real scammer prowling the streets. If they'd wanted a better pun and a proper target for their witch-hunt, they could've gone with: ‘SCAMTON G. SP—
Oh well, it's not like there’s a lot of people who’d recognise Tenna these days. Every few months, he gets a cheque in the mail for his residuals; an extremely humbling reminder that hardly anyone knows his name or watches his show anymore. Not only does he live in the middle of nowhere — no offence, kind of — but he’s retired his suit, retired his brand, retired his everything, and traded it in for sweaters and vests instead. The closest he gets to reliving his crumbled stardom is whenever he’s addressed as Mr. Tenna while directing the school’s yearly musical.

Summary
The door banged open so violently that it left cracks in the wall it struck, sending chunks of stone showering to the floor.
In the doorway, darkness loomed.
“Spamton,” said the shadow at the door.

While at a studio-wide party, Tenna is urged by Spamton to stop by his living quarters for a quick change of clothes. He tells himself it'll be quick, but the closer they get to home, the more apparent his fatigue and overstimulation become—and the next thing he knows, it's noon the next day.
