Summary
Three years ago, on John Egbert's birthday, the world ended. Three years ago, Jade Harley and Vriska Serket vanished alongside billions of others. Three years ago, the apocalypse arrived, transforming everything and revealing much that was hidden to those who remained.
Three years ago, the meteors (mostly!) missed Houston, and that's where John's headed today. In Houston, Rose Lalonde searches for washed-up traces of magic, warily overseen by Kanaya and her old friend Dave. In Texas, the newly dubbed "alternatives" maintain a newfound alliance with the humans they saved--and a wary truce with the Hunter forces that once kept all these creatures of fable and fairytale a secret from the world of man.
And here, in Houston, the world is about to change once again.
An urban fantasy monsterstuck AU featuring the beta kids, beta trolls, and their guardians.
An ongoing podfic.

Summary
"A light starts blinking in the corner of your eye, drawing your attention towards your idle monitor just before an incessant beeping starts up. The noise thankfully doesn’t begin to drive you out of your mind before a few clicks on your keyboard brings the screen to life. The beeping goes quiet but the light continues to flash and a shortcut on the home screen blinks at you. You navigate into the program that connects you to the observatory in New York and you look at the recorded anomaly - anomalies! - and a grin slowly stretches across your face. “Yes!” you cheer and throw your arms up, spinning away in your desk chair. “Finally!” When your foggy mind absorbs the rest of the relevant information, however, your stomach sinks like a stone in water.
There were three meteors within a week of landing which is… Well, it’s certainly not expected and you can feel the headache coming on as you imagine trying to explain to the twenty-somethings that surprise! You’re gonna be parents after all. Yeah, that’ll be great."
(Or, a Post-Scratch AU where Dirk and Roxy land at the same time as Jake and Jane. Oh, and some more familiar faces show up in the Alpha Session. Or, an AU just about as convoluted as Homestuck itself.)

Summary
If there were any scientists left alive, they would agree with the wildly popular opinion that while 2021 sucked, what came afterwards deserved to be taken out to the back and shot.
It was subtle at first, a few cases here and there, nothing really too dire. Until it was everywhere. "Psychovirales" as it became known as was, in all simplicity, the classical, end of the world, zombie virus.
Your name is ROSE LALONDE, and you are much too tired for this.
(This work is a revised and reupload of "my god, it's full of stars". Updates will be most Tuesdays and Fridays.)

Summary
“Hey,” Bro snapped, both his voice and his fingers to call Dave’s attention to him. Like he was a dog. Dave’s head turned at the sound. “I’m talking to you.”
Dave only glared at him hard, so fiercely he might’ve turned him to stone if he could. He could feel the weight of the skin hanging under his tired eyes as he did so, the beads of sweat dripping down his forehead. Quick, grisly images flashed through his mind on how he would kill him. Swift and fast. Slow and tantalizing. The possibilities were endless in his fantasies but close to zero in reality.
Bro, unsatisfied with Dave’s look of defiance, continued to push him on. “Why the fuck did you come here?”
They stared at each other for far too long to ever be comfortable.
“...I wanted to ask you something.” Dave answered. Plain and simple.
“Tell me then,” Bro asked.

Summary
Your first katana was flimsy plastic with easily-chipped paint that flecked off onto your grubby kid hands and stuck. You like to think that your sweat deformed it, shaped it, because you slept with it clutched in both hands and woke up with it glued to your skin. It couldn’t cut for shit. It was light, hollow – it snapped on the first honest-to-god blow.
If the katana was his way of teaching you how to fight, then what happened on your eleventh birthday was his way of teaching you how to fuck. Bro always preferred the hands-on approach.

Summary
You felt strongly tied to another being and like a whole new one all at once. You two were smarter, stronger, and just overall better than either of you ever were as separate people. As depressing as it may sound, it was true. And you could feel just how much happier the both of you were together — intertwined.
But now you are by yourself again.
