    Summary

    Many people and drones outside of Earth know of it's destruction, seen the videos and learned about it through various ways.

    None of them understand what it was like living through it though, watching their world smothered by ash, metal, and flesh.

    These are the stories of those who did, both man and machine. Some of them were lucky, most of them not.

    Regardless, everything here is a consequence of fatal errors, misguided anger, and one little drone who was at the wrong place, wrong time.

    Summary

    Tessa lives under the stifling oppression of her psychotic mother and her alcoholic boor of a father at the Elliott manor. All she has to keep her company are her four little worker drones — J, V, N, and Cyn. J has been with her the longest and she couldn't imagine life without her best friend and her constant protector.

    Everything changes one night during dinner with her parents. Tessa chooses her drones over the wellbeing of human civilisation. Who knows what manner of horrors she has unwittingly unleashed upon the world? Can J save her from the resurrected one?

    Summary

    What If:

    Tessa James Elliot had at least one good parent? If James was actually a nice dude, loved his daughter, and respected dronekind? Also, if he already knew two of Tessa's new drones personally??

    What If:

    There were two versions of J running about, a disassembly drone clone, and the original J who managed to escape to Copper-9 before the destruction of Earth?
    How about two solvers, The Absolute Solver and The Absolute Paradox??

    And if Alice was a complete psychopath, made Lizzy her honorary daughter, at the expense of her son Beau? What if the Doorman's were all at each other's throats, right as Doll and Thad get their own family back together?

    ...

    All of these questions, and more will be answered!
    This is both a PREQUEL and SEQUEL to my previous fic from the same story, "It Was All Yellow", so go read that fic before starting this one.
    Context will be needed, especially once the sequel bits, ACT FOUR starts! ACT THREE is the prequel stuff!

    There will be three phases in total, split into five acts, SGIASC is the second phase, and will be longer than IWAY (Phase One)!

    Art featured in every chapter! As time goes by, more will be added!

    Summary

    Before Copper-9 and the Core Collapse, on Earth, there was a wealthy family known as the Elliotts. They lived in a fancy manor in a swamp, where they raised (and abused) their only child Tessa. The teenager's only friends were the drones she repaired from the mounds outside of her house, whom all had their... own complicated relationships.

    If things were different, then perhaps those complications would have remained... But small events are happening that will perhaps bring them all closer. To clear up the tension between a few of them and make them stand stronger. All it takes is a few small changes to bring friends closer together... and become a nice, proper family of misfits.

    Changes are coming for the young Elliott and her favorite drones... all while ignorant of their inevitable future. But who knows how these changes might affect what comes after that?

    Summary

    It had once been said that oil made the world turn, more appropriately the once CEO of the robotics and mining company JCJENSON had drunkenly said to one of his servant that oil made his world turn. And even if now his body was probably dust, his statement seemed to hold some truth.

    On an exoplanet far, far away from the once blue world, a group of drones found themselves running out of the precious black liquid, vital for some of them.

    And for Uzi and her friends, the only solution to their predicament may be to go back to a place they would have rather stayed away from.

    Earth.

    And if only they were the only one on its trajectory.

    Summary

    Tessa wavered in place even as J rushed from the room. Her parents or N. The parents who had a child because it was expected of them, or her first friend. The parents who never seemed to stop scolding her, or the beloved brother who never failed to make her smile. The parents who left cuts and bruises on her skin, or the drone who faithfully patched them up.

    It was really no choice at all.

    (or, Tessa and N navigate the apocalypse after Tessa rescues N instead of confronting Cyn at the gala)

    Summary

    Serial Designation J is, to put it mildly, the best of Tessa's rescued drones. Her methods and practice improvements have revolutionized life at the Elliot Manor, and she even gets begrudging compliments from Tessa's unsympathetic parents. The only things J struggles with are bringing the other drones up to her high standards and getting as much of Tessa's attention as she deserves. Luckily both of those have resolved themselves: the other drones stand frozen in the library, or sit tied to a tree outside. Now, J and Tessa stand before the doors of the banquet hall hosting the gala dinner, sword and gun in hand. All that's left is to enter, deal with whatever Cyn is, and J will save the day, finally win over the Elliots, and have Tessa all to herself.
    It doesn't work out that way.
    "Giggle."

    Summary

    V’s existence was nothing worth mentioning.

    Quiet, small, and easily overlooked. She kept to herself, speaking only to J and Tessa on occasion, though even calling those interactions a friendship felt like a stretch. Life was simple. Life was dull.

    But things change for her when the Elliot household is gifted a Disassembly Drone—a towering, advanced machine built for dismantling units. N is everything she is not: tall, imposing, outspoken, and possessed of a personality no drone should have.

    And she couldn’t help but be drawn to it.

    She was built to serve, and he was built to take things apart. Yet with every smile and unexpected kindness, he begins to piece something together inside her instead.

    Summary

    Or: After that dreadful gala, J and her merry manor members somehow find themselves as humans in a world that doesn't seem to have eldritch horrors. 'Doesn't seem.'

    Life as a drone in the Elliot Manor is terrible. Life as something of an adoptive daughter there is better: fewer beatings, more free time, more spending power, better fashion choices, and legal personhood. It's literally J's dreams come true. All she has to deal with is V being on the warpath, James and Louisa Elliot, their many many enemies, her behavior toward N, bullet drop, lingering psychological trauma, climbing the social ladder, how exactly this all happened... Oh, and the inevitable drone uprising. But that last one definitely won't take a slice off her life in this new world.

    Direct sequel to "Where My Mixed Up Life Could Mend." Otherwise standalone.

    Summary

    "N, don't you feel like..Cyn is off?" She tilted her head, her visor displaying a concerned look.

     

    His eyebrows furrowed, a confused look etched on his visor. "What do you mean by that, V?" He questioned, "I think Cyn's just strange with how she talks."

     

    The maid fidgeted with the hem of her skirt, "It's just that.. She feels eerie and disturbing, like she knows more than she lets on."

     

    The air surrounding them suddenly felt ten times colder in N's opinion, yes—he has noticed. But he always brushed it off—repressing that kind of worry.

    OR:

    N is rescued and saved by Tessa after being thrown out and labeled as "defective", soon enough—a new worker drone, namely Cyn—joins their little group. But what if this seemingly fragile drone is the cause of their end? And what if—this drone infects their own with a program that'll change everything?

    P.S — I have no plot for this fic, it's just gonna be building the plot as I writeꉂꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ◍) also WOW the title is hella long
