    Summary

    Things… change.

    Ghost supposes that many would probably say that they get better. They do get better, don’t they? Yes, they do. Things change, and they are better. The Infection is gone, and Hollow is safe, and Hornet is happy, and so Ghost is fine. Perhaps they are selfish, and they mourn a dying world that they can never return to, and they are more alone than ever before, but they’ll get over it.

    …And it’s not as if anyone will notice if they don’t.

    -
    Ghost goes back in time, kills the Radiance, and sets everything right. They tell no one, and do it on their own. It is only after their family is happy, and the kingdom is safe, and the Abyss is soothed to sleep, that they realize just how lonely it is as the last remaining piece of a future never to be.

    Summary

    “Hornet? Like, from Silksong?” she said, eyes widened. There was no way this was real. “I’m in Pharloom?”

    Silver laughed, the pain in her side momentarily forgotten. “This is amazing! Wait, no. This is, uh, pretty bad actually.” Her voice lowered into a mumble. “All of the endings are super dangerous and… the Void… Grand Mother Silk… ooh, this is bad, isn’t it?”

    She glanced around with the look of someone who knew it wasn’t going to end well. “This is, like, really bad. Pharloom ends up getting wrecked no matter what you do.”

    OR

    A human girl falls into the world of Silksong, as per the title.
    The thing is, she's read the wiki, watched the playthroughs and knows how it all ends.
    But Hornet doesn't know that.

    Summary

    After the demise of the Radiance, Hornet and the Pure Vessel have no destiny to work towards anymore. The Knight desires their own death, despite Hornet's best efforts, but everything gets even more complicated after the Ghost inexplicably comes back from the dead. With Dirtmouth's choice to join the Grimm Troupe, the three siblings pick a direction and start walking... only discover a new city full of intrigue and danger, with all the politicking that Hornet had wanted to leave behind - politicking the Pure Vessel was all too familiar with. As for the ghost, it merely enjoyed its stint in the land of the living, and wants to experience more of it.

    Summary

    “Dreams can be sweet as honey.” A firm voice echoed in the small room where three small figures were found. One, speaking. Another, listening. The third, ignoring. “She shows what the victim wants. She manipulates until they no longer notice her grip on their life. Draining them. Killing them slowly. If one finds the will to wake up from her grasp, will they ever sleep again?”

    Hollow, along with its four surviving siblings, has been told this story by their father from the moment they crawled out of the abyss. Now, there are only two of the experiments left to listen, Hollow and Ghost.

    “Hollow,” It raised its head at its father's words in attention. “She has claimed many lives before you. You are the only vessel that can end her terror. Being born of void, you are the only one I made who was truly hollow. This is your destiny.”

    Out of them all, Father chose it. It supposed it should be honored. But… was it ready to be sent to UA?

    Summary

    Lace stood up and waved her hands around incredulously. “Hold on, hold on! You can’t just jump into battle without explaining this sorcery, spider. What on earth was that??” She pointed to empty air that once housed a Hornet-sized cocoon. “Ages of roaming this accursed kingdom, and not a single record ever told me that Weavers could do that!”

    OR

    An average Silksong true ending playthrough, but bosses and characters can see and react to Hornet dying and respawning

    Summary

    After five years of being stuck in a dream, a vessel named Ghost wakes up in an unfamiliar place with a strange talisman in their claws. They quickly get knocked out by a guard, but not before they see a flash of a memory that's not their own—and has the scent of a missing sibling. And that talisman activates when it comes in contact with the memory. Meanwhile, a princess named Hornet secretly watches a guard knock out an intruder who shares the scent of a lost sibling—and she can't stop herself from rescuing them.

    Ghost's talisman has just activated a trail of memories that only four can see—Ghost, Hornet, a former knight named Senti, and an unwanted heir named Phantom. Each has been desperate to find a sibling (or siblings) who disappeared five years ago, and as it turns out, this memory trail was left by those very siblings. Following the memories, these four must work together to travel across the kingdoms of Hallownest and Pharloom and uncover the truth—and they will set off a chain of events that will shake this world to its core.

    Or: I forced my current four favorite characters (Ghost, Hornet, Phantom, and Second Sentinel) to party up, then sent them on a quest to find their siblings

    Summary

    He was always curious about what happened when you died. Is there an afterlife? A warm nothingness? Or does it all just…end? Heaven or hell? Purgatory? He once imagined that perhaps belief influenced what happened after death. Maybe your soul was sent to some 5th dimensional space beyond time, where mortality is relative and belief influences reality.

    What he was absolutely confident in, was that he was definitely going to hell.

    ...

    Why is the floor wet and covered in bodies?

    ----

    Priority Numero Uno: Don't die again, idiot.

    Priority 2: Climb.

    Priority 3: Get gud.

    AKA: local goober transmigrates into the deepest pit of the Abyss, hatching from a strange black egg- WAIT, THIS IS JUST LIKE THOSE OTHER HK/SI FICS!
