Summary
It goes like this: Sophomore Year rolls around, and Kristen is doing great. She's got a great girlfriend, a new god, a new house, and an awesome party. There are a few faults in this happiness, like how she can't seem to balance any of the things in her life that aren't world-endingly cataclysmic, or how she always feels like she's failing everyone, or how even with a new god, her questions are driving her to aimlessness. But that's fine! All she has to do is hold faith that everything will work out. She's totally got this.
It goes like this: Sophomore Year rolls around, and Riz is happier than ever. He's handling his magic, he's maintaining friends that aren't his babysitter for the first time in living memory, and school is a lot more fun when you aren't trying to find your missing friend or stop an evil dragon from conquering the world. There are a few snags in the glow of satisfaction, like how he has never had this many friends before, and isn't totally sure he's doing it right, or that he can't manage to figure out what the appeal of sex is, or that he still doesn't know who his dad is. But that's fine! All he has to do is keep ignoring all the things he doesn't want to think about. He's totally got this.

It would be difficult to describe the horrors Kristen, Lucy and Mr. Buddy Dawn escaped. She suspects their experience was far truer to life than that of the others -

Summary
"I don't want to go!" Adaine had cried, when Aelwyn all but dragged her out of the house. "I don't like the forest!"
"Will you stop being a baby about it?" Aelwyn had scolded her. "We're just going to the edge of town. I want to look at the fauna myself, it's what researchers do."
Adaine had dragged her feet the whole way there, but she didn't have a choice; Aelwyn was tasked with watching her dumb baby sister, which meant she had free reign to bring Adaine anywhere she wanted to go, and it's not like their parents would care that they were outside by themselves.
"The forest keeps giving me nightmares," Adaine had protested glumly when Aelwyn plopped them both down in front of the giant barrier made of thorns and weaving branches. "I don't like it."
~~
or: in a world where the abernants moved to arborly instead of elmville, adaine is raised by the woods and aelwyn is left with the only memory of her baby sister. vaguely written for spooktober except im not following prompts im just writing spooky stuff

Summary
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
-Proverbs 3:5-6When Kristen was having a hard day, this is the verse that came to mind most often. It’s the one she’s repeating under her breath now, as she dies in a highschool cafeteria, surrounded by the corn that should have, by all accounts, been blessed with Helio’s light and protected or healed her rather than harmed her. It’s her first set of dying words, though no one else would ever know it.
OR
An exploration of the older Applebees siblings' relationships with religion and what it means to find yourself in a culture of conformity

Summary
Adaine has become used to “dreaming”. Ever since the Nightmare King’s forest and reuniting with Aelwyn, she’s used her trance time to revisit her mind, exploring the memories inside. This has caused some changes to it, like her childhood home now being connected to Mordred Manor, but they aren’t unexpected. They’re what she’s used to.
What she isn’t used to, however, is seeing herself with glowing blue eyes sobbing celestial energy over her mind’s Mordred kitchen.
or,
There’s a universe where the Nightmare King won with the assist of the Bad Kids, and the other where he was defeated by them. The Adaine in the former universe reaches out to the Adaine in the latter universe to help right the wrongs in her timeline. It goes as you’d expect.Series
