    Summary

    "He's regressed, Allison. He's not thinking like a 30 year old man. He's functioning like a four year old. And four year olds don't sit quietly in the snow for an hour without getting scared or hurt."

    Allison scoffed. "He's not really a kid. This whole thing is just'"

    "Just what?" Five's tone turned deadly calm. "Inconvenient for you?"

    There was a pause so much so even Luther winced.
    "That's not what I meant" Allison said, quieter.

    "It's just... I have a daughter, Five. I miss her every day. I think about Claire every second. Do you know what it's like to live in a world where your child doesn't even exist anymore? I lost everything. And now I'm supposed to mother Viktor too?"

    Five stared at her. "He's not asking you to be his mother. He's asking you to care."

    "Maybe I don't have any care left, okay?" Allison shouted, voice cracking. "Maybe I gave all of that to Claire, and there's nothing left for anyone else!"

    Silence. Not even Klaus made a joke.
    Five stepped forward, voice low and precise.

    "And that. that right there is why you were the worst person to leave him with."

    Summary

    Vanya finds herself alone in a new timeline, marked by goodbyes and guilt, where each sibling departs, leaving her with the weight of not having prevented the disasters of the past – from the loss of her friendship with Allison to her father's plans – and, reliving the pains of her childhood, she decides to forge her own path, defying a destiny that always seemed to condemn her.

    Summary

    “Nietzsche once said, 'Man is as a rope stretched between the animal and the superhuman. A rope over an abyss. It is a dangerous crossing. A dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting.'

    As much as you must strive for individual greatness — and strive you must, for it won't come to you of its own accord — you must also remember that there is no individual stronger than the collective. The ties that bind you together make you stronger than you are alone. They will make you impervious to the pain and hardship the world will thrust upon you. And believe me when I tell you life will be hard. It will be painful."

    - Sir Reginald Hargreeves, S1.E1 We Only See Each Other at Weddings and Funerals

    *

    What if Klaus woke up fashionably late for the post-Apocalypse? A tale of romance, survival, and saving the universe.

    *

    It'll take about five years for the team to regroup, during which I explore what's happening on Earth as well as the afterlife, plus five more years to escape their collective fate.

    December 2025: I've updated all the chapters (900 words added) and am working on chapter 12.

    Summary

    In which the book was a therapy assignment and Viktor has never taken care of himself except when he wrote it.

    OR

    There aren't enough Viktor sick fics and if I have to almost single handedly fill that void myself, I will.

    EDIT: I began writing this story (and posting) LONG before Elliot announced his transition, so Viktor's deadname and she/her pronouns are used. Because it also takes place long before his transition in the show, I'm keeping it, but I plan to have him transition in the story as soon as possible to stay respectful.

    Summary

    That’s how he found her. Crouching at the window from the fire escape, she glanced around the space, breath held hesitantly, waiting at the edge before she fully entered.

    Five would like to say that, for everything he had planned out, this wasn’t anything remotely close to what he’d been expecting.

    Following Five throughout TUA, with someone there to keep him from stabbing anyone (too badly) or neglecting every aspect of his health (sort of).

    Okay, it’s more of a relatively feral teenager throwing granola bars at him and calling him an asshole whilst bandaging bullet wounds. But it’s not like any other dynamic here is seriously weirder.

    Drabbles anywhere from 500-1800ish words. This started out as a writing exercise and then I had way too much fun with it. I hope you enjoy!

    (9/2024 Update: So, season 4 was a dumpster fire. Since I don't hate these characters and actually want to give them character arcs they deserve and not do whatever the fuck Blackman tried, I'll be rewriting s4 when we get there).

    Summary

    “I’m pregnant, but nice leather jacket.”

     

    Diego dropped it and grabbed her shoulders to keep her steady, and Vanya flinched a little when he leaned down to face her closer.

     

    “You’re fucking what?!” he whispered harshly.
    -
    or: Vanya gets pregnant when she's 21 and it changes (almost) everything.

    Summary

    All Five wanted to do was save his siblings from the Apocalypse. He didn’t realise he’d be saving them from himself.

    Or a very canon divergent AU where a thirteen year old Number Five ends up in the apocalypse, and the Temps Commission decides for that reason that he needs to die. Thus begins ten years of hell for Five and pushes him to escape the apocalypse in 2019 with enough time to figure out how the apocalypse begins and stop it before it happens.

    He hopes.

    Summary

    Viktor stood and watched as Ben and Jennifer (no, not his brother. Not Jennifer. The Cleanse) got closer and closer to their old home. He knew he had a chance to save the family, but would they let him? Would it work? He needed Five to bring Lila back to have any hope.

    This is how I would have written the ending for Season 4 of The Umbrella Academy (still mourning). Spoilers for S4 are included, so proceed at your own risk.
    Basically what I think would have happened if Viktor had taken the marigold from his siblings in order to save them.
    Sorry, this is my first time ever posting to AO3 or even writing fanfic, and I suck at summaries. Please give it a chance :)

    Summary

    What if five was actually there when Vanya was locking in the room instead of drinking and leaving Delores at the shopping centre.

    Or

    A cute comforting moment because I just started watching umbrella academy and I want my happiness back. I also don’t think Five would have been so okay with killing his sister so quickly.

    Summary

    Vanya hated it. Hated the fact that she could never play with her siblings when they went on missions, could never play with her siblings in general, all because she was labeled ordinary, weak, and defenseless. The only thing really special about her was her pills that her father made her take. For her supposed anxiety. Vanya glanced at her pills in her hand and scoffed. She didn't ever remember having anxiety, but, Vanya muses, she has been taken them so long, she hardly would know, would she?

    OR
    Vanya decides to go off her pills before Five runs away and this changes things.

    Summary

    He took in the sight of his sister. Long dark hair hiding her features, bangs that will forever be slightly too long, white shirt, dark grey dress, knee-high white stockings, black Mary Jane shoes and that same, boring Umbrella Academy blazer on top of it.

    The one thing she hated most about her life was eternalised in her death.

    Five could see every possibility of time, sometimes it seemed he was going insane.

    Summary

    Vanya is ordinary. She can’t control people, like her sister, or teleport, like her brother. But just because she’s ordinary doesn’t mean she has to be useless. She can help her siblings to be better, even if it hurts, even if, in the end, she must watch them walk away.

    Or: An AU in which Vanya is the last one left at the Umbrella Academy and, ultimately, pays the price for it.

    Or: I make Vanya even more of a martyr than she already is, Reginald even more of an abusive asshole than he already is, and everyone else even more clueless than they already are.
