    Summary

    After the Skip Button ending, the Narrator is reset with fragmented memories, a memory wipe in-progress, and a terror of being alone. He makes the excellent life decision to repress as much as possible and get on with business as usual, with the concession of seeing Stanley in-person.

    --

    “The Story,” says the Narrator, although he’s still not letting go. “We must get back to it.” His arms don’t seem to be moving.

    “Yeah, no,” says Stanley, drawing away a little in his embrace, regarding him critically at the length of his arm.

    Summary

    Stanley escaped the Parable and ended up giving his statement to the Archives in the Gertrude Era. Jon reads it and has some thoughts. Don't really have much more to say about it. Rated Teen and up for the existential themes of constant looping, skip button/epilogue stuff, and Zending.

    Summary

    "And here it is. Go ahead and give it a shot."
    Stanley's throat felt dry, despite the man never having talked in his entire life. This was too familiar, he knew he had experienced this before, and he hated it.

    He didn't listen to the Narrator's excessive rambles to annoy him into pushing the button, and instead sat down, tears forming.

    "Here, we'll just pretend that I've just begun an interminable monolog-- Stanley?" The disembodied voice had softened, and Stanley found himself focusing on it.

     

    OR, The author hates this ending- because of how terrifying/ sad it is- and rewrites it to be more nicer.

    Summary

    “Give the people what they want I always say! Not enough emotional impact? Well, let’s see them say that once this ending is released.”

    ‘Is this… a dating game?’ Stanley wearily thought.

    Summary

    Stanley had always wondered about the Zending. If the starry dome was the Narrator's favorite place to be, why was the only way out killing himself?
    And why did such a large room, with such a large staircase, even exist? It looked made to jump off of.
    But no way was that what the Narrator wanted the Zending to be like, right?...

    Summary

    Stanley freezes. The Narrator does too. For a moment no one lifts a finger or says anything.

    Stanley reaches out his hand slowly and then the voice comes back to life.
    “Stanley, I think we ought to get on with the Story, yes? Whatever point you were trying to make, I think you've maahhhhh-”

    A delighted smile spreads across Stanley's face and he repeats the action, his hand gliding over the Office's wallpaper as it elicits another breathy gasp from the speakers.

    ~

    Or: The Office is horny. Stanley tries to help.

    Summary

    W.D. Gaster exists outside of time and space- and, serendipitously, so does The Narrator, who's a huge fan of Deltarune's lack of choices for the player and ecstatic to meet his favorite indie game creator. Conversations about silent protagonists, freedom, choice, love, and solitude-induced madness ensue.

    or: i went insane over two quirky meta indie games with themes of choice and free will at the same time and the stars aligned. these guys both need a hug <3

    Summary

    He felt, well, cold. Yes, in the temperature sense, but also in a different way. His hands were the least of his worries when it felt like the chill was coming from inside him. This hollow, cavernous feeling that sat like an overfilled balloon in his chest. But his chest wasn’t quite the right place, it was somewhere far more unreachable between his diaphragm and his ribs, lost in the space between his heart and his spine. It was as if the smallest shard of ice had made its home in this vulnerable and unknowable place. But, there was no time to linger on such a small little space - and he was certain The Narrator would only tolerate his lack of story progression for so long, so Stanley continued out of his office.

    or

    Stanley is really lonely and The Narrator wants to fix that.
