Summary
Mere weeks after escaping the Minch household, "Picky" - who'd really rather you just call him Peter - joins his bestie's brother's friends on a trip to North Cascades National Park. To say he feels like a seventh wheel would be the understatement of the century.
"It'll be good for ya, dummy," Tracy teases. Tuggin' at his hoodie drawstrings. Home lays two thousand impossible miles behind them. If she can smile about it, shouldn't he be doin' the same?
"If you say so," he sighs.

Summary
"Being courageous doesn't mean y'never get scared." She stroked his hair when she said so. Answered his teary eyes with her fondest smile. Then leaned in close, to kiss his bruises better. "It means ya keep goin' anyways. Even if you're so scared, y'just wanna hunker down and call it quits."
Link finds himself trapped in the shape of the thing he fears most. Thankfully, fate hasn't left him to bear his curse alone.

Summary
"I know about Mewtwo."
The boy braces himself just to utter the name. Blaine takes the recoil, too. His veiny old hand clenches against the doorway. In the porch light's piss-yellow flicker, he finds scrapes and scabs marring his visitor's arms. A ruddy jacket, its edges tattered. An Ultra Ball clasped in both trembling gloves.
"It's hurt," Red says. "It needs your help."

Intermission AU by 2thpaste

Summary
A modern day college (n' sometimes high school) AU, set in The Sunflower State. It's about growing up, friends & family, trauma & healing, and all those other Mother themes we know n' love. Exploring how these characters might mature as people and process real world problems, if freed from the constraints of Nintendo RPGs with cataclysmic stakes. Expect grounded non-magical spins on events from the games, some variety in presentation & tone between fics, and a whole lotta fast food. Named for that one fic, the first one. And how getting back into my favorite game series threw me into an extended creative intermission the way Kumatora throws a punch - which is to say kinda clumsily but with great exuberance.
These fics are all written to work as standalone pieces, and can be read in any order. If you start on a later entry, or if you only read one or some of 'em, you won't be missing any crucial context. I just like to keep 'em all organized in the same thrift store bargain bin. 🌻

Summary
The guilt, recently, is getting to be too much. It isn't justifiable, to commit so many atrocities simply because he's afraid for his life. The doctor enacts a small means of rebellion...
An adjusted flight path into a scheduled lightning strike; a commandeering which won't be registered to any logs. Accidents happen, so they say.

Summary
As it turns out, Yugo's assessment that Dennis "broke a shitload of bones" wasn't an exaggeration. It has to be the most disheveled, the most damaged, Yuri's ever seen him, in all their years of knowing each other.
(Of course, is your boyfriend supposed to look good after trying to kill himself? After being fished out of a river like a splintering piece of driftwood?)
Dennis jumped off a bridge last week. Yuri finally visits him in the hospital. They don't know how to talk about it.

Summary
Amongst a vine-like tangle of cords and wires, an angelic machine and a shard of the devil have a conversation.
(Or, haha hey Aporia and Yuri have a lot in common actually. Isn't that interesting? I thought that was interesting)
