    Summary

    After the Unknowing, Jonathan Sims awakes in the hospital. He is alone, and that is not a surprise. There is no one left who cares.

    A few days later, he is in Artefact Storage when a disturbance occurs... he does not expect what crawls out of the mirror.

    ***
    Basically, Michael is back and he is fully willing to put his reality-warping powers to use. He doesn't bother to explain what he's doing half the time, but it's fine.

    Yes, the title is from No Longer You from Epic the Musical.

    This is a fluffy crack fic with some character study disguised as an angst fest, I swear it gets better fast.

    A direct result of the emotional pain I experienced finishing Seasons Four and Five. I have written 8000 words in maybe five days. Because I refuse to accept reality and these are MY weirdos now. We're resurrecting EVERYONE, bitch! Hang on tight.

    Summary

    Mythology has to come from somewhere, right? Maybe it’s cultural ideals, or messages, or interpretations of the world to make it make sense. But, what if there was far more truth to these myths than we thought?

    The Dread Powers, now known as Smirke’s 14 and Adelard‘s Addendum, have existed since the dawn of fear. Ever since the first thing felt afraid. So, what would happen if our forgotten histories were influenced by these Dread Powers?

    This is the first of these tales, the story of the beginning, of the birth of the gods, the true tales of what we now know as the mythology of Ancient Greece.

    Summary

    Elias Bouchard is just barely making it. His new job is less than ideal and his creepy boss isn't making it better. But he needs the money and having a (hopefully) steady job isn't such a bad idea either.
    But it is the Magnus Institute and very shortly, the Fears decide they want to make themselves known.

    (a.k.a my idea of Elias and Gertrude's experience when they worked here. It is mostly centered around Elias though and his work in storage (I've decided he worked there). It is written like a podcast transcript so apologies before hand if that isn't your cup of tea. Please enjoy)

    Summary

    Spencer takes the bus. Normally, this isn't a problem.

    But it's raining, pouring, even.

    The kind of rain that soaks and chills you right down to the bone. So he has to take the bus.

    Summary

    Make your choices. Face your fear. Date your colleagues. Hug Martin. Punch Elias. Enjoy Sky Blue. Or other combinations*.

    A love letter to the fandom in the form of a perfectly serious, utterly indulgent fanservice self-insert Archive simulator, using the ChoiceOf game system.

    (*You can't punch Martin.)
    (You also can't quite kiss a full-out monstery monster so far, but I'm working on it.)

    Summary

    When a Coil mercenary triggers, she finds herself in an unusual situation, with an unusual power. Stripped of her skills as a soldier, with new abilities filling in the hole left behind, she finds herself increasingly pulled further and further by her desire for vengeance and the hunger of her new power.
    She is not a good person. It is hard to become a mercenary as a good person. But she may find herself becoming much worse.

    I wasn't sure what to put for the summary to be honest. This is mostly writing practise for me - I have enjoyed reading for a long while and always wanted to put words to page, but I wanted to work on it before trying any of the worlds I have built.
    For this reason, please review critically (if I get any readers, that is). Even simple things like weird wordings will help me a lot.

    Summary

    You've been falling apart, and it seems nobody even noticed.

    It started with the fucking worms.

    And it never stopped.

    Summary

    Just a collection of statements that were totally in the archives. No spoilers, not very cohesive. Just wanted to write about the fears because this podcast has consumed every waking thought of mine. I make no promises that these end up great, but the ideas need to go somewhere.
