Summary
She remembers waking up, getting breakfast, and waiting for day to start. She does not remember falling asleep, but she does remember waking up again. Only this time, it's cold, her body is wrong (yet somehow right), and she's suspended in what feels like egg whites. Oh, and her egg-mate? Yeah, that's Ghost. The Knight. Protagonist of hit indie video game Hollow Knight. And she... appears to be in the title role. Yippee.
Alright, comprehensive plan is this:
1. don't die
2. don't let Ghost die
3. fix everythingThis'll be fun.
Heavily inspired by FreakOfYourNature's A Not-So-Hollow Knight (self insert dies painfully and for some reason reincarnates as the Hollow Knight, then proceeds to obliterate any sense of coherence Hallownest had left), but with two key differences: One, said self insert is infinitely less aggressive, and Two, the Pale King is actually a decent person. And maybe... maybe he could even become a decent father.

Summary
Things… change.
Ghost supposes that many would probably say that they get better. They do get better, don’t they? Yes, they do. Things change, and they are better. The Infection is gone, and Hollow is safe, and Hornet is happy, and so Ghost is fine. Perhaps they are selfish, and they mourn a dying world that they can never return to, and they are more alone than ever before, but they’ll get over it.
…And it’s not as if anyone will notice if they don’t.

Ghost goes back in time, kills the Radiance, and sets everything right. They tell no one, and do it on their own. It is only after their family is happy, and the kingdom is safe, and the Abyss is soothed to sleep, that they realize just how lonely it is as the last remaining piece of a future never to be. -

Summary
The world of Pharloom is... a LOT different than the one of Hallownest. The currency has changed, the beliefs, the... ruler. There's no Pale King, no Dreamers, no... strings, ironically. Hornet isn't obligated to do anything anymore. Not if she doesn't want to.
Well- she might be obligated to get her siblings back to a world that actually has excess Soul for them to consume but- well. You know.
In which: Hollow and Ghost care more than Hornet will ever know, and our Silk Princess finally gets something soft
