A bunch of oneshots i wrote during my VERY LONG WRITING HIATUS about this multidimensional traveller, this depressed anesthesiologist and the traveller’s bird sibling in the Citrusverse’s Epilouge arc Starlit Voyage.
Trigger warnings in the Author’s Notes because it varies with the oneshot, but if you're sensitive to topics about shit mental heath, proceed with caution.Series

IbisPaint X scoffs, absentmindedly rubbing a dried-up clump of acrylic paint smeared on the side of the previously-spotless work table, chipping off the surface in little bits of color. She grimaces when she sits up and gazes down on the small sprawl of colorful chips on the floor.
“Geez, Photoshop will murder me if he sees the table like this again, or the janitor.”

Summary
Shadow expects only him and the stars when he drives his van to camp in an island near the Starfall Islands. The advantages of living in a van helped him remain unbothered within the wilderness when not even Tails' communicator could ring his phone.
But stars aren't supposed to glow in daylight, or be spiky, or send out blasts of Chaos energy while fighting titans in the sky.
Simply put, Shadow spectates, then takes matters into his own hands.(TAKES PLACE IN THE ENDING OF SONIC FRONTIERS)

You can throw your life away, just not at my expense,
You're not the son I raised."

In which, it's been months since he bid farewell to his spirit companions, to Vixen, who was going back to his hometown for summer, and Inka, who in a moment of reflection, offered herself and her bloodsoaked hands to the law, and vanished without a trace.
So why is it now, when he was wallowing in his loneliness, he closes his eyes to rest, then next he wakes to a familiar, mutually detested sociopath?(READ THE DANG TAGS FOR WARNINGS)

Summary
Hamilton was a light in the dark. A constant flame that persisted even in the harshest of winters. He was the sun in the sky, that he should rise and bring light wherever he went, burning with a passion that never waned, never faltered. To Laurens, he was the greatest source of warmth in his life—a precious, persevering fire.
Laurens was an enigma. An air of mystery surrounded him, that he would present himself one way while keeping so many other sides of him in the dark. Laurens would surprise him in sudden bursts of valor and bravery, charm and passion, mystery and intrigue. To Hamilton, he was as dazzling and handsome and fleeting as the night sky—as if he might disappear at any moment.
A collection of vignettes (mini ficlets) revolving around their Sun/Moon dynamic

Summary
"For loving her felt like loving himself from a perspective he never knew."
A battle took place between the Ancient and Beast cookies, temporarily allowing the heroes to determine the fate of the olden cookies. Pure Vanilla Cookie knew they couldn’t depend on seals forever–they had to end the evil within. The best way was to offer companionship, even though neither side wanted to do it.
But among the Ancients, Dark Cacao Cookie seemed content the most, uncharacteristically. He loved her so much, yet knew there was nothing he could do for his apathetic counterpart. So, he decided to cherish the moments they share, no matter how futile they are for Mystic Flour Cookie. This was the life of the fatherly resolute, and motherly apathetic.
Alas, the era of peace wasn’t going to last forever. The Dark Cacao Kingdom, faced with the corpse-riding Moldswept Crisis, had to unite as one again with familiar faces making their appearance. But faced with their fated end born out of unalive creatures and burning emotions, could they survive this nightmare?
Or: Mystic Flour Cookie accidentally "mothers" a nation into mental well-being, including the lovedrunk king.
