    Summary

    Iridium blinked awake in their ship, staring out over - it was not the solar system they were used to.

    It wasn't a solar system at all. They couldn't see a sun, only a collection of spaceships and a Dark Bramble, all lit by each other's lights and the light of a sky more full of stars than they'd ever seen before.

     

    (or - after the Eye of the Universe, the inhabitants of the Outer Wilds System find themself in a universe quite a bit like ours. There's an adjustment period.)

    Summary

    "Our new theory is that there were two distinct categories – "
    "We have a whole list of possible, like, culturally-significant splits, but – "
    " – make more sense to be societal roles or some – "

    "Can you two chill?" Marl asked loudly. Their gaze was still unimpressed, but there was the beginning of a smirk tugging at their lips. "Take a breath. Sit down. You don't need to be climbing in Riebeck's lap to talk weird fish society roles, or whatever it is you're ranting about like that."

    Have you ever wondered how Hearthians came up with gendered pronouns?
    Have you ever wished to read about the process in excrutiatingly specific linguistics details?
    No? Can I interest you in some worlbuilding, then? Campfire banter? Anything?

    Summary

    The Hatchling experiences a childhood memory.

    (Edit: I realized this puts Feldspar's disappearance a little further in the past than I officially consider canon, but it was worth it for the theming. That being said...space and time are very linked, and Dark Bramble is very distorted. Maybe from Felds' POV, it *has* been less time spent surviving there than it has from Timber Hearth...much to consider.)

    (Or, y'know, Hearthians just mature faster than humans. That's probably the simpler explanation. ::})

    Summary

    Dear Little Ghost,

    Is that an appropriate name for you, anymore? I thought it was when we first met, if only because I was certain that all of your kind were dead.
