    Summary

    After a self-sacrifice gone wrong, The Thorn is left wandering The Long Quiet with no one to guide her. On the verge of giving in, she finds exactly what she needed to see:

    A lone poppy flower, growing alone in the void.

    If that flower can survive on its own, why can't she? All her life she's yearned for freedom, will she enchain herself again just because she's alone in the world? No, of course not.

    Donning a new outlook (and outfit), the newly formed Wayfinder's memory promptly gets wiped and is placed on a path in the woods...

    ...Where she learns that the Hero who had fought so hard to protect her from being taken is the very person she has to slay.

    But of course, she doesn't know that.

     

    --

    Or, The Thorn gets placed in a Slay the Princess role-reversal AU via a Shifting Mound mishap.

    Summary

    The Wild and the Apotheosis are two of the strongest vessels, they can break the construct. When the Shifting Mound is a bit late on retrieving her gift of a Tender Heart, the Nightmare grows to receive this strength, too.

    But all she knows is how to hurt…

    And so she does. She breaks the Long Quiet. Not mentally, or spiritually, or even just his will. She breaks him in a terrible, pragmatic way.

    Like the Sleeping Mound, they can hope to rebuild him from the Paranoid voice that survives. Together, the Paranoid and the Nightmare must bring Voices to the Long Quiet, and Vessels to the Shifting Mound.

    Hilarity ensues.

    Summary

    I think I know too much. I think… I think I’ve been here before. I think I remember being here before.

    “I’ll see you soon.”

    The words slip unbidden from your mouth, almost involuntarily. You open your eyes to see the princess nod and raise the knife.

    “Hey. I love you.”

    Then, all too clearly, you have a terrible realization. For this to work, you have to believe that she can make you forget. And you don’t, if your bleeding memory is any indication. You don’t believe anymore.

    But you don’t have time to contemplate the consequences of that realization. There’s an agonizingly familiar, piercing pain in your chest; then everything goes dark, and you die.

    Summary

    There it was, on the screen. A simple icon in black and white. A stylized heart, a dagger piercing it through without blood. It had not been there the day before.

    Or

    The Princesses find a certain game, and try to piece together what happened.

    Summary

    Pomni had been the top of her class for several years, but upon entering a university she couldn’t afford, she found herself surrounded by wealthy students with frivolous attitudes. When the university names her an honor student and sends her to live in a luxurious residence with other students, Pomni realizes that her plan to avoid everyone is impossible. There, she meets five people she will share the rest of the year with—and a rabbit who seems determined to organize her days.

    Includes illustrations made by me.
