Summary
“You misunderstand me,” says Dream, setting his clipboard deliberately aside. “What I meant is, I'm the next test subject. Why rely on secondary sources of information when you can have a primary source, right?”
The eyeholes in the mask are just wide enough for Punz to tell he’s being watched carefully.
“You’re going to kill me,” Dream says with a kind of absolute confidence that would have frightened a lesser man, “and then you’re going to bring me back.”
___________________
Punz and Dream traumatize each other, perfect their grilled cheese recipe, and co-navigate the inherent eroticism of killing and resurrecting each other repeatedly for reasons of scientific inquiry.Series

Summary
When Dream slays a dragon, it's nothing personal. He's just trying to provide for his adventuring party: get enough food to last through the winter and neutralize a hostile enemy in the process. It should be simple, right? He certainly doesn't expect the dragon to use its dying breath to curse him. Now he's a dragon too, thanks to eating cursed dragon flesh - and the only way to reverse the spell is to do a favor for the Ender Dragon, a mythical beast who rules a dimension beyond the bounds of reality. The journey to the End is long and arduous, but Dream has no choice. Along the way, he meets a warrior, a crow, a jailer, a ghost, and a prince.

Summary
Quackity smiles mirthfully, shrugging off his jacket. “Yeah, yeah, I know. Gentlemen prefer blondes, right?”
Sam pauses. “I don't— What do you mean? I’ve never dated a blonde.”
“No need to get all tense, man.” Quackity eyes him with carefully-crafted disinterest. “It’s just a turn of phrase.”

Summary
Curse him. Curse his name and this supposed gift he’d given of life. Even Javert’s final thought, submerged willfully in the cold waters of the Seine, was littered with the remnants of Jean Valjean. Let him be free. Let the water wash away the curse inflicted on his soul. Let him die now, too tormented to wait in agony for a natural death, even if it meant the remainder of his soul would go to Lucifer’s domain. Let his eternal life be one of misery, as he deserved. Perhaps Valjean would meet him there, but Javert did not think it so.
Rescued from the Seine by a determinably anonymous benefactor, Inspector Javert struggles to cope with the consequences of being left alive.
