Summary
Sightings mean nothing good. Why now though? Nergigante was the last hurdle. The Commission figured out why it intercepted their capture of Zorah Magdaros. They even figured out the reason for the great Elder Crossing -- and their biggest threat, the eater of elders, has been slain. What else could there be?
Why Marion?

Summary
Another brilliant flash of light startles him from his thoughts. Electricity rumbles in the depths of the water, a fight too chaotic to take any notes on, but realization soon crashes into him like a tidal wave. In the lagoon, the lagiacrus begins to circle a floating, unconscious figure.
“No, no, no! What happened?” Erik gasps.
Without missing a beat, the hunter's palico fires a blindingly white flare into the sky -- an SOS.

Summary
Metal clangs with each clash against their shield. Adrenaline hammers their heart like a bludgeon to their ribs. Three carts in a row and a second attempt initiated, there's no end to this quest in sight. Staggering on their feet, Marion wants to be anywhere but here. Some master-rank hunter they are.
The brachydios rears back, jaws clacking shut in a crude attempt of a grin, and black consumes their vision.

Summary
“I actually… came by to ask you something. Personally. It might be a strange question though."
Strange, huh? Marion can tell she wants something from them, but what, they can't figure out. There’s a world in which she doesn’t ask what they’re anticipating, and they would like to be on good terms with the hunting units here.
Alma worries the edges of her notebook before starting cautiously, “I… I sent a request to the commander, in the New World. I asked for the Sapphire Star. Was... Is that... you, Mars?"

Years after the events in the New World, Marion takes the chance to start anew. Their past isn't ready to die out just yet though.Series

Summary
They were unmistakable, even without their armor and weapon. Sat with their back to one of the walls surrounding the village, keeping it safe, the hunter looks up from their lap as Y’sai comes closer. He quickly finds the reason why they’re sitting -- a seikret chick is planted firmly in their lap and sound-asleep.
Y’sai fails to hide his smile at the sight. It wasn’t often the hunter came to visit, so seeing them stay put just for the chick is a very welcomed change.

Boo is staying in the mansion until somebody can revive him. No dealing with people, no dealing with emotions, just himself and the empty, frozen mansion, void of all life that could’ve been.

Summary
There’s an unnatural shape just in the horizon, massive in its size and the colors nearly blending into waving azure. It too reflects the sun and shimmers like a jewel in the distance. The terarium looks just as much as Eva would expect it to look, obviously, but seeing it so close still leaves him in awe. Only the uppermost section of the dome appears above the water, the rest surely being four times the diameter in its entirety. It’s incredible. There’s no other way to go about it.
It’s almost hard to ignore the fact that this was the second time the government tried building something like this here in Unova’s waters.

On his journey to his newest job opportunity, Eva can't help but be reminded of his past. As it turns out, he isn't the only one.Series

Summary
“This is what happens when mortals steal from gods, crow,” the King snides, narrowing his eyes as he clenches the fist tight. “Now, quiet down. I think it’s about time I’ve rested, now that you’re out of the picture.”
Somewhere in his monologue, the King doesn’t pick up footsteps somewhere behind them -- but Phil does. His ear feathers twitch.
A soft voice calls out, “Phil?”

Summary
Beside him, Bagi stares in wonder. “I’ve never seen Phil like this…”
There aren’t many differences when Phil’s like this, besides the muteness. He’s still snarky with his words and friendly to all of the residents, but… he’s oddly affectionate with the eggs. Protective, for sure, but Fit’s never seen him cooing over Ramón the way he is now. He has some guesses as to why.
It’s a Thursday morning, the sun is shining, the air is quiet, and Phil is dawning his beloved gas mask with fresh Cucurucho cookies in his hands and several eggs crowded around him.

Summary
The clicking footsteps he’s heard pause with another of Tallulah’s loud calls, and Etoiles squints, trying to see where she went--
Whack!
Ah. “Good left-click, Richas,” he jokes in lieu of a greeting. The egg punches him again, also in lieu of a greeting, before Etoiles’ hands are grabbed and carefully guided to the signs he’s placed.

Summary
The watcher glued his elytra shut for a reason. This motherfucker. His mind screams, but he can’t open his mouth. He can’t open his elytra. He can’t run. He can’t even move-- move toward it, even, because it’s--
It’s so… bright.

Summary
It's hard to see through the grainy overlay and the darkness, but Ranboo catches splashes of color amidst the flowers. There's somebody that seems to be the focus of the picture, with green accents that nearly blend into the dark grass below them. Behind this person is a dark shadow, darker than night, except it took the shape of feathers and wings. Wings made of the void.
Green and white accents. A scythe clutched in his hand. Golden hair hidden underneath a wide-brimmed hat.
Ranboo's eyes widen.
There's-- there's no way. There's no way.
"Phil?" they whisper.
--
Nether-hopping has its many uses, Ranboo's found out, years after The Incident. As many portals as he and Michael have been through, though, none have ever sent them to a place like this. -

Summary
Despite everything, his captain counters every disparaging word that leaves Etoiles’ mouth. Roier backs him up with sharper words and prodding insults meant to make Etoiles laugh, and it works a little. With Phil in his ears, reminding him that they found his body, he’ll be fine, they will all help, he reaches the portal Phil led him to--
“Fuck, wait, Bad is here--”
“HEY! What are you doing here? You need to leave now!”
[Etoiles was slain by BadBoyHalo.]
Etoiles stares into the darkness of the sky above him and waits for another meature to kill him.

Summary
“It was a shit fight,” Etoiles says eventually, repeats himself, tilts his head and lets his eyelids shut again. His daughter becomes a kaleidoscope of stars before his unseeing eyes. “The world wanted me dead, but I will not die, Pomme. Just like you, no?”
--
Months have passed since Etoiles saw his daughter. A lot has changed, but at least they're still the same.Series

Summary
It makes no sense. Etoiles remembers being guided out of the hole he trapped himself and Richarlyson in, the rush of the timer ticking down, the blinding taste of sweetness sour on his tongue, and, even though he’s safe thanks to Phil and Fit strong-arming him into the boat as the explosion sent crashing waves against his back, Etoiles remembers Richas.
He can’t sit still. The sea stretches in every direction around the ship, and nobody has any spare wood for him to make a boat to adventure on his own, and he has no energy left to do so. He can’t sleep. He can’t do anything.
So he does the next best thing and lets his legs carry him to the void.

Summary
It was unmistakable how different those two creatures were from his kids. Phil didn’t hesitate when the monster bearing Chayanne’s face charged at him. Red tinged his vision, anger and ferocity spurring his attacks in motion, determined to see that monster bleed with that red, red, red blood--
He didn’t realize it was his own until it was too late.

Summary
Her hands lift slowly, cautiously, until they cup his wrists. Despite her caution, Hunter still jerks, startling at the contact. Willow reflexively opens her hands, letting him pull away from her.
His eyes dart over her hands, then to her face. With a shaking breath, he lowers his hands back to hers.
“Was it… Belos?” she whispers. It’s so quiet Hunter almost doesn’t hear her.
Hunter’s throat closes up. “I learned how to braid because of him.”

"...was none other than an image of you."
Dream was put in prison. An era of peace was brought to the SMP. So why does Ranboo have this nagging feeling something will go wrong? The static in his head certainly doesn't help.
