    Summary

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that two people, who have only had a single meeting, must evidently be associated somehow. Of course, this universally acknowledged truth is founded on the public's audacious and insatiable curiosity to know everything, except what is worth knowing. But, this still is, in fact, a universally acknowledged truth.

    (Or: The climactic, synthesized-pop soundtrack of Marinette's Class Trip to Gotham City, America — complete with the communal and online reaction.)

    Summary

    Sasha fixed Tim and Martin with a glare that was deathly serious. “But why should that stop us? It is— or was, I suppose, given... everything— our literal job to investigate supernatural events. If the police won’t figure out what happened to the Institute, we’ll do it. Doesn’t everyone deserve that? Doesn’t Jon deserve that? ”

    In the face of an unyielding apocalypse, the being that was once Jonathan Sims has a final, desperate idea. The archival assistants pick up the pieces.

    Summary

    Despairing as yet another timeline goes horribly wrong, Homura wanders into Karakura. There she discovers that while the spiritually-aware people of Karakura were distracted by Ichigo Kurosaki and Xcution, Kyubey had managed to contract the Kurosaki sisters as magical girls. Drawing the attention of the shinigami could be just the advantage Homura needs.

    Summary

    “Oh, I know this one!” Olethra exclaims. She leans over to the storybook, tapping upon the inscription of the flaxen haired maiden and the Guardians bristle. She doesn’t even seem to notice. “The prince scales her tower and whisks her away from the evil witch.”

    Marya scoffs a little, her eyebrows raised in rare amusement. “Not in Scrapsylvania he doesn’t. He falls from the tower and is blinded, it’s only when they reunite and she weeps upon him that his sight is restored.”

    “True Love’s kiss heals ‘im in The Uplands.”

    “Isn’t that Sleeping Beauty?”

    “Nah. My aunt read it to me all the time as a young lass, was absolutely—“

    “It’s a load of nonsense either way,” Max interrupts, his tone harsher intended. He doesn’t know why this place has him so irked. “I mean, getting whisked away by a prince who just happened to stumble upon your tower? It’s unrealistic. And True Love’s kiss? They hardly know each other. And they don’t know each other in Sleeping Beauty.”

    or: The Wind Riders stumble upon a town in Zood dedicated to old Gathian fairytales. They don’t expect one of their own to start living in one.
