The Things We Cannot Bury by FakerThanFaker
Fandoms: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Video Game)
11 Oct 2026
Tags
Summary
If a world born from sorrow can still bring joy, does it deserve to die with the one keeping it alive?
This story follows the uneasy aftermath of Renoir’s crusade against the Canvas. Renoir has relented, and the fate of the world he once sought to destroy now rests in Maelle’s hands. The fighting is over, but, as Clea might put it, the world does not stop simply because the family is mourning.
Caught in their orbit is someone who walks the fragile line between Writers and Painters. What begins as a temporary alliance with the Dessendre family slowly deepens into something far more intimate: an excavation of the grief buried beneath their name, a dying world where the family have quietly resigned itself to losing, and names no one dares to speak aloud.
But the longer he remains within Lumière, the harder it becomes to answer the question none of them can escape: if a false world can still give people something real, does its existence still count as a lie?
Alicia had a life to paint. But is a life to paint all she will ever be allowed to have?

Summary
"I want you to charm Verso Dessendre," Lune's mother said. "Flatter him. Become his confidant. Seduce him, if you must. The Painters are romantics; if you can make him think he's in love with you, so much the better."
In the real world, Verso is alive - a hostage in the Writers' story until he tells them what they want to hear. Lune, a Writer in exile, is called back to Paris for one reason: to earn Verso's trust by any means. But as Lune spends more time with the charming Verso, the more her loyalty - and her heart - begins to change.
The Writers and the Painters are sworn enemies in a conflict that has started anew. But what happens when Verso and his family discover the deception? And what of Lune, caught in between?

Jade Shadows AU: If only Stalker asked the Drifter for help by CardinalGoldenbrow
Fandoms: Warframe
07 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
Stalker, sitting sadly by Jade's bedside, knowing she needs help, and stewing in his hatred for the Tenno anyway. "No one can help me.”
Hunhow: "Have you considered that you know a guy with the same Void Powers as the Tenno who didn't help murder the Empire you're still misguidedly loyal to?”
Stalker: "...Huh.”
Chapters 1-18: the “If only Stalker asked Drifter for help, but Jade still died” story that mostly follows along the events of canon but explores additional character growth.
Chapters 1-9, 19-38: the “If only Stalker asked Drifter for help, and Jade lived” story that focuses more on developing Jade and Sorren’s relationship. Because, well, actions have consequences.

OG/Rebirth/ACC+DOC spoilers.
Zack takes it upon himself once he realised Aerith’s attempt to change things went badly. Too bad that he doesn’t exactly tell Cloud this. Or Tifa, and Denzel, who just happened to accidentally come along for the ride to Zack throwing Cloud back to when in time they could make a difference. They’ll be fine, he’s sure. Cloud, on the other hand, has words for his best friend. They rhyme with that could he, maybe not? (He doubts Zack is going to listen, either way).Series

Accomplishments of a Doomed Crown Prince by quags1re

Summary
spoilers for hsr 3.3
When it comes to predatory, soul-sucking gacha games, Cosmic Impact Rail Zero was probably the worst of the worst. Did it have incredible characters? Yes. An engaging storyline? Double yes. Did it make Mydei want to blow his entire paycheck on weapons and skins and more rolls? Of course it did.
But it also killed off basically every character in the game, including the crown prince that shared Mydei's name– Mydeimos the Undying, Son of Gorgo. How the hell was that even possible?! He literally had undying in his title!?
So when the developers ask for feedback, Mydei goes off on a heated tangent– and finds himself reincarnated as his namesake. You know– the doomed prince, destined for a life of hardship? Destined to die?
Not if Mydei has anything to say about it.

Summary
Cloud, age four (or twenty-eight, depending on how you count) kills his time-traveling tormentor way earlier that he should have been able to. For his troubles, he gets himself a few dozen babysitters, assorted older brothers, and maybe a dad (although that last one can't possibly be right, can it?)
Oh well. As long as he never has to eat a godsbedamned MRE again, he can put up with anything.

Summary
Everything is written. From births to deaths to wars to peace... nothing ever happens that was not recorded in Fate's book. No matter how much one tries to cast off its yoke, Fate will have its due. Yet there are those who believe anything can change, even fate's tyranny, and in their stubborn faith, create what can only be called miracles. And sometimes those miracles are born from a simple 'shepherd' reaching out a hand to those doomed by fate's shadow.
