Summary
Mave and his sister live in a quiet jungle village where the young gelfling is learning to be a seer. But then a strange feeling comes over him and something falls from the sky. Could the mysterious fallen object be the cause of the elder's suddenly prophecy? What could this mean for Mave and his people?
My idea of where the Urskeks came from, and what the gelflings were like before all the killing went down. This is ONLY my imagination, and does not (intentionally) follow any canon that may exsist

Summary
This is a Pearl origin story in a way. It takes the fan theories (Pearls being a mass produced gem, Peridots replacing Pearls) and combines them into one story. I added some of my own theories (the idea that Pearls were categorized based on the type of Pearl they were). It starts WAY before the rebellion, and ends when Peridot arrived. It's short, and just briefly skims over certain parts, but I think I did it justice.

Summary
They've made a habit of this: the late night knock, the doorbell lean, the quickly picked lock. Turning up in one another's spaces unannounced, though not unwelcome. The promise of sanctuary has been there as long as they've known each other, which is longer than most people realize and much longer than they'll admit to.
In which Arthur and Eames have always relied on each other to keep one important secret.

That was absolutely beautiful. I really loved the idea of a distance shared dream. I love that Arthur & Eames' relationship was frought, but so powerful that Arthur hunted Eames down and Eames went a little crazy when they woke up.

This is an origin story of Joe and Nicky from their first encounter (first kill) to the events that brought them together and the events that led them to love.

Summary
When Nicolo was younger - much younger, or perhaps just less war-worn - he was often told he had a face of an angel. He wondered now, as he did many times before, if that trait was somehow instrumental to his destiny in priesthood, and thus to his becoming what he now was…
If he had a face of an angel, then the eyes across from him had to be the eyes of some vengeful god. It had to mean something… He dreamt of those eyes ever since he arrived into this strange, ruthless land - the holiest land. Those eyes must’ve been a premonition, or perhaps a catalyst in their own right…

And then the Batman showed up.
This complicated things.
