    Summary

    Henry hadn’t known how to read for most of his life, and now he did. More or less. Which didn’t mean that he always had the words to decipher a conversation, a relationship, the sort of encounter that Hans had initiated, and what was to follow.

    Henry shrugged his shoulder at the book, and said, “I was just thinking… maybe before, I would have looked at a book and seen nothing but a jumble of letters. Is that how the inside of an unschooled person’s head, like myself, looks like sometimes? Nothing but digging around in the dirt for radishes, all ashy from working at the forge.”

    Note: I should disclaim as usual that I haven’t played the game, but have enjoyed myself watching video of parts of gameplay and the main narrative, so I hope that nothing herein is directly contradicted within the game, or in a way that’s bothersome.

    Summary

    If Riku had been another person, he might have liked Kairi in that way. As it were, Kairi could have been a princess with a heart of such purity it unlocked doors into other worlds, which she was, and she still wouldn’t have been Sora. Which was in itself another problem for Riku.

    KH1-centric. Riku deals with growing up, jealousy, and hurting his most precious person. Mickey Mouse tries to comfort an angst-ridden teenager with campfire marshmallows.

    Summary

    Riku and Sora have a fairy tale romance in less than 14 seconds of rough animation. Which doesn’t sound like much, but there’s a reason it used to be years between feature-length hand-drawn Disney film releases.

    Summary

    James Buchanan Barnes is waiting for a train in the countryside of Germany. The train is late.
    The week before, Bucky Barnes had been driving on the coastlines of Normandy.

    Atmospheric European road trip vignette, set kind of after Bucky has been healed up in Wakanda, but ignores every film after that point.

    Summary

    This is a story that breaks the fourth wall.
    …Dear reader, you ask, what is a fourth wall?
    Don’t worry about it.

    An original take on the cancelled Coyote Vs. Acme film, drawing loosely from the leaked synopsis, and heavily from the golden age cartoons, including the Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog cartoons, and also Chuck Jone’s literary inspiration of Mark Twain.

    Update: Now with a rough animatic of the intro, drawn by yours truly.

    Summary

    Feliciano and Ludwig post comedic videos online about being a stereotypical Italian and a stereotypical German in a relationship. Ludwig takes a spaghetti prank too far.

    Inspired by such kinds of videos found on YouTube and TikTok, and also this prank video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VJIpVl_6dpY

    This is more a reimagining of Hetalia characters in a modernized context, so liberties have been taken with characterization.

    Summary

    Queen Amaya knows all about who her husband is behind the benevolent facade: a selfish, arrogant person who always has to make everything about himself. And yet, he is still successful ruler of the kingdom. And yet, she still loves him.

    Disclaimer: I haven’t seen Wish in full. Only the clips online. This fic was inspired by the snippets, a little of the concept art (ex. Star as a shapeshifter that takes human form), and original thoughts on where I’d personally take this kind of story if I were in charge of it.

    Summary

    Benoit Blanc and Philip meet over the Christmas holidays, and Philip’s ballet dancer aunt tries to set them up, holiday romcom style.

    She was a former principal of the American Ballet Theatre, in the glamour days of ballet when the likes of Nureyev and Fonteyn ruled the ballet world, and of course at some point during her career she had become mixed up in a veritable murder mystery.

    “It was like finding yourself in the midst of a film drama. Very exciting!” Aunt Rosemarie had recounted on more than one occasion.

    Summary

    This is a story about clones and about Cody.
    When they were given armor, and the Jedi allowed them to paint it—Cody had looked at the array of colors, more colors than he had ever seen produced in paint, and then taken the yellow paint without hesitation. He loved the sun, and he wanted it on his armor.

    Also: okay, so this is not exactly canon compliant in the details. It’s more like clone canon fusion with Māori culture, so don’t come in here expecting things one way or another because you’re probably going to be disappointed in that case.

    Summary

    A fan song for an imagined climatic scene where the Mandalorian diaspora unites under the leadership of the Mand'alor Din Djarin. (Piano and vocals concept demo).
    This is the way, he'll say; / All clans and creeds uniting. / This is the way, he'll say; / So turn your ships towards home.

    Update: a revised and expanded version with te reo Māori/Māori language lyrics has been uploaded. Thank you Temuera Morrison and Daniel Logan for looking white film directors in the eye and going: I'm going to draw from my Māori cultural background when I play out this scenario; who's going to stop me.

    Summary

    Luke watched the Mandalorian say his farewells to the child, promising that they would see each other again. Luke watched as the child clung to the Mandalorian’s leg.
    He watched this and then asked, “…Are you the child’s father?”

    -

    This started out as a fix-it fic to give Luke some actual emotional intelligence regarding taking Grogu as his student, and turned into yet another one of my stories about love, meditation, and trauma recovery. Also, I've only watched bits and pieces of The Mandalorian. Discrepencies to canon may appear in this fic, even beyond the general creative liberties of writing this.

    Summary

    Widow Alma said that anyone who wanted to leave could leave. And it was true! Anyone who wanted to leave was led down a path by the lights of the Encanto, and then up the mountains, and then they were gone, never to return.

    Or, two years after the events of Encanto, Mirabel, Abuela, and Luisa take a trip outside of the Encanto down to the city at the foot the mountains. Inspired by the deleted scene Back to the Mural.

    Summary

    From a hypothetical Lore Olympus musical: Hades is falling in love with Persephone and sings about it.
    Stylistically inspired by Panic! At the Disco's "Death of a Bachelor," if Death of a Bachelor was Hades' early chapters theme, and Seems Like I'm Losing My Mind is the slower follow-up.

    Posted 3 years ago in November of 2018 to YouTube! But I never cross-posted to AO3; I think I was nervous it wouldn't fit the characterization of the comic as time progressed; but it's been 3 years and I still like this song C: and think it fits the emotional trajectory of Hades in the latest chapters perfectly >:3c
