    Summary

    Horror stories had fascinated Mirabelle for as long as she could remember. The catharsis, the thrills, the relief, she loved all of it! And perhaps, sometimes, privately, she imagined what it would be like to be one of the characters in them.

    And not always the victim.

    Sometimes, she imagined stalking through dark forests and haunted castles, her long claws scratching the ground with every step.

    After the King’s defeat this old interest intersects with her new studies into body craft, and things swiftly get out of hand.

    Summary

    Isabeau once joked that if he ever needed to get away with murder, he would make sure to ask Odile for help.

    She didn’t mind the joke, in fact she tried to play into it. She was more ruthless than the others, scarier, and it was for the best to keep that comparison humorous. To limit her terrifying side to chilly glares and threats of spicy food. It stopped the others from dwelling on it long enough to ask questions, which in turn helped her keep certain things buried in the past.

    Then Siffrin knocked on her door in the middle of the night and asked her for just such assistance. Suddenly it wasn’t a joke anymore.

    Summary

    "Why do you look at me like that?" Siffrin asks.

    I've seen you die, Mirabelle thinks. I've seen you carve lines through your neck, I've seen you choke on air, I've seen you been crushed by a rock, I've seen you smile at me like it's the last thing you'll ever do.

    And, damningly, I could never have imagined you with two eyes.

    Mirabelle looks away, feeling her face flush. "No reason!!!"

    -

    Looping in time leaves imprints on the time-space continuum, repetitive steps woven into the very fabric of reality. Ghosts of loops haunt the prison that once was, or… the prison that will be.

    (aka, years before the world freezes, mirabelle is haunted by the ghost of a friend she's yet to make. how can she possibly save someone she already knows is doomed?)

    Summary

    the child you've found grows more comfortable in your little group day by day.

    They still play with sticks and leaves, though.

    You don’t know why it bothers you. You played with what you could find on the forest floor when you were a kid, and you turned out fine! It’s just…

    It just feels wrong. Why should they settle for sticks and rocks when you’re right here, capable of carving all the wooden toys they would ever want?

    or

    an exploration of Bonnie and Siffrin's relationship, through the toys he carves them.
