    Summary

    The man, sitting alone at a table for four, nervously waved at them, all standing by the hostess’ stand. Elliot watched—in real, horrific time—as his father’s stress melted away, easily falling back into a comfortable—comfortable!—smile. “Oh, there’s 7! Come see, you two.”

    Elliot had known that as soon as he’d seen the man’s stupid burger hat across the building.
    -
    Mr. Builder reveals to Elliot and Mia that he's recently started dating someone. Naturally, Elliot is ecstatic and overjoyed and all-curious when a family introduction dinner is planned. Until he finds out who the mystery man is. He's not so joyful after that.

    Summary

    When Ze breaks out of the padlock that thing put on his head, he's left alone in that bedrock hallway with nothing but the torches on the wall for company. He could easily walk out and go home. The door was right there.

    Paralyzed, he stands at the dark end of the hall, feeling the oppressive weight of what must be that horrible creature's million eyes on his back. It's laughing at him, surely. He stares down the hall and at nothing at all.

    He's not going through that fucking door.

    Summary

    (here. it rained here.)

    “Who the hell are you calling up? The mob? Are you in a gang?” She said half-jokingly, even as she felt a twinge of anxiety at his nervousness. Quietly, her chest still panged that he couldn’t pick her up himself in the first place.

    His end was silent for a moment. Then, “No, sheesh, just—Look for a black classy car with really tinted windows and fuzzy dice hanging on the rearview. I promise he’s nice. He’ll be there in twenty. Okay?”

    He was absolutely in a gang.

    -

    The weather's turned awful and nobody is there to give Mia a ride home from school. It's a good thing that Elliot has a secret boyfriend in the area he's not quite ready to reveal the existence of.

    Summary

    Mia gets woken up late at night and discovers Elliot missing from his bed.

    Fearing the worst—that once again he'd vanished without a trace into the shadows—she searches the house and finally finds him on the roof, forlornly watching the stars. They haven't talked much about where he'd been all those months, the topic rendered unapproachable by the distant look in his eyes and the way his hands trembled when he thought nobody was looking. Maybe, in the darkness beneath the horizon, he'd say something.

    He'd always been the strongest person Mia had ever known. She sits down beside him and turns her face to the sky.

    Summary

    Every loop, the killer wakes up fresh off a dose of amnesia and fury and bloodthirsty spite. They slaughter most (or all) of the survivors and then it all repeats. Almost every loop.

    Sometimes, the killer wakes up and they remember. c00lkidd finds his father and takes a nap. 1x1x1x1 butchers Shedletsky and then roams aimlessly until time ends. John Doe will sit in the grass, motionless, speechless, until the Specter gets bored and starts it all over.

    Mafioso has never remembered before, not until now. He decides he'd much rather take a break.

    Summary

    Squiddo's friends are dying, dead, or getting there. The end of the season is creeping ever closer, and if she wants to pitch in at all, maybe try to bring any of her friends back to the land of the living—or help protect those who are left—she's got to come up with something.

    She's not good at fighting. She's not a warrior. But if she, say, crafts an overpowered hack client to grant her artificial godhood and make her immortal, what could go wrong?

    It works. Maybe a little too well.

    Summary

    Boombox is not a very confrontational person. Vine Staff knows this, and loves him enough to know he won't open up about his recent odd and mildly concerning behavior until she almost kind of makes him. She also knows that he loves her enough to let her.

    Summary

    Slingshot hasn’t had any problems phighting Biografts before. Usually they’re a quick point for the team if they’re taken out fast enough—you just have to be able to outrun them. That’s the norm.

    Except this time, the shields aren’t working, and this particular Biograft seems to have anger issues.

    (Slingshot tries to beat up a robot. It doesn’t turn out so well.)

    Summary

    It wasn’t until they were halfway down the spiky failed elevator shaft leading to the basin that they stopped and thought things over. If it wasn’t the enemies that were setting them off, maybe it was the mysteries of the previously unexplored Ancient Basin. It didn’t feel right, though.

    They were a few jumps from the bottom of the shaft when it clicked. A phantom shiver prickled up their spine and ended in a full-body shudder, and they were suddenly very aware of how quiet and still the room was.

     

    Quirrel.

     

    -

    what if you were able to rescue quirrel from blue lake?
