Summary
The fact that she was actually gonna make it to school made Helga feel like she'd beaten the world. It was a small victory, sure, but she'd felt like the universe was trying to prevent her from walking through those big, obnoxious blue doors, and now she was going to do it.
"Take that universe!" She'd triumphantly shouted at no one in particular.
…
You know what they say about speaking too soon?

Summary
An Arnold x Helga one-shot through the eyes of their fathers. Over a series of time jumps. It’s complicated…
Helga was born in March and Arnold was in October, so Arnold is older than Helga. If Helga is, in fact, younger than Arnold, could Arnold hear baby Helga’s cries from San Lorenzo?

Summary
The heart was a precarious thing. It could cause Helga to double over in laughter, sob at a stupidly sappy movie, or even swing a broken beer bottle at her creepy tinder date last month. But at this moment, all she could do was stand there like an idiot, her breath catching at the sight of a familiar figure pushing open the door.

Summary
"After finding his parents in San Lorenzo, 6th grade passes and Arnold moves back to the country with his parents for 2 years to help with the Helpers for Humanity, until he comes back to Hillwood for high school. But what changed in those 2 years he was gone?"
My "what if" idea on what a season 6 could entail if it were to be set in a high school setting.
This story is meant to keep characters as "in character" as possible, while not being afraid to develop them further than they were in the show. This is not a fluff fic. It's meant to just be good general story telling with a cohesive and meaningful plot that all ties together. I try not to insert anything that won't ever go anywhere. My stories are all roughed out ahead of time and all have endings.
This fanfic is also littered with drawings and doodles because I'm more of a visual story-teller! Picture book time yay!Series

Summary
So... Arnold had cheated on his girlfriend. My man Arnold. Cheated. On his girlfriend. But it was the way that he said it that really interested me: he just said it. It was a statement to him, not a confession, or a heart-wrenching admission of guilt. He said it the same way he'd tell me he was out of sugar.
