Summary
Futaba closes the door again for some thinking time. That was Goro Akechi on her doorstep. Well, on Sojiro’s doorstep, but Sojiro’s not here. Only Futaba is here.
Open door. Peep round it. Akechi is a sort of heap on the step. Asleep? Or… possibly dead? Dead mom-killing ex-detective on Futaba’s doorstep? Didn’t he die four years ago? How is he here? Futaba hasn’t slept. Or eaten. She shouldn’t have to deal with this. What do you even do with a murder-detective possibly-corpse? She closes the door.
Okay, no, she can’t just ignore him and hope he goes away.
Well, she could though. It’s super super tempting.
No, come on. What would Ren do? What would Sojiro do?
What would Mom do?

hi i love this???? the way it was written is so concise but expressive at the same time... not a word was wasted, it's rare to find something this refined on ao3!
and THE CITATIONS TOOK ME OUT i am so in love with the idea of treating fanfic with the seriousness of a scientific paper -

Summary
For those who read chapter 15 of Alternate Universe and wished and wondered what would have happened if they hadn't been just that late to arrive. For those who did that in this author's discord, causing the monkey's paw to curl and grant this wish.
A side fic, of a different way this could have played out. Will *absolutely* spoil late game details in Alternate Universe. (Will be updated for as long as my brain goes with it)

Or: In which Karkat Vantas finally gets to leave his miserable life behind to attend the prestigious Salem University for magical studies. Finally he can make friends, learn things, hopefully work out just what species he is. And Karkat Vantas being who he is there might be a romance or two on the cards.
