borrower au because I dunno how to act. if I get feedback or if my brain lets me I’ll continue it 👍
edit: heya hyperfixation went away. finishing this eventually but No definite dates. I have an outline just no motivation sorry bout that. comments n kudos feed me
edit 2: 2026- obviously this is on indefinite hiatus. I might rewrite it at some point and I’ll definitely finish it someday but the person that started it is different than the person I am now. I graduated and all it was really hard. but yeah thank you for reading! definitely coming back to this someday but I assume it will be a good long while.

Summary
After the events at the church, Kris's compulsions are worse than ever. They can't seem to get the timing right, the motions right... anything right, really. Every thought about Susie refuses to fit in the neat categories they made for themself. If they can't keep even their own thoughts balanced, how are they supposed to handle all their allegiences when it truly matters?
Frustrated and delirious with exhaustion, Kris isn't too surprised when they start to imagine the soul talking to them.
They weren't expecting their own pretend mentor figure to sound like a janitor, though.

Summary
A distinct pop rings behind him. “What’s taking you so— oh my! What happened to the lights? I know I put some in here!”
Kinger turns just in time to see Caine’s eyes frantically searching to confirm his own competence, that he really didn’t just forget something so important as being able to see in the tent. A diligent AI, as always. Not perfect, but god knows Kinger isn’t either, so why would he expect that from his creation?
Well, not just his— they had a whole team, after all, and Queenie would not take kindly to not getting credit for her wonderful additions.
Their creation. All of their life’s work.
Kinger’s eyes crinkle fondly, no mouth to betray how he is smiling on the inside. “Hello, Caine.” He says. “I think this is some of your best work yet.”
(Or as the rest of the gang engages in a fast food masquerade, Kinger finds just enough sanity to talk to Caine properly. If only everything he said didn’t terrify Caine, or this might’ve all gone differently.)

Wasting Away Again in the Goldilocks Zone by ckret2

Summary
Bill jailbreaks the afterlife via reincarnation. With half his powers missing. And is immediately captured.
But neither side knows whether killing his new body will unleash a feeble human ghost or a powerful energy being and no one's risking it. No prob! Bill's sure he can befriend or escape his captors before they find a god-killing weapon; but THEY'LL never befriend HIM—
—enter Mabel Pines.
Listen, y'all know what to expect from a human Bill redemption fic. But this is the only one that's about: the dysphoria of being a triangle in an alien body; gifted kid burnout; befriending the ENTIRE town (we're talking Robbie, Mrs. Gleeful, Tyler, EVERYONE); and... Bill getting cursed to forget how doorknobs work. (Plus illustrations!!)
