In Which John Egbert is Allowed to Feel Rage for Once in his Life by bewarethepurpleone

Summary
John stared at the eyeless muse, waiting for her to crack a joke or at least a smile. Something to let the poor kid know that this wasn't what was actually waiting for him--for all of them--so close to the end of the game. No such solace came, and a dull memory began to flicker in the back of the teenager's head, one that burned hot for just a moment before fading quietly into a migraine waiting to happen. A memory of himself and his ectobiological sister. And a movie he hadn't realized was as AWFUL as it was.
"So, is being a shitty writer a requirement for cherubs, or is it a family trait?"
The Heir of Breath is recruited by Alternate Calliope to help ensure Homestuck^2 never happens. The clearest way to make it work is to force the game to run a patch before its completion, but it will require a lot of work on John's end, and the results are something no one but Alt Calliope and her increasingly fed up editor could have expected. John has never felt closer to the Makaras, and as time goes on, the feelings start to be reciprocated.

Summary
Your name is Sollux Captor, and you don't know why you agreed to this.
12th Perigee's Eve parties are stupid, and they're even stupider when they're three days long. Not like you'd ever been to one before, but there is no way they could have ever been anything other than stupid.
It doesn't help that you desperately miss your closest friend. When all of you one day just got dropped into this world that is neither Alternia nor Earth, because it's kind of both, with no apparent explanation and memories from other timelines you shouldn't be having, Aradia wasn't with you.
And it really doesn't help that the one person you least want to do so decides that now is a good time to bother you about things from the past you would rather forget.
Maybe this is it. Maybe this is when you and him finally do kill each other.
Or is it? A lot can happen over the course of three days...(Come to think of it, this has kind of a stupid title for a fic actually. Guess that sounded a lot better in my head? But it is what it is now lmao
And also, this fic is not actually very much about Christmas, if at all. It only happens to take place at a Christmas party.)

Summary
Time slams together in a tight compress and then releases. The Game drops you right back into your Houston apartment as though you had never been anywhere else, and you teeter precariously for the fraction of a second it takes for you to register your feet touching the ground before falling flat on your face.

Simultaneously, he just wants to take care of the kid he spent so long preparing for on Alpha Earth.
Dirk is internally torn to shreds in all the predictable ways, hating the man he was as Dave’s bro, and forced to see him every day because of their living situation. Aside from that, he can’t help but get the feeling something else is going on, as he keeps zoning out and losing time.
Around them, the rest of their friends also attempt to pick up their own pieces.

Summary
Rose is full of wishes: she wishes her sister Roxy didn’t have to work all day to make ends meet. She wishes her brother Dirk didn’t have to plunge into debt for his degree. She wishes her brother Hal had a body. She wishes her brother Dave---also known as the vigilante Jumpstart---didn’t have to risk his life on the street against the villains that the Prospitian Hero Tower never bothered to chase. A tower that would rather imprison him than help anyone.
And she wishes her powers were more useful than seeing a future she is powerless to prevent.
All she can do is take commissions, stay in school, and keep safe---until she sees a new threat and can’t let herself stay down any longer.
If Dave and Hal can do something, surely she can, too.Series

Summary
Rosalind was supposed to die. That was what was awaiting her at the end of the line, she spends her life rebelling against an impossible fate, and then, up at the crescendo, the climax of her own little chapter of history, she goes to fight the apotheosis of evil alongside her closest confidant...
And dies.
But.
In spite of living this life, walking these steps imparted to her by visions of some nebulous concept of 'the most fortunate path,' in spite of resigning herself to never stray from it for fear of what looms in the unknown... at the last step she changes her mind. In that last, pivotal fight, as fate itself reaches out with its crook to drag her off of the stage, clearing the way for the real main characters of the story...
She doesn't.
She fights tooth and nail, using her visions as a guidework to dodge attacks she knew were coming, to avoid the culling fork of the alien dictator and fight. Fight to the bitter end.
It doesn't change anything, not in that moment. She does not kill Her Imperious Condescension, but she makes her bleed.
Is that not enough for a life as storied as hers?
And yet, the butterfly still beats its wings...Series

Summary
David was going to die. That was what was waiting for him at the end of the line. He could feel it, the seconds ticking away to the moment his life would end. He goes to face his final battle with a smile and a laugh on his lips with his closest friend...
And dies.
But...
In spite of doing as directed, marching forward as was demanded by the ticking in his ears and the visions in his friend's eyes, resigning himself to the end she said would secure the victory for his son... reaching the end of his scene and falling into the void of nothing at the end, being unmade just as he always knew he would...
He doesn't.
He felt his death, the toll of an unseen clock ringing in his head, and feeling a hand reach for the key and winding it up again. The ticking is forced to continue, off-beat and fundamentally wrong in ways he couldn't imagine.
He doesn't know what happened. He wakes when he shouldn't.
Hasn't he given enough?
And yet, the butterfly still beats its wings...Series

Summary
This isn’t a shocking reveal to Dirk. If anything, he’s just confused why his brother wouldn’t tell him this in the first place. Dirk wonders how much Dave and Karkat have been hiding from him, if something so arbitrary as deciding to adopt a troll baby has to be a secret.
DIRK: Why were you hiding that from me...?
DAVE: because were only doing it if karkat recovers from his surgery
DAVE: ive always been kinda unsure about the whole grubby insect baby thing
DAVE: but its karkats dream yknow?
DAVE: to raise a wiggler of his own and provide a family to a baby troll
Karkat (29) and Dave (46) Vantas-Strider, now married, are finally ready to adopt a wiggler of their own.
But Dirk (18) hardly has time to bond with his alien nephews when the AI version of himself, Hal, is ruining his life.Dave ♥︎ Karkat

Summary
Three years ago, on John Egbert's birthday, the world ended. Three years ago, Jade Harley and Vriska Serket vanished alongside billions of others. Three years ago, the apocalypse arrived, transforming everything and revealing much that was hidden to those who remained.
Three years ago, the meteors (mostly!) missed Houston, and that's where John's headed today. In Houston, Rose Lalonde searches for washed-up traces of magic, warily overseen by Kanaya and her old friend Dave. In Texas, the newly dubbed "alternatives" maintain a newfound alliance with the humans they saved--and a wary truce with the Hunter forces that once kept all these creatures of fable and fairytale a secret from the world of man.
And here, in Houston, the world is about to change once again.
An urban fantasy monsterstuck AU featuring the beta kids, beta trolls, and their guardians.
An ongoing podfic.

Summary
(this is a rewrite of a fanfic i put on wattpad and quotev a while ago)
Karkat Vantas, a slightly vertically stunted troll who somehow ended up going to a school with humans. He has to navigate his way through his new life, learning that he doesn't need to hide from everyone anymore no matter what happens.
Dave Strider, a popular yet socially awkward human who doesn't want to be the center of attention anymore. His life has always been the same, and he has always thought that what he went through since he was as small as three years old was normal for a child to go through.
The only question left is if they will both make it out of High School without someone's brain, or the entire school, or even one of their lives, bursting into flames.

Summary
Dirk and Dave Strider had their lives uprooted suddenly when their little family unit with their older brother was targeted by the patriarch of the Harley demon hunters. Though both had hidden and run, they always felt that overlying shadow of the hunters tracking them down. It forced Dirk to take on the role of guardian to Dave, getting them a new home, putting Dave in a human like he wanted. And though they managed to carve out their own little life, Dirk can't feel safe while Harley senior is still alive, probably teaching his grandchildren and whoever else about the two demons they still needed to send to hell. That is, until Dirk meets a demon hunter reject of theirs that just might be his in.
