08 Jan 2022
Tags
Summary
As part of the royal family, it was expected that Ghost could write. They couldn’t keep using the void, their custom sign and charades forever. So, the White Lady called them over to her desk and laid a pen and some paper in front of them.
“My dear, it is time you learnt to read and write” she announces cheerfully.
Basically, Ghost learns to write and has an adventure into PK’s psyche along with Hornet and Hollow!

Summary
“Ghost likes you, right?”
Quirrel blinks; he can already feel something lurking on the horizon. “Yes..? Why do you ask, Madame?”
She gives him her ‘impending doom’ look.
“The King asked me about the possibility of me teaching them, and I would, of course, be happy to, but then I thought about my dear son and how much they love you! So,” she chirps, “I have decided that you will be the perfect candidate for their tutor! What do you think?”
…oh fu-
It’s the beginning of Ghost’s journey into getting an education, and luckily for them, their favourite pill-bug is here to help them! How will Quirrel handle Ghost, the walking safety hazard?

Summary
The Pale King, God of mind and knowledge, King of Hallownest, was first and foremost a scientist and an engineer.
It would be foolish to just get one Vessel from the Abyss for his plan to seal the Radiance
What if the first one broke?
Maybe he'd just get one more from the Abyss, oh and there's another one, and another one, and another one...
Now has Mandarin Chinese translation by @templar-of-tyre here!

Summary
The Nailsmith packs a bag. He fills it with food and water and picks up a nail when he steps outside. When he stares at the nail, he considers, just for a moment, if it’d be worth it to end things with it. It wasn’t Pure but-
No. It loses all meaning if the nail isn’t the Pure Nail he crafted.
He’s going to find The Knight, he’s going to find his Pure Nail, and he is going to die.

Summary
The journey of a vessel who escapes the slaughter of their kin and makes it out into the wider world beyond Hallownest; the trauma of the events and a stubborn denial making them promptly forget their past and their siblings.
An unknown force calls them back to the kingdom of their creation, and they’re torn between investigating the strangely familiar visions and sights that plague them, and burying it deep in the recesses of their memory yet again; all the while meeting people on the way and trying to navigate the unsteady waves of friendship.

Summary
This wasn't how it was supposed to end. Everyone they have ever loved is dead, or dying, or wished they were dead. The kingdom is in ruins, the survivors barely holding on. If they could fix it, they would. If only they had more time.
And time was theirs to command.OR
Ghost ascends to godhood, decides to travel back in time and fix things, and saves those they couldn't before. They deserve a family, and nobody deserves to die (except soul master. fuck him.)

Summary
Hornet never thought she could call the days of the infection ‘simple’, but her siblings so loved to complicate things, didn’t they? Of course, she’d never have it any other way. Even if it did mean she was a child again.
(In a desperate attempt to escape defeat, the Radiance tries to flee through time itself. Ghost follows, taking Hornet along for the ride. But they can’t very well leave Hollow behind either now, can they?
In which Hollow causes an international incident, Hornet wants to throttle someone, and Ghost discovers that punching the Pale King is way better when he’s actually alive.)

Summary
What it says on the tin, basically! Oro adopts Lost Kin. Includes: fights to eat food, trying to sit still, writing lessons, nail lessons, bubbles, gambling (Oro literally teaches Lost Kin to gamble), honey, and lots of cuddles and hugs. This is a parent-raising-a-child story, and everything in this story is gen. It's about familial relationships and love, so all intimacy is familial and platonic in nature.
I PROMISE that, while there is sadness and tragedy, there WILL be a happy ending! I couldn't emotionally handle it myself, so while I love writing hurt, there will always be comfort and fluff to follow. :)
(I recommend obtaining the Dream No More ending before reading this in order to avoid any unwanted spoilers. Chapter one does have an on-screen suicide, but you can skip that by jumping to the end of the Hollow Knight poem.)
Misc Notes:
*Lost Kin is the main character, but they do not have a name for its majority. Most, if not all 'they/thems' refer to, well, them. :)
*The watchful one is Ghost/The Knight, who we play as in game
*The gentle one is the Greenpath VesselSeries
