Summary
“He always felt like he was meant for something more. From when he was a boy, looking at Papa Nihil’s work, to being a Cardinal looking at his friends rise up to Papal glory, he always felt there was something more planned for him. When he became Papa Emeritus IV and donned his makeup and Papal robes, he expected that urge to be satisfied, what greater honour could he receive? He was Papa and front man of the Ghost project. But there was always something more.”
A one shot written around lots of my headcanons, I wrote it because I felt like it. First thing I’ve written in MONTHS and the first thing I’ve ever written about Ghost so feedback is greatly appreciated.
Follows Copia’s life in the Ministry up until his first Ritual as Papa, a lot focuses on Copia and Terzo’s relationship as I hc them to be very close friends. I include my own ideas for Primo, Secondo and Terzo’s names btw.

The Purple Haze - An Aether Ghoul One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
22 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
Aether is nearly 200 years old, and so he had spent a lot of time connecting with his Element, a lot of that time being spent in the dimension where Quintessence reigns supreme. As Aether goes about his life, his summoning, his relationship with his potent Element faces many trials and tribulations.
This is a spin off/anthology for my fic “Vengeance Is Her’s For As Long As She Stands By Him” but tbh only one or two sentences actually relate to the main story so you won’t be left too confused by anything. (But please go read the fic if you want some sweet sweet angst👀)

Summary
Ghouls, in their near-immortal lives, never stop growing. They’ll develop normally until they reach adulthood, then continue to grow very slowly for the rest of their lives, gaining a couple inches every decade or so. A Ghoul of Aether’s height would be in their early-to-mid 200’s, Aurora much younger at around 60, Mountain was the oldest at well over 500, probably nearer to 600 but he lost count long ago.
Ghoul’s always kept growing, unless you were a runt, that is.Or,
Dew is a runt but the pack don’t know that, and Swiss is a never misses an opportunity to make fun of the Fire Ghoul’s short stature.

If Home Is Where The Heart Is, Then Why Can’t I Feel Mine Beating? - An Ifrit Ghoul One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)

Summary
He felt a tug in his chest. No, not a tug. It was like a tear. Part of his soul felt as if it was being torn from his body and another piece felt as if it had been set ablaze.
He stumbled back to the Ghoul Den, hoping to find any of the pack there but was no one.
To say he was panicked, was an understatement. Especially when Papa’s office was vacant, as were the offices of his two brothers.
Or,
Ifrit’s pack goes missing, and he can only find Dew, but something is different about his Water Ghoul…Series

Everything was fine.
That’s what Copia told himself at least.Or,
I got way too excited about Copia canonically having dissociative issues and wrote this as a more detailed version of his perspective throughout RHRN.

I'm Still Your Favourite Regret, You're Still My Weapon Of Choosing - A Banana!Verse One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul for Banana Song (Kamalyn)
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
07 Sep 2024

Summary
It wasn’t too common for Alpha to stay in Dew’s room after their nights together. It only happened when they were both too worn out. No other reason, it wasn’t like either were particularly cuddly after their usual hate fucks. Yet last night wasn’t the usual hate fuck…”
Or,
Dew and Alpha make an impulsive and rather permanent decision. The morning after, with the sun shining down on what they did, makes the two react in a less-than-healthy way for their now-bound souls.Inspired by AnotherBananaSong's universe, but I’m like 99% sure you can still follow this story if you don’t know it.

Summary
"So Swiss, ever the caring partner, took Phantom’s plate of food and gently knocked on their door. No response came so Swiss tried the handle and found it unlocked. He had just intended on dropping the food by Phantom’s bedside for whenever they woke up but the sight of the little Bug broke Swiss’ heart.
They were curled up so small and hidden under many blankets with their back to the door. They had an extremely large plain black hoodie on that Swiss knew had been dubbed their ‘dysphoria hoodie’. Swiss walked around the nest and saw Phantom was awake, staring at nothing while tears rolled down their face."
Or,
Phantom is feeling dysphoric, and Swiss helps.Series

“What the fuck do you want?” The Multi replied, voice deep and sleep-groggy.
“Hi.” Rain said with a very adorable smile.
“Hi? You woke me up at,” Swiss batted for his phone, nearly blinding himself with the brightness, “9:30am just to say hi?”
“No. I woke you up because I want to go swimming.”

Summary
They tried to lean forwards for another kiss, sliding forward off the bed to straddle Dew.
“No, Phantom. I called red.” Dew said while wriggling out from under Phantom.
The hurt in Phantom’s eyes carved a hole in Dew’s chest.
“You’re always so good for me, my perfect girl.” He cupped their tear and snot striped face in his hands, “But I’m not comfortable doing anything right now. Not until you tell me what the problem is.”
“It’s not me who has a fucking problem!” Phantom blurted out, practically shouting it and they both froze. Phantom never raised their voice.
Or,
What Dew and Phantom thought was going to be their average hotel night whilst on tour, turns into a much needed conversation neither will soon forget.Series

Summary
“Oh, great. So, I have to leave you and your deteriorating body behind for months at a time, some new Quint cunt with me 24/7, and come back to find you dead in our nest?” Dew said.
“Dew, we can plan a date and time for it. We can plan every detail so it’s exactly how we want it.” Aether tried to assure.
“We? I don’t want this. I don’t want you to want this.” Dew nearly yelled, his eyes each a raging inferno.
“And I don’t want my vessel failing but, hey-ho, this is fucking life for us!” Aether couldn’t help his own volume raising now, “I want to die with dignity, on my own terms, with my pack, at the very least my mate at my side. Is that so much to ask for?!”
“The way you’re asking for it is!” Dew shouted.
Or,
Aether starts to notice certain things about his vessel and his time here on Earth. When he tries to discuss it and what he wants with his mate, it goes about as well as anyone would expect...Series

Summary
He was staring at his partial-element, when he heard the wind die down completely for a serene few moments where the noise of the gale was replaced by another, much higher pitched shriek.
Swiss was almost not sure he heard it. But he felt something. That cloud of anxiety had lifted for a halting moment when it happened. It was a call in so many different ways.
He got up and quickly yanked his sweatpants on before opening the door. It was still cold as fuck and the wind had picked right back up again. He stuck his head out and looked around, trying to see who or what may be nearby, calling for Mountain a few times too. But he saw nothing.
Swiss thought about that noise he heard though, and looked down instead.
Or,
After months of gradually debilitating anxiety that seemingly came out of no-where for no reason, Mountain takes Swiss away for a few days in their remote cabin. They had both hoped it might get Swiss out his own head for a bit, away from whatever what causing this, but Swiss never would have expected for it to follow him up there, and certainly hadn't expected this...Series

You Guide Me In To Safety And Silence - A DewTom by AshTheWaterGhoul
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
14 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
Runts weren’t exactly uncommon but Quintessence runts were a particular rarity. Quints were so strong that the idea of a pure Quint being a runt was damn near unthinkable. And Copia had just managed to pull one - who looked days away from the Beyond - from the depths of the pits.
No one quite knew how long it had been since this Quint had crossed over and the portal shut. But still, no one had even so much as hissed in a breath. That was until Dew snapped into gear,
“Fuck this shit.”
Or,
Dew helps Phantom after being summoned, and they find out they both share a less-than-desirable trait amongst Ghouls.Series

I Know For The Last Time You Will Not Be Mine So Give Me The Night - An Alternative Ending by AshTheWaterGhoul

Summary
At some point, Dew felt a faint light licking against his eyelids. Did he fall asleep? Was it morning already? Though curiously, he still felt the back of Phantom’s shoulders pressed against his face. He reluctantly cracked an eye open, and instantly regretted it.
The light was coming from Phantom’s horns. Their stars and galaxies giving a final burst of energy, one last ditch attempt at waking up. But they never would.
Or,
What would have been the ending to Ch22 of Even The Brightest Stars Burn Out if I decided to be mean. Pretty sure this could honestly be read without the context of the fic but notes have a tldr.Series

You Gave Me Nothing What So Ever But A Reason To Leave - A Dewdrop Ghoul One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
03 Nov 2024

Summary
“If you would let us, we would like to restore your birthright and name, son.” Torrent said.
He hadn’t called Dew his ‘son’ since months before his banishment.
“You would supersede Eyre upon your father’s death.” Marina added.
“I would follow you and your word, brother.” Eyre confirmed.
Dew’s head spun and he spoke before he thought, “Fuck no.”
The three gazes that had slowly been softening suddenly turned back to that familiar coldness again.
“You dare speak to us like that?” Torrent snarled.
Fuck it.
Or,
A really random one shot in which Dew goes back to Hell, and gets a lil catharsis while he's there.Series

Summary
He checked on Phantom often, also receiving updates from the rest of the pack and Copia could see through every façade the young Ghoul put up. Phantom was struggling with nightmares, struggling to adjust to life topside, and certainly the gawping from the Siblings and pressures from the Clergy weren’t helping matters. Copia could see the piccolo pipistrello falling apart piece-by-piece.
So, he paid them a visit one evening. And offered something Phantom was in sore need of, a hug.Or,
I posted this hc to my tumblr, got a load of asks on it, and wrote a full lore ramble on it :)

’Cause It Still Makes My Blood Run Cold To Remember What I Did Before - A Banana!Verse One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul for Banana Song (Kamalyn)
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
07 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
In the pits, Fire Ghouls were nothing if not warriors; their worth was found in defending and protecting what they held dear while fighting the threat head-on. The latter part may not be possible right now, but if Alpha could keep them all safe, shield them from the torment they’d all been subject to, he would take the looming darkness and become it. His flames were strong enough to stay burning in the dark fog he consumed, yet it just killed him a little more every time he did it. Taking him apart stitch-by-stitch and unravelling him from his very soul outwards. As time went on, he had to wonder when that last stitch would rip open, and he dread to think what the result would be.
Or,
Alpha has a lot of feelings after mating with Dew, and having to be oh-so-cruel to him to keep him safe from Sister's torment.Inspired by AnotherBananaSong's universe. I'm like 99% sure this can be read without having followed her blog, but it's amazing so go check it out!!

Summary
No one even questioned it anymore, and everyone quite easily recognised the two as father and child despite the species barrier. Even they didn’t really acknowledge it anymore. For all intents and purposes Phantom was Copia’s child, and Copia was Phantom’s father, their Papa. It didn’t matter that Copia was actually Frater and had been for some time now, Phantom only ever called him Papa. It was what they called Copia when they were first summoned and he held that title, and plenty of humans called their dads Papa so it just made sense to them.
But there was one thing that came with Copia being human that both of them never really acknowledged. And all things must end one day…

A Monster Made Human - A Copia One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul
Fandoms: Ghost (Sweden Band)
05 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
The Ghouls all semi-isolated themselves as they grieved, which was a custom that he expected as they were still grieving Sunshine too. He would go about his days, trying his best, then sobbed all his face paint off, feeling entirely unworthy of it.
He had failed to protect his flock, his Ghouls, his tesori. What good could he still do? He was advised to let the new Ghouls come to him, so he waited for Phantom and Aurora and neither ever came. The others didn’t come to him nearly as much anymore – and somewhere deep down he knew the truth behind it was because having to acclimate two new summons was a big effort – but he couldn’t help but wonder if they all saw him as the monster he saw in the mirror.
Or,
The best way to summon a new Ghoul is to use the blood of the old. And Copia has a lot of guilt when he must say goodbye to Aether and Sunshine...

Need Your Heat - A Phantom/Ifrit One Shot by AshTheWaterGhoul

Summary
It was probably only a matter of time before the inevitable happened, and Ifrit’s eyes snapped up to Phantom’s, before widening at the sight before him. He strutted over to Phantom with his usually confident swagger, a wild glint in his eyes and a wide smile on his mouth.
“Hey, Bug. Enjoy the show? I’m certainly enjoying this one.” He said, panting, his sweat-slicked chest reflecting the sun gorgeously as his eyes dragged all over Phantom’s hand and core.
Phantom nodded, “Uh-huh, so fucking hot… please, Frit. I- oh… I need you so bad.”Series
