Summary
The Aurora was getting old. Tired.
So was he, Jonny knew. His heart had been on the fritz for a while now. Healing some injuries perfectly, and leaving others to time. Prioritising the life-threatening ones, The Aurora liked to point out.
But even that was slowing down, these days.So when Jonny landed on the dustball of a planet, he thought nothing of it.
There was a Role to be filled here, but there was always a Role to be filled.
He wouldn't even realise he'd stepped into it until so many decades later. -

And so it came to pass in the reign of Kaiser Luna the First of Panem, the 42nd Annual Hunger Games dawned upon every man, woman, and child. An unlikely alliance that sings the brutal hymn of gunpowder forms in the arena and they’re not going down quietly.
Jonny, Tim, and Bertie are reaped for the Hunger Games, but there can only be one victor. Too bad Jonny and Tim had to fall in love over it.

Summary
He stares incredulously at Jack.
The audacity. The idiocy. The sheer inability to read a room.
Jack is human, evidenced by the way he clearly takes the outraged flicking of his tail to mean 'indecisive', probably due to supposed 'morals' or something. Humans are so absurd sometimes.

This takes place post DTTM where it turns out those deaths didn't turn out and now their in the past. Jonny is acting weird and its very clear he recognized the area their in and who will be nearby.
I'm writing this as an rxscuse to have vangilis and Dville interact because I think it'll be fun

Summary
There was a melody in the air, a song that sung violence throughtout The City. It was fun. It was awful. It was gore on blood on viscera, and all one could wish for was to get out.
There's many interpretations on what exactly that means, but Hades knows everyone will be agreeing with their squashing of the violence that plagues their city in no time. No time at all.
or; i may have taken the cerberus!jonny hc a little too seriously... and i may have given ashes a bunch of character development in the wrong direction.
(or; the main udad mechs fic is here! i think the mechs were absolutely fucking shit up during udad, and i wanted to write about it. this leans heavily into what the fuck was happening with jonny and ashes (nothing good), but other mechs will make their appearances in due time.)

Summary
Time is weird when you're an immortal space pirate, especially when you refuse to follow a linear timeline, jumping back and forth across millennia.
But usually it doesn't turn against you in such drastic ways as it did for Jonny d'Ville, now trapped on his homeplanet with no way off, or for Jonny Vangelis, now traveling on a spaceship with a crew who somehow knew him.
