    Summary

    After WW2, Warner tried his best to forget the war, forget him, and everything that happened there. But the past keeps bubbling up in unexpected ways, and Warner can’t run from him forever.
    OR
    Warner always wanted to go to Germany... but clearly Germany didn’t want him. If it did, then maybe World War II wouldn’t have started, or maybe he wouldn’t have caught those feelings. Anyway so now he’s married to the wrong person to try and forget everything else. Surely that works, right? RIGHT?!?!?!?!

    Summary

    Anakin Skywalker lives with her wife, Padmè, and an ailing Sheev Palpatine. Everyone else she ever loved is dead or gone. They're adverse to change in their dilapidated manor, but change soon comes knocking on the door in the surprising form of Obi-Wan.

    It's been 6 years since the Incident with The Council and some unfortunate truths are about to be uncovered.

    ---

    Think of it as a toxic gothic romance with a side of murder mystery (but only if you squint).

    Summary

    A sequel based on the short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. The village always held to tradition, but what could be the harm in updating things a little bit? Rated T because, well, it's based on the story. I don't own these characters, but I have grown corn before.

    Summary

    A cracked blend between the short stories, The Master's Castle, The Library of Babel and The Lottery.

    When a crazed stan keeps sending love notes to Slim he's had enough, little did he know this would end up with him saving the holy rap scripture in the previously fictional world from The Library of Babel.

    Basil, madly in love with his hero Eminem will do anything to get his attention, even break into his hero’s dressing room. But is Eminem really the person he loved or was there just Slim, an obsessed rapper who seemed to only talk in bad rhymes.

    Summary

    Today on fucked-up realizations about The Lottery...children are not immune from the lottery.

    That said I don't have a cold enough heart to kill a canon child so it's an unspecified/OC child of kinda generic age. Still sad though!

    Summary

    A lottery from Social Security weeds out the 'outcast/unwanted' from society, IE, the disabled. Two women, lovers, attempt to change that but just how powerful is a government that can force its will on its own people? Also, euthanasia is widely discussed as a legitimate response to this issue.

    Summary

    I was rereading a PDF of The Lottery (as you do) and I realized that Tessie was nearly late for the event. “Clean forgot what day it was” and all that.
    So I decided to write some canon divergence. Not for an assignment or anything, just for…fun?
    This is rated G but also has Implied/Referenced Character Death so like, reader discretion is advised.
