  1. Summary

    These stories were written as part of the telephone writing game on the Chasing Stardust server. Essentially, playing a game of telephone, but with writing prompts! Each person came up with a prompt and it got passed on down the line, with everyone only being able to see the section of story directly before theirs. The result is a series of stories with continuity breaks and surrealist / absurdist elements.

    Coauthors on works are the prompt writers for the fic. They may or may not have contributed to the work itself (some prompt writers may choose to write wrap-up snippets), but are listed as the only coauthor so that we don't need all of the participants as coauthors.

    Event participants:
    Fal (Falstarin), Took (foolofatook001), Leo (GracefulLeopard), Stickers, Errol (HorribleTimes_MiserablePleasures), Whoop, Moon (Moonscar), Vee (pointvee), Hawk (Feliadox), Kakti (FlowerFox), Syares (syares), Ozzie (octopus_defence), Ketty (PolynomialPandemic), Cat (HappyCatTail), Exe (Xeamon_exe), Lumi (Liminalumi), Cookies (free_cookiesx), Crow (Alecellent), Bee (AHumbleBumbleBitch), Kat (RandomeProjectedKat), Bread (Blanksandwich), Space (Koolady), Gal (Gal_Writes_shit), Grim (grimfey), Ties (MinMinh), Fenn, and Tet

    Summary

    When two souls don't see a way forward, they spiral toward oblivion together. What happens when these souls realize they've found each other when it's far too late to prevent their demise?

    ----

    In which Malos sends a coalescence of his and Jin's will out into the world as he's dying in the old Alrest. The Architect, seeing his Son send this little bundle of will out into a dying world, does anything he can to send both Malos and Jin after the light, and into the other world. It's a miracle, only made possible by the simultaneous births of new worlds that still echoed one another, and one of two miracles he performs in his last moments.

    Jin wakes up alone, wondering why he hasn't died.

    Summary

    I FORGOT A SUMMARY AHHHHH

    Someone targeting the Commission isn’t anything new, with them being such a large pillar in society that promotes Heroes; occasionally, they have to replace the windows or lawn if an attack is bad enough. Maybe hire a few staff members to replace lower-ranking employees who did nothing but show up to work that day. A building can be rebuilt, new people hired, and money had never been an issue to the HPSC with all of the public support it gets. But this isn’t that, it isn’t just a matter of replacing some glass or buying new trees- the Commission is currently more like an active demolition zone than a proud government building.

     

    This isn’t just a targeted attack, it's angry- furious even, a wrath proven right and twice as deadly for it. This attack is a message.

     

    (or: eyooo, back on my bs and leading the hurt-hawks train!)

    Summary

    "Rook," he breathed out, barely concealing his surprise. "I—"

    "Don't pull that shit on me," he snapped, and Solas was barely able to keep the amusement off his face. Had Rook been older, the ferocity of his words could have silenced a lesser man; but as he was, barely reaching Solas' chest, his bite lacked any teeth. He was a pup just learning to growl, and still had yet to learn his prey from his predators. "I'm going to kill you. I should have killed you when I had the chance."

    "Not for a lack of tenacity," Solas began, unperturbed, "but I doubt the effectiveness of a butter knife in an assassination attempt, particularly when its wielder can barely reach my throat."

    or: rook and solas time travel to the inquisition-era. everyone wants to know why solas has beef with a 12 year old.

    Summary

    Spoilers up to chapter 1186!!

     

    Time passed, yet the fog didn’t seem to.

    Wherever he went, it followed, seeping into the cracks in his mind like a poison; rotting his sanity from the inside out. Every time he left, it just found him again.

    Would he ever make it out? Or would it just take everything from him, again and again…
     

    Or: Brook’s experience with fog over the years; from Esperia to Wano.
