    Summary

    “W-w-w-what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be…”

    “Dead?” Rick Prime filled in. Prime cracked a smile, “Seriously? You think I let some evil version of you and dead-wife guy kill me? Come on, use your head.”

    He flicked Morty's forehead, and the boy flinched, but surprisingly his skull was still intact. It didn’t even hurt that much. Rick Prime's grin widened.

    “Nah, I just let them think they killed me. Set up a whole dramatic death scene, and now I'm retired!” Prime spread his arms, clearly referencing the red and blue Hawaiian print shirt he was wearing.

    “R-retired?”

    Or, I really like the concept of Prime coming back and kidnapping his grandson to try and get in some family bonding, because Morty needs a good parental figure in his life. Is Morty happy about this development? That remains to be seen. So, here's a retelling of Season 9 Episode 8

    What if you took the mind of a sociopathic teenage genius from one HBO series and put it in the body of a psychopathic teenage idiot from another?

    Summary

    Bear Bailey's life changed completely the year he turned 25, on Halloween night.

    Some might describe it as death, or the type of change that meant he wasn't him anymore. But the truth was a little more complicated than that.

    If he really thought about it, he might describe it as... evolution.

    (or: Ian makes the wish instead of Bear, and it isn't for a billion dollars.)

    Summary

    "I wish…," Nikki hesitates, a small part of her screaming that this is a bad idea.

    She had read enough stories, watched enough horror movies about the problems that can come from hastily made wishes, however she pushes it away and finishes, "I wish Baron Bailey would be brave enough to show me how he really feels about me."

    A clench of her forearms, hands tightening around the branch before it snaps in half.

    --
    Starts at the car scene but goes off the rails pretty quickly, and in Nikki's pov no less!

    This is going to be quite different from the movie.

    In the movie, that OWW was originally meant for Nikki and Bear used it for himself in a moment of selfishness and despair.

    But what if...

    What if he did give the branch to her before she walked away, and she in turn made a wish of her own?

    How would things change? How would that stay the same?

    Influenced by my own insane thoughts, and the speech Bear did at the beginning of the movie to the waitress.

    Summary

    At some point, Alastor realized that the shaking in his chest was also laughter, and that he had fully tumbled onto the floor while cackling at his…

    Hm. At his Vox.

    There was no label that was appropriate for the two of them, no word that properly fit their dynamic. They were enemies, certainly, but surely to be such good enemies for such a long time entitled a person with the benefits of friendship on rare occasion, no? And surely enemies who were sometimes friendly and who didn’t really want the other gone weren’t proper enemies, but surely, too, friends did not often try to murder each other in the streets ? And then, Alastor was also quite sure that neither friends nor enemies sometimes snuck each other into their respective buildings in the dead of night.

    As such, Alastor determined, there was really no proper term for them!

    Maddeningly, Angel Dust had said this was called a “situationship.”

    OR

    Semi-established relationship Alastor and Vox get very high together. Shenanigans ensue.
