Summary
Sometime during their unstoppable descent into the realm of the damned, it became apparent to V1 that they are merely a chess piece, moving at the hands of an unseen player; one that is swiftly closing in on the other for a resounding checkmate. At the very end of Hell, Gabriel loses his final match with the machine that unwittingly broke the shackles he had noticed far too late.
Rather than putting an end to his existence, V1 instead takes the opportunity to shatter the board and stop the game.
In the aftermath, both machine and archangel are left standing in the settling dust of the collapsed echelons of creative order. But a scorched earth isn't always the end. Something will eventually grow from the ashes of utter destruction, if given the chance.

Bookmarker's Notes
(Reading progress: 12/12)
Gabriel is out before he can respond. He will awaken hours later to an empty bed and the sounds of V1 busying themselves with something at their workdesk. Morning has returned; a bright new day brimming with endless possibility.
He wants to get up, wants to hold them and remind them of how much he loves them, but his limbs refuse to cooperate. He wants to go outside and bask in the glow of the sun before showing V1 all the things he brought from the Primum Mobile, but he cannot find the will to stand. He wants to drag them from one of the libraries they found halfway across the world and bring back all the books they can possibly carry, but even that thought slips away from him as soon as it crosses his mind.
Instead, all he can think about are the corpses lying in the streets of Paradise, the survivors in the lower Spheres carrying on valiantly in the face of all they have lost. The sheer emptiness that threatens to engulf their Universe. Some part of him still wants to rage against himself for what he had triggered, but now, more than ever, does he understand that this would have been an inevitable outcome, whether he had triumphed against V1 that first fateful fight, or failed.
There’s only the time they can steal away for themselves before their eternal rest; to find meaning in their lives forged from what little they’ve been given.

Summary
Noelle Holiday has received an additional twenty-four helping hands that she probably doesn't need, but that's not really the point of all this, is it? Somewhere inbetween her poor mental health, extremely serious crushes, a mother that's not forthcoming, an old friend that's changed, a missing sister, and everything else that starts here - *that's* probably the point of all this. Right?
Noelle w/ Skills. Starts morning of Deltarune's Ch2; Aiming to finish all of Ch2 at least!!

Summary
Important/TL;DR: "Save The Game" is a "Baldi's game was supposed to be normal but something weird happened and now there's a big conspiracy" kind of AU.
An AU where it turns out that Baldi is a self-aware AI who's supposed to guide players through his game, not mercilessly chase them around for getting one (1) question incorrect. The twist? He's not aware of the latter. When exactly did everything go wrong?
In fact, the last thing the professor knew, it was his creator who was manning it all. But, even though he wasn't anymore, he was managing to leave behind a countermeasure - in the form of Filename2s.
Baldi, along with Player and Friend, embark on a long journey to repair his game. They find out various things, whether it's clues or total revelations. Throughout these adventures, more friends start popping up - with their own powers, l o r e, and more!
There's still so many questions - what is Basically, Games! planning, ultimately? Where're they keeping Baldi's duplicate? What's his creator up to these days? Perhaps someday, all will be answered.
OUT NOW is a rewrite of the original story that started it all, Save The Game! It's an all-new experience, with some familiar plot beats!
