Summary
Guill doesn’t want to pry when he doesn’t think he has any right to, anymore. But he knew Etoiles back when they were younger and likes to think he knows him now still; that he knows the ways in which he constantly pushes himself past the limits of his chronically ill body, shrugs off the consequences of his overworking right up until he cannot anymore. That he’s still familiar with how he keeps any growing hurt hidden behind easy smiles and laughter, any potential weakness kept out of sight beneath layers of clothing, even if they were worsening day after day, dragging him down into a darkness Guill wasn't sure he could ever recover from.
Maybe Etoiles was more like a comet than he’d initially thought; maybe he was already burning up on entry, body disintegrating and rock-dust spreading out into the cosmos. Maybe every time he stuck his neck out for someone, a little more of him burned away.
Or: Everyone is having a difficult time in Purgatory, but at least Guill gets to reunite with an old friend again.

Summary
The guard stared at him for a moment, blue eyes blown wide behind his mask.
It was then the Pythia looked down at the hand outstretched between them. The prosthetic was made of intricately carved metal, covered in vines and flowers twisting together with the shimmer of enchantments reflecting in the purple glow.
And although the guard’s sleeve was covering his wrist, he knew that in the place where metal met flesh, there was a pair of dark angel wings tattooed on his skin.
He was right. This wasn’t a real guard.
This was a Deathling.
or, Wilbur is an oracle known as the Pythia, chosen to receive dreams of the future from the goddess Clara. One day, he receives a dream warning him that during a ball Emperor Schlatt is hosting, the Deathlings—terrorists who worship the goddess of Death—will launch an attack. When his warning goes ignored, he knows there's going to be consequences.
He doesn't expect one of those consequences to include him getting kidnapped by a teenager.
aka, a cyberpunk fantasy fusion au with lots of religious trauma

Summary
Yes. Wilbur had to bite his tongue to keep the answer from spilling out of his mouth, because yes he wanted more. Of course he wanted more. He wanted to be more than the bastard prince. He wanted to be more than a mistake his mother made before she married Tommy’s father.
But that wasn’t the role he had been cast for in his life.
“It doesn’t matter,” Wilbur said instead. “When Tommy turns eighteen he’ll be crowned King, and I will be his advisor. He’ll be a good king, I’ll make sure of it.”
or, as the bastard prince of the planet of Eldingvegr, Wilbur has always known he was never meant for greatness. That was his younger brother's destiny. Wilbur's job was simply to try and make sure Tommy could fulfill that destiny.
That becomes decidedly more difficult when the brothers are betrayed, and are forced to flee their home planet. With the Essempi Empire being one of the largest imperial powers in the universe, the only place that can offer them refuge from Emperor Dream is Zephys IV—capital planet of the Antarctic Empire, ruled by the ruthless Emperor Philza.

Summary
"You've got some real fucking nerve, Soot. Showing your face back here," Quackity says. "I was just making plans to tear down that shitty van of yours, actually. Thought you'd finally fucked off somewhere and died."
"Your wish is my command," Wilbur hums, letting out a small noise of victory as his cigarette finally catches alight. He takes a drag and pushes himself to his feet. "How about we take this inside? I've got some things to say, then I'll be out of your hair."
"No." Quackity stalks forward, lips twisting into an ugly sneer. "No, Wilbur. Get out of my fucking city."
-
Wilbur apologises to Quackity. It goes about as well as one might expect.
