Summary
Luka is a star—adored, ethereal, and on the verge of collapse. The stage demands perfection, the fans want a show, and his rivals are watching his every move.
Flirting with Till keeps the crowd screaming. Ivan, cold and unreadable, watches every move.
In a world built on illusion, vulnerability could be the most dangerous performance of all.

Summary
Remember that funny bit at the end of episode 3? Where Caine and Zooble switched who was on the therapy couch? What if Caine went into a little more detail than just his thoughts on the wild west.
And by detail I mean Zooble gets answers and its- well, like pulling teeth.
Edit: No longer Zooble interrogating Caine, as I am writing more for this. Now everyone gets to interrogate him. Yay!
Includes: hardware facts! Software jokes! Inaccurate portrayal of AI! Everyone treating the circus like it’s real life while Caine is like HeHe HoHo, I’m a funny silly video game! Don’t worry about the darkness that grows within me, let me tell you about RAM.

Summary
"For what is a man, what has he got? - If not himself, then he has naught - To say the things he truly feels - And not the words of one who kneels - The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way"
Following the finale, the hotel and the Vees decide to forbid the now-free Alastor and the now-subdued Vox from seeing each other after the stunt they’ve pulled, afraid they’d cause more trouble for hell.
But obsessive hatred runs quite deep, and if the two can’t find a way to ruin each other’s lives in hell, they’d risk everything to find another way in another place.
Somewhere out there exists a universe in which Alastor and Vox are as close in every sense as possible. Geographically, temporally, emotionally. An alternative version of Al and Vincent on Earth in the modern times. One day, they begin to get spontaneously possessed by their demon counterparts, whose plan consists of tormenting each other in their bodies.
Their possessions won’t always be timely consistent, leading to a few teeny-tiny... mishaps.

Summary
Alastor did not sign up for romance. Unfortunately, the universe disagrees.
When the world around him begins to behave like a poorly scripted program —complete with glowing hearts, intrusive system messages, and mandatory “bonding events”—Alastor quickly realizes something is very wrong. Silenced, constrained, and pressured into connections he does not intend to make nor deepen, he finds himself trapped in a system where neutrality is mistaken for interest and refusal is not an option.
The more he resists, the more it forces his hand.
A darkly comedic descent into forced intimacy, mistaken intent, and the cost of 'falling in love'.
Every choice affects a heart—whether he wants it to or not.

Summary
New Orleans, 1933.
Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.- Language:

Summary
At the lowest Arthur has ever been, Kayne offers a deal: John will be freed from the King in Yellow, but he will kill someone that Arthur loves.
It's not a difficult choice at all.Both men are transported to a lighthouse near Innsmouth, Massachusetts. Bizarrely, they seem to have gotten something else out of the deal: John has a body, and learning to cope with his newfound corporeality is more of a challenge than he realized. They try to find some small comfort with one another, even as the shadows of Innsmouth grow around them - until an impossible face comes to town and shatters their illusions of safety.

The Little Dragon Dancer by LotusDuckies

Summary
“There’s an ape who lives near the east sea and calls himself the Monkey King, who they say fears neither tiger nor dragon. He’s something of a wild force, erasing his name from King Yama’s records and avoiding death. Then he was invited to visit heaven, where he ate of the peaches, wine, and Lao Zi’s elixir, further obtaining immortality. Many of the gods fear his power and are divided as to how to deal with him,” they explained.
One could say this was the catalyst for the metaphorical light bulb in his head.

Summary
“Well—” Martin starts suddenly, pulling him back from his rapidly spiraling mental state, “m-maybe it’s not...completely evil? Like, maybe it just— you know, wants something!”
Jon barks out a humorless laugh. “Yes, Martin, I believe we’ve established that what it wants is to kill me.”
“Besides that,” Martin argues, still fighting for a sliver of positivity in this developing plotline where Jonathan Sims turns up in a ditch in a week at the hands of some identity-stealing monster pretending to be him. “Like,” he continues, “m-maybe it just...wants a friend!”
Jon blinks, pointedly neutral-faced. “...A friend.”
“I mean, it did compliment my jumper.”The second worse type of holiday party is the kind where attendance is mandatory. The first, Jon is quickly learning, is the kind where attendance is mandatory, there's a monster running around with his face, and the only one who knows the truth is one Martin Blackwood.

And if someday, be it on our journey west or a thousand years down, I should come across a child, unsure and muddied and thinking itself broken, I could pull that child aside and say, "Do not cry. Have you any idea that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven was just like you?"
