Summary
"As Sunny processed this information, and subsequently started to spiral, Omori saw fit to turn around and step on his foot. As Sunny cried in pain, although Omori wasn’t even really attempting to hurt him, seriously he really needed to work on his stamina, Omori oriented himself directly towards Sunny, clearly gearing up to provide some form of support, he had always known that he had liked Omori, maybe he had judged him too harshly before–
'Pull it together, I won’t hesitate to leave you behind if you don’t get yourself back in a traveling state,' he claimed, staring directly at Sunny’s eyes, tone as serious as it could be.
Nevermind, he wasn’t going to die alone out here, but he was going to die alone in whatever weird world they’d ended up in alongside a 12 year old that clearly had some attitude problems."
In a world where people live on giant titans swimming in a sea of clouds, Sunny's feeling more than a little bit lost. But hey, at least Omori's here while he figures out a way forward. He could go without being constantly messed with, though. But that's gotta be better than almost killing each other, right?
Right?

Summary
Aionios is gone and Origin restored, but life does not settle into any sort of "normal" for the newly intersected Bionis and Alrest in the days, weeks, and four years to follow. In fact, no one even remembers that thousand-year war lost to a second’s breadth.
No one except Noah, whose past life keeps cycling around to haunt him and his decisions. Torn between what should be a sense of currency and truth and his heart continually yearning for that special girl he sees in silhouettes, shadows, and mirrors of Gran Dell, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery as perhaps the only person who can connect the discontinuous lines that blur his dreams and everyone's reality.

Summary
After the New Squidbeak Splatoon's Attack on Octo Valley and played that treacherous song- the Squad had been one commander short, as did many other squads in the Octarian Military and after the king's return, Ingrid hoped that meant she'd be promoted as a new elite commander. Wrong. Her squad had been set to be some inkling girl's back up dancer crew.
At first it was humiliating. But- they'd all grown so attached- and when she'd been taken away from them- away to.. the surface. They followed suit soon after. Wondering, hoping, reaching for the sky of constellations their shooting star fell from.
Now, living on the surface, they must adapt to their new surroundings. One step at a time.
