Summary
Joker wouldn’t be thinking about Akechi at all. Akira can’t seem to stop, despite the fact that Akechi has betrayed him so fundamentally that thinking about it for too long is enough to give him a panic attack. One way or another, Metaverse or no, Akechi’s going to shoot him in the head, for fuck’s sake. Akira should be furious. Akira should be terrified.
Akira is just desperately sad.
Akira and Akechi, 24 hours before and after the events of 11/19.

Summary
He’s always believed he knew what he was capable of, but it had only been in terms of the chaos he could incite and the pain he could inflict. He had molded himself to that belief. A dog to be kept on a leash, a monster to be chained, an aberration to be studied. He’d never considered that he was capable of anything else, because he was already capable of far too much.
Sephiroth, with one more chance at life, settles into life as a farmer. Then, Cloud shows up.
Do not need any prior knowledge of Stardew Valley to read.

Summary
“Look, Lan Zhan told me, and I paraphrase, ‘to have fun with it’.”
“Uh-huh,” Nie Huaisang says with perfect skepticism, befitting someone who had been friends with Wei Ying for the last ten-odd years. “What did he actually say?”
“‘I trust your judgment,’” Wei Ying says.
“Tragic,” Nie Huaisang says, shaking his head.
Lan Zhan hires Wei Ying to build a website, but fails to email Wei Ying any designs. Wei Ying decides to have a little fun with it and gets in over his head.

Summary
“Wake up,” he says to his body, alarm making him itch. There’s no response. He says it louder, and then yells it, trying to drift forward. He can’t move. He’s curled over his own body, staring down at it, without being able to do anything.
From inside Burial Mounds, Wei Ying’s mind reaches out to those he’s left behind.

Summary
It is a mild night in Nicodranas, and Veth is considering slamming the door in Essek’s face.
He’s wearing a Disguise that she hasn’t seen before and an expression that warns of future vomit. He says, shivering, “Um. Hello. Please help me?”
Veth, who is beginning to wish that she hadn’t answered the door in her skimpiest robe, attempts to surreptitiously cross her arms over her cleavage. She says, remarkably pleasantly, “Are you fucking insane?”

Summary
Ren has never been so relieved to see a disgruntled expression in his life. His features are all the same as Ren remembers, nothing monstrous or out of place, just pure Akechi Goro—part annoyed and part irate.
Akechi’s eyes widen. They glow almost red in the sunlight. For a second, he looks genuinely, unobstructedly surprised.
“Amamiya,” Akechi says, and his voice is the best thing Ren has heard in months. “What are you doing here?”
*
One year after the collapse of Maruki’s reality, Ren starts meeting a dead boy in his dreams.

Summary
Essek draws out the spool of platinum cord from his component pouch. He loops it around his own wrist before catching Caleb’s wrist and repeating the motion. Caleb blinks, staring down at the wire before meeting Essek’s gaze again. Essek feels him start to tug his hand out, and tightens his grip.
“Do you trust me?”
“I—” Caleb starts, before breaking off, his blue eyes wide.
“Do you trust me?” he repeats, more urgently this time. He has only moments before the door behind him will burst open.
———
In which Essek teaches Caleb the practical application of tether essence.
