Fics Written in the Stars

Modern AU, Salt tracks down his college ex-boyfriend after a messy break-up to find him happily married to a pretty blonde with a few kids, living in the same city as most of their old college friend group.

It's a coincidence that he moved to the city a week later. It is.

Ahhh man, and that making it modern reminds me of my ShadowSalt one shot One Night

---

It's a coincidence when he discovers Fount's favorite cafe.

It's a coincidence when he finds the neighborhood where Fount lives.

It's a coincidence when he finds Fount's workplace.

It's a coincidence when he finds the park where Fount takes his kids.

The two oldest, twins, have a blend of features, but the little girl looks JUST like Fount. He watches them play on the playground, running around and screaming gleefully, completely unaware this was the same playground he and their father played on as kids.

Fount keeps an eye on his children while also sitting and offering comfort and support to his very pregnant wife.

Salt is not irritated, not bitter, and not even a little upset to see how thoroughly he'd been erased from Fount's mind.

Just a few quick peeks at the clones and the set up of a plotline...

Mirthful Stevia I promise I'm working on your intro chapter, I don't have an excuse for writing it yet like I do Valiant...

FUCK YOU

He had no choice! All Might was going to be there!

@mightydragoon  #i love how they never get caught#shouto just wears the most stupid of diguises in front of Endeavors face and gets away with it

@cryptid-crawly The problem with this plan is that, while Shouto is 100% okay with being kidnapped, he refuses to actually return to Endeavor. Izuku’s kidnapping attempt fails because the hostage does not want to be let go.#Shouto proposes a new plan: they just use his dad’s credit card#fic ideas#this is outstanding op

@redsparrow12  #Oh my GOD#Izuku’s been reading a lot of comic books lately#Which means his plan is FOOLPROOF#featuring: Izuku and Shouto getting in to Hero Con with Todoroki’s name and just chilling out all day#Endeavor: HAVE YOU SEEN MY SON

@blue-roz-blog 😂😂😂😂😂#Damn it!#The plot potential so good that I really wanna see this as fic!

@superfalseentity Plot twist: Shoto helps and they end up going together to see All Might.

@katkit-42This can’t not be a DFO au. Who else would raise a kid who’s first thought was “want thing => thing cost money => kidnap and ransom make money”

"Oh. Um. "Sun twiddled with his thumbs."Everyone's a little bit.." Attendant hesitated. ".. broken, but it's okay! Broken things can be pretty, too. That's how mosaics are made."

Real smooth. Moon remarked.

Sometimes being broken isn't about trying to put things back together like they were before. It's about picking up what pieces are left and building something new.

"...I'm sorry."

"…are you…" He paused. "Are you alright?"

Vanessa looked up, eyes wide. "Are you seriously asking me that? I…" She looked around. Once, the private rooms of the Daycare Attendant would be clean and tidied, both by him and the staff. Now, it was a gigantic mess, with remains of staff bots and trash everywhere and thick cobwebs in the corners. "I ruined everything. I hurt you. I hurt all of you."

She just wasn't referring to them. Not even just adding Arnold.

She had hurt everyone.

The Glamrocks were fractured. Their companions were gone, dead, leaving the VR world empty and silent. It was just her and Gregory now.

All because of her mistakes.

The Ghost Bride Protocol was designed to enhance employee safety. Now, so many were dead. Not just employees, but children.

This wasn't meant to happen.

"…Hey…um…" Hands cupped her face. "…it's not all of your fault. Not really." Those hands moved down to her shoulders and then pulled her close. "You did your best, right?"

"…hm…"

He sat down, and she followed, curling up close. She was warm, and they pressed close.

"…We missed you."

"…I missed you too." Her hands rubbed circles in his back. "…I'm going to fix this. I'm going to find a way to fix this. I promise."

previous / next

Hollyberry, after being treated by some of the angels: "I don't wish to sound needy, but is Eternal Sugar alright? I presumed she would want to greet me."

Sugar Angel, about to dish the gossip: "Oh, Mistress Hollyberry, you have no idea."

And the only reason Pure Vanilla went was to act as a buffer and back up for Hollyberry (Champagne begged and pleaded and clung to his leg. He had to promise to bring her back a flower from Beast-Yeast (she loved flowers) and smothered her cheek in kisses so she would let him go).

"I must say...if this is the greeting you're receiving, perhaps your other half really has changed for the better." Pure Vanilla smiled and politely declined a glass of juice a sugar angel held out to him.

Hollyberry frowned, "No...something's wrong...I can feel it." She waited until all the attending sugar angels were gone before she waved for Pure Vanilla to follow her. "Come on, I know someone who might help us get some information."

Pure Vanilla followed.

Hollyberry approached a smaller temple and peeked inside, "Pavlova? Where's your mother?"

Pure Vanilla peeked around her and saw a young man with pink, white, and red curly hair hanging in his face. He looked lazily over at them, then eyed them both up and down, "Oh. You're back." He went back to writing.

Well.

Not actually writing.

He was using an enchanted sugar quill to write on a scroll that hung in his face with magic.

"Pavlova, I'm serious." Hollyberry leaned on the temple wall and crossed her arms, "Where's Eternal Sugar?"

Pavlova rolled his eyes, "Probably yelling at her 'sugar baby', I don't know." He shrugged.

"Sugar baby?" Pure Vanilla raised his eyes.

Hollyberry blushed and stammered, "She - huh - her what!?"

"Not that kind of sugar baby, you freaks," Pavlova scrunched his face up in disgust, "Her son." They both looked at him blankly, "You know," He gestured vaguely, "Black Sapphire."

Pure Vanilla gripped his staff tightly, "Black Sapphire is Eternal Sugar's son!?" He shouted.

Pavlova eyed him up and down, then spotted his Soul Jam. "Uh oh..."

"Why didn't you tell me he was her son!?"

"I didn't know!! Isn't Black Sapphire —,"

"Yes!!"

"Uhhh," Pavlova held up a finger, "He's also," Both Heroes whipped around to glare at him, "Shadow Milk's son..."

Hollyberry's eyes got wide, "You mean..."

Pure Vanilla couldn't believe what he was hearing, "My other half..."

"And my other half..?" Hollyberry and Pure Vanilla exchanged uneasy glances, then glanced at their Soul Jams and subtly pulled them away from each other.

Hollyberry shook her head, "Irrelevant, Eternal Sugar is here?"

Pavlova nodded wordlessly.

"Come on," Hollyberry nodded for Pure Vanilla to follow her again, "I can't believe!" She grumbled, "I knew Pav was her son, but I had no idea she had another son!"

"You can't believe??" Pure Vanilla huffed, practically jogging to keep up with her, "I was trapped in the Spire for a month and had no idea Black Sapphire was Shadow Milk's son, I — oh my crumbs," He grabbed Hollyberry's arm and pulled her to a stop.

Hollyberry looked back at him shocked.

"Champagne," He said, "She's —!!"

"They're granddaughter." Hollyberry's eyes widened.

"And this could have all been avoided if you kept her in jam stasis." A voice snapped ahead of them.

"Hide!" Hollyberry shoved Pure Vanilla into a bush and dove in after him.

"Ough! Holly —!

"Shhh!"

The heroes watched as Eternal Sugar flew back, her tailed wrapped around the wrist of Black Sapphire, "You're 'oh so brilliant' father should have told you that!"

"Well, pardon me for enjoying sex with someone who is lucid, mother." Black Sapphire snarled, fighting against his mother's hold on his wrist.

"And now we have a little half-virtue running around in that Pure Vanilla Kingdom. And I swear, if I have to hear your father go on one more time about how his other half ruined this family, I will crumble him myself." Eternal Sugar snarled, still pulling her son after her.

"Funny, he said the same thing about you with your other half." Black Sapphire grumbled.

It became harder to hear them as they passed by.

But Doughael was a cult leader even when they were the High Forkbearer. They were charismatic and intelligent enough to pull people into their faith and they found Pure Vanilla Cookie at a point where he had nothing. They swept him into their community and gave him kinship he probably hadn't experienced in ages. Then, slowly, Pure Vanilla Cookie saw how extreme the High Forkbearer was becoming in their faith. How they were lying to people. And he left.

I think he likes the view

It’s implied they’re lonely and seek companionship during the Cyan scene, they tell Brown and Green how much they valued their friendship with Red during their intern days, but their underlying trust issues makes it hard for them to open up because they think they’ll be stabbed in the back and abandoned again.

I’ve been noticing fans trying to shove them into gendered boxes again based on their voices. It just gets tiring.

The thing is I constantly forget that a lot of people do genuinely view Purple as weak/fragile compared to Red and it surprises me every time bc I just keep replaying their fight sequence from episode 10 in my head. They were throwing HANDS.
