His Mother's Hamartia by @100dabbo

Sus-ception, by aristotle-chipotle

10.3k words, rated T, no archive warnings apply

Tasked with setting up subconscious training exercises for the team before the job, Ariadne gets the idea to design a world based on her new favorite video game.

Six players. One imposter. All they have to do is vote the right person off. It's a test of instinct and intuition, and good practice for working as a team. But working as a team isn't easy when you're on an unstable spaceship straight out of a nightmare, and you don't know who you can trust.

What could possibly go wrong?

Maybe it was all real. Maybe when the wall finally crushed his skull and punctured his lungs he would actually die and be left there to rot.

Or maybe they were still in a dream, and he would open his eyes back in the warehouse with the only pain on his body being the needle on his wrist.

Or: Team bonding after Arthur has a particularly bad nightmare.

The Art of Precious Scars by @iamanonniemouse

5.7k words, rated G, no archive warnings apply

When Phillipa was a little girl, she knew what her parents were doing, but she didn’t understand.

She knew that they were researching and developing something that made them very excited. She knew it involved a shiny box with clear, octopus-tentacle tubes, and she knew it made them sleepy.

But she didn’t understand what exactly that shiny box did, or how dangerous it could be.

And she certainly didn’t understand that it would be the thing that tore her family apart.
