I've had this one for a couple years now, but I never really did much with it except the basic concept.

Basically GhostToast haven't seen each other in years after a nasty fight. They Both end up on the Infinity Train and even though they are still not together they share a number (Rymin style lol). They journey through the train, find each other and finally get some therapy! All the weird stuff that usually happens in venturiantale vids are basically what the train cars are like in this au.

Spooker is a denizen of the train and he is traveling with Colon who is a human. The Acachalla's are a mix of humans and denizens who have settled in one of the train cars and don't really plan on leaving the train.

Aaaaaand thats basically as far as I got, I had a few ideas for some angsty parts (doomed yaoi) but overall not much happened with this one (mainly because I was working on other au's and projects.)

I do have a singular piece of concept art that I redid for this post:

To Live On The Moon With You, by toastghost

 (here for the covers)

Favorite quotes:

Louis wishes that Zayn would just fuck off because he cares too much and Louis loves him but sometimes he doesn't want to be cared about. There are days where he doesn't want to be loved and this is one of them. There are days when he wants to live under sea in a salt water city, because what's the difference when he can barely breathe above the ocean anyway.

There are days when he just feels like not waking up. And it's not, it's not like he wants to die because he doesn't, he is perfectly happy with life and living and parading around in a facade of coherent thoughts, but there is a difference between being awake and waking up.

i'm going to draw another moon and another sun, and a house made out of stars, for shelter when it rains.

And, this boy - he's like the lighthouse, guiding in the ships because sometimes the sailors are the saddest people, and he's bringing them home. And he doesn't have to say a word, really, because he's got this infectious smile and it feels like you're reading a book on how to laugh again. And I don't know him, this boy, and sometimes I feel like I don't know how to laugh, but he makes me want to learn.

he reached the surface, one day, but when he climbed onto the shore, he found that his throat closed up and his eyes bulged out, and he discovered that in trying to find the land, he'd become one with the sea.

they say the sky is the limit, but what if i want to go to the moon on mars?

He writes it out on his forearms in black ink pen, and it's barely legible because it's dark and he's lost and it's stupid because he wants the colour and yet he's drowning himself in shadows[...]

you're a crevice of colour in a drowning city made of ice and if i'm made of glass and paper and blood and bones then you're making the earth feel like a planet again.

I want to paint the moon all different colours I'm sick of shining white, I want to make a rainbow. I want to live on the moon with you.

Louis likes spray paint, then, and he likes magic and he likes aliens and he likes to write. He likes Christmas because Christmas means getting pissed with Zayn the week before in a little celebration where they give each other presents that they buy for strictly less than £10, it's a rule, and so they end up with assortments of little key rings and notepads and cheap paints for Zayn, and maybe a mix-tape thrown in and Louis might get a new biro or some of those temporary tattoos intended for kids, and it's wonderful. It also means Doncaster, Louis' mother and his sisters and it means hot chocolate and the piano and Christmas films and his mum's cooking and plaiting Lottie's hair and home. It's home. It's feeling safe, feeling secure, just like the back of bookshops once again.

He likes key chains and his sisters' charm bracelets and silver and gold. Louis really loves beautiful things and so it's no wonder, really, that the boy in the ice cream shop catches his eye.
