Summary
Perhaps this was a Curse of its own: spared from agonizing lithification, but afforded no escape from the slow advance of time under Sanbreque’s cruel heel.
Clive continues to serve Sanbreque for many, many long years.
--
The Bastards never find Shiva, Cid never rescues Clive, and he remains under Imperial slavery. -

Summary
Jill wakes with a whispered gasp, her fingers clutching into the pillow that still faintly smelled of him. The dream which stirred her still fluttered in the corner of her mind: a gentle brush against her neck, familiar lips and a warm breath. The sensation jolts her awake, heart in suspense at the susurration of a kiss, only for the sinking feeling in her gut at the realization it was only her own hair brushing against her neck, disturbed by the breeze slipping through the window.
-
The echoes of Clive’s presence haunt Jill, his touch could be felt everywhere. She can see his memory haunt the Hideaway. And it may be more than a wishful dream born from her sorrow.

~~~
canon divergence from Phoenix Gates: Clive was taken by Sanbreque, not as a Branded, but as a Dominant where he was coerced to serve for years. Until it came to a head and he left his captors behind for the promise of a brighter future for Dominants.

Summary
A siren screamed, shrill and loud. It echoing throughout Insomnia. A warning that the Wall shall be opened, a first since its creation. After a short pause, their artificial sky groaned, like a monster waking from a long slumber and the black surface rippled as it parted. A beam of light, so bright, it blinded him. It shone down like a pathway to the heavens. A shadow appeared in the gate, a massive Niflheim airship, with spinning bladed engines, slowly descended in the City of Eternal Night, its sharp silhouette shining under the sunlight.
For Lucis, it was the beginning of the end

The King in Green by Vain

Summary
Loki, God of Stories, the king of everything and nothing, sits alone on his throne, bound by his own free will and guarding eternity until the end of time. And he's okay with that. Mobius and Sylvie are safe. The TVA is safe. Thor is safe. It's worth it. It's his only source of comfort in the emptiness of his timeless realm.
But not everyone is okay with that.
The present haunts the God of Thunder with dark visions of timelines fractured and his brother bound in gold-green chains as universes turn to ash around him. The past haunts the Goddess of Mischief--opportunities lost, debts unpaid, words unspoken. The future haunts an aging Analyst out of work, out of place, and out of time. Time itself haunts the Witch and the Sorcerer, even as the reality of families found, sacrifice, and obligation bind them fast to their disparate purposes. And still the war comes.
The ouroboros must be completed: everything that begins ends again. And from heroes, gods, villains, and Conquerors, King Slayers are born.

Summary
“…how can it be that God has foreknowledge of all future events, and yet that we do not sin by necessity?”
— Evodius, On Free Choice of the Will
—In the vast expanse of the multiverse, every impossibility is possible. All it takes is a single detail— that one butterfly flapping its wings in the right place at the right time. The result is the multiverse.
Out of infinitely many butterflies, one just happened to make an improbable probability all the more probable.Time shattered, but Time remained.
A god who sits on his throne for eternity opens his eyes to the void.A new branch grows from the infinite tree.
—
Or;
Even the one who sees every timeline at once cannot predict every infinite possibility. The God of Stories definitely didn’t predict this.Bookmarked by ChirpingBeak

Summary
A thought niggles in the back of her mind as she reaches the end; something feels...off. It takes walking up the other side for her to realize what it is: the interior length and the exterior don’t match up. The exterior is longer...which means—
“There’s a hidden compartment,” she mutters to herself. “So much for never lying, Lucifer.”
Chloe decides to look further into her partner's mysterious cargo container and gets much more than she bargained for. Lucifer goes to great lengths in the hopes of saving his partner. And realizes a few things about himself along the way.
