    Summary

    The capsule touches down on Erid about a decade and a half after I do.

    There's a message inside translated into fourteen different languages. Y'know, just in case I've taught myself - and then the Eridians - Afrikaans.

    Hey, it reads. Can we have our ball back, please?

    Summary

    I can give you the power to make them listen, the voice crooned. All of them. No adult will ever ignore a child's testimony again... all I want...

    Yes...? some instinctive curiosity in Conan prodded.

    Everything went black.

    Summary

    One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.

    “What are you fucking giggling about?”

    The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.

    “It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.

    “Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.

    “I know because I was in one, asshole.”

    ------

    During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.

    Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.

    Flambae does not.

    Summary

    “–Come Durin’s Day, the Mountain will host great entertainments, games, and feasting in your name and in the names of the other thirteen of the Company. Your path through all of Arda shall be made smooth to ensure your welcome in our lands, Bilbo Baggins. I bring this summons as it was sent from the Throne of Thorin, King Under the Mountain.”

    Bilbo’s heart, racing as it had been from this thrilling invitation, seemed to trip over itself at the name. “Thorin?” he whispered, and he stepped forward without thinking.

    --

     

    Or: Bilbo learns that his story isn’t actually a tragedy, and that happy endings still take a bit of luck.

    Summary

    Miles toed the ground with the tip of his shoe, eyes downcast as he studied the traces through the dirt. Around him his unlikely friend gathered the few items they found to take with him on the next leg of his quest. A tightness tugged at his chest as he watched his new found companion prepare to depart, leaving him alone once again.

    Miles cleared his throat softly, causing the older boy to stop his movements and look at the small kit.

    "Is there something you need, fox?"

    Miles swallowed hard, moving his eyes to look up toward the boy's face. He worried his lower lip as he tried to gain the courage he would need to ask his question. Intense purple orbs continued to study his small frame, making the tightness increase.

    "Umm." he stuttered, pulling his hands back behind his back. "What if...I mean...would it be possible if..." Miles stopped, taking a deep breath to find his courage. "Could I come with you?"

    ~~~~~~

    How would things change if Knuckles and Tails met before their fated trip to Earth? A world where two companions met in different circumstances. A story of companionship, angst, and unlikely friends with a bit of adventure thrown into the mix.
