    Summary

    Noel knows he is going to die one day. Except, when he walks into what he is sure would be certain death, he survives, somehow, as always, crawling to another day. Tossed to the side before he can even take a dying breath, Noel finds himself thrown from the Order of the Fallen Star back to the one place he’d sworn to never see again: the Dreamlands.

    Yellow knows he is going to be King one day. But just before he could grab ahold of the power he deserves, the only power he had ever even had the chance to take for himself, Yellow wakes up in an unknown land with a dying Larson at his side— and in his own body.

    Together, Noel and Yellow know that they're fucked.

    Both are trapped in a land that one calls Hell, and the other home, and neither can agree on. A strange power keeps them bound together and unable to part ways, and so without a choice, they must find a path forward, even if they cannot agree upon which path that is. No matter where they head or what challenges they face, they’ll have to find out whether they will drag each other to the depths and suffocate, or if they can manage to lift each other’s heads above the water and swim to shore.

    Summary

    Do you see with that yellowed eye, the green ones staring back at you? Do you see the dark sky, the purple light of the sun that is wrong? Do you hear the laughter of a madman and the cries of the insane? Do you wish time to turn back all the way before you knew love? Do you wish the day that you bring would never come, the day of wrath forever gone? Do you wish the eye would not see you and the yellow gaze turned away? Tell me your wish, give me your fear.

    Statement of Arthur Lester, regarding the end of the world.
    Statement begins.

    Summary

    ───────────────────────────

    Derek Hutchins was dead.

    Or, at least... He was supposed to be.

    He remembered everything so clearly. Dissolving the King, feeling his brain practically melt behind his eyes—yes, he was certain he had died.

    So...

    Why—No, how was he still here?

    Summary

    "Who are you?" Oscar asked, attempting to ignore the large lump in his throat that couldn't be swallowed away. He had to stay calm, he couldn't lose himself now.

    I am the King in Yellow, an old powerful god. Now that you're my host, you will do as I say, or I will kill you where you stand.

    Blackmail. The voice in Oscar's head was attempting to blackmail him.

    The King in Yellow? The deity sounded familiar, but for the life of him, Oscar couldn't recall much about him, other than likely…

    He was no threat.

    (What if Yellow was inside Oscar's head)

    Summary

    Average college student Derek Hutchins wakes up with no memory of who he is or what has happened, only a nameless, eerie voice guiding him through the darkness.

    Blind, confused, and definitely not scared, his journey will lead him towards a series of mysteries in the hopes of understanding the truth of what has transpired.

    As cosmic horrors seep into the world around, Derek must ask himself whether this voice truly seeks to help him, or are its intentions more… malevolent?

    Summary

    Cassandra and Odysseus Claymore want to speak with Arthur Lester.
    Yellow doesn’t want to do that.
    But instead of just saying that Yellow decides he should make it seem like their idea not to talk to him.

    Foolproof plan!

    Summary

    Arthur Lester didn't believe in ghosts. So, checking the attic after his daughter drew a creepy yellow demon named "Mister Doe" is just to make sure there are't any animals up there. No other reason. Except the Piano that looks freshly cleaned. The piano that is still in tune. The piano that when Arthur started playing it, summoned a demon in a yellow cloak.

    Arthur Lester totally doesn't believe in ghosts. Or Gods. Or Reincarnation. Right?

    Summary

    He and Arthur had been working together for the past couple of years and had been fine until the Emily case. It had them both on edge. Sure, Arthur had a temper and he was more stubborn than a mule, but this? His… assault on Peter - it seemed so out of character. The man had his issues. And secrets. Peter gave him his space for that, as he should because that’s what friends did. But to do what he did would surprise anyone who knew him. It was anything unlike Arthur Lester.

    Or: What if Peter lived?

    Summary

    Private investigator Noel Finley is hired by Daniel Saltzman to find his missing son-in-law and granddaughter.

    Instead he stumbles into a world where time moves only when asked, a talking skull runs the help desk, magic threads itself through even the smallest hands, and ancient gods often stop by to enjoy a drink or two.

    Summary

    After being killed by the Witch, Arthur is left in the Dark World- alone. John's been returned to the Dreamlands, at the mercy of the King, who is intent on breaking him down into pieces that fit back neatly into the whole. Back on Earth, those they left behind have to decide just how far they're willing to go to for Arthur and his lost passenger. Very loosely a Hadestown AU.
