   Bookmarker's Notes

   "[strums ukulele] GIANT WOMAN" is legitimately making me cackle every time I look at the tags

   I think that can be said of all the dreamers tbh
   Except Lurien because he is short af

   Anyway. This fic has caused me to gain a new understanding of the phrase *Spoon Theory* ("oh no, not the spoons!!!")
   And now I fucking laugh every time I'm loading the dishwasher.
   The wider jokes about PK in Hollow Knight have already ruined FORKS too...

   Anyway 100000/10 fic, you will cry and laugh and scream into a pillow about these dumbasses. Please read this if you have the time...or re read this like I have been

   Summary

   You watch the infection swallow the kingdom whole, until the day it makes its way within the archive's walls.
   Until the day it makes its way into your head.
   Until the day you find yourself collapsed in the arms of someone who shouldn't have to deal with this, but is happy to do so anyways.

   Or, some angsty platonic quirrel and reader content

   Summary

   Simon waited.

   Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.

   But that never came.

   Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”

   Simon blinked slowly. “What?”
