Summary
Logan first realises he doesn’t want to die at age eight. A man kneels before him, palms kissing the marble floor.
Logan is alone, as his friends die around him. Fading in and out, he remembers some things he'd rather have forgotten, and some things he doesn't yet understand. As death creeps ever closer, he can't help but feel like their story has more to it.
And Logan’s been keeping secrets, including one that just might change the course of the Sides forever.

Summary
From the time Tommy was born, there was one rule. "Don't talk about dad". All he needed was his mum, who had stayed when his father hadn't. At least, so he'd been told. And life wasn't bad. He went to school, he had friends and a roof over his head. That was good enough.
All this changes when he pens the first letter.
Or, snapshots of Tommy's childhood

Summary
Hamelin is the kind of place people go to die. It seems every morning Tommy is awoken by the sound of someone's mother sobbing. Without a miracle, it'll be him and Tubbo waking up the village as Ranboo succumbs to illness. None of them are making it through the winter already, and Tommy has to believe they deserve better than becoming food for the rats. Then the miracle comes. In the form of a piper with a wooden flute, dark eyes, and colourful clothes.
And now... Everything changes.In a few hours, once the sun is down and gone, this will be over. Wilbur will lead away the rats, and Tommy will never get to know whether their acquaintanceship could’ve blossomed into more. His gut churns at the thought.
“You know Wilbur,” Tommy suddenly says. “I’m glad I got to meet you.”
“I’m glad I got to meet you too.” Wilbur smiles, and there is no doubt in Tommy’s heart that the piper is sincere.Inspired by "The Pied Piper of Hamelin"

Summary
Tommy’s story can be told in one of three ways.
One: through the ancient myths stuck to his skin, Theseus and Echo, stories of grandeur and tragic endings.
Two: through the reflections on a lake, refracting and revealing a himself years younger.
And three, the most damning: through the pain required in letting go of the relationships he most cherished, and trying to salvage what remains.
This is all three, and somehow none at all, for this is no longer simply his story.Sometimes, when you hurt with someone, it feels wrong not to heal together.

Summary
When Tommy was a child, he had a family.
An angel, a god, and a visionary.
But they fell apart.
So he found himself on a server promising the future. And here, he met a boy with horns, and built a nation surrounded by the people he loved. This was his second family, blown to smithereens.
Third time's the charm, he supposes, as he builds a relationship with a forest green man in a gasmask, a soft dog, and a woman who tells him stories of the seas. That time was the most brutal, beaten to death with bare bloody hands.
Tommy's grown cautious. They're all here, everyone, they're all here. Just separate, and he's pretty sure at least half of them hate him. Probably more than half, if he's being honest.Ok. He has one more time in him. One more life, one more time, one more chance.
Just one more time.
(redemption, release, and chances given and deserved)

Summary
What kind of person would litter instead of properly disposing of a phone?
You know you shouldn’t be looking at the contents of the phone… but… you could find the owner of this phone and then yell at them for littering! Yeah…
Or maybe they lost their phone by accident, and you’d be helping them by giving their phone back. Yeah…
You sit down on a chair by the wall, and pull out your little flip-notebook from your bag.
Time to solve the mystery of this phone’s owner.

Summary
Tommy was not going here. There was no way. He would starve himself before he spent a day there. It was vile, designed to make sure you stay alive while crushing your hope of escaping, through either the literal sense of freedom, or death.
He had— he had done so much. Tommy was exhausted. Exhausted from the fighting, from the mourning, from the separation. He might never see Tubbo again, so what was the harm in just… leaving? He had no one else to live for.
Tommy’s breath started to quicken, and it didn’t help that the arm around him tightened. He could start to see spots in his vision—hold it in for eight—he was going to suffocate.
Tommy passed out.

Bookmarker's Notes
not to wax poetic on main, but this piece perfectly encapsulates what it was that drew me into the dream smp in the first place. this isn't the Bad Ending, so much as it is the Raw Ending. it strips back the more humourous and deus ex machina aspect of the storyline (which i will argue for as a major component for the understanding of this server as a whole) and gets to the core of the emotions involved. i don't know, i don't have a lot of words, but it's rare to come across a piece that leaves you breathless, and this is one of those.

Summary
Tommy is an aspiring hero in a city full of the most powerful heroes. He's not well liked by the civilians and other heroes - more importantly, the police force, who is after him any chance they get. Despite the constant criticism, he tries his best to help.
After a battle with the Pyromanic Sapnap went wrong, he met some of his favorite heroes - the Sleepy Bois Inc, the most powerful in the city - no, the world. He'd looked up to them since he was small (er, smaller).
"What the fuck kind of name is Wife Haver, anyways?"
Clearly, the adoration was not mutual.

Summary
Wilbur gasps back to life with mud between his fingers and rain in his eyes.
Wilbur was dead. Now, he is not. He can't say that he's particularly happy about it.
Unfortunately, the server is still as tumultuous as ever, even with Dream locked away, so it seems that his involvement in things isn't a matter of if, but when.
(Alternatively: the prodigal son returns, and a broken family finally begins to heal. If, that is, the egg doesn't get them all killed first.)
