Bookmarker's Notes
I am utterly demolished by teacher-and-student turned parent-and-child relationships.
Also by fic that remembers Eridians literally cannot forget anything, but that's besides the point.

Summary
If you accept that the soldier with long black hair in Rider's reality marble is indeed Waver, you must also accept that Waver Velvet has fought in the Fourth Holy Grail War twice, from two distinct vantage points, one with full knowledge of how the war must play out.

Summary
Mages have done any number of perilous, ill-conceived, and senseless things in a bid for power. In the grand scheme of things, the Holy Grail War is barely worth noticing. Waking up monsters that should never have been disturbed may be slightly higher on the list.
Waver Velvet is nineteen, possessed of a grudge, a relic, and a dangerously powerful desire to forge his own path. He’s going to do better than the mistakes of the past. Because if he doesn’t, it’s probably going to kill him.

Things That Crawl In The Dark by nerathator
Fandoms: Wild ARMs | Wild ARMs Alter Code: F (Video Game)
14 Jul 2026

Summary
Wind-tossed roadblocks arranged into a crude pathway would make an inviting entrance for any desperate traveller. The sound of the stampeding waterfall was just out of earshot as boots crossed the toppled wire fence. A stop sign bent out of sorts, prickled vines hugging porous walls with vigour. A discarded cellphone. Trodden on. Broken glass doors with faint, pained moans of the eroded building frame. Audible if everything else was silent.
Any whisper of Filgaia had been silenced for years, however.
A bulletin board, with reminders and pictures of employees. A fire hose and blanket. A coat on the sharp edge of a cabinet. A creaked, hanging jaw swinging under a set of jaundiced, glossy eyes.
A narrative retelling of the Wild Arms (PS1) story through the lens of a semi-modern zombie apocalypse. This came to me randomly in a chemistry class and I wanted to see the vision.

Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Summary
“They kept asking questions that had nothing to do with Quinn’s performance.” I roll my eyes and notice that I’m getting worked up again. Trying to get the midnight blue Eridian back on track had been a nightmare and I’d almost lost my composure a couple of times. “Just what I like to do and what I’ve seen of Erid so far and if they can give me a tour once my suit is finished. And they insisted I tell them what my favorite type of mineral is. I mean, why would they want to know that? What does that have to do with how their kid is doing in class?”
Midway through my rant Rocky has stopped carding his claw through my hair. He is silent for a few seconds and I’m just about to ask him if he’s alright when his whole body starts to tremble. It alarms me enough that I wiggle my arms underneath me and lift my upper body off the couch.
“Rock?”
But then the trembling morphs into full on shaking and then laughter so loud and shrill that I have to cover my ears.
