Summary
He finds a deep, inadequate misery towards himself at everything he does, too young to fully process these emotions, and Mom not the kind to address them. They would fade eventually, if he had ample distraction - toys, TV, other children, real school, but he has none of those things, and so the feelings could only fester: at a point, all he can do to cope is attempt to compartmentalize them, use his imagination like Dad taught him to escape the troubles of the real world.

Summary
The Lord of Shades had finally defeated The Radiance. Now the Void Given Focus prepared itself to return to Hallownest, where the rest of its family and companions awaited its return. However, its plans were interrupted by the glow of a white flower.
Since then, the Shade Lord has been trapped inside Godhome without a way to return. Determined to reach Hallownest one way or another, the God used the Essence that The Radiance had released upon death and its own Awoken Dream Nail to escape Godhome and venture into the Dream Realm beyond.
It lacked the abilities to navigate this place, but that would not stop the Shade Lord from learning how to. Given time, it would find its way back. Meanwhile however, perhaps it should explore the dreams that lay here? One such dream caught the God's attention. One that was big in size and held lots of power inside.
Although the Shade Lord didn't know it at the time, that dream belonged to a small human child trapped inside a golden chest. That kid's name? Isaac Moriah.

Summary
Gangle's always been rather clingy, usually to her detriment. It seemed to work out this time.
Wherein seven people leave the Circus, six bodies wake up, but no one was lost.
A sentimental post-escape exploration of characters and relationships that has rapidly grown out of control. Focuses mainly on Gangle and Caine but neither are good at letting their friends go.

Summary
It's 1982, and Aperture Science has made a breakthrough in the development of AI, having successfully completed the first ever artificial duplication of a human mind. The prototype speaks and thinks just like its progenitor, the scatterbrained yet determined Doctor Wheatley, but the question remains: is the digital copy truly the same as the human it believes itself to be? Is it happy to exist as it does? And why does it insist on being treated like a person?
Well, there's only one way to find out. It's time to test. And test. And test. And test.
