Summary
Rody Soul didn’t think of himself as a particularly emotional person. He’d never had the opportunity to sit down and sift through all the shit in his head, all the things that happened when he was young, and try to make sense of it all. Who has time for self-actualization when you’re a criminal running around Otheon like a rat in a maze just to afford to feed your kids? It was embarrassing, almost, how unprepared he was to deal with the revoltingly honest mess in his head rushing up to meet him once the universe finally decided to give him a break.
A story about finding yourself in the aftermath.

Summary
You blink. You've just awoken to the dulcet tones of Fred Durst yelling about the way that it's just one of those days when you don't want to wake up. Raising your very uninjured arm and pressing your hand against your eyes so hard you start seeing stars, you just might have to agree with his assessment. Because it is one of those days where everything is fucked. Everybody does, in fact, suck.
Your name is DIRK STRIDER, and this is the third time you've woken up on this exact morning.
You just might have to start breaking stuff.⁙
In a world slightly off from the one we are used to, the Striders end up stuck in a Groundhog Day-esque time loop.
How do you get out of a labyrinth when all you have is a string that keeps fraying?Series

You wake up. You think it's a nightmare. But a text from your sister -- from Jasprose -- makes you realize this is all too real.
Your name was DAVEPETASPRITE^2.
Your head is horribly, horribly empty.
The date is April 13th, 2009.
How do you cope?

Author wanted to write some short drabbles about Jax's time in therapy after the events of "That Sort of Thing."Series

Summary
"Holy crap!" exclaimed the ragdoll. "Ribbit? How the-?!"
"You!" the even odder-looking stranger accused, sounding strikingly butch for an androgynous collection of... doinks? Was that the word?
Didn't matter. Faced with this unknown social threat, the frog fell back on instinct.
"Yyyyyyyup," answered 'Ribbit' casually. "Long time no see, guys!"
She didn't know any of these fucking people.
---
In late August of 2017, a series of .zip files were transmitted to Conversant Solutions, a company investing in computational and robotics technologies. When compiled, these files divulged a nigh-impenetrable thicket of LISP programming, a digital facsimile of the C&A office building circa 1996, and five "neural scans."
Despite buying out C&A nine years prior, only one of ConverSol's many hires held the prerequisite experience interfacing with C&A tech to parse this data. The fact that said experience involved breaking into a disused building to get high with her buddies is neither here nor there.
A simulation is coded, a headset donned — and a second copy of Ribbit hurtles headlong into the digital abyss.
