Summary
“You’re not angry for them,” he says, quiet and damning. “You’re angry for yourself. You’re angry because you—because you think I betrayed you. You think you were a tool to me, and that I never cared, and Jon, you couldn’t be more wrong.”

All the things she said by MagicalGhost96 for pensivetense

Summary
He doesn't possess the energy to lift his limbs, not even to twist himself away. He doesn't feel a floor or matter or anything, its just him existing in a void, a very fucking BORING void!!!
Anything would be more interesting than this.
Yet he still remains without a response and for a few moments he feels….ohhh boy what is it that he feels? what's the word!? Its such a feeling like being gutted like a fish! Oh oh, or maybe like peeling one's skin off. Or perhaps like that time he tore Arthur apart!
That memory remains a favourite one of his, even if it also made the equivalent of whatever passes as a heart inside of him pump weirdly for a while. He thinks about the agonized yells as his blood simply splashed all over him and little dandelion over there screamed at him, at Arthur, telling him the very obvious thing of him being torn apart! Honestly that was just rubbing salt into the wound, as if dear Arty couldn't fucking tell what was happening to him.
God John, you just don't tell someone they are being eviscerated-
He throws a mad fit of giggles at the joke.

Summary
“Well, Sam,” said Frodo one sunny afternoon as they sat together in the garden, “what do you think of Elves, now that you have seen Elvenhome?” He spoke with a smile, and both of them remembered the times before that he had asked the question—after first meeting Gildor and his party and spending the night with them at Woody End, and later at Rivendell, and later still as their sojourn in Lothlórien came to an end. It was practically tradition.

Summary
AM has proven to its humans that they cannot live without it —and, although it would never admit or show it, to itself— that torture no longer pleases it as it once had.
But it still has an ace up its sleeve.
Religion, music, and a little indulgence from those it had tortured for ages should make the whole thing far more entertaining! (Yet... was that ever a good idea?)

Summary
Ryland Grace wakes up in a small room alone, where the walls are wrong, his body is wrong, and there's a rock spider like nothing he's ever seen looming over him. He has no memory of how a middle school science teacher could've possibly ended up on an alien planet trillions of kilometers away from the nearest fellow human being- and yet these aliens seem determined to take good care of him.
/
The drug Grace was given to induce amnesia before going on the Hail Mary has unpredictable long-term side effects.
