Summary
Slowly, he trudges across the landscape. The sand makes no sound as his feet displace it; or maybe he just isn’t paying enough attention to hear it. Either way, the only thing he can focus on is the waves sloshing up the shore.
Killer always loved the ocean.

Summary
Seriously? ‘‘April Fools’’? Why? Why must there be holidays? No, actually, he gets why there’s holidays. The question is: why do his subordinates feel the need to celebrate them? And drag him into it? Why?

In which Nightmare is nearly pulled into another holiday but instead leaves his subordinates home alone on April Fools Day. This fic is part of a series, but it’s not necessary to read the previous one. Although you probably should because there’s a few references to it in this.
Ch. 1 is Nightmare’s PoV, ch. 2 is Horror’s PoV, ch. 3 is Cross’ PoV, ch. 4 is Killer’s PoV, ch. 5 is Dust’s PoV.

Summary
Optimus Prime is torn from his universe by a ground bridge malfunction, only to be thrust into a parallel world.
Determined to lay low and avoid interfering in a world not his own, he’s pulled off course when something tugs at his Matrix, guiding him toward an AllSpark shard. Each fragment he recovers restores pieces of the memories he lost when he became a Prime—memories of his time on the Nemesis that were never meant to resurface.
In a universe where Autobot and Decepticon ideals are nearly reversed, Optimus finds himself instinctively aligning with the Decepticons instead of the Autobots. Working alongside Megatron, he’s forced to confront the mental scars he’s long buried.
As he strives to restore the AllSpark and reclaim his fractured identity, Optimus searches for a way back home with Decepticon help. But with realities diverging and loyalties shifting, the question remains:
Will he make it back to his universe, or will his team find their way to him first?Bookmarked by CrypticLoach

Summary
The Multiverse is vast and nigh infinite, possibilities, concepts, the very function of a world's reality only limited by sheer creativity.
Within this realm, Dreamtale exists as an enigma, plucked from another Multiverse entirely. The tragedy of it's Story forced to continue beyond it's Endings, for it forced the concept of Balance into the Multiverse's rules. Now open-ended, the only two Characters wanders throughout the Multiverse as one of it's Outcodes.
Dream broke out of stone to one colorful and curious Inkblot, so much to comprehend for someone so small. But alive nonetheless.
Nightmare woke up freshly dead.
Au: Get it? Cuzhe died lmao

Summary
EBOTT CITY, 191X
Three years have passed since the two districts of humans and monsters reunited, leaving their differences, which once resulted in a civil war, behind in order to strive for a brighter future together.
In the area of Roadin, you can find a little stationery shop called "Doodlesphere", owned by a certain skeleton monster: a carefree, cheerful artist and storyteller named Ink. Despite leading a relatively unexciting life up until now, his natural ability to run into trouble causes him to bump into Error one day, the so-called "Destroyer of Progress".
Because Ink is always having dreams about other universes with Error being his archenemy, the artist decides to follow said businessman out of curiosity, only to realize that he and other "outcodes" are experiencing similar dreams that seem to be connected with one another.
So now what? Ink working together with the short-tempered Destroyer to solve this mystery sounds like a dangerous idea, right? Especially if you consider Error's relation to Nightmare's gang, the infamous mafia group which is causing restlessness in Ebott City right now...Series
