  Summary

  Michael Afton didn't have what you would call the ideal life. It was a fucking mess actually, he just didn't realize it at the time, but oh boy would he!

  Watch as one child goes through so pain and torment and ends up getting absolutely nothing in return.

  Summary

  A loving mother who died too soon to see her son grow up. A powerful villain struck down by the greatest hero. An innocent child killed in an accident.

  The three major deaths of the Animator vs. Animation series.

  Except, they've been brought back. And they've been promised revenge, and their families back.

  ----

  What if Victim and the Mercs resurrected Pink, Dark and Gold? A post-AVA Season 3 AU.

  (DECEMBER UPDATE: The first five chapters were written before AVA 11. I updated them to keep things closer to canon after AVA 11 dropped, but be aware of this.)

  Summary

  In which Green's YouTube obsession lasts months on end. In which Green leaves her fake friends once they find a "better" her. In which Green has nothing but her fans at this point.

  In which Green fucks up with her chance to be with Purple, and finds out her best friend loved her for years, only to move on for her copycat.

  Summary

  AKA Mike and Charlie meet for the first time and become friends. Featuring Charlie's ambiguously-requited crush on Mike.
