Summary
All these works are st minimum loosely tied to an Adventure Time AU of mine, which mostly follows that Finn's crown was knocked off of him at the end of Crossover, but not moved back in time, so he still has it. This isn't required knowledge for some of the fics, as it's not always center focus.

Summary
He came honestly, by some series of hints and implications half-understood, to believe that the relations between his oarsman and his harpooneer were apart from the whalemens’ bond of brothers-in-arms, or in-boat as the case may be; and for separate reasons shortly to be expiated, he came to believe that for once it would not do to let the matter stand in silence.

Summary
Things… change.
Ghost supposes that many would probably say that they get better. They do get better, don’t they? Yes, they do. Things change, and they are better. The Infection is gone, and Hollow is safe, and Hornet is happy, and so Ghost is fine. Perhaps they are selfish, and they mourn a dying world that they can never return to, and they are more alone than ever before, but they’ll get over it.
…And it’s not as if anyone will notice if they don’t.
-
Ghost goes back in time, kills the Radiance, and sets everything right. They tell no one, and do it on their own. It is only after their family is happy, and the kingdom is safe, and the Abyss is soothed to sleep, that they realize just how lonely it is as the last remaining piece of a future never to be.- Language:

Deeper Wonders than the Waves by vibishan for the_alchemist

Summary
The first moment his one remaining foot comes down on solid land, his guts roll like frenzied eels. Ahab has not suffered such rumblings of rebellion from his stomach in a dozen years. Ahab’s gorge did not rise when his leg was torn away, nor when the ragged end cauterized with iron to save his life’s blood pouring out, and he smelled the scorch of his own ill-butchered meat.
But now the blunt, grimy jumble of the street cobbles seems to reject him, only for his dismasted, unbalanced body to reject it in turn. The eternal roll of waves in his blood crashes against the rock of that simple step and then plunges back into his depths, leaving him haloed round with sick miasma as the sea air encompasses the hanging weight of invisible brine.
