    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.

    This will be remembered as a classic scarian fic and if it isn't I will be so sad.

    Summary

    Another scream rose in his throat. He wondered how much longer it would go on for, how much longer before what was left of his voice gave out, or whether he was just doomed to scream forever.

    He wanted it to stop. He wanted this all to stop. Most of all, though, he wanted what he couldn’t have.

    Revenge.

    ---
    Or;
    Grian never made it out of the dark and dingy basement, never made his escape from the town that haunted his teen years. Sam went too far, and now Grian is dead.
    However, he's far from the only ghost to roam the halls of a cursed high school at night. Finding himself trapped within the halls he once walked when he was alive, Grian is determined to make something of this seemingly endless existence.
    He just never quite expected that something to be a family.

    Summary

    She showed up at Kris’s door with her hood up and her tail twitching, smelling like smoke that wasn’t hers. She had one of her mother’s old flannels tied around her waist, the sleeves long and dragging. Kris didn’t ask. Just stepped aside.

    Toriel, from the kitchen, poked her head out and said only: “Shoes off, dear. I just mopped.”

    Like Susie belonged there.

    Like she wasn’t a guest anymore.

    Kris gave her the couch and curled up on Chariel. Susie protested, at first—“It’s your damn house, dude,” she said, “I can sleep on the floor, I’ve done it before”—but Kris was already half-buried in blankets and completely silent, which meant the conversation was over.

    At some point, when the house had gone completely quiet and the shadows settled, Susie whispered:

    “Hey.”

    Kris shifted their head to look at her.

    The moonlight caught her hair, the jagged edge of her teeth. Her eyes were clearer than they ever were at school. No posturing. No sneer. Just Susie. Bare and real in a borrowed T-shirt, her knees pulled up, her voice a rasp.
