The Sides And Thomas Are Perfectly Conveyed Like They Are In Canon - Tumblr Posts
Eucatastrophe [Masterpost]
Here are some facts: All forests are connected. Some stories demand sacrifices. Nature has the strangest tendency towards uncanny symmetry. And none of the Sides are really prepared for a musical, magical, high-fantasy rescue mission, but it looks like that’s what they’re going to have to do anyway.
That is to say - Thomas seems to have been kidnapped by fairies.
Someone should really do something about that.
Hello, squamous friends, and welcome to my submission for this year’s @ts-storytime Big Bang! Now, it’s just possible that I may have gone overboard with this, but in my defense: I was left unsupervised.
many, many thanks to @autisticmight for being the BEST beta and pedantic detail research name person (i love u), and to my RL friends, who will probably never see this but still endured an incredible amount of fast-paced fae-lore infodumping at inopportune moments.
Word count: 99089 words
Characters: Thomas, Virgil, Janus, Roman, Logan, Patton, Remus, and a whole host of OCs. Joan and Talyn make brief appearances.
Pairing(s): Mostly gen (with intense platonic DRLAMPT). Background OC/OC. (well. sort of. it’s complicated)
Warnings: swearing, descriptions of panic attacks, something more or less adjacent to a binge-eating episode, mind control, altered mental states, existential panic, unreality, body horror, cosmic horror, light implied/referenced noncon, light fantasy violence, poisoning, suicide and suicide discussion (not re: main/canon character).

Wonderful art by @kakutaberry here! And my Spotify playlist is here, with quite a lot of spoilery songs for the story as a whole.
