Summary
Time itself loops back around, back to a time before the cycle was ever a thing.
Fortunately for a few iterators - it brings them along with itself, to a time ages ago.Now Five Pebbles has to deal with being in a world full of bugs, sometimes seeing things he remembered from his old archives - dated to hundreds of thousands of years in the past -placed out and about and used as if they were brand new. He also keeps finding pearls written by NSH, but said iterator? Is nowhere to be found.
Hopefully he can figure out this strange place, and perhaps help heal this fallen kingdom.
After all, it just so happens that the power he used to enlighten beings in the past is enough to cure the strange "infection" that the creatures of this place seem to suffer from.
Well. It's just another task, is it not?(First chapter is the prologue, next ones will be Pebbles Centric and different. I simply wanted to set some lore down I otherwise couldn't.)

Summary
Xenomorph apocalypse, but horny. Everything is horny. Xenomorphs are all basically big, thick and sexy monster girls, facehuggers all have big hentai dicks to mind break gals with, with addictive cum.
Also, this was definitely not planned at all. From the moment I started this fic, I had no idea what I was doing

Summary
Finally, the first light of civilisation any of the marching bugs had seen in months was visible just over the horizon. The ringing of the bells halted, as the group’s leader stopped. A sign infront of them had only one character they understood, and even then it was written in a foreign style. But the character revealed that they had finally reached their destination: The Kingdom of the White Wyrm.
The veiled bugs picked up the runed cage again, and the bell chimes continued in rhythm to their march.

Summary
The Hollow Knight must not think, must not feel, nor dream, as to feel and think and dream was evidence of a mind and with a mind comes the potential of infection. It was given a purpose, to hold the Infection, to seal the light away in the darkness.
Yet it can feel its shell already starting to break.
It just wants to make its father proud.
After all, who can blame a child for loving its father?

Summary
"Yep. Nothing to panic about. No way to panic in the first place. Robots can’t panic, what are you a cop?
The AI directs them to follow a calculated step pattern, the numbers being taken from the last GPS connection, that should lead them to the destination.
Carefully, at a pace that will not harm any human, or property should there be a collision, G3-B makes their way forward.
And runs into a wall."or
A Mail Delivery Robot finds themselves spontaneously transported to Deepnest, and does their best to survive in a world of gigantic bugs. With the power of code, friendship, and extreme denial of any form of emotion they could possibly experience, they fix everyone's problems. More or less.

Summary
Death was not the end. For the Wyrm, it was ascension. For you, it was a cruel rebirth into a dying world - unchanged and laid bare.
Hallownest stands at the height of its splendor, yet a rot stirs beneath its polished surface. A mind-eroding plague spreads in silence, and in this rising sickness, the humanity that should have damned you instead gives you value.
To deny the desperate bugs is to shatter their hope. To accept is to invite a disaster born of faith. How do you survive a kingdom that admires the mediocrity you curse, and whose belief might just make their delusion real?

Edit: I'm making the Collector too overpowers, it's getting bad you guys. Future chapters are becoming bad guys I'm sorry 🙏🙏🙏
