    Summary

    A Whumptober work with One-Shot's about the Voices from Slay The Princess. Not that many people are exploring the wide range of possibilities that come from these characters, and so I came up with backstories for each of them with the help of the prompts from this year, along with other scenarios for after the finale when The Long Quiet and The Shifting Mound leave together, the voices deciding to not interfere.

    It's never specified, but I headcannon that the Voices are still inside TLQ's mind, just kept away from the outside world and out of contact with their host.

    Summary

    One thing always remains the same through countless timelines and transformations -- the Long Quiet and the Shifting Mound love each other, no matter what.

    That affection can persist even in the Voices and Perspectives that make up their smallest pieces, as many stories have shown us; we've seen the Voice of the Smitten paired up with the Damsel. The Voice of the Cold with the Spectre. The Voice of the Cheated with the Razor. The Voice of the Paranoid with the Nightmare. We've even seen the Voice of the Hero shack up with the so-called "base Princess."

    Booooring.

    This collection is for stories featuring new and different Voice/Perspective couplings, particularly ones that have been unfairly glossed over.

    Suggestions, requests, and all other kinds of (non-hateful) comments are welcome! I can't promise to fulfill every request, but you're all invited to make them anyway.

    Summary

    Cold, who maintains that it is not his fault that masturbation does not come easily to him, creates a predicament out of his own impatience, ego, sex drive, and the effects of a little booze.

    Summary

    The windows are barricaded and so is his mind. The only downside is he's locking the danger inside.

    -----------

    The jumpy one isn't fond of touch. Or tight spaces. Or germs. Or people (not excluding his roommate). In fact, his coup of a condo does no numbers, his life a series of disembodied bodies leeching in every insulation. So come forth an outbreak, a dawning takes everything for granted as the indoor population grows and survival thinning.

    Summary

    You are a Coward. You have always been one. In your attempts to deal, in one way or another, with the Shifting Mound... You were never successful.
    Not because you lack power. Not because she bested you. You just can't accept the finality of your choice. You keep letting her stab you whenever you see the core.
    But what if... even all this looping had an end? What if you remembered everything you've been through. But not just you. No, your dear companion, the voice of the Hero, remembers as well.

     

     

    And he hates you for all the pain you've caused him.

    Summary

    I had the random idea of "What if crossover between Undertale & Slay the Princess" so here it is.

    He wasn't quite sure why the notion of being on a path in the woods stuck out to him, but it did. Like a lingering echo that he couldn't shake off.

    [Proceed down the path]

    After brushing himself off, and taking a few tentative steps towards the ancient looking pillars, the measly sunlight was quickly gone, though it wasn't dark exactly either. The light was hard to describe. He took a few steps into the area still illuminated only for another one of those golden flowers to appear. Except, it very much had a face and then it started speaking.

    “Howdy! I'm Flowey, Flowey the flower!” It spoke with an overdramatically cheery voice.

    Summary

    Priscilla Corbeau didn't love her husband, but she certainly didn't want him dead. And yet, when she returns from vacation, that's what she gets---along with the information that everything she knew about him was a lie.

    Years ago, he stole a fortune from the British government, and in doing so, made a number of enemies---all of whom are now after Priscilla. With the help of a charming stranger named Skips, she's got to track down that fortune before she winds up dead... except, it's not too clear whether or not Skips is all that trustworthy.

    And considering she's getting dangerously close to falling for him, that's a problem.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu and Tomioka Giyuu have been dropped into the Slay the Princess universe. At first, they're confused and target the protagonist of the universe, assuming that he was attacking a woman already locked away in the basement, but as time goes on and loops repeat, they realize that the princess is not what she seems

    The Long Quiet and the voices in his head are confused on why slaying the princess is more complicated than the narrator lets on.

    Summary

    The Wild and the Apotheosis are two of the strongest vessels, they can break the construct. When the Shifting Mound is a bit late on retrieving her gift of a Tender Heart, the Nightmare grows to receive this strength, too.

    But all she knows is how to hurt…

    And so she does. She breaks the Long Quiet. Not mentally, or spiritually, or even just his will. She breaks him in a terrible, pragmatic way.

    Like the Sleeping Mound, they can hope to rebuild him from the Paranoid voice that survives. Together, the Paranoid and the Nightmare must bring Voices to the Long Quiet, and Vessels to the Shifting Mound.

    Hilarity ensues.

    Summary

    Old Apple is way past its haydays of travelers coming and going to trade with the local farmers. Strangers coming is now a rarity to the small town, and so the group of very different and colorful strangers make something of a ruckus. (And what was that about a thieving corpse roaming around?)

    OR:

    What happens when four birds, a demon horse rider, a cat witch, and a girl who had been buried underground for years all find themselves in the same small town?

    Summary

    Time seems to slow down as the crowd parts and Skeptic could hear himself breathing, each inhale sharp and each exhale poignant. His heart threatens to beat out of his chest and he thinks his spirit is both grounded in its body and soaring as he spots that familiar figure.

    ---

    Your Happy Ending.

    Summary

    Immortality cursed him. He can't remember when, nor how, but his eternal life is anchored by a contract etched in the skin of his back. Forever a pleasure performer for aspirations, housed by a fellow (supposedly) celestial conscience, his heart fails to wrap around fantasy and reality.

     

    He never foresaw the arrival of unusual phantoms welcoming a massive change to his existence. It's up to him whether he deems it positive.

    (Translation: Hero gets screwed [literaly] and becomes a dedicated prostitute under a contract in the ghost world. Can this be considered Isekai idfk fam.)

    Summary

    Skeptic has come to enjoy shiny things. Rocks, pearls, glass… most of all, stars.

    Still, he seeks solitude in looking at them being reflected on the surface of a lake and he can’t admire the beauty.

    It's water. And water, he’s recently realized, terrifies him.

    Tomorrow the whole flock is planning to spend a day at this lake. He will not let them see such an irrational fear from him. He’s meant to be the logical one.

    He steps into the chill water and it feels like he’s dying but he’s determined not to back out until he understands his fear in one way or another.

    Aka- Skeptic goes off to a lake in the middle of the night to try and out logic his fear and the other grey brother (smitten) gets there right on time to keep him from actually just drowning. Hurt/comfort my beloved
