Summary
Back then, the Watchers were seen as benevolent deities. Blessing the people with life and joy.
But that was five years ago.
Suddenly, the Watchers had turned. They weren’t as benevolent as they were before. Their blessings turned into curses as the world rotted into destruction and despair.
Grian, currently suffering from a strange case of amnesia, wakes up in the midst of this destroyed world. With a vague note and an eccentric man named Scar, Grian traverses across the land in order to find a way to completely restore his own memory.
Martyn and his two companions, Pearl and Scott, search for freedom. For a place that isn’t the desolate land they are trapped in. The only thing blocking their path is a field of dangerous traps, and their unwillingness to trust each other.
The two groups meet, and whilst finding the answers to many of their questions, they discover that their fates may be more intertwined than they could have ever imagined.
———————————
Aka: If I had a nickel for every apocalypse AU I’ve written where one of the characters has amnesia, I’d have two. Which isn’t a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

It’s been two years since Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps broke the Savage Predator conspiracy. Now a brilliant and effective team, they’re only a few steps away from making the detective bureau—and growing closer with every passing day.
But even as their relationship deepens, an immensely powerful and shadowy figure is at work behind the scenes, determined upon a hidden agenda...and equally determined to drive the fox and bunny apart at all costs.
Now, with a gang war threatening to set Zootopia ablaze, Nick and Judy find themselves besieged at every turn...and being driven inexorably towards a heartbreaking choice.

Summary
“You want to talk to him?” Martyn asks, knowing Scar will nod before he even really sees it. Martyn gently takes the tub of dishes from Scar, holding it by the handles, and nods towards Grian, who’s still staring into a flickering candle. Like he’s mesmerized by it. “Don’t come on too strong.”
He watches Scar make his way across the bar, floating as if pulled forward by an invisible tether. He watches him swerve, just slightly, to snatch a wooden flower from a nearby table’s centerpiece. He watches Scar place a hand on Grian’s table, drawing his eyes upwards, and hold the flower out. A lilac in shape, but not in color.
Grian looks up at him with this crooked, vaguely disgruntled glare. “Hello?”
"Come home with me."
Or
Scar falls for Grian, who falls in spite of himself.

Summary
The day after Scar breaks up with Grian, the dead come back to life. Knowing that venturing out alone is a death sentence, the sudden onset of the apocalypse forces them to stick together despite the tensions between them. In the wreckage of the world, they're forced to survive side-by-side, coming to terms with the fact that—try as they might—there's no one they trust more than each other.
“Go!” Grian shouts as the monster charges, putting his whole force into the blow.
Scar watches, frozen stiff as Grian fights until blood and gore and viscera mark the creature up like a Pollock painting.
“What are you waiting for?!” Grian snaps when he finally notices that Scar is still standing there. He grips his weapon tight and attacks a final time, slamming the zombie down—good and dead—and standing panting over top of it, strained but victorious. He starts rushing from the scene, calling back for Scar over his shoulder. “Run!”
And in a way that’s as familiar to him as breathing, Scar chases after him.

Summary
Grian opened his slowly, careful not to rip the unusually fancy envelope much. Inside the envelope sat a card, took it out and placed the envelope on the counter as he read what was on it.
‘Joel and Lizzie’s Wedding
Thursday, June 6th, 2024
Dress code: Pastel dresses and darker suits.
All guests are allowed to bring their significant other as a plus one.’
-
“I’m really sorry, love.”
Scar rarely called him any endearing nicknames or anything on call, he felt it was more meaningful if he could look Grian in the eyes and tell him he loves him or anything. The name just made his heart break more.
“It’s fine. I’ll talk to you later, Scar.” Grian’s finger clicked on the call button faster than Scar could react.
----
or; long distance relationships suck and Grian knows this. disappointment is bound to happen when your boyfriend's health is unpredictable and lives thousands and thousands of miles away in the U.S.
this isn't going to be any different, is it?

Summary
Hermit’s Hollow was a quiet town where you learned to ignore whisperings of nonsense and the dull, persistent feeling of being watched before you learned to ride a bike. To call it pedestrian would be a great disservice to all the terrible oddities occupying it— folks and legends alike.
Not that Grian believed any of them, of course.
Or; There's something wrong in Hermit's Hollow. There's something wrong with Grian. Neither of these are a surprise to him.

Summary
Somehow, in the chaos that is the apocalypse— former human beings rising from the dead and whatnot— Scar has managed to find his way into the Compound, a makeshift gated community of survivors from all around the world, led by a man they call Grian. By some grace of God (or, more accurately, his own silver tongue) Scar has quickly climbed his way up the ranks, and has found himself in the position of their leader’s right hand man.
The unfortunate thing, though, is that Scar’s pretty sure he doesn’t deserve it. Because Scar is still himself— clumsy, forgetful, reckless— but for some reason, Grian hasn’t sent him away yet, hasn’t replaced him with someone better, and a nagging voice in the back of Scar’s mind has one question: why?
Or: Scar gets injured, Grian fixes him up, and they finally talk about their feelings.

Summary
Scar let out a heavy sigh, starting to push away from his desk before pausing for a moment, shaking his head, then leaning forward again, his quill continuing to glide along the parchment. He wasn’t ready yet, surely whoever had come to collect him could wait a few minutes longer. Or a few hours. Or a few years, actually.
It wasn’t as if he didn’t want to go on this trip. He knew just how important it was, and how privileged he was that he got to go on it, but-
Well, it wasn’t quite what he’d been hoping for. For a powerful mage such as himself (or, well - future powerful mage, that is) this was perhaps the most important journey he’d make in his lifetime. His pilgrimage to the Crystal Fountain, the source of magic itself, the very journey he’d spent his entire life working towards. He should be excited. He was excited.
At least, he had been, until he found out that he wasn’t to make the journey alone.
Or, in which the vex prince sets out on a magical journey of a lifetime, and an unassuming avian knight is dragged along for the ride.
(Or, in which strangers find love in the unlikeliest of places.)Series
