Fifteen words, strung together to form one sentence. Thrown together in some particular order, said without any real thought or care. Fifteen words Zoey will come to regret. Or will she? When she looks back on this moment later—much later, she's still trying to reconcile it all—she'll pinpoint those words as the moment everything fell apart.

Zoey accidentally makes a promise to Derpy, a spiritual entity, and finds herself stuck in a time-loop until she gets Rumi and Mira under the mistletoe and gets it right.

I still have time! It's still Christmas Eve in good ol' Wyoming town!

Posting on Christmas Eve exclusively for the bit.

Huge, huge thanks to my wife @accidentallyonpurposehere who sat on the couch with me for literal HOURS while I bitched and moaned and struggled. The fic probably would not have gotten finished otherwise, so if you enjoy it, you should absolutely thank her. She is the (un)official co-author of this fic (let me make it official, dammit!)

Next, massive thanks to @princington for the gorgeous art for this fic and for being an amazing person in general. Bouncing random bits and thoughts to them and @hotsaucevitamins helped bring this fic to life. It was a massive labor of love and I gift it to you both.

Merry Christmas, I hope you enjoy this fic, and stay tuned for more Polytrix in the future!

✌️ ❤️ & Cheers!

chapter 9/Loop 37: died on the altar waiting for the proof

Chapters: 9/? Fandom: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas Rating: Explicit Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Feyre Archeron/Rhysand Characters: Feyre Archeron, Rhysand (A Court of Thorns and Roses), Tamlin (A Court of Thorns and Roses), Amarantha (A Court of Thorns and Roses) Additional Tags: Temporary Character Death, Under the Mountain - Freeform, Time Loop, Time Travel, Angst, Romance, Smut, Implied/Referenced Rape/Non-con, Blood and Violence Summary:

Every day, Rhysand wakes up next to Amarantha in her bed Under the Mountain. A prisoner, a weapon, a High Lord on a leash. He's been down there so long, it's starting to feel like time doesn't matter.

Until one day, it doesn't.

Feyre's death sends Rhysand back in time, waking up on the same day - over and over. Now, Rhysand must discover how to break the time loop, save his mate, and keep his sanity intact.

A "round robin" style fanfiction with different authors. This work is meant to be read from beginning to end, but each chapter is written by a different author with their own spin on the time loop prompt.

I am THRILLED to post this at last, it's been so much fun to write, and I adore being a part of this group of insanely talented writers and creators @feysand-hivemind. My eternal thanks to @popjunkie42 for all her help, and to @rosanna-writer for her betaing help!

Some ideas for my darry time-loop fic !!

(it's cut off in case you'd wanna read it without knowing anything)

Spoilers for the fic below the cut

-It's a two day loop. 😃 The first day is when Ponyboy hangs out with Dallas and Johnny, and the second day is well, the second day after that.

-Darry almost feels the urge to slap him just one time loop in, (He tried to stop Pony from going to hangout all together but he sneaks out anyways)

-There is no moral to be earned from this, it just happens.

-First few days focus on stopping the jumping from happening, so he finds out as much information as possible

-Eventually, he realises all he needs to do is give a ride home (or something, haven't figured it out yet) and tries having some fun

-He starts using the two days to hang out with everyone, and try to get closer to them. This gives him a sense of control, knowing this much about everyone. Maybe a sign he's getting worse in the timeloop?

-Once, Steve and Johnny seperatedly mentioned their dad's and Darry just realises "why not" and goes to beat them up, Gets shot by Johnny's father. Wakes up in the next time loop day.

-The previous experience makes him experiment with death a couple times, but the only thing it does it just make him go to the morning again, so he finds it useless to do at some point. (he also considers how maybe there's different versions of the world, and how there might now universes where his brothers are now alone because he's dead)

-I'm not planning to give anyone else memories of this, maybe there'd be a few times where darry tells them what's happening but no one realises there's a timeloop going on

-There's A LOT else I can add in the timeloop story, and if anyone has ideas, I wouldn't mind listening!!!

-At some point he figures out a way for the day to be "perfect" and keeps repeating that day. He repeats it over and over, feeling a sense of calm that he can predict everything, stop anything bad from happening, in a way he praises himself for "stopping it singlehandedly"

-then time goes without him realising onw day.

and now he doesn't know what to do.

Imagine you’re in the “using-my-god-like-powers-of-precognition-to-prove-I’m-in-a-time-loop” stage of a time-loop and you stick out your arm to catch a tray of falling dishes but you fuck up the timing a little bit so it completely looks like you intentionally tripped that waitress and now Gary the truck driver’s bacon and eggs (side of hash browns, go easy on the salt and a dash of vinegar on the eggs please) are all over your true love’s face so not only do you look crazy but also like you’re kind of an asshole and you’re embarrassed as fuck because even in a time-loop there’s a first time for everything but you’re not that worried because nobody else is going to remember it when the loop resets but then you wake up the next morning and the alt-rock radio host isn’t playing “Radioactive” by Imagine Dragons and it turns out half-elbowing that part-timer in the gut was the thing that broke the loop and now you have to go back to work where you know you’re going to run into the woman who rejected your heartfelt confession because messing up that tray-catch meant that no matter how much weirdly specific information you had about her personal life she still didn’t believe you were in a time-loop.

Don't Take the Money (21831 words) by HMSLusitania Chapters: 3/3 Fandom: 9-1-1 (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Evan "Buck" Buckley/Eddie Diaz (9-1-1 TV), Evan "Buck" Buckley & Bobby Nash Characters: Evan "Buck" Buckley, Eddie Diaz (9-1-1 TV), Bobby Nash, Howie "Chimney" Han, Henrietta "Hen" Wilson, Maddie Buckley, Athena Grant, Chase Mackey, Lena Bosko, Christopher Diaz (9-1-1 TV) Additional Tags: Post-lawsuit, Time Loop, Temporary Character Death, Canon-typical depictions of injuries, it's a groundhog day au, set entirely during Monsters, Getting Together, First Kiss, True Love's Kiss, an undue amount of irreverance, More warnings inside Series: Part 3 of Prompts and Fills Summary:

“You know, being stuck here isn’t actually the end of the world,” Chimney says, coming up to the table and picking up one of the smoke detectors. “It just feels like it, Buck. Trust me, I know.” “I’m pretty sure it might actually be the end of the world,” Buck says. “Considering this is the sixth time I’ve lived this day.” Chimney stares at him for a beat and then his eyebrows lift. “Wait, are you like – dude, are you in Groundhog Day?”

OR

The post-lawsuit time-loop AU literally no one asked for.

Notes: I got to the Halloween episode of season 3 in my rewatch, and I knew immediately I had to re-read this. It is a post-lawsuit fic, but it doesn’t baby Buck or villainize the 118 or vise-versa. It takes the stance that most level headed people in this fandom take, which is that everyone really just needed to talk to each other. And they do, talk to each other, that is. Eddie and Buck talk and get their heads out of their asses, and Bobby and Buck have a truly wonderful conversation that I wish they had in canon. Plus, it’s a time-loop fic, and, as I’ve said before, I LOVE time loop fics.

Oxventure trope:

Time loop:

The Oxventurers get stuck in a time loop which at first seems awesome, nothing they do matters! But then it's like nothing they do matters and it's terrible, they die at the end of every time loop, it's terrible. So they've got go figure out what's causing the time loop before they all end up dying and going insane. (Possibly Johnny, if done on stage and with a time limit, could say that the time loop WILL end after five loops, slowly counting down.)

It would give the Oxventurers ideas of how to solve the solution and they could make a LOT of Groundhog day referances. Plus it would let Johnny keep murdering the Oxventurers without it being perminent.

'And you die. The inferno of flames burns you like a crisp. And they you wake up, on the Joyful Damnation. The birds are singing and it seems like morning.' -Johnny at the beginning, leaving the Oxventurers shocked.

'Umm..doesn't this seem familiar to you guys?' -Dob

'Are we in a Groundhog day situation?' Corazón

'Ah yes! The ancient tale of the day of Groundhogs.' -Prudence
