This was written for threesentenceficathon's 2026 ficathon, responding to the prompt any, any, I'll penetrate your soul / I'll bleed into your dreams.

Title: Bleeding Into You
Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters/Pairing: Eito/Takumi, focusing a little more on Eito
Rating: R (murder, toxic yaoi elements, uncomfortable subtext, lots of vengeful spite on Eito's part)
Summary: As he's killed, Eito embeds himself into Takumi. Set at the beginning of the Multiple Eitos route.

Needless to say, this contains spoilers for the Multiple Eitos route and by extension the first playthrough.

Title: Killing As Asked
Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters/Pairing: Darumi/Hiruko
Rating: PG-13 (focus on death and consensual murder, implied guilt, mention of arousal from killing)
Summary: Darumi has just done what Hiruko asked of her. Set during the Killing Game route.

Needless to say, this contains spoilers for the Killing Game route.

Title: Why's He Always Here?
Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters/Pairing: Nozomi, Takumi, Eito; strong indications of Eito/Takumi
Rating: G (nothing objectionable)
Summary: Nozomi can't help noticing that a certain someone keeps joining expeditions beyond the Academy grounds recently, and asks Takumi about it.

This is meant to be ambiguously set in either the late part of Second Scenario or the Rebellion route, so to be on the safe side, there's a spoiler for those routes and by extension a vague spoiler for the first playthrough.

Title: And The Gates Close for Good
Fandom: Revolutionary Girl Utena
Characters/Pairings: Touga, Utena, Akio, Anthy, mentions of Saionji and Nanami; onesided Touga/Utena, some much more mutual Anthy/Utena
Rating: R (references to underage rape and grooming, Akio being his own warning, some lingering sexism on Touga's part even when he's trying to do better)
Summary: The final duel before the one called Revolution is also Touga's last chance to save Utena from the trap he knows Ends of the World has set for her. Set in episode 36.

Title: Inherited Lives in the Last Hour
Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters/Pairing: Takumi as the main focus, Tsubasa, Shouma, Hiruko, Takemaru, Ima, Moko, Yugamu, Gaku, Eito, Kako, mentions of Shion and Nozomi; some onesided(?) Eito/Takumi, though it's a relatively small part of the story
Rating: PG-13 (heavy focus on death, angst, grief, blood and violence, route-typical war themes)
Summary: Takumi knows exactly what's at stake in the final battle to save Futurum, but it doesn't make it hurt any less when his comrades fall one by one and he's forced to take their strength as his own. Set at the end of Second Scenario.

Needless to say, this contains major spoilers for Second Scenario and by extension the first playthrough. The order of the deaths here is based on my own gameplay experience.

Title: A Tragic Wish for Warmth
Fandom: Pokémon
Characters: random wild Greavard, unnamed original trainer; written in second person from the Greavard's perspective
Rating: PG (tragedy, bittersweetness, accidental harm, uncertain fate for the trainer)
Summary: All Greavard has ever wished for, like so many of its kind, is the warmth of human companionship. Sadly, its first attempt at befriending a human doesn't go as well as it's been hoping.

Title: A Displaced Knight
Fandom: Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
Characters: Ashe, female Shez, mentions of Lonato
Rating: PG (nothing too objectionable, but has themes of loneliness and some interpersonal conflict)
Summary: Shortly following his surrender to the Empire, Ashe feels utterly alone even in the middle of an army. Set just after chapter 5's main battle on the Scarlet Blaze route.

Partly inspired by my having made the wrong choice when speaking with Ashe at camp for the first time on this route.

Title: Doomed Regardless
Fandom: Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Characters: Mami, with several mentions of Kyubey
Rating: PG-13 (mention of a car accident and parental death, references to death and despair; basically all the standard MadoMagi warnings)
Summary: Mami's only two choices before becoming a Magical Girl had been to either make a wish or die. In reality, she never had any choice in her ultimate fate.

Title: Preferred Outcome and Most Likely Outcome

Summary: Nagito has a preferred outcome for tonight's murder in the middle of the party, but thanks to his luck, it's not the one that comes to pass. Set during chapter 1.

Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters/Pairing: Eito, Takumi, mentions of the rest of the SDU and Sirei; elements of complicated Eito/Takumi
Rating: PG-13 (strong references to torturous attempted brainwashing and attempted infliction of personality death, themes of ableism, a lot of bitterness and resentment on Eito's part)
Summary: Just after his conversation with Takumi under the fireworks, Eito reflects on how he really feels about it all. Set during the Coming-of-Age route.

Needless to say, this contains spoilers for the Coming-of-Age route and by extension the first playthrough.
