Take this as a slight apology for the post-SL angst. Featuring Katherine, Lizzie, and Shelby. Can be a ship if you squint.

Katherine was visiting the End for the first time in a while. She didn’t visit often, as her body had become near dependent on the sunlight of the Overworld. 

However, she hadn’t heard much from Lizzie recently, and had started to become worried. No death message had entered the chat, but Katherine couldn’t control her paranoia. Especially after passing multiple rotting pumpkins.

After walking through a portal, and across a few bridges, she finally found Lizzie. Said Floran was stumbling along, and looked like she was going to faint at any moment. She wasn’t wearing a fresh pumpkin either.

“Lizzie?”

Lizzie stopped, but otherwise didn’t respond. 

Katherine tried again, “Lizzie?”

This time, Lizzie turned around. She had dark eye bags, and it was almost as if she was staring right through Katherine. 

“Kath…rine? What’re you…doing here?” Her words were slightly slurred. 

Katherine stepped closer, leaving just a few inches between her and Lizzie. Just in case she actuallyfainted. “I was looking for you. No one’s seen you in a while, was starting to get worried.”

Katherine decided not to mention that it was her who worried the most, or the fact that she had rubbed her fear and paranoia off on Shelby, who was currently sitting and waiting at Spawn. 

“‘M fine. Don’t…need to worry. Not about…me.”

“I think I’m gonna worry anyway, Lizzie. You need sleep.”

Lizzie didn’t respond immediately, but she did lean forward. Nearly laying against Katherine. “Can’t sleep…here. Too dangerous.”

“How about we go to the Overworld then? You can sleep at my house.”

Lizzie’s response this time, was to completely lean against Katherine. Said Floran picked her up, and headed to the portal out of here. 

Whilst Katherine spawned in her own bed, she didn’t have Lizzie with her. This was resolved a few minutes later, when Shelby showed up, carrying the End Floran with the help of shadows.

“Thanks Shelby.” 

“Not a problem! Though, would I be able to stay for a bit. The sun’s about to come again.”

“Be my guest.”

Shelby ended up cuddling Lizzie. Which did lead Katherine to discover that the Shadow-walker could purr. After a little while, Kathrine laid down with the two.

A person's favorite color, favorite animal, and favorite flavor of ice cream can say a lot about them when considering the answers as a whole. Some prime examples I've heard are:

~ Silver, Artic Wolf, and Mint Chocolate Chip.

~ Pink/Yellow, Putu Bird, and Cotton Candy.

~ Light Brown, Tree Kangaroo, and Rum Raisin.

~ Green, Pig, and Cookie Dough.

Mine are:

~ Burgundy, Fox, and Moose Tracks.

Tag some friends and get a sense of who they are! :)

Scar being surrounded by love after SL is over. They’re stuck indefinitely in Limbo, unsure why. Normally, the winner shows up, and everyone wakes up home. Not this time. A snow storm comes in, and Grian makes a joke of ‘formally inviting’ everyone to a fortified community house to wait it out together. It’s big with accommodations for everyone. Everyone shows up bringing blankets and food. Scar gets extra love in all of this. Everyone’s safe, there, and happy. Except for one person. A pink-haired woman who’s still sitting in her house. Who’s been keeping to herself so much she didn’t hear talk of the storm. Whose house is in the middle of the woods. Who didn’t get an invite. Who’s curled up in thin, tattered blankets, shivering by a dying fire. A pink-haired lady who’s blocked in by snow and fallen trees. Lizzie, who just wants to see her friends again. Lizzie, who wants to joke around with Grian. Lizzie, who wants to gossip with BigB and Pearl. Lizzie, who wants to talk shit with Cleo. Lizzie, who wants to talk redstone with Mumbo. Lizzie, who wants to talk builds with Joel. Who wants to eat Jimmy and Tango’s cooking that warms your bones. Who wants to curl up around Gem, and the Scott’s as they talk music. Who wants to wrap up in one of Bdubs many fluffy blankets as Etho denies anything Joel related. Who wants to hear Skizz giving praises. Who wants to hear Martyn and Ren’s theatrics. Lizzie, who wants everything Scar has right now. But she’s stuck in her house, alone, curled up by a dying fire.

Yknow, Cleo strikes me as the type to buy herself🪷, but she'd love it if someone else bought her flowers

fake title: how long you gonna wait, for those azaleas to burn? (shadowrot with a hint of ✨angst✨)

----

"Cleo, wait!"

Cleo turned their head towards the pink-haired fairy that raced towards them frantically. She scowled a bit at the sight. What right did Lizzie have, approaching her?

"Cleo... Please, you don't have to go."

"I already burned down your beloved fort, Lizzie," Cleo spat. "I don't want to overstay my welcome."

Lizzie frowned a bit. She fidgeted with her hands, which were placed behind her back. Part of Cleo thought that the fairy was going to stab them. "We just barely started getting close."

"Yeah, well... I would have liked to get closer to you, Lizzie. But I guess we can't have that."

Lizzie averted her gaze. Wordlessly, she brought her hands out from behind her back and held out a bouquet of azaleas. Cleo stared at the fairy in confusion, balling her hands into fists. They were torn between cherishing the flowers or throwing them into the inferno that engulfed the fairy fort.

"At least... I want you to have these. As a memento, of what we could have had."

Cleo's gaze softened a bit, but she didn't let her guard down. Her heart twisted at Lizzie's kindness. She was still willing to forgive the zombie, and maybe even run away with them. It was beautiful and heart-wretching and Cleo wished things could have ended better.

Thinking about alternate timelines.

What if Lizzie let Cleo live with her, just not in an ugly addition to her house, and Cleo never based with Etho? Cleo letting Lizzie burn her old build with encouraging eyes. Now, they're even.

What if Lizzie followed Pearl out of gratitude, and after finding that Pearl and Joel were going to be on the same team, decided to become the fifth member of the Mounders? Either stubbornly making her mound as pretty as possible, or joining Pearl, Bdubs and Joel in their seeming rot of building skills.

What if Lizzie, realizing she had no one besides her husband, travelled to the other side of the map to beg Gem to let her join her alliance. "Pumpkin sisters?" she'd invoke. They'd change their name to accommodate the new girl, and Lizzie would be in an aesthetic environment again... but this time, with no threat of lava being poured down on them. This time, they're safe.

What if Lizzie still died first, but this time someone joined Joel in their mourning. What if they had a funeral for her, just like they had for Jimmy. What if they had a memorial, just like Martyn keeping his allies' bones to honour their efforts.

What if Lizzie was given the recognition she deserves... from the fandom?
