    A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    Certainly a more interesting mythos than the usual. EDIT: Also, yeah. An entire generation of people have grown up knowing about Atropos. "Do not fuck with her" has gone genetic.

    Another Way (Worm AU fanfic)

    They will absolutely get a memorial. It will be front and centre in the (rebuilt) lobby. Piggot will make sure of it. Their families will be getting enough from the bounties to never need for anything again. She'll make sure of that, too.
