So I don’t know if you remember, but a while back I decided I was going to do a series of connected fanfics in parallel to the release of G2, trying to put my own spin on the universe with each new wave. Well, I finally got around to finishing the next one, and I present for your reading pleasure The Failure’s Claim!

Before you click that link, please note that this story was made to tie together the previous two, so isn’t really a good starting point. The Time of the Mask Makers and In Our Bones aren’t super long, and a lot of what’s different in this series gets slowly introduced there rather than throwing it all at you in Claim.

Also, I feel like the whole series at this point is still a little weird due to how it came about and how I haven’t really gotten that far into it. Mask Makers was done as a standalone flashback piece that could potentially mesh with canon (before certain revelations proved it very non-canon), and Bones is another flashback piece, but I decided to depart further from canon, and I must stress that it was written before the name “Kulta” was released. As for the actual 2015 story, my canon sticks to it up to a point, and that point is (about) where Claim begins, so I’m nervous to see how that works out.

Since I now have a better idea of what I want to do with this series, the 2016 stories should be more linear and easier to follow, albeit replacing more official canon. But hey, what do you expect from fanfiction? I’ll soon make a blog post compiling all relevant links for this series that will be updated as time goes on, and if I pull my blog back together I’ll put an easy to find link to it somewhere.

I hope you enjoy the story!
