Cloneborne: Mahou Legacy Kuron Uchuu Story! by Shadow_Crystal_Mage
Fandoms: Original Work
28 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
Once upon a time, on a certain dark planet called Surcease live the Kaedekin.
Clones of a single magical girl, the Kaedekin have spent the last several hundred years building up from a single crashed ship and three thousand survivors into a planet-spanning civilization. It's been difficult. The life native to the planet is inedible, the heavy metal content of everything makes everything very complicated, the perpetual darkness blocking out the visible light of the nearby star makes everything very complicated, and the random kaiju created by the mutagenic void energies coming from certain spots on the planet make everything very... you get the idea.
Oh, and every year the chance that they'll finally make first contact with one of the many space-faring polities in that galaxy that they've been listening to increases.
Mahou Legacy Kuronu Uchuu Story is about to begin…!

Summary
(Overall spoilers for Memories in Orbit)
Of all the ways to recover a missing exoplanet, Mio may well have stumbled across the most dramatic and least productive way to do it. And it's just like a habitable zone planet to already have inhabitants.
Pharloom is a hostile and alien place, but maybe, somewhere in its depths, there's an answer. A way to find a scrap of hope for the crumbling world she calls home.

Summary
It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.
And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.
Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?

Summary
Part 4 of *Star Trek: Expedition Andromeda* carries the stranded Federation expedition into a darker and more complicated phase of its journey. As Voyager, Asteria, and Vanguard uncover signs that the Borg threat in Andromeda is older, stranger, and more far-reaching than they first understood, the crews must also navigate fragile diplomacy between wounded civilizations, uneasy allies, and powers that have survived by hiding from one another for generations.
While Janeway and Seven confront the growing shape of the enemy ahead, Vanguard’s search for a possible new ally becomes a test of patience, command, and moral clarity far from the rest of the fleet. Across the season, exploration gives way to consequence, and Starfleet’s ideals are tested not by a single battle, but by the harder question of what trust, mercy, and resistance mean in a galaxy where survival has taught every civilization a different lesson.

Summary
And there amongst the stars
The span of the universe I see
Buried underneath
I feel the cold touch of promise
And the vastness of the void(sort of a fun experiment with halo's lore and universe. Very non canon. Very ooc. Somewhat of a throwaway thing for me.)

Summary
When Jazz crash-lands on Earth, he expects a damaged ship, bad odds, and a long repair job far from Autobot help.
He does not expect Tony Stark.
Tony is small, organic, reckless, brilliant, and entirely too interested in alien engineering. He also brings coffee Jazz cannot drink, music Jazz cannot ignore, and enough stubborn genius to help repair a Cybertronian ship on the side of a mountain.
Jazz only needs to stay on Earth long enough to get home.
Three days should not be enough to leave a mark.
They do anyway.

Summary
"It's unusual for you to actually want to go on a mission into space. What's changed?" The mic pushed up closer to his mouth while the crowd eagerly waited for a heartfelt answer.
"Because I want to! Hell, I'm gonna be the first person to step foot on that damn planet!" He exclaimed out, startling those around him.
The reporter instinctively, took a step back.
"There has to be some reason... anything at all? Not even out of curiosity?" she asked cautiously.
Katsuki wasn't about to tell them the truth-that he'd become obsessed with the bright star burning in the night sky.
And he definitely wasn't going to tell them how the signal from that distant planet somehow felt meant for him.

Summary
We can turn lead to gold and fly on sticks, but we don't have a story of why we should bother.
Wizarding Britain, 2007. The Statute is in freefall. The ICW loses more members every day. The British Ministry is quaking. Across the Atlantic, the 'Free League of Merlin' has issued a terrifying choice: the right to know you’ve been wronged. A thousand thousand visions grow for the magical world's future.
Three hundred years ago, the Statute began. To hide wizards from Muggles. It rebirthed wizarding life into a monoculture known as Secrecy. And as that cloak falls away, witches and wizards of Earth are beginning to ask, "Who are we without it?"
And no one has the same answer.
