Summary
A gamebreaking glitch tore the game session to shreds, right before they reached the end. Dirk Strider was already dead at the time. Temporarily. Which left him to revive in the aftermath. As the Prince of Heart, he doesn't have much experience putting souls back together, only breaking them, but at this point he seems to be the only one who even knows shit is broken.
He's the last person who'd trust himself with this. Not when he's out of time, out of place, and over his head being responsible for a little brother, a life, and a body his conveniently dead asshole of a splinterself already, thoroughly fucked up.
AKA: A game crash creates an unholy mashup of who the hell knows how many sburb sessions, and Dirk-as-Bro attempts to figure out wtf happened and how to fix shit for the brother who fears him, and the friends who don’t remember him. Because that’s what he does. But no Dirk has ever excelled when truly alone. Good thing he isn’t, he just needs to learn how to accept the help.

Summary
Game Over wasn't an end.
It was a beginning.
Change one thing, and a new pattern emerges.
This drive is a little too fucked up for a simple Defrag to work.
AKA: Dragged forcibly from the void of non-existence, Dirk Strider is shoved into a life he doesn't want. A responsibility he hates. And a second chance he does not believe he deserves. Especially when that second chance comes with baggage he can't afford to just up and drop.
Three people lived in that apartment before. Three people have to live in it now. Someone has to be the adult here and he sure as shit is lacking in qualifications.

Summary
Artworks, B-sides, cut content, small scenes that didn't make it into the actual fic but still help flesh out the many relationships found in Divide by Zero and Defragmentation.
Spoilers within, but that should be expected.
