    Summary

    Painted Alicia gets a brand new chance, allowing her to stop her father from massacring the Expedition on the Dark shores.
    The father and daughter discuss their plan and convince Verso to join them, gradually revealing the entire truth to the Expedition.

    Painted Renoir began to aid the Expedition, rather than slaughter them.

    ~~~~

    I believe that Painted Renoir and Painted Alicia have unlimited potential in the story. So here I am.

    Summary

    The Paintress is gone; the Curator left. In the aftermath of Lumiere’s battle, Maelle and Verso find a middle ground and promise to give each other closure without harming any more innocents : he will try living a mortal life and she will leave the Canvas.

    Maelle helps her late brother’s soul to fix the Fracture's damages and brings people back, giving this world a second chance. She spends her last painted days making the most of Verso’s presence and Gustave’s return, trying to bring them closer with few success. After her departure, both men struggle to settle back in the city and when Verso blurts out the idea of Gustave accompanying him to the Continent, the engineer doesn't take long to accept: after all, he missed a lot of things there, definitely needs a guide... and time away from Lumière.

    Summary

    If a world born from sorrow can still bring joy, does it deserve to die with the one keeping it alive?

    This story follows the aftermath of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s Maelle ending. Renoir’s crusade against the Canvas is over, but the conflict waiting beyond it is not.

    We follow Lyle Cendrier, a man who walks the fragile line between Writers and Painters. What begins as a temporary alliance with the Dessendre family slowly descends into something far more intimate as he uncovers the grief they buried beneath their name, the truths nobody within the family dares speak aloud, and the dying world they had already resigned themselves to losing.

    But the longer Lyle remains within Lumière, the harder it becomes to answer a question none of them can escape: if a false world can still give people something real, does its existence still count as a lie?

    Summary

    The Dessendre family has ruled over Paris' criminal underground for as long as Gustave can remember. Murder, theft, trafficking, there is no crime they haven't committed, yet their wealth and influence has allowed them to walk free for generations. For Gustave and his allies, taking down the family's matriarch, Aline Dessendre, is the only way to free Paris from villainy.

    Unfortunately for him, fighting the Paintress comes with many unexpected challenges, including foiling the plans of the elusive thief Visages, and getting into a fake relationship with Aline's only son, Verso.

    An Enemies to Lovers story in which Gustave is a vigilante with a stalking problem and the Dessendres are supervillains.

    Summary

    Putain de merde!
    He had fucked up...

    For weeks he had been planning this, had been carefully following the little group, waiting for Renoir to finally confront them and take down one or two of them, so Alic- Maelle... Maelle would see how important it was to fight the Paintress... so she wouldn't have any more attachments to this damn world.

    Verso had been up on the ledge, next to his sister. Had been waiting in the shadows for his father to kill this man... Gustave.
    And then he'd suddenly had found himself down there by the cliff parrying the blow, which was supposed to end Gustave's life.

    ---

    Verso stops his father from dealing the killing blow and with this his troubles only get started!

    Summary

    Life is a limbo where choices sometimes weigh so heavily that they end up drowning.
    Verso tried to turn everything off, to erase himself, to... disappear forever, yet even there someone chose for him and forced him to stay where he doesn't want to be: on this earth.
    His parents won't leave him alone for even a second, for fear he'll try to end it all again. And it's a control that's killing him day by day, shattering him into a thousand pieces.

    Then, between the cracks of that fracture, Gustave arrives, and inside that house, time begins to flow again.
    And sometimes, all it takes is someone to break the imposed patterns, to start feeling something again.

    Summary

    La vita è un limbo dove le scelte, a volte, hanno un peso così forte che si finisce per affogare.
    Verso ci ha provato a spegnere tutto, a cancellarsi, a... sparire per sempre, eppure anche lì qualcuno ha scelto per lui e lo ha costretto a rimanere dove non vuole stare: su questa terra.
    I suoi genitori non lo lasciano solo nemmeno un secondo, per paura che provi di nuovo a farla finita. Ed è un controllo che lo spegne giorno per giorno, e che lo sta frantumando in mille pezzi.

    Poi, tra le crepe di quella frattura, arriva Gustave, e dentro quella casa il tempo ha ricominciato a scorrere.
    E a volte basta qualcuno che rompa gli schemi imposti, per ricominciare a sentire qualcosa.

    Summary

    The Paintress is erasing people of Lumière, expeditions are being sent to defeat her - so she may paint death no more...

    But in this universe something is different.

    Lune has a twin sister. Chimère was born possessing a mysterious ability that allows her to bend matter like a puppeteer pulls on the strings.

    No one knows where it came from.
    No one knows its limits.
    Why? Because the Paintress didn't want anyone to know what these powers meant.

    One year, not during the Gommage, the Paintress had awakened - no painting any number, no chaos unleashed. An event that horrified whole Lumière.
    And when that happened - Chimère was born into this world.
    That is also why her name means 'dream.'
    Because the Paintress not bringing death was a dream of all the people that are left.

    Now Expedition 33 approaches.

    And Chimère will take part in it.

    Because of that some things will change for the better... and some for the worse.
    And some will remain exacly as they are.

    Summary

    67 years ago, the civil war between the Painters and the Writers was ended by an explosion later known as the Fracture, altering the state of the Continent forever. Since then, the Dessandre family has ruled Lumiere and carefully curated a history that hails them as heroes and will stop at nothing to silence those who would oppose them.

    After decades of iron-fisted rule and a sharp rise in pro-Writer sentiment, the secret society known as The Expedition sends a group to the Continent. Like the many groups before them, Expedition 33 is oath-bound to uncover the truth that has been hidden from the citizens of Lumiere.

    When close to her entire team is slaughtered on day one, Lune must continue the mission and confront all of the painful reminders of a blissful past, and rebuild bridges torn down by missed opportunities and a fractured found family.

    Summary

    It had been one of those ideas thrown in for shits and giggles, just a random 2 AM thought that everyone should have forgotten about the next day. Because when you're a group of seven friends, no idea ever makes it out of the group chat successfully.

    Until now.

    Which is how they find themselves on a honest-to-God camping trip to the Côte d'Azur, ready for some sun, sea and fun.

    Summary

    He loved when Gustave was asleep because he got to study all the paint that constructed his face and all pigment that sculpted his muscles for what it really was. It was during such nights that Verso understood his emotions like no other time that they seemed like a force he could conquer because they were only subconscious responses of his blueprinted human mind to the piece of art labelled 'Gustave 'by a bloody, silver plate in this menagerie of grief and self-loathing. It was those nights he loved him.

    — Say, Verso, do you think I was worth saving?

    or; Verso isn't doing well, we know, so he walks out at night wanting to jump off a cliff, but Gustave's kinda battling his own demons too

    Summary

    When Verso decided to rescue Gustave on the cliffs, nothing could have prepared him for the revelations that an adventure with the engineer would bring. While his goal remained the same—to end his torment by destroying the canvas—Gustave's presence at his side would bring its share of surprises. Some amusing, some existential, and others extending beyond the confines of the canvas, where he would learn more about the death of the man who served as his model.
