Crimson Star is a gamer colt. Always has been, always will be. Why, you ask? Take a look at his dad, Level Dasher. He works for Big Macrosoft as a game tester. Who do you think gave Crimson his gaming prowess? That's what happens when a gamer raises a gamer.

A "day-in-the-life" one-shot prequel to Through Crimson Eyes inspired by the cover art, provided by Keetasari.

Self-edited, so if you find any mistakes, do let me know. Thanks, and enjoy!

The official prequel in the sequence of The Crimson-Verse.

Crimson Star has spent more time in a hospital than he has living life. Starting from an early age, a necessary operation has shaped his whole life thus far. When he gets sick again, he's pretty sure he knows what he's in for.

Told from the perspective of my OC's son, this story is inspired by my own life experiences, and is dedicated to anyone who has spent an extended period of time immersed in the medical world, especially from childhood.

Rated Teen for slightly older themes, minor graphic descriptions, and occasional use of ponified profanity.

This is the main story in the sequence of the Crimson-verse. If you liked this one, check out the rest!

Crimson Star is wandering through the Everfree Forest with his friends one day when they accidentally get lost. In the process of finding their way home, they unintentionally get separated. While his friends' locations remain a mystery, Crimson finds himself at the hooves of a new friend who is willing to help. What does this new friend have to share?

A thank-you story for my friend, Ayemel, who drew me the awesome picture that I used for the cover, this is also a side story for Through Crimson Eyes, taking place sometime between the end of Act I and the Entr'acte (If you intend to read TCE, I highly suggest reading that first. There are BIG spoilers here. Wait until you've finished Act I, at the very least).

Edited by Shahrazad, with input from Ayemel to properly portray her character (as well as cover art credit, obviously).

An official side story in the The Crimson-Verse that takes place during the beginning of the Entr'acte in Through Crimson Eyes, the main story.

Who can tell of her grandpa quite like her grandmother.

A tale of the past, or for us, what may be
The future of the Zebra in the Everfree.
