An Outsiders SMP fanfiction. Written, edited, and published by GhostFox__ Please do not send hate to me or any of the creators featured here. It is fiction, not real life. And this is simply an alternate universe (AU) version of the reality. Outsiders SMP ended several months ago, but there is a possibility that it will start a second season some time in 2023. In preparation for this, I'm writing a fanfic about what it could be like. Warnings are at the beginning of each chapter. There will be NO ships here at all. The book will include fluff, angst, hurt/comfort, violence, and more. Outsiders SMP is based off of the trilogy Maze Runner. Go watch those movies or read those books if you haven't already before watching the Outsiders SMP series or reading this book as there will be references and purposeful similarities between the two as well as possible hints for the experienced. Enjoy! <3 ~Alex

Outsiders SMP Fanfiction What if Apo found out and came to terms with who Owen was before Owen realized it? What if that changes Apo's behavior? What if Apo got the drop on Owen because he had information Owen didn't remember? TW: fantasy racism (canon), non-descriptive violence, off-screen suicidal thoughts This fic is a slow burn Owen Redemption arc, not an Owen Apologist arc. c!Owen's opinions and actions are wrong. I wrote this because c!Apo deserves better, and I will move heaven and hell to make sure he sees his friend redeemed. No obvious pairings, no dating, no pda. Rating might change for violence later, idk. Fic is finished. Cover is my art on a background painted by Yami. Research on Owen's change of opinion is based on the book How Minds Change by David McRaney. High-key recommend listening to the audiobook, as it's the first ray of hope I've seen for a future that's actually going to get better.
