On January 1st, 2010, the show known as Battle For Dream Island had begun. 20 contestants. 1 host. And a prize like none other. But all that had to come from somewhere, right? A group of rowdy objects don't just randomly show up in the middle of a grassy field. Hosts don't simply fall out of the sky. Not to mention the greatest mystery of all. The long-lost Yoyle City: a bustling metropolis turned ghost town for no apparent reason. Things like that can't just happen out of the blue. Because they don't. ----- Content Warnings: Blood, death, cringe. Original concept and characters by Jacknjellify on YouTube. Cover illustration by @cc.make_draw on Instagram.

Desperation has become the rule of thumb in the crumbling Inanimate Kingdom, where devastation of both external and internal conflict threaten to throw it into war. King MePhone's reassurances and grand parties aren't fooling anyone; the fog of unease is still overwhelming. With so much restraint around her, princess Marshmallow wants to break the rules and bring her kingdom to peace. When the ivory path laid before her isn't heading towards peace, though, perhaps it's time to blaze a new one. Perhaps that new path is paved with dreams, love, and fresh produce - the stuff of fairy tales. "Let's discover our era of peace... together." An Inanimate Insanity/Battle for Dream Island collaborative work by SkaterCheese and I based on the Medieval AU by wentikk and toonirl on Tumblr. Contains Marshple and an assortment of other ships, including Lightbrush, Suitloon, Bickel, etc. Best enjoyed by readers who can deal with adult themes. To keep things simple and easy while reading (or just to jumpstart your memory) there's an allegiance document that you can find below the tags of each chapter. The sole purpose of the document is to settle any future confusion as well as list many of the characters throughout the story, because you always need a little reminder.

i hate these both with a passion unbridled by god's own fury himself but whatever, ive sat on them long enough knickle one soaptube two and im gay

When Test Tube and Lightbulb messed with time travel, they created an alternate timeline in which Salt and Pepper became the world's fabulously malevolent overlords - and the new hosts of Inanimate Insanity Infinity. There the grass is purple, the clouds are cubic, and eliminated contestants are flung into a black hole, never to be seen again. It's not a pretty sight. But it raises an even uglier question: how did we get here? Join Paintbrush, Marshmallow and the others as they battle it out for a million dollars in Inanimate Insanity, in a timeline where everything is ever so slightly off. What new trials will they all face? Who will come out on top when the dust settles under these strange new circumstances? And is the twig okay? Fourteen contestants... One million dollars... A critical schism in the flow of time. This is Infinity Minus One. (A collaboration with Jennings AsYetUntitled.)
