For Marshmallow, figuring out life, death, reality, and the games we play is difficult. But navigating her relationship with Apple may as well be the most challenging thing she's ever done.
(Luckily, Marshmallow is no stranger to challenges.)
A Inanimate Insanity story where each chapter is a new lesson in love and life learned by Marshmallow while navigating her relationship with Apple during and after Inanimate Insanity II.
This story contains the rewritten version of the most popular Marshple fanfic in existence, as well as the original!
(Contains character deconstruction and a healthy helping of slow-burn Marshple, as well as eventual Lightbrush. It's canon-compliant up to "Hatching the Plan," but not with Season 3.)

Finger Paintings (REBOOT)
After MePhone4 mysteriously dissapeared, the remaining contestants were sent back to Hotel OJ. People picked up new interests, Fan became a famous internet blogger, Suitcase and Balloon became detectives, Test Tube continued her science experiments, ect ect... But what about Paintbrush? That *is* who this story is about, is it not? Yes yes, of course. How would we forget our beloved Paintbrush, famous across all of the seasons of II. What happened to them? Well, they started an art class, every wednesday they would help their students get better at painting. But soon enough, they found a new interest. Finger Painting. They loved how much control they had, they loved how easy it was to glide their finger against the canvas. One day, they accidentally spilt some blood onto their canvas. They tried to rub it away, but.. It felt good. Even better than paint. They loved the feeling of the blood against the canvas, rubbing into it and creating an amazing picture. How could they not like it? But they couldn't use it again, they could use a substitute. And so they would. ~~~~~ ah yes, im better at writing now how did that happen? since im better at writing i thought, why not rewrite my most popular book? its not like its ahha its not like ive got 3 other things to do so yeah finger paintings reboot was born also the death orders might be a little different i will not be making a reboot of revival (unless its highly requested). The ending to this is going to be very different, and will not need a second story. Thank you :) ~~~~~ THIS IS A REBOOT OF THE FINGER PAINTINGS STORY ON MY ACCOUNT, THIS STORY WILL CONTAIN THE FOLLOWING IMAGERY BLOOD SCREAMING DEATH POISONING SUICIDAL THOUGHTS VOMITING SELF HARM ALCOHOL USAGE SEX JOKES (like a lot of them) ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS MANIPULATION AND MUCH MORE. IF THESE TOPICS BOTHER YOU IN ANY WAY, PLEASE DO NOT READ. THANK YOU. ~~~~~ CHARACTERS DO NOT BELONG TO ME, THEY BELONG TO ANIMATIONEPIC ON YOUTUBE.Complete

Fan is ecstatic to join the new season of Inanimate Insanity. He's intrigued and a little starstruck, to say the least. Just as things begin to settle and friendships (sometimes more) begin to form, a troublesome event occurs. A contestant is killed in unknown circumstances. As the Bright Lights get smaller and smaller, will they be able to find out how these gruesome events occurred? Or, more importantly...who's next? (This WILL include in-depth depictions of murder, and some shipping, so read at your own risk! Also it's human au because I'm trash for that. Also also.

Teamwork is a skill we lack. [II SUPERHERO AU FIC]
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR NEW READERS please. please dont spam comment while reading through this anymore please im tired of getting so many constant notifs from this book its so tiring NOTE: This fic is highly unlikely to be receiving any proper follow-up from me, & I don't see myself writing anything else for this au in my foreseeable future] Meeple city, riddled with crime and supervillains. Though, with supervillains, there are superhero's to balance them out. Paintbrush has been stuck with a low level villain, Lightbulb, who should be easy to monitor and catch... but that's not the case. There's just something about her that completely throws Paintbrush off their A-game, and it's frustrating... and with everything becoming more serious, with plans going into motion that cant be stopped, they have to learn how to deal with that lack of focus to team up with an unlikely group to stop a grand, evil scheme before it's too late. - Characters belong to Animationepic , and are not mine. (Obviously) There are small headcanons sprinkled in & also plenty of ships.Complete

Decadence Is A Matter Of Time. (Inanimate Insanity AU)
This book contains MATURE because it includes Torturing, Suicide and all, but blood, injury and gore and all are present but it's not that DETAILED. At least I hope so. Don't read this story, it barely gives any information so read the 'rewrite' version of this book in my profile! I DO NOT own Inanimate Insanity, I am NOT the owner of these character names and the show itself. Adam Tyler Katz, also known as AnimationEpic (YouTube channel) is the rightful owner and the show itself. The only thing I own is the story itself as an author. Thanks for 4,000 reads! I don't recommend reading this book though, go read the remake version of this book! THEY'RE OBJECTS NOT HUMANISED. This is a Inanimate Insanity & Object AU Just a note that the title of this book has nothing to do with the book's contents We all known someone who was hiding all along in the perilous forest. Taco. We all know her past. Ever since Microphone eliminated herself and left Taco for good, she felt, worthless, useless, regretted for trying to manipulate her 'friends' for the money, she had realised that she didn't care about this 'friendship', from her view, it was fake, she regretted for betraying Pickle. But, what happens when Taco gets attacked by someone?

Though you annoy me, I'll take your hand in mine any day
DISCLAIMER THIS WAS WRITTEN & CONCLUDED LONG BEFORE S3 ENDED, AND LONG BEFORE II S2 EPISODE 16. SOME THINGS MAY NOT BE CONSISTENT WITH HOW THINGS WRAPPED UP THERE. KEEP THAT IN MIND MePhone 4 ends up hurting himself, and OJ has to keep an eye on him while he recovers, so he doesn't cause any trouble for the hotel, but as they spend time together, the two end up growing closer. This technically takes place post-canon, since s3 contestants will be mentioned in the hotel cover art by me characters belong to animationepic & the web series inanimate insanityComplete
