That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic)	comment	At the end of the final volume of Hiveswap Friendsim, the MSPA Reader is whisked away by Doc Scratch, learns the truth of why they were sent to Alternia, and then tasked to read a "brief" webcomic.Things do not go as planned in this story. In this story, the MSPA Reader's makeshift home of the Old Watchtower collapses, forcing them and their friends to act fast if they don't want the imperial drones to catch wind of them. But it may already be too late.The story is complete at 57 chapters and can be found here.

That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_1dfd19f9	type	Papa Wolf
That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_1dfd19f9	comment	Papa Wolf: Inverted. Upon noticing that a stranger is feeding his lusus an unidentified plant, Galekh steps toward them with the intent of pushing them away with as much force as he can muster, which, as an indigo blood, is a lot. His Footnote Fever notes that he isn't considering being tactful or using appropriate restraint because "that’s [his] fucking dad this stranger is touching."

That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_36135fb0	type	Official Couple
That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_36135fb0	comment	Official Couple: In addition to the ones seen in canon (Azdaja/Konyyl (matesprits with quadrant vacillation), Folykl/Kuprum (moirails), Tagora/Galekh (kismesis), and Tyzias/Stelsa (matesprits), there is also Marsti/Folykl (matesprits), with Marsti picking up Ardata as a moirail in-story, and Elwurd/Cirava (moirails). The MSPA Reader has become the ashen quadrantmate for Azdaja and Konyyl, and by the end of the story has made their moiraillegiance with Polypa official and might have become Mallek's matesprit.

That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: The MSPA Reader is able to escape with many of their friends, and Fozzer and Remele have their minds restored... but the Handmaid reveals that they're in a doomed timeline, which means that their escape will ultimately be for naught as reality falls apart. However, they're able to speak with the MSPA Reader from Pesterquest, who is more determined than ever to save their Alternian friends.

That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_443f9d8a	type	Ask a Stupid Question...
That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_443f9d8a	comment	Ask a Stupid Question...: Upon learning that Amisia is the Reader's friend, Polypa asks her why she put a culling claim on them. She mentally acknowledges that it's a stupid thing to ask, since she herself (and, as she'd correctly suspected, both Azdaja and Konyyl) had tried to accept the job for the same reason (keeping other trolls from killing them). Later, after being informed that the "pan-broken" troll she just interrogated will be disposed of, Elwurd asks the troll in question, Cirava, if they're able to free themselves with their psionics. They promptly glare at her, and she quickly decides to free them with lockpicks she has in her shoes.

That's Rough, Buddy (Fanfic) / int_7831c048	comment	So Much for Stealth: At the start of the story, the MSPA Reader is living in the Old Watchtower, which has been built into a cliff and has fallen into a state of disrepair before the Reader even arrives. It predictably collapses with the Reader inside, attracting the attention of Imperial drones.
