Summary
A story about Verso coming to terms with his existence within the canvas. His friends try to help him in their own ways but it barely touches his ennui. There is care, there is love, why can't Verso feel it?
This takes place after the game so be wary of spoilers although nothing is addressed directly so much as indirectly.

Summary
Then Verso felt it, a strange pulling sensation, not quite in his foot but through it. Like something was being drawn out of him, gentle and careful.
The sensation intensified, and Verso watched in fascination as faint tendrils of color—his color, the gold of his chroma—began to drift from his skin toward Monoco. It moved like ink in water, curling and flowing in patterns that shouldn't exist in the air but did anyway.
When the light faded, there was a man sitting in front of him.
A naked man holding Verso's foot with hands that were now flesh instead of wood, skin tanned and weathered and very, very warm.
"Holy shit," Verso breathed.
In which a lazy afternoon leads to new discoveries.
Or; Monoco transforms into a human using Verso's chroma for the first time, and then they fuck about it.Bookmarked by ColdForj

Summary
In 1903, a twenty-four year old Verso Dessendre goes to a bar to prove to himself that he isn't gay. When he instead gets taken under Gustave's experienced, deeply slutty wing and ridden to within an inch of his life, he is not exactly inclined to complain about this.
(Or: Masken said a single sentence and I responded with 5k of porn. You know, like a normal person?)

Summary
"He allows himself to drink in the rare sight of a relaxed Verso, expression slackened, the tension he is always carrying in his shoulders dissipated. His lips are slightly parted, a strand of hair that has fallen into his face being ruffled with each quiet exhale. Gustave wants to kiss him so badly. Wants to dig his hand into that gorgeous hair, yank him to standing with a tug and pin him against the wall, a leg between his thighs and his mouth against his ear as he takes him apart over and over again."
Verso is determined to run himself into the ground for the sake of absolution. Gustave refuses to let him and uses whatever means necessary to remind him he doesn't have to.

One quiet winter afternoon, a strangely-dressed man with an aureole over his head falls out of the sky.

Summary

Summary
Gustave babysits Verso Dessendre as a teenager through his High School years.
Eventually, though, Verso decides that he is too old for Gustave, and they drift apart, even though they spent hours talking about trains every single day for years on years.
Years later, when their paths happen to cross again thanks to the meddling of his friends and family, Gustave is surprised to find that not only does Verso remember him - there's a spark that wasn't there before. One that... well. He's not about to let slip through his fingers.

Summary
Remember this - your name is Verso. You are at least 50 years old. To get your age, subtract the number on the monolith from 100 and add 33. You don’t look old. You’re immortal. You are not real.
Your mother is Aline Dessendre. She is the Paintress. She made you to replace her real son. This is important- you are not real. Your sister is Alicia. Your father is Renoir. You had another sister, but she’s missing. Her name is Clea. None of you are real.
Your mother is trapped at the top of the Monolith by her husband, the real Renoir. Every year she gets weaker and he erases more people. The people of this canvas call it the Gommage. You will not Gommage.
Your mother is dying because she’s been here too long. The only way to save your mother is to make her leave the canvas. The only way to do that is to kill her. You need to work with an Expedition to get through the barrier and kill her.
You won’t remember any of this. Keep this journal close, and read it when you forget again. Every time you die you’ll forget more.

[COMIC] Do you want to spend time with Gustave? by queenstardust

Summary
Hello, this is my first time posting here! : D
I want to share my little Verstave Comic, I drew for the last convention I attended : ) Since I drew it the weekend before the convention, it's self printed and folded out of one DinA4 page, to a pocket size smut zine. It's 6 tiny comic pages+title, so it really is just porn without plot, but a lot of feelings.
I hope you enjoy it ♡Bookmarked by ColdForj

Summary
He knew everyone here, some better than he’d thought he would, some faces well-known even if the souls behind them didn’t recognize him. Everything was quiet, unchanging except for the endless shift of the seasons, and he told himself this was what he needed to be happy.
So when Verso Dessendre saw a strange car, road-dusty with a number plate and rental sticker that announced its further strangeness, bouncing down the town’s ancient, cobblestoned main road, he was instantly suspicious.
Or: Verso Dessendre, acclaimed author and illustrator of the Esquie et ses amis children's book series, lives a quiet and isolated life in Vielle Lumière-sur-Mer for reasons he doesn't examine too closely. When a physics professor on sabbatical shows up in his sleepy backwater town, wearing the face of a man he watched die over a hundred years ago, the questionable peace Verso's found starts to become something else.

the phantom life sharpens like an image by gi_dipshit

Summary
Gustave bought the painting on a rainy Thursday because it was easier to stand among abandoned things than return to an apartment that never felt like his own. He didn't expect the grand piano on the canvas to play itself at midnight. He didn't expect the white roses to multiply.
And he certainly didn't expect Verso—the man trapped inside the ballroom, preserved in oil and grief by a mother who couldn't let go.
In a world that feels half-erased by the rain, two lonely souls find each other across the edge of a gilded frame. But to truly be together, Verso must confront the memory that painted him into a masterpiece and learn what it means to be a person again, rather than just a portrait.
