All spoilers for the canon OMORI are unmarked. You Have Been Warned.
Maybe it'll turn out okay.
is an ongoing OMORI fanfic written by paranormalCaffeine. It takes place a year after the game's good ending, with Sunny going back to school with his old friends, reconnecting with them, and getting in a relationship with Kel.
This fic provides examples of:
- Alpha Bitch: A girl in Sunny and Kel's school bullies the former and is implied to have turned other students against the two. While her name isn't given, her popularity makes her easy for Kel and Aubrey to recognize.
- Amicable Exes: While Aubrey is a lesbian in this fic and is no longer dating Sunny, the two are still very close and she's more than willing to save him from the girl that bullies him in their school.
- Big Damn Heroes: The second time the school bully beats Sunny, Aubrey runs forth and punches her away, and the school's and Aubrey's notice of the incident results in the bully's suspension from school.
- Content Warnings:
- Both of Sunny's encounters with the unnamed Alpha Bitch are preceded by the author warning of bullying and violence.
- "Guilt" also forewarns that it brings Sunny's grief, his sister's death, and a nosebleed to light.
- Downer Beginning: Near the start of the fic, Aubrey breaks up with Sunny over both her realization of her sexuality and her interest in Kim for sticking with her over the last few years. Heartbroken, Sunny breaks down crying and lapses into a depressive episode in his home until Kel hears the news and arrives to comfort him.
- Last-Second Word Swap: Aubrey nearly refers to Sunny's bully as "that bitch" before realizing that school faculty's in her presence and starting with "sorry, that person" instead.
- Murder the Hypotenuse: Severely downplayed as the girl who attacks Sunny envies his relationship with Kel and wants the latter for herself.
- Second Love: Since Aubrey ended Sunny's relationship with her, Kel fulfills this trope once he and Sunny start dating.
- Shout-Out: Sunny and Kel's texts with their Love Confessions to each other are akin to the instant messaging client from Homestuck.
- Stuffed into a Locker: Sunny's bully shoves him into an open locker the second time she beats him up.
- Title Drop: Once Kel and Sunny confess their love for one another, the former assures the latter with the fic's title in bold, it being a hopeful, lighthearted take on Basil's past "reassurance" to Sunny.
- Trauma Button: Hearing Kel fall over on the wooden gym floor in his basketball game brings Sunny to tears and intense worry over the trauma of his sister's death, despite the present occurrence inflicting nothing worse than a nosebleed.
