Who Knows, Who Cares was almost going to be titled either Tigersuit, Paper Tiger, or Defy.

The Bombs was originally called Tokyo Is Burning.

Looking Up was originally called It's Not a Dream.

What It Is to Wonder was originally called Nuclear, then Static before resting on the current title.

The Infected was originally called Superbug X.

Crazy technically is called I'm Not Crazy, but I got lazy and started typing Crazy and it just stuck.

Belle Morte was simply saved as Mortimer because the prologue started with his name and I was lazy.

Wintersun was originally titled When Your Lungs Collapse, but no diggity in the "official" version.

Saudade was saved as Ubiquitous.

Ghostings was Victorian Horror for a long time and before that, it was From a Shadow in the Dark.

And What About Love? was saved as Keep the Streets Empty for Me and almost ended up being New York State of Mind.

I'm not linking them because I really can't be arsed.

• 660KB went through so many names. I ended up naming it after the 660KB of space one of my Minecraft launchers uses. xD
• 3679200 was "Seven Years" first, but I titled it "3679200" officially before I published the story page.
• Blankspace has kept its name.
• From Ashes was many things before. "The End", "Void"; some of its names are now poems of mine.
• Quiet Places was "Fly With Me" the first time I published it.

Some of my older, unposted ones include...

• The Void and All Its Promises, which was later renamed to "Oxygen".
• The Future: A Guide to Survive and Thrive in the Party District of the Universe, which was originally "The Future: As Told from the Point of View of a Cynical Cosmonaut Who Can Tell You Firsthand How Much Flying Cars Suck".
