    Summary

    Gordon sniffed, loudly. He was furiously rubbing at his eyes with his sleeve and smudging up his glasses in the process, tremors continuing to spike through him even as he took deep breaths to calm himself down. Now that they weren’t so close and he could get a proper look, it was the smallest Warren had ever seen him - legs tucked to his chest, hands obscuring his puffed-up face and bloodshot eyes.

    “Oh,” Grace said. “I see.”

    Summary

    Qifrey hasn't been to visit since Beldaruit offered Coco a place in his atelier.

     

    MANGA SPOILERS through the first time they meet Beldaruit. Technically takes place after Silver Eve, but doesn't really contain any major spoilers for that arc. Can be read if you are an anime only watcher, but there will be Qifrey backstory spoilers. No chapter 40 or chapter 93 spoilers, though hinted at.

    Summary

    “You know,” Olruggio says, roughly. He doesn’t move to take Qifrey’s hand again. “You know. You can’t not know, Qifrey.”

    Qifrey just looks at him. “I do.”

    The rain continues falling.

    (And so Olruggio forgets. And he inevitably figures it out again, because of course he does; and he inevitably chooses to forget again, and again, and again, because his heart is always the same. The story is always the same. Like a tale from under a silverwood tree, like a myth from the days of old, not so much tied by the constraints of the narrative so much as being narrative itself. Antigone must bury her brother. Iphigenia must be put to death. At a thousand turns, in a thousand ways, Orpheus must turn, and he must look, again, and again.

    And Olruggio forgets.)

    There is an old story about a witch and a silverwood tree.

    Summary

    For as long as Qifrey could remember, he’d never properly understood the ferocity with which others felt this sort of thing. He’d reasoned that it was simply that he could not entertain it; true pleasure, and the kind of comfort that he imagined should come with it, had always been far from his reach.
    Except, Qifrey could have it now, if he wanted. Qifrey felt quite certain that Olruggio would entertain it, if asked in earnest; his evidence lay in a decade’s worth of stolen glances.

    -
    Free from the affliction he's carried with him since childhood, Qifrey realizes his lifelong struggles with desire run deeper than a curse. Olruggio meets him in the middle as best he can.

    Carl blinked at him. "The only thing that would make me angry is if you thought for a second that I'd rather leave those kids behind."

    Or: When Mordecai rescues the changeling children from the assault on the high elf's castle, he keeps his heroics from Carl. He has his reasons.

    Summary

    When a deal is made to end the Dungeon, some crawlers pay a higher price than others. Three years later, Mordecai comes to visit.

    --

    I thought, as we bid each other good night and retreated to our normal, sleep-as-much-as-you-can beds, that I'd missed him. As Donut stuck her paws under his door, insisting it be left open at night like mine was, I knew that she'd missed him too.

    Summary

    SecUnits are separated from their daemons the moment they come online. Murderbot meets its own daemon for the first time when the company transfers its contract to Dr. Mensah.

    The idea of having a daemon, a physical soul, is bad enough. But Murderbot's daemon isn't anything like what it should be. For one thing, it won't shut up about how much it wants to kill humans.

    Summary

    The same day Saren was expelled from the Council, Shepard was promoted to his position. The first human Specter... it was hard to believe. The expectations of an entire race now rested on her shoulders. And, if her vision was true, so was the survival of the entire galaxy.

    When she arrives on the Normandy with her new position, the team greets her with a standing ovation, although what she really craves is a moment of disconnection with Joker. With him, everything always feels a little easier.

    Summary

    “Witches are the product of mingled demon and mortal blood, are they not? We have one of the former and plenty of the latter. If we need witches to fight for our cause, the Fourth Prince can resolve the issue by simply finding a willing partner and making more.”
    There was a beat of silence, and for a moment Kai did not understand. The sleepy, inattentive atmosphere had evaporated, and Bashasa’s cadre had all snapped to attention. Across the table, Ziede slowly straightened up from her comfortable slump.
    Then, all at once, Kai understood perfectly.
    “I’m not your shitting broodmare,” he snarled, and realized then that he might actually be furious.

    Lahshar has an idea about how to solve their witch scarcity problem, and Kai talks about the past.

    Summary

    Back when he had been Kai-Enna, he had never woken up in the Kentdessa clan tent and been afraid to hear rain falling on the canvas. Today was no different. Nevermind that this was the first storm he’d seen since before the Summer Halls, or that it had only been a few weeks since Bashasa took him away from the Cageling Demon Court. It shouldn’t matter. It didn’t matter. Kai wouldn’t let it.

    Summary

    “See, that’s something that I don’t, that I can’t, get,” Edward admitted, shaking his head. “I don’t believe in a God, especially not one that people claim is good or just or knows what is ‘right’. The Universe isn’t just or merciful, that’s something humans have to make for ourselves. The Universe just… Is.”

    “You’ve seen the Thing beyond the Gate,” Roy said idly. It wasn’t something he liked to recall, but he did remember It. It was hard not to… especially when It was the last thing he’d seen before his world went dark. In any case… “That thing calls Itself God.”

    Edward rolled his eyes. “It also calls itself Truth.”

    Or, an exploration of Edward Elric, the Universe, and God.

    Summary

    “What’s with all the questions, man?” The kid was suddenly on the defensive. “I’m just here to give ya drugs.”

    “What’s your name then?” Johnny sighed out. “I need something to call you.”

    The kid eyed him before nodding slowly. “V.”

    Johnny blinked. “That’s a letter, not a name.”

    “‘S all you’re gettin’,” the kid, V, replied. “And I’m fourteen.”

    “The fuck you are?” Johnny looked them over. “You look like you’re ten.”

    //

    After attempting to emotionally manipulate the kid that runs the drugs between him and his dealer, Johnny finds himself maybe starting to form a begrudging fondness for the little shit.
