    Summary

    Sunday's eyes are fixed on the piano. He can't explain why, but something about it is captivating.

    It's been a very long time since Sunday's played piano.

    "Uh, Passenger Sunday?" the Conductor repeats, and Sunday blinks, stiffening as he glances down to meet their eyes, widened slightly in expectation.

    "I - sorry," he stammers, clasping his hands together before him in an effort to keep him from tugging his feathers. "I was just - I didn't know there was a piano aboard the Express."

    Pom-Pom glances back at it, a small sigh leaving their lips. "Ah, yes," they say, shaking their head. "That old thing... it belonged to Akivili, many years ago."

    They say this in the same tone one might say we found it on the side of the road amongst the trash and not this instrument belonged to the long-dead Aeon of the Trailblaze.

    The crew of the Astral Express, as Sunday quickly learns, love music.

    Or: five times Sunday played piano for a Nameless, and once he played for someone else.

    Summary

    It's just her perfume, he tells himself. But it smells like crystal grace and freshly-chopped wood, and it's the same, oh gods it's exactly the same.

    The world twists, and the next thing he knows, he's on the ground, knees tucked up to his chest. When he shuts his eyes, he sees it, and it's like he's back there – vivid images ride on the back of the scent and every detail is perfectly etched out. He sees the dying leaves, the peeling bark, the faded leather – and he's too scared to move or else he'll feel it too.

    It's never what he expects.

    ---

    Lavellan is missing the tip of an ear, and no matter how much he refuses to talk about the horrors of whatever happened that day, it just keeps coming back to him.

    Note: this doesn't go into detailed descriptions, but does imply some pretty dark stuff. More warnings inside.

    Summary

    Steve has nightmares like this. Eddie hurt. Eddie pale. Eddie with blood around his mouth. Still like a dead body in hospital sheets. He has nightmares like this, but this isn’t a nightmare. It’s December 1992 and the person on the phone said critical condition.

    Steve hasn’t spoken to Eddie since 1986, but the nurse on the phone called him, said come.

    So he drove. Said he was his brother, of course, definitely. He signed some sort of form and put down his credit card because Eddie’s got no insurance and the man at the desk had suggested he wasn’t letting Steve back there without one. He’s not sure that’s legal. He’s going to look into it, but not now. Not when he has nightmares like this.

    or: four days after Eddie’s been hurt and one day when he’s recovered.

    Summary

    “Ah, he just ran off somewhere. It'll be fine, son.” Dutch waved a dismissing hand.

    “I’ll go find him,” Arthur grumbled, replacing his scarf with a small huff, "I guess."

    Dutch laughed, the kind that probably meant something but that Arthur was not going to pretend to understand. Some untold truth, a subtle irony, and for a second Arthur felt he could understand it. Then he pushed the thought aside and marched outside.

    Summary

    Dutch had betrayed him. Betrayed them. Tried to kill him and Arthur, to leave them to the Pinkertons. Only to follow Micah again, that goddamn snake. After all Arthur and him had given him? All they did for him?

    It made John sick.

    The feeling of Arthur’s hat on his head had only worsened the feeling. It weighed a ton.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji had gone back to sleep. Not even Lan Sizhui and Lan Jingyi’s help in the kitchen could get Lan Wangji to finish breakfast, and he had certainly not wanted them reheated; his taste got significantly more picky the deeper the sickness sunk in, and his lips had zipped shut with a stubborn pout that made Wei Wuxian want to kiss it away if he wasn’t so worried.

    The last time he tried to care for someone, it broke into war. The last time he tried to care for someone, his shijie died.
    --
    Wei Wuxian mourns his seemingly inability to care for those he love.

    Summary

    Ten years after Steve returns from war, a man he thought dead arrives on his doorstep.
    -

    Five years of training himself to live with the constant buzzing underneath his skin, the emptiness, the nightmares. The memory of a man he hasn’t spoken the name of in just as long.

    He can hardly bring himself to even think the name now. Instead he thinks around it. Conceptualizes every letter with a memory. A smile for an E. A gasped breath for a D. The blur of tears obscuring his view of the ocean battering the side of the ship for every letter after.

    He even tries to force himself into doing the thing. Say the name. Just say it, he orders himself.

    He opens his mouth. Nothing comes out.

    Steve smokes the cigarette down to nothing.

    Summary

    “I’m not wasting bullets on a man who already believes he’s dead.”

    For the first time, something flickered across the stranger’s face. Not anger or surprise, but a dry sort of amusement.

    He huffed a faint laugh beneath his breath. “How compassionate.”

    “Aren’t I just?” Sherlock slipped the revolver back into its holster with theatrical flourish before offering an exaggerated bow. “The name’s Sherlock.”

    Straightening again, he flashed the man a grin.

    “What’s yours, Ghost?”

    Summary

    Severus Snape and James Potter are stuck together. Literally.

    It is, amongst many other things, Potter's fault. That is a fact; not up for debate. For, would he have not flailed and flushed like an idiot around a boiling, sensitive brew for no good reason (because he watched Severus put his hair up and freaked out as if it would kill him) then they would not be stuck together.

    They would not have to constantly be within four feet of one another, share emotions and even thoughts, be able to perform magic so long as they are touching, or miss classes because they, as stated, cannot go more than four feet from one another without dire consequences.

    Or even shower alone!

    Severus may go insane, yet.
