    Summary

    A very short one-shot I wrote in like an hour of Occtis and Thimble thinking of each other during their journey. I am so obsessed with these 2 and I need them to reunite soon! I also wanted to experiment with writing in present tense.

    Summary

    After the soldiers get overwhelmed by a horde of undead, Thimble's wings get damaged and she's accidentally left behind in the woods. Dangers ensue as she tries to make it back on her own, but can a flightless pixie make it in this big, scary world? (Lots of physical and emotional hurt, but plenty of comfort at the end to make up for it, dw)

    Summary

    Halandil Fang choosing to sleep in his office at the theater less than a week before the show isn’t unusual to anyone who knows him. Honestly, they’d be worried if he wasn’t. It isn’t as if they haven’t seen this behavior before over the years and countless plays that Hal has produced. Commenting on such a thing would both be gauche and hypocritical. Most theater folk have their rituals to ensure a good opening night; lucky coins sewn into their costumes, charms tucked away where they won’t be visible to the audience. If Hal says the smell of ink and greasepaint eases his mind, and that he sleeps better surrounded by props, who are they to laugh behind their hands?

    That Hal isn’t sleeping well wouldn’t be a surprise to them either, if anyone knew. But they don’t. Hal is an expert in applying stage makeup designed to be seen by the back rows, and the same skillset scaled down allows him to hide the dark circles under his eyes. The smile though, the warm, reassuring, confident smile— that’s getting harder to fake. A mask that’s beginning to crack.

    Summary

    There’s a long stretch of silence, and Thaisha is almost done with her soup when Occtis speaks. He sets his cutlery down, a gentle frown creasing his forehead. 

    “Your kids,” he starts. “Are they okay with, well… this?” He gestures broadly. 

    Thaisha’s eyes meander around the room; her and Occtis’s half-eaten meals; the flickering fire; the fact that they’re both so far from home. She thinks of Alogar, wondering what food might have been served to the Barrowguard tonight. He doesn’t like stews or soups, but he’d choke it down anyway if it was all they offered. And Shadia — had she eaten with Hal tonight, or was she caught up in all that she does, squirrelling herself away in her bedroom with a hunk of bread and cheese, trying to figure out a new juggling routine? 

    “I don’t know," she says. But I hope so, she thinks. "I suppose it doesn’t matter, really. I’m here anyway.”

    Or: Thaisha's kids might be the best part of her, but that doesn't mean they're the only part.
