    Summary

    “You’re late tonight, Cupcake,” Vi says.

     

     

    “Ah. Yes. Indeed—well! You understand how Council meetings are. The more tedious and unimportant, the greater their determination to run through the night,” Caitlyn says, stepping behind the counter and reclaiming her bag. “And—shopping! I thought we’d better stock up before we found ourselves utterly bereft of food. I got your favourites, actually. I could make you dinner tonight?”

     

    The offer hangs in the air. Caitlyn’s face is flushed, but Vi doesn’t question her. There’s no fun in trying to pry out whatever Caitlyn’s hiding; she always gives in too easily.

     

    “Uh-huh,” Vi says.

     

    “Right. Right. I’ll just—sorry to disturb you.”

    Summary

    I have no right to own integrity. I kill liars for money. And Vi will never know it.

    If only she could explain to Cait the seriousness of what she does, the truth of why things happen the way they do.

    Summary

    After a long day, there's no better way for Caitlyn to wind down than in Vi's company. Although, the way that Caitlyn decides to destress may not be the most... kind towards her wonderful girlfriend.

    Summary

    As she watches a sick woman in a hospital gown and beanie drag her IV pole down the moonlit road, Vi thinks she's found the easiest prey of her life. But just a few words in, maybe she's found her match instead.

    Summary

    “Fate etched your demise in the fabric of eternity itself,” Rio says, sweeping her arms open; spiders skitter from the dark creases of her cloak. “It was written eons before your birth. Now – the time has come to – ”

    “The end is nigh, sinner!” says a familiar voice behind her. “It is I, Lady Death! Ooga booga!”

    If Rio had eyes right now, they’d be twitching. Slowly, she turns to take in the unwelcome (if increasingly-frequent) sight: Agatha, holding a Ghostface Halloween mask over her ghostly face. Draped over her head in a paltry imitation of Rio’s cloak is a sequined black shawl – Billy’s, Rio guesses. She knows that the kid’s been trying his hand at drag recently.

    “Oh, this is so embarrassing,” Agatha says, flicking a finger in Rio’s direction. “One of us is gonna have to change.”

    ------------------------

    Just when a ghostly Agatha decides she's ready to give into Rio's centuries-long pursuit, Rio swears that she's finally done with the pursuing.
