    Summary

    “Not really,” Nanami says, a ghost of a smile pulling at his mouth. “But I can guess. And – no. I don’t. I’m content with being your coworker. It would be rude to make my feelings your problem.”

    “Coworker,” Satoru repeats, almost incredulous. “Nanami, you’ve said a lot of dumb things in this conversation but that might be the worst one – and I want you to know that’s very, very impressive since you also just said that your feelings about me had nothing to do with me.”

    Summary

    Missing scenes between chapters 72 and 74, and from the timeskip in 76.

    The parameters of what is and isn’t possible in the world just won’t do Nanami Kento the courtesy of being consistent. He’s coping the best he can.

    So is everyone else.

    (Rough draft is complete, but the first chapter is the only one I’m happy enough with to post. No schedule planned, and not sure how many chapters it will divide into.)

    (Oh yeah. Happy birthday, Nanamin!)

    Summary

    Yuuji doesn’t notice that he’s crying until a strangled sob wracks his body and he gasps for air, the sensation of choking now grasping his lungs as he’s unable to make the tears cease. Choso’s hand comes up to rest on the side of his head, tilting it so that he’s is fully leaning against the man’s chest.

    Summary

    On the first day of John becoming a free agent, Marcus said, “Why don’t you start a new job?”

    John stared at Marcus from the armchair. Marcus had come over with a bottle of Old Rip Van Winkle bourbon to celebrate, a rare vintage that John didn’t exactly have the palate to appreciate. Marcus had poured John a couple of fingers of it anyway, and was sprawled over the couch with his grizzled head propped up on cushions. “I already have a job,” John said.

    “Killing people isn’t a job. It’s a hobby.”

    Summary

    John stared, incredulous. “You want me to be your plus one. To your sister’s coronation.”

    “To put it crudely, yes.” Santino wrinkled his nose. Trust the Baba Yaga to cut brutally to the point.

    “No shooting anyone?”

    “If you feel you have to, be my guest. It’s entirely optional. I’d also prefer that you clear something like that ahead of time with me. As a matter of courtesy.”

    For the first time in this conquest, Aegon had miscalculated. One sister was wild with rage at the injuring of her dragon, the other was helpless asleep her saddle. His dragons, once his biggest support, had become a hindrance to his plans.

    Summary

    The darkness in the kennel is thick, suffocating. It reeks of rat piss and molding hay. Every instinct screams danger, though Halsin cannot yet make out what hunts him. His darkvision does not pierce the deepest corners, but he knows—oh, he knows—

    There’s something hungry here.

    After saving the world, Tav turns their attention to dismantling Cazador Szarr. But what they discover in the bowels of the Szarr palace is far more than a single corrupt noble.

    Summary

    "A pity, truly," Astarion cuts in smoothly. "If we only had more time, there's nothing I'd like more."

    Wyll feels his eyebrows lift. "Come now," he says. "Surely you know as well as I do that Gale will be lost in his book shop for hours yet –"

    Astarion catches his eye, over the top of the shopkeep's head. Those red eyes are just a touch wider than they ought to be; the stare he shoots at Wyll is rather more intense than is warranted, over something so minor as a fitting.

    Summary

    "I'm not instructing him to do anything," says Wyll, biting off each word as though it's personally offended him. "It's his decision to make."

    For a long moment, all Astarion can do is stare.

    "It's his decision to make," rattles in his head like a cry disappearing into the depths of a well, an echo of a voice, fading to nothing only to reappear again.

    Astarion has never thought of it in quite that way before.

    Summary

    Astarion interrupts him, waving off the explanation. "About the horns, darling. The eyes. The whole look."

    Wyll feels his brows drawing down – can't quite keep the scowl from creeping onto his features. Since they've begun traveling together, Astarion has grown on him, but the man has a wicked tongue and a penchant to dig needled barbs in where they'll sting the most. They're bearable, for the most part – amusing even, when Astarion is at his best, skewering any unfortunate ne'er-do-well who dares to stumble into the path of those cutting words.

    But there's a time and a place, Wyll finds, and this is neither.

    "I scarcely need help drawing more attention," Wyll says, rather more bitter than he intends.

    Summary

    When the dust clears – and it is a frightful amount of dust, all told – Astarion is marginally surprised to see that no one has been left a bloody smear on the cave floor.

    Really, he can't be blamed for assuming the worst. The boulder is the size of the tunnel, nearly, the sort of impending doom that ranks with gale-force winds and approaching dragons on the list of things that might inspire a man to pray to any gods kind enough to lend an ear. Astarion isn't that sort – any god who might have granted him a boon has had centuries of prayers they might have chosen to answer before this, after all – and yet here they stand, miraculously intact, as though some deity just so happened to have glanced their way at just this moment.

    Perhaps Wyll is a religious man.

    Summary

    Now the only sound is the pathetic whimpering of the man still strapped to the table, wet with his own blood, sans eyes and sans tongue.

    Does he even know they’re here?

    It’s hard to say. He’s jerking and crying and thrashing, still, tearing the skin at his wrists in his efforts to get away. Astarion schools his face into something unaffected, and he carefully doesn’t look at the man.

    He’s seen a thousand scenes just like this one.

    He’s lived them.
