    Summary

    “Grian,” Scar started. He caught his roommate’s wrist and stepped towards him. Grian froze. “You okay? We don’t have to do this tonight if you’re too tired.”

    “No, no. It’s not that," Grian said quietly, tentatively raising his gaze to something above Scar. It was only then that the latter remembered their exact situation.

    Mistletoe was hanging above his head, and now Scar was holding Grian in place underneath it too.

    “Oh. Shoot.” His heart beat into his throat, voice shaking a bit as he tried to laugh. “The rules of Christmas seem to have bested us once more.”

    Summary

    “You want to kiss someone?”

    Scar seemed to tense at the echo of his wish. His face shifted as wonderful splotches of color heated his cheeks. Those green eyes looked askance, nervous laughter filling the air around them. “Yeah, uh, y’know. I’ve never really tried out that holiday tradition. Would be nice to check it off my bucket list.”

    “Oh,” Grian said, willing his voice not to break. “Have you… got someone particular in mind?”

    Scar just huffed out a little laugh and sent an unreadable glance Grian’s way. "I think I’ll just go for whoever’s nearby when midnight strikes.”

    Summary

    “I’m sorry, Grian,” Scar repeated. “Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?”

    For a moment, Scar thought he saw Grian’s gaze dip again, but with distance between them, and the glare from a lamp on the other man’s glasses, he couldn’t be entirely sure. It made his heart squeeze all the same.

    Grian straightened, huffing, “No.”

    Scar hesitated. “Are you sure?”

    “Positive,” Grian said. He leaned into the couch cushions, his countenance changing with the wave of a hand. His face relaxed, his legs crossed in front of him, and a wide smile split his lips. “You’ll pay for what you’ve done in due time.”

    Summary

    Grian slept fitfully. His dreams were odd, starting off normal and slowly deteriorating. He found himself on a beach with a map in his hands. That much was normal, routine. What was strange was the level of alarm that filtered through him once his consciousness realized Scar was not at his side.

    And then, there was the song.

    Faintly, Grian heard someone singing. It was a haunting sound, slow and looping. There were words, but the language in which they were spoken was garbled, lost in the melody. For some reason, he felt as though it wasn’t meant for his ears. He felt like it had picked someone else.

    Summary

    The day after Scar breaks up with Grian, the dead come back to life. Knowing that venturing out alone is a death sentence, the sudden onset of the apocalypse forces them to stick together despite the tensions between them. In the wreckage of the world, they're forced to survive side-by-side, coming to terms with the fact that—try as they might—there's no one they trust more than each other.

    Go!” Grian shouts as the monster charges, putting his whole force into the blow.

    Scar watches, frozen stiff as Grian fights until blood and gore and viscera mark the creature up like a Pollock painting.

    “What are you waiting for?!” Grian snaps when he finally notices that Scar is still standing there. He grips his weapon tight and attacks a final time, slamming the zombie down—good and dead—and standing panting over top of it, strained but victorious. He starts rushing from the scene, calling back for Scar over his shoulder. “Run!”

    And in a way that’s as familiar to him as breathing, Scar chases after him.
