    Summary

    Alarm overtook Kaveh’s expression as he looked back and forth between Alhaitham and the matra, dropping his sketchpad and leaping to his feet. “Why is there a guard here? Did you get hurt?”

    “Some idiot decided poisoning me to obtain state secrets would be an optimal use of a Tuesday morning,” Alhaitham replied with a deep sigh.

    Kaveh’s hands hovered uselessly in the air for a few moments as he stared at Alhaitham. “I’m sorry, what?”

    Leaning back against the wall, Alhaitham let out a weary exhale. “Truth serum,” he said tiredly, raking his fingers through his hair then dropping his hand down to rub his throat. “I can’t lie.”

    Kaveh’s eyes widened. “Oh my gods. Are you - are you okay?” Hurrying forward, Kaveh - with his blessedly fully covered legs - guided Alhaitham onto the divan, hands steady despite the panic in his voice.

    “I don’t know. I’m just glad you’re wearing pants,” was all Alhaitham managed to answer.

    Summary

    Despite being a new recruit, there's an eager but benign confidence to him, a need to prove himself that he speaks with. "I'm Illuga, I'm a member of the Lightkeepers logistics squad. Mr. Flins, yes?"

    Without his permission, the corners of Flins' lips twitch up, quirking. "You haven't happened to see any other living soul around the cemetery, have you?" he questions instead, purely teasing as his tone carries his jest.

    It appears the young man is caught off guard by his response, for his eyes widen a fraction, lips parting with surprise. Quickly does he school his expression, attempting to hide his reaction for something professional, "I haven't, no." He shakes his head. "I was told that no one else lives here besides you."

    "Ah, then it seems you have indeed found who you're looking for." Flins crosses an arm over his chest, the other neatly placing itself behind his back as he politely bows. "An honor to make your acquaintance. To what do I owe the pleasure?"

    A look at Flins and Illuga’s relationship behind the scenes.

    Summary

    Illuga never learns from his mistakes.

    He turns his back in fear. He runs away like a coward. And every time, whoever he leaves behind ends up dead. Which means that when Illuga evacuates Nod Krai and leaves Flins to face the Doctor without him by his side, he must have surely sentenced him to his death, just like all the others Illuga left behind before.

    It is only in the wake of that realization, as he deals with his grief, that Illuga finally allows himself his feelings for the other man.

    Summary

    “It’s not actually haunted,” Lyney says.

    “That’s what we’re here to find out, isn’t it?”

    Wriothesley is the first to step toward the Haunted Mansion, to break the invisible barrier around it. He leaves Lyney’s side to open the gate; though, he stops short of passing through it. The galling smirk he sends over his shoulder has Lyney moving before he’s even opened his mouth.

    “That is… unless The Great Magician is afraid?”

    Lyney and Wriothesley find themselves trapped in a fair attraction that might actually be haunted. Or it's just a domain.

    Summary

    “I don’t need to know what you are,” Illuga says. “Just give me something. Something to cling to the next time you run headfirst into danger alone.”

    Flins sees the ghosts behind those pleading eyes, the shadows he tries to bathe in light, to pretend his lantern could drown them out rather than push them further into the corners of his mind. And he knows the stories, knows the haunted past that Illuga doesn’t like to talk about, the reason Flins’ answer matters.

    He settles on a simple, yet vague truth.

    “I am… not so easily killed,” he admits.

    “If you’re lying to me,” Illuga says. “I will summon you from the grave and kill you myself.”
