    Summary

    Daniel can tell right away that something is deeply, unsettlingly wrong. And that’s when he realizes that Armand hasn’t moved his legs once in Daniel’s sight, which has been trained on him nearly the entire time. How long had it taken Louis to recover from his spinal injury?

    “He had a lot more going on,” Armand wheezes. “But, to answer your question without consulting your abysmal recordings? Months.”

    “Uh, they’re not so easily consulted at the moment,” Daniel says, trying to maintain his balance. It’s going to be a fucking miracle if he can get himself back on his feet, let alone haul a temporarily paralyzed Armand along with him. “I’m gonna let the head thing slide for the time being.”

    “The head thing?”

    “You. In mine.”

    “How generous.”

    “The way I see it,” Daniel says, “I’m your only ticket out of here if you’re in as bad a shape as I think you are. Tell me I’m wrong.”

    Summary

    “...there’s this kid I’m fostering.”

    Except for that, which stopped him before he could even start. He was sure the confusion showed, because the man smiled nervously again, and he didn’t lean closer, or whisper, but his voice did drop in tone a bit, not as audible over the clamor of other patrons.

    “She, um,” He started to raise a hand, paused, then tapped his left cheek, “she has scars on her face, too.”

    Summary

    In which Raine meets Hunter years before canon, and decides that a kid like him could use all the help he could get with an uncle like Belos. Even if they couldn't go much, they could try something, couldn't they?

    Years down the line, Raine is exposed as a traitor to the Emperor's Coven, and they are bound by the brand on their own wrist. Hunter notices. And as to be expected, he has more than a few complaints.

    Summary

    Sophie leaves another message for Jane: "I still haven't decided either way, but if we're doing this, you can’t stay in the PSA. If I'm keeping it. You have to come home."

    ***

    Jane replies: "I’m not discussing this on a potentially insecure channel, but I will encourage you to use your demonstrably excellent memory to recall how it affected you to see your mother held in His Majesty’s custody at a young age."

    ***

    Sophie says: "Is this some kind of Freudian argument? Because let me tell you, you rock that standard issue jumpsuit way better than my mother ever did. Or are you saying it would give any child of yours a complex? Like, she’d grow up and only have the hots for convicts like you? Because that’s a risk I’m willing to take. There are worse things my hypothetical daughter could do than bang a felon."

    ***

    Moreau says: "Sophie, you have got to stop flirting with Jane about this. I get it! You’re hormonal! But it’s distracting her from getting any work done, so try and put a lid on it before I have to confiscate her comms, okay? And please take this seriously. You know what’s waiting for her on Cassandra."

    Summary

    She’d seen Arkady do this several times before, but it was usually in the dim hours of early morning when Violet woke beside the other woman to find her awake and sweating from a nightmare. Sometimes Arkady couldn’t stand to be touched, sometimes she would squeeze Violet’s hand until the feeling left her fingertips or clutch at the sheets between them like an anchor. Violet had learned that the best way to proceed was slowly, and eventually Arkady would come back to her.

     

    or: sometimes you have to patch up your girlfriend when she's in full PTSD mode, and you just do your best

    Summary

    “Baby,” Maxwell said, a smile curling her lips up. Not quite cruel, but just a hair edgier than friendly teasing.

    “Sweetheart,” said Jacobi, smirking at her over Eiffel’s bed as she drifted around the other side of it.

    “Darling,” she sighed, folding her hands near her face and pretending to swoon. “Come on—we're all pals here. This is what pals do, right? Talk about their crushes?”

    “You can’t be serious,” Eiffel said, looking at them with unabashed disbelief.

    “Dead serious,” said Jacobi.
