Summary
Light washes over him, and he gasps for air as his body demands more oxygen. A figure in a white coat steps into the room, and he scrambles even further into the corner he has already crammed himself in. His toes dig into the padded floor, his back the padded wall. He wonders when the walls of dirt, rocks, and wooden beams were replaced.
In which Tommy was placed in a mental asylum after being discharged from military service in 1916.

Summary
The sound of the fire returned. It was accompanied with a dull, throbbing pain in what felt like his entire body. His lashes fluttered as Jon tried to pry his eyes open, though that turned out to be a greater task than he had imagined. His eyelids seemed to have been filled with lead as he slept. Jon drew a slow, sluggish breath, and winced in pain. Someone must have noticed his movement, he thought as the sound of soft, padding footsteps joined the crackle of the fire. He finally succeeded in cracking his eyes open, and he was met with a tired-looking Satin peering down at him with a worried look on his face.
Or: Jon wakes in an abandoned wildling hut after the mutiny with Satin watching over him. Post-resurrection AU.

Summary
River Cartwright stood at the edge of the service tunnel, staring into the pitch-black maw ahead. The smell hit him first—stale, damp, metallic, like rust and something far older. Underground London. The part no one wanted to think about.
“Are you seriously afraid of tunnels?” Louisa’s voice was low in his earpiece, threaded with just enough sarcasm to cover concern.
“No,” River lied. “Not tunnels.”
Just this one."
River suffers from claustrophobia.

Summary
“Watch where you’re fucking going, before you end up as roadkill.” The man warned with a harsh tone, but without raising his hand.
River quickly tried to apologise, but all he could manage was a fragile “Sorry, sir-“
“Drop the ‘sir’, I’m not your parole officer. It’s Lamb.” River assumed that wasn’t his first name, so he stuck to the safe option of ‘Mr Lamb’ for a while.
