    Summary

    "Flins," Varka nods in hello, and then jumps right into the problem at hand. Nobody is around to hear them except the ghosts. "Why haven't you slept with you boyfriend yet? Are you torturing him on purpose?"

    The puffins chirp like a peanut gallery and Flins sort of just stares in his unnerving way he does sometimes when he forgets to act human.

    "I adore Illuga, I would never hurt him so.'

    "Then why did he come to ME for sex tips?"

    "When?"

    "Yesterday!"

    -

    At his wit’s end, Illuga turns to Grand Master Varka for relationship advice. Varka ends up getting far more entangled between Flins and Illuga than he predicted. Title is from A Midsummer Night's Dream by Shakespeare.

    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.”

    Summary

    Kevin Day thought there was something familiar about the last-resort recruit from Arizona when they watched his tapes. It wasn’t until he was looking him in the eye in person that he realized. Nathaniel Wesninski might be miscolored and a few years older than the last time he saw him but to Kevin he was unmistakable.

    A ‘Kevin recognizes Neil’ fic.

    Summary

    Kevin leans in close enough to the Millport coach’s grainy, black-and-white television set that he thinks for a moment he can smell the human through the dusty screen. “That one.”

    In the words of Nicole Kidman, "A girl's gotta eat."
