    Summary

    Falin was good at what she did. She had a strength in magic, a compassionate thing that made her hands shake and her voice go soft—though it was always soft. She knew it was soft. She knew, like everyone else knew, that it was soft. Falin made the restless undead rest, and her desires never wavered, and she never stopped wanting to try. She kept going—her brother understood, agreed with her. Her father didn’t scare her. Ghosts didn’t scare her. Being away from home and being enrolled in a magic school didn’t scare her. Feeling the way she felt about Marcille didn’t scare her, either. It didn’t. It never would. But the way she felt about her own body, her own life—

    That scared her, a little.

    (or: falin knew right from the start that she didn’t quite fit into the body she lived within.)

    Summary

    Even years after their journey into the dungeon, Marcille wasn’t quite over her existential dread over short lifespans… And it showed. Every other day, she came by to Chilchuck’s locksmith shop with a shocking lack of locks to smith.


    "I’ve told you not to treat my shop as a cafe! That table isn’t for sitting at, it’s for work!"
    "… Can you go get me a coffee though, please?"
    He grumbled as he did just that. "But you’re not getting backstore today. I still have a shop to uphold."
    "Thursdays are slow days."
    He maybe should have been miffed that she knew his shop’s business so well.

    She, of course, proceeded to get backstore later that evening.

    “So, are you two dating now?” Laios asks.

    His question is directed at Marcille— who gapes at him, and Falin— whose face turns pink.

    Shuro drops his fork.

    Summary

    The familiar power of magic flowed through her, mingling with the blood in her veins and the blood that ran down her staff, but it felt different than any other time she'd used it. It felt too big for her body, barely contained inside her, like the sheer force of it could split her skin and explode out of her. It crackled through her bones like lightning and they strained under the pressure, moments from snapping.

    The air tasted burnt. Electric. The ancient words filled Marcille’s throat, choking, bursting out of her with such strength she wasn't even sure if it was her speaking them.

    Never, for even a fraction of a moment, did she regret it. Not even when she felt her mouth fill with blood and her ribs crack, not even when she collapsed face-first onto the concrete.

    Marcille,” Falin gasped, the first word she could manage. Her own voice sounded foreign to her ears. Wrong.

    Summary

    Marcille had never noticed that Falin could lie. How could she never have noticed?

    Marcille goes to the West out of her own volition.

    Well. That's the official version, anyway.

    Summary

    When Marcille turns back to examine the plant, he lets his lights drift past her to illuminate it. She takes a step forward. And then a tentaclus vine, clinging to the wall above their heads, promptly smacks her off the pathway and into the depths of the pit.

    -

    Caves, cooking, and possible camaraderie.

    Summary

    Dragons are territorial. Greedy. Proud. Selfish. Quick to Anger.
    These were things Falin knew. Things she’d read in books with her brother when they were young, huddled around an old tome babbling excitedly about every spare fact they found out.
    “They say dragons choose one thing they love above all else and create a hoard of it to keep forever!” Laios had exclaimed with bright eyes, his finger tracing the outline of a huge pile of coins and jewels on the page, lovingly rendered with a dragon sleeping on top of it.
    “Just one thing?” Falin had peeped up, frowning, “How could they only be able to choose one thing?”

    Summary

    Just as she's wondering that, the door swings open, and Marcille immediately meets twin gazes as Falin and Laios both step into the room. Falin still looks worried, and even Laios looks uncomfortably bothered at the sight of Marcille sitting up, which she would be massively offended by if she weren't struggling to control her stupid body.

    "Marcille! You shouldn't be upright yet!" Falin immediately scolds, and she rushes forwards to Marcille's side, pressing a hand to Marcille's forehead again– this, at least, feels familiar, easing the previous doubt. "The poison is still in your system, so you have to be careful, okay?"

    "What… what happened?" Marcille croaks, wincing at the sound of her own voice– it cracks against her will, raspy and strained and leaving her just as breathless as sitting up had.

    "You accidentally drank from my cup," Laios says, and he appears at Marcille's side before she even realizes he's moved, giving her a hard, undecipherable stare. "You don't remember?"

    ~~

    or: after canon, marcille drinks poison meant for laios and has a bad time of it. luckily, she has falin and laios both there to nurse her back to health.

    "You're here," Marcille whispers into Falin's skin at night. "You're here, you're here, you're here…"
    "I am," Falin whispers back, and she can feel Marcille's body relax against hers, Falin's words soothing wounds that lurk beneath skin, her voice stronger than healing magic could ever hope to be.
    And they wait for morning.
    ---
    After everything is over, Marcille and Falin start to build a life beyond the dungeon walls.
