    Summary

    It was not supposed to happen like this.

    He was not supposed to meet anyone before he achieved his goals and dreams and accolades.

    And certainly not when he was only 6 years old.

    And then, he most definitely was not supposed to spend the next 7 years of his life quietly battling with not entirely…unpleasant feelings for Anya Forger.

    Summary

    Though no time in their line of work could be called peaceful, nor could vacations really be vacations for anybody (especially Twilight) she just… she just never expected an… emergency of this scale would arise. A setback this adverse. This disastrous. Almost catastrophic, even, considering how much Twilight shoulders on the daily for peace between two nations. This vacation was meant to be a rest and rebuild for her busiest and most efficient agent. Her best.

    “Twilight broke his neck?”

    -

    Or, how the Handler found out.

    Summary

    “You do know that depression is treatable,” Vyn says.

    “It’s not like treating it will do me any good,” Luke says softly. “I’ve only got three years left.”

    “That’s three years left to be happy, but...” Vyn looks at Luke, and in his gaze, there is something like sympathy, something like care, but Luke can’t give a damn about that when Vyn rips him apart with his next words. “...but you don’t think you deserve it, do you?”

    “Vyn—”

    “Why are you punishing yourself?”

    And Luke doesn’t know why he tells the truth. Maybe it’s because he wants to make the sentiment real, because if it’s real, then he can finally, finally commit to it.

    Defeated, Luke says, “Because I’m going to hurt her. One way or another, I’m going to hurt her, with this, and that’s unforgivable.” Luke looks down, not able to look Vyn in the eye. “I need all the penance I can get.”

    -

    One by one, the team sees the tip of the iceberg Luke has been trying so hard to hide. And then she finds out. And Luke’s world crumbles before his eyes.
