    Summary

    The alien birds didn’t seem to know what to make of him. They must have been important if they were buying intergalactic pets and providing them whole rooms to themselves, but if Logan had ever heard of a human before, he didn’t let it show. 

    Humans were horrible, from what the smugglers had said, because outside of Earth-- their deathworld, was what they had called it-- they were stronger than most species, and a heck of a lot more durable. The humans who got to space fell to their worst impulses, got addicted to killing, or so beaten down they were desensitized to it. 

    Patton would never be used to it. He wouldn’t try to be, not even if his life depended on it, not when he remembered how those first aliens had crumpled like paper mache under the force of a few blows. That was why he’d ended up with the fish people in a reverse aquarium, for being so boring. 

    That was why he stayed still and relaxed when the birds came to visit him, and let Roman touch his face and arms when he wanted to, even though Virgil tried to stop him. He didn’t want the birds to be afraid he would hurt them.

    Summary

    everyone, really, has been off after ogura’s trial came to a close. but that's to be expected. they're feeling the effects of the group being split, the extenuating arguing and lying that seemed to go on forever.

    it still doesn't explain the way tei’s acting, for lack of a better word, haunted. around him, in particular.

    (Or: Ikeda and Tei deal with the aftermath of a particular occurrence. Companion piece to [Selfless] and [Contrary].)

    Summary

    Tei can't sleep.

    They have another game tomorrow. If Voter Game was that bad, he has no idea what tomorrow will bring. Tei can’t stop thinking about it. How is he supposed to keep himself safe after all of that? How is he supposed to keep Ikeda safe after all of that? Just what is Tei supposed to do now?

    (Or, Tei and Ikeda share a bed after the events of Voter Game. They both talk...or, at least, Tei tries his hardest to.)

    Summary

    It doesn’t matter if he’s better or not. It’s all better since he’s where he belongs and nothing is happening and nothing is better than company.

     

    (AKA [Beg] written in Ikeda's POV with focus on his scrambled internal thoughts)
