    Summary

    He couldn’t believe he fucking did that. He’d kissed Nines on nothing but a whim.

    Some of the numbness began to crack, and he closed his eyes before dragging a hand out to press against his face.

    What was going to happen now, he wondered. His actions would qualify as assault, if Nines pressed the issue, which Gavin predicted he would. What false hope he’d built in the moment was now rubble and broken scaffolding that tumbled out of him with each step forward.

    There was no nothing between them. Nines had saved his sorry ass out of obligation.

    Summary

    The coat ripped away from the concrete with the pops and prickles of torn micro fabric, and Gavin was suddenly just a little bit closer, up to his ears in upset for reasons he didn’t have the words to quantify.

    “I don’t need anything from you, asshole. I just didn’t know if you wanted to do anything with me!”

    For 'The Break Room Winter Exchange (DBH 2023)', hope you like it!

    Summary

    “Alright...” Sebastian’s boots squeaked on the floor as he neared where Joseph was sitting, his dog tags glistening under the back-up lights. He threw a leg over the bench, gray shirt being pulled on over his head while he made to straddle the seat. “We’ve got a few minutes until she’s done… why don’t you catch me up in the meantime?”

    A glimpse of an au I thought up. It has so much potential, I just won't ever have time to write it - especially for a long-since dead fandom! Enjoy, either way!

    Summary

    The reason Jake didn't want to go this way, specifically into the water, was because despite being cleared for duty Piers still hesitated.

    Summary

    "I'm Piers. Piers Nivans."

    "Cool," Jake bit into his toast, eyes skirting over the brunet before he stuck his attention elsewhere, "going to tell me your astronomical sign too?"

    "... you mean astrological?"

    Summary

    Jake was watching out of annoyed curiosity, and nothing else. It didn't matter that he had noticed the way Piers closed his one good eye as he shifted his weight back, lips parted in an exhale that was probably meant to center him. Or the way Nivans' dog tags dragged on the mats whenever he moved to readjust the pose, the exposed nape of his neck most likely dappled with sweat and making the chain catch against his hair.

    Nah, Jake hadn't been watching because of that.

    Summary

    “You wanna know why I’m here?” Jake drawled, weighing the new book in his hand before he looked down at it. “That thing that chased us…” He used his index finger to lift the cover, lips twitching before he closed it and calmly sat it back on one of the lower shelves. “Let’s just say I’m trying to keep that from spreading. This shelter or whatever it is - it was supposed to help me do that.”

    Summary

    Some foreign garbled language - some voice - got right to the point. It let him know what his new purpose was, its own version of re-mothering, he surmised. It gave him detailed instruction and no tongue to argue. This was final, this was his fate.

    Summary

    Her heart immediately leapt into her throat, fingers tightening around her wine bottle as her eyes remained glued to the bathroom floor. There wasn’t a whole lot she could see given she’d ceased her advancement, body frozen and breath lodged in her windpipe. Yun-Jin’s first thought was a robbery or a break-in but that would’ve meant that they'd gotten by the penthouse building security, and she could only think of one other person who had the latest codes to her level.

    Summary

    "You don't have to feed me this story every time, pup. I get it." The redhead butted his nose up against the other's, aware of the strange look that started to take over Piers' face. "Go on, s'probably time I get up anyways."
