    Summary

    Slowly, like the trickling warmth of the tide coming in, the flush rises in Gavin's cheeks. He doesn't answer, just stomps away as belligerently as he can with two dozen eggs nestled in his apron, while Tina and Chris exchange their animated chatter. Spellbound still, Nines follows Gavin with his eyes until he stomps into the staff entrance and disappears from sight.

    Two different things, what Nines is meant to do and what he has come here for.

    I came here for you, he thinks.

    Summary

    Reed let out a laugh. “So that was genuine, back there? You’re stuck doing everything I say?”
    Connor slowly shut his eyes.
    "No, this will be good for you! It'll be character building," Reed laughed, "Not a word of this to the old man."
    ~
    Gavin Reed is partnered up with Hank and Connor on a case, much to the disgust of all three of them. However, something changes and Connor finds himself compelled to obey everything Reed tells him to do. With Reed finally getting his petty revenge on Connor for merely existing, Connor tries to make Hank aware of the nightmare he's stuck in.

    Summary

    The doll was stained in blood both red and blue; decades of wear had faded much of the color from its surface. To anyone else, it was unsettling, even scary, cursed or haunted. But Connor, falling apart under the weight of sins both his and not, couldn’t bring himself to put it down for more than a few minutes at a time.

    Summary

    You remember the first time you really realized you were fucked up.

    You were five. First year of kindergarten, miserable as all fuck. The teacher told the boys to line up on one side of the room and the girls on the other. You don't even remember why. You just remember the result.
