“I cannot love,” the words burst out of the man, unbridled. “Not in the way that matters. Can you truly fix this, Mage?”
The wind danced around them and whispered the quiet challenge of fate that only the Mage could hear. “This is a serious accusation against your heart,” they said slowly, ignoring the wind.

A story about loveless hearts, about Mages who fix them, and about Witches who don’t.

Summary
Grace is put on cleaning duty and gets a mysterious fourth bag of vodka for his troubles.
Rocky begrudgingly takes on the role of Designated Driver slash Space Blob Supervisor, and receives a different kind of gift in return.
“Grace. What are you doing?”
Grace's mouth, still smushed against my xenonite, curves upward: Contentment, happiness, satisfaction. Interesting, that it should be prone to smiling when made stupid by ethanol, but not so much when it gets stupid because of a lack of sleep.
“‘s called a kiss, buddy. I‘m givin’ you. A kiss. ‘cause you're my best friend annnnd I like you. And y’nno what, you're actually pretty nice. When you’re not goin’ outta your way to be mean to me, that is.”

Gordon chokes on the air, on his own saliva, on something. "Seduction plan?!"
"I did call you handsome."
"You said I looked like a Reddit moderator!"
"Well, yeah, but that was all because of the bad suit and the haircut and the – " Warren waves his hands around. "There was potential there, is what I'm saying, I mean look at you now, you're all cardigans and curls and dimples and – big hands and – "

Summary
Scar has found decent support for himself while working for G.H.O.S.T. He gets a steady paycheck, the insurance works well enough, and he's made good friends with people he finds himself able to rely on. He wouldn't say it's a perfect life, but it's good.
It's not like he uses half of that stuff anyway, though it's the thought that counts.Sure would be a shame if some random guy with an ego the size of Saturn came in and threatened to ruin all of that.
