Summary
Shivering so hard his teeth are chattering, Malcolm’s bleary eyes land up on Gil, and he whimpers, “I’m s-sorry…"
“Ah, ah,” Jasper murmurs, covering his mouth with a hand, cutting him off. “My brother didn’t get any last words, did he? No. So neither will you."

Summary
Stay awake. Stay awake.
'But for how long, my boy? How long can you?'
He's already starting to drift again, gasping as he jerks himself upright before the trigger can pull again, and Gil's terrified gasp lets him know just how close he came, even without realizing it.
'Gil's life depends on it, hmm?'
Another moment he nearly slips away, as hard as he's trying not to.
'Oh, but how unfortunate for him...you've always been so easy to put to sleep, Malcolm.'

Gun to Temple + "Say Goodbye" | Waking Up Disoriented + Can't Pass Out -
Tags
Summary
“You can’t keep me like this forever," Malcolm says, steady as he can. "You can’t. They’re going to find me.”
And he's certain of it. He's certain.
But when Martin finally looks at Malcolm, it's the same way John had in that dark basement just before saying, no one ever will, and Malcolm suddenly isn't.

Summary
Malcolm wets his lips, swallows hard, exhales a breath that comes out as a soft sob of pain.
“They’ll find you,” he whispers. He means it as a threat, a last resort, something to scare John off, but he isn’t surprised when all John does is laugh.
"No, no, no. You see, that right there...that’s why we need to go somewhere private. Somewhere we'll have all the time in the world."
He grins, all teeth and malice, and leans to whisper in Malcolm's ear.
"Somewhere no one will ever find us.”

Summary
Malcolm's hand slides down to press flat against where Gil's is, and through just a few inches of thick glass Malcolm has never felt further away.
"I told you to wait!" Gil cries, pulling out his gun. “Why didn’t you wait?”
Weakly, Malcolm smiles. A hysterical giggle slips out as he spits more water. "Sorry," he whispers, with no chance of it being heard, but Gil must read his lips because he suddenly looks even more distressed than before.
He should have known, really. Malcolm’s never done anything more than disappoint him...it only fits that his death would be doing the same thing.

Summary
"I heard you bragging about your high pain tolerance…is it true?"
God, Malcolm is fucked. He has an undeniable urge to make it worse, opening his stupid mouth to say, "You'll have to find out."
Kersey giggles, pure, unadulterated joy clear within it. Strokes the tip of the scalpel over Malcolm's lips, and he can feel that it paints them red with his own blood.
"Dear boy, I'd love to," he murmurs. "I'd love to."

Summary
Gil’s already in motion, and he has an awful, awful feeling as he sprints out the door.
There’s a small crowd gathering just outside, gasping and muttering among themselves, and Gil slides past someone, shouts at the others to move until they separate enough he can see what they’re staring at.
And his heart fucking stops, because it’s Malcolm.

Summary
It’s...weird. Malcolm can feel the tension between him and his partner, and he hates it.
He wouldn't even be asking for a lot. Not even for a friend. Just maybe someone who doesn’t make him feel like him just existing is a bother for them.
He supposes it is, though. He supposes it always is.

Summary
Malcom stares up at him, utterly baffled. “What are you doing…?”
“Oh,” August says, ruffling his hair. “Sorry, I suppose I never did explain. You see, I’m going to drown you both, right in here.” He taps behind them, and Malcolm exchanges a frightened look with Gil. “But what fun would it be if I didn't get to watch you struggle some, first?"

Summary
“It’s nothing, Gil. Goodnight.”
JT fumbles with his coat, tries to pretend he wasn’t just listening in, but if Malcolm knows he doesn’t mention it. He just gives JT a little wave, and tells him goodnight, too, taking out his phone and tapping away on it as he nudges his way out the door into the night.
Gil sighs, standing in the doorway, bracing himself against the frame. He’s never looked his age, but now he looks so, so much older.
“He’s not okay, is he?” JT asks, after a moment, and Gil doesn’t respond. Doesn’t have to.
It wasn’t nothing.
Whatever happened, it wasn’t nothing.

Summary
"Oh, Malcolm...what have you done now, hmm?"
The floorboards creak, and Malcolm ducks his head further. He knows he fucked up, he knows he did, and he knows he's going to hurt for it.

There’s probably worse ways to go, but right now, surrounded by darkness as the water keeps rising, Malcolm isn't able to think of any.

Summary
Gil looks dead.
Almost. No, no, no. Almost. Because Malcolm knows. He knows what real dead looks like. He doesn't think ever in his life has he known better.
But Gil still looks bad. Gil looks like he still might not make it, and Malcolm will be even more lost than he is now.

Summary
"Keep fucking going! Go! Almost there.”
His captor tugs the leash in his hand, and Malcolm shrieks in pain, stops and nearly drops as the collar around his neck pulls.
The collar lovingly crafted by the man out of barbed wire, the little teeth digging into him even when it’s not being wrenched tighter, when it's not being pulled and he doesn't think it's going to cut him in half.

Summary
“Fucking rich little brat coming in off the streets, bribing his way in—” His throat is grabbed, and he’s pinned back, choked and shook until he’s seeing black spots. “You think you’re better than us? You really think that? Huh?”
Malcolm spits, takes a breath, and says, “Yes.”

Stupid goddamn man. He's really going to make Malcolm do this, isn't he? Everyone always having to test him, to see how far he's willing to go.

Summary
They're going to kill them both, anyway. When these men find out that neither of them are holding the information they want, Malcolm knows they're going to die.
And maybe that's for the best, because he doesn't know how much more of this either of them can take.

"Bright. Stay on the phone with me, okay? I’m on my way. You know I don’t mind.”

Malcolm shouldn't be alone tonight. Gil makes sure he isn't.

Summary
Malcolm takes a shaky breath, and then asks, “Did I die?”
“No. No, you still had a pulse. Barely, but...it was there. You were there. You're here."
Malcolm nods, pursing his lips. His hand is trembling so badly that Gil can see it shuddering the blanket, even as he tries to hide it.
“Felt like I did," he says. The last word turns into a sob the second it leaves his mouth, and Gil doesn't want to tell him how much it looked like he did, too.
