Summary
Someone is sitting, hunched over and dripping blood, on the doorstep of the Fang home; They don’t look up at Hal’s approach. A hooded cape covers the head of an otherwise very identifiable Arcane Marshall. That’s… not great.
[...]
A glimpse of something Hal’s certain he didn’t see correctly has him angling himself to look inside the hood. Bolaire Lathalia stares back at him, just as despondent as his hosting body. That’s worse.
OR
Azune and Bolaire wear each other and end up as a pile of trauma responses- Hal and Murray go through some trial and error to figure out what happened to them.
Series
- Part 1 of The Showman, The Soldier, The Scholar

An Azune(Bolaire) Bolaire(Azune) rhyme scheme by gremlinbehaviour (Onehelluvapilot)

Summary
Azune flinched as Bolaire raised his hands to cup the young man’s cheeks, covering both his birthmark and more than one bruise and bloodstain. “You know who I am?” The mask asked. A nod into his hands. “Good. Listen to me carefully, my dear. If you want, I can take it all away for a little while. If you put me on, I will get us both out of here, and you don’t have to see or think about anything. How does that sound?”
***
After being kidnapped and held for ransom by one of the city's younger and more reckless thieves guilds, Azune is injured and traumatized to the point where his friends can't rescue him without hurting him worse. Letting Bolaire put him on/putting on the mask lets Hal, Bolaire, and Murray get him out of there, but taking him off again will be a lengthier, and gentler, process.

Summary
Caleb was laying, limp like a doll, on Beau’s back. Molly was reluctantly impressed that she’d seemingly carried him all the way back here. Overshadowing that, however, was the concern for their wizard. Caleb looked like he’d narrowly escaped a house-fire. His face was covered in soot and dried tear tracks ran down his ash-stained cheeks. He was pale as a ghost and even in unconsciousness, he seemed to tremble faintly. Molly couldn’t tell if that was from exhaustion, terror or an overuse of magic, though. Maybe even all three.
Or: After the fight with the Volstrucker, everyone is exhausted. Molly helps in any way they can.
