Summary
Murmuring people with vines splinting their limbs or crystals shivering out their sides hurried past to their duties. Brnine’s wet shoes squeaked on the glass. It comforted them, that shivering wail. At least something was disturbing the still, almost solemn air, echoing upwards and expressing how it truly felt.
Gucci certainly wasn’t. She chatted with Emaline about the city’s upcoming initiatives and the gloomy weather and anything, really, but their business with the Witch— which they still didn’t know the finer details of. Gucci had called them and asked for a ride, and that had been that.
Before Dust dreams and the knife going in, before the red sun and blood in the grip, before being cast as bait and how it rippled into all that followed, there was this—a cavalcade of taut meetings in the Crown of Glass; once rivals, almost friends, a final gambit with teeth bared; and closeness in an empty rec room, unguarded and unexpected, spilling out of wary hands.

Summary
Gucci Garantine soared alone through satin skies dripping with orange and chiseled with violet hues. It was beautiful. Smoldering still, thinking of Brnine’s face when she left them, she barely noticed. She had been hoping – she didn’t know what she was ever hoping for from Brnine. To ground herself, maybe. Not because she couldn’t handle Clementine, of course she could. And no, the smell of rotting flowers and paint dripping from sleeves did not give her pause. She could not allow it to. It was Clem. The girl who's nails she did when they were girls, inspecting her bitten cuticles for polish that spilled over. The girl she once kissed quiet after an argument at a funeral, when she lived with people that had time to have those. The girl who was a woman now, who was something beyond human, who made a shattered ancient archive her castle, and filled it with monsters. Gucci could handle that.
The hovercraft glided, noiseless and shielded. She could see the faintest sheen on the horizon, the Crown of Glass piercing the ever-sunset, and when she looked down, her fists had clenched so tightly that her nails broke skin.
Gucci reversed course.

Summary
Sometimes Brnine felt like there was something under the surface, and sometimes they felt like they were imagining it. Sometimes, just before Jesset let a real topic drop, Brnine had the sinking feeling that he was about to say something they couldn’t ignore. Like they could only put off things for so long.
And it was easy to imagine either one of them dying. They both… well, neither one of them was in the habit of steering away from cliffs these days.
(after pld42, brnine and jesset talk about it.)

Summary
When they woke up, the sun was there, whole and indicating it had been at its day's work for a while. Someone had taken away the containment unit where Integrity was coiled and had left flowers in its place.
Their phone was radioactive with alerts. Most importantly: from Jesset, a response to their hospital bed photo and reciprocal heart— drinks and steak and debrief soon, captain!
And from Gucci, early this morning— Let me know when you’re awake.

three revolutionaries, caught in each other's orbit
OR,
“You could come with me, if you wanted,” said Jesset. “You know, if you’re not busy or anything.”“Sure, I’d love to,” said Brnine. “Just let me-”
“That does sound like a great idea,” said Gucci, appearing at Brnine’s other elbow. She didn’t quite touch them, but there was something territorial about the way she was standing. Or maybe Jesset was just overreacting. “Why don’t we invite everyone?"

Summary
He’d known what their arrangement was from the beginning and Stolas certainly hadn’t let him forget it. Blitz was supposed to return the book to him once a month, and he did. Blitz was supposed to thoroughly fuck him once a month, and he did. That was it.
Stolas was the one who’d decided that Blitz had outgrown his use, all because Blitz wasn’t in the mood to rail him after that clusterfuck at the club. This was not Blitz’s fault and he was going to make sure that pompous asshole knew it even if it cost Blitz his access to the book.

Summary
So Stolas is objectively. Objectively. Attractive. Kinda soft-looking, sometimes. Pretty. Whatever. Fuckin’ whatever. That’s always been a thing. Blitzo knew that, Stolas definitely knew that-- whatever.
This is not, Blitzo thinks, sounding a little bit desperate even to himself, some sort of revelation.
His flicks of the lighter get a little more unstable, a little more frustrated.
A clawed hand reaches over and takes hold of the lighter, lighting Blitzo’s cigarette with practiced ease, as if he’d done the same thing a thousand times before (He has, Blitzo realizes).
“Silly Blitzy,” he giggles quietly, giving Blitzo a soft pat on the head before curling up beside him, stretching one last time before closing his eyes to sleep.
Blitzo feels warm.
This, Blitzo tells himself, and it sounds like a command, will not be a problem.
…the lack of Slow-Burn Friends-With-Benefits to Lovers with Octavia & Blitzo Bonding as a Sideplot content in the stolitz community is Appalling, so i am merely fulfilling a demand in the market

Summary
As Stolas sighed and solemnly turned for the door, something caught his eye… Or rather, a wall full of somethings.
Stolas’s stomach dropped.
Every single photo on Blitzo‘s wall had his face marked out of it, successfully blotching Blitzo out of sight from his loved ones - his little employees, his daughter, and one other imp that Stolas had no recollection of, but could only assume held some sort of significance to Blitzo.
Glancing in disbelief at the silent, shaking figure on the couch, Stolas clutched his heart in contemplation. He took a nervous breath as something inside him decided it was most important to say something else.
Anything else.

Summary
When Blitzø gets drugged and kidnapped by an imp gang, he has to fight tooth and nail to make it out with his life. When his injuries prove to be a bit too much for him to handle, he sucks up his pride and goes to ask Stolas for help.
Normally, not a big deal. Except this time, he hasn’t spoken to the guy since their shitty first date at Ozzie’s. And when one of his wounds gives Blitzø a nasty fever, he finds himself revealing a lot more than he intended.
A post ep 7 fic with a lot of Blitzø whump and Stolas finally learning where the lines of communication had broken down between them.

She nodded.
"This will cost ShadowClan," Runningcloud said.
"What're we supposed to do?" Dawncloud said. "We can't right well give them back."

Summary
As Peter’s eyes fall on Juno’s arms his heart plummets into his feet. Just above the crook of each elbow lie dozens upon dozens of parallel scars, as thin and straight as the razorblade that must have made them. Thankfully these look old. It’s clear it’s a habit Juno broke years ago.
Thank fuck for that.3rd person, but focuses on Peter's pov.

Summary
Peter meets Juno when he's still with the HCPD...and Diamond.
__
The officer holds up a plastic cup. “Water?”
Ah—the gruff voice from before. Peter knows better than to refuse. He sits up, then shudders from his toes to his fingertips. His ribs feel like a battered marimba. He does his best to fold away the worst of the pain, crosses his legs and holds out his hand. The officer passes him the cup. Peter drinks.
“Come to play good cop, have we?” Peter asks once he’s done.
The officer plucks the empty cup out of his hand. “Pretty sure we both know that’s an oxymoron, but thanks for the vote of confidence."
