    Summary

    “It wasn’t easy, you know, convincing Yaga to let me keep you around because your piercings are hot and you turn my guts inside out when I ask nicely.”

    You never ask nicely, baby, Suguru thinks. “Yeah, I can’t imagine that going over well.”

    A demure little hum, play-pretend. “Mm. I had to make up some lie, instead, to sway him. That you’re strong, and brilliant, and dangerous, and it’s better to keep all of that under lock and key on campus than to let it run amok. And some shit—you know, about how—I don’t want to lose you again. That I want—need you around.” His tone dips, a low and fragile thing. “I really missed having you around, Suguru, you know.”

    Summary

    Satoru doesn't survive the fight with Fushiguro Toji. He dies, cold and alone, leaving behind only a curse with a taste for carnage. Suguru brings that curse to his lips, swallows down the remains of his best friend, his one and only. He doesn't know if it's Satoru's soul or just a mindless curse he's ingesting, but still, he can't part with it.

    Summary

    He was eerily quiet as they both got dressed in their black suits that morning, sunlight streaming in through the gaps in the curtains and painting streaks across Shouyou’s face. Before they went outside to get Natsu, Tobio tugged on Shouyou’s hand and pulled him into a hug, holding him close. Shouyou released a shuddering sigh, tucked his face into Tobio’s neck, and just breathed against his skin. They stayed like that for three minutes.

    Shouyou still didn’t cry.

    *

    Grief changes people. Upon experiencing a devastating loss, Tobio is confronted with a Shouyou he can hardly recognise.

    Summary

    Soap wakes up next to Ghost in the mornings, just to get called by a name that isn’t his. Ghost wakes next to Soap and sees another Sergeant that he’s going to fail.

    Roach is a specter haunting both of them, keeping them from moving on and finding peace in each other. Then news comes down that Roach might not be as dead as everyone thought and Soap comes face to face with the man whose shadow he’s never been able to get out of.

    A fic inspired by the sheer amount of angst that can be found in all of Zach Bryan’s songs.

    Summary

    Below the observation deck, the Marshal Commander of the Third Systems Army is being divested of his armor and weapons, shackles heavy on his wrists. He doesn’t struggle, only a mulish stubborn twist to his jaw showing his displeasure at the situation.

    Obi-Wan opens his eyes, steps back from the observation window. “I need a week.”
