    Summary

    “Watch your step, Beau,” a fox cackled from under the shelter of a bush, stretching and trotting out. Kravitz glared at him, tightening his cloak. “Don’t be like that. Gimme a ride,” he complained, circling Kravitz’s legs.

    “Go away, Taako. I’m not your umbrella,” Kravitz retorted, walking forward determinedly. He’d had years of practice not slipping on foxes weaving under his legs.

    “Beau, I’ll drown,” Taako whined, stepping in front of Kravitz and starting to put his muddy paws on the front of his cloak with his ears back. “C’mon, you barely ever notice me.”

    “The villagers do,” Kravitz grumbled, holding his cloak out. “‘Fox boy, where’s your fox today?’”

    Prince Beau Kravitz finds his castle under inspection. It's not quite living up to the Beauty and the Beast that the city council expects and the consequences of failure are dire. Desperate, he turns to the trickster fox Taako to pose as his missing prince.

    Unfortunately, they both might have a problem pretending to be married, because they are both still acting like they only see the other as a friend.

    Good thing they're already living happily ever after.

    Summary

    “I call John - and not this cosmic-shadow-whatever John, not corrupted John, not the Hunger, not nothin’. I know there’s gotta be some part of the guy that I got through to when I told him off about his whole existence-is-horrible bullshit - I mean, he wouldn't have come back to warn me about all this if there wasn’t! So I’m gonna bring him back, goddamnit.

    I’m gonna bring back my friend.”

    (Or, Merle uses the Bond Engine to try and bring back John.)

    Summary

    Like the room, Merle instantly noticed a difference. John wore a sharp suit (as usual), but the cufflinks at his wrists were fancier, delicate and appeared to be engraved. They glinted in the low candlelight, as did his shoes: lacquered and polished. Most noticeably, his tie was an uncharacteristically bright shade of green. His hands were locked in a bridge upon which his chin rested. He leant against his elbows, a smile on his face, head tilted to the side like a cat.

    “Hello, Merle.”

    Summary

    John only has one moment of physicality each year. One moment of viewing the setting sun, of feeling the cool trickle of water down his throat. One moment of having hands and feet and eyes and skin.

    Such small things. Such an insignificant thing, a body. He should be past this.

    (He isn't.)

    Summary

    "I told you about the question game thing, right? I think I told you about the question game.”

    “You have told me about the question game,” Lucretia nods.

    “Good - good, okay,” Merle clasps his hands together as he grabs his hand of cards from the table, “so - y’know how I always showed up to Parley shirtless, yeah? One day - one day, a while into our meet-ups, John looks and me and he goes ‘Merle, do you always walk around shirtless?'"

    Summary

    By an ironic twist of fate, Istus has forced him back to the material plane, on a planet he’s never heard of, to a distant future he was never supposed to know existed. John was not worthy of peaceful non-existence.

    Dear gods, he doesn’t want to be here.

    (John is reborn from the ocean, Merle helps him learn how to swim.)

    Summary

    I love you guys???? wow, i never expected that my first fic would get so many comments so fast, like. I love every single one, thank you guys so much. I feel really inspired to write a little bit extra for- not a sequel perhaps, but just something more? the taz fandom is so lovely, honestly, you guys have given me 14 comments on a fic i wrote less than two weeks ago and I have that same amount of comments on a fic i wrote two YEARS ago. god you guys are so nice.

    Also, I usually use poetry lines for my titles and here is the one I used for the first fic (and the second!) (https://inkstxinvd. /post/170680666042/i-dont-want-to-become-dust-when-i-die-i-want-to) to give credit to the person who wrote them.

    Summary

    Now, John is looking out over the ocean, watching the reflection of the night sky in the shifting waves. Merle had passed out in his cabin below deck a few hours ago. Without him, John seemed to drift, the way Merle had told him he’d done unconscious within the Hunger for centuries. “He’s still getting used to bein’ a guy again,” Merle had said. “Don’t be too hard on him, alright?”

    Davenport knows the feeling.

    (Or, Davenport begins to find himself again. John comes along for the ride.)
