    Summary

    No one walked through Raven's Roost after dark. They didn't get a lot of strangers round here, and no local was daft enough to tempt fate at high altitudes. This was a fact Steven mentioned on account of there was some drunk fool wandering Raven's Roost after dark.

    Or: Steven was beginning to really care for the Burnsides boy they had taken in. He just hoped no government officials came knocking about that alien thing.

    Summary

    And the world?

    The world loved Taako.

    For once in his gods-damned life, people loved him. They didn’t care about all the flaws, they didn’t care where he came from or who he was before. They loved his food and they loved him. No one would ever quite be at Taako’s level and that was something he thrived on. There would never be anyone who could measure up. Taako deserved this happiness. He worked for it. He wasted his fucking life away for it.

     

    Or: A character study on Taako and his growth in learning to care, forgetting, and learning again.

    Summary

    Ever since Taako picked up the umbrastaff again, Lup has been honing all her focus, attention, and magical power to figure out a way to to manifest a physical body, and return to the material plane without immediately being eaten by her umbrella again.

    Good news: she succeeded.
    Bad news: now that she's out, she's not really sure what's going on.

    Summary

    “There’s a lot you don’t know and I can’t tell you yet,” the Red Robe said. “And I’m genuinely sorry about that, Magnus, but right now, from the Bureau’s perspective, I’m not the good one.”

    “From your perspective?” Magnus asked.

    “From my- I…” he stopped again, contemplating, as if no one had ever asked him this question before. "I try to be, I think."

     

    AKA: Magnus has questions and no one from the Bureau is giving him answers. He goes looking for the one person who will.

    Summary

    Déjà vu. Noun. A feeling of having already experienced the present situation. A tedious familiarity.

    Barry Bluejeans woke up in a cave, fresh out of a pod filled with green goop, and saddled with an unsettling feeling that he had been here before. If you had asked forty-year-old Barry if he would follow instructions left by a talking coin, he probably would have asked you what type of drugs you were on. But, y’know, fifty… two? Fifty-one? How old was he? Fifty-two sounded right. But, y’know, fifty-two years old Barry didn’t really have that many other places to turn, so this couldn't be all that bad.

    Summary

    As if Merle dropping in unceremoniously was his cue, the man stands up. It’s a frantic motion, and before Merle can even open his mouth to get a word in, the man is absolutely booking it over to him. He’s not all that tall, has nasty-looking gashes in his face oozing with the same static that flickers outside, is wearing a grey suit that looks like it’s seen better days, has his long hair tied back with - wait, is that one of Merle’s flowers? He’s the guy with the whole ‘pink petals’ aesthetic going on - and Merle -

    Merle swears he’s seen this guy somewhere before.

    (Or, John contacts Merle just a few moments too soon. This changes some things.)

    Summary

    When Angus meets 3 unusual strangers on the train, he goes from suspecting them to trusting them with a speed that surprised even him. He isn't sure what it is about them, but their humor, enthusiasm, and overall strangeness is just... fun. It isn't long before he's inviting them to take an even bigger part of the case than he'd expected.

    When they part ways he is expecting them to be nothing more than a fond memory he will occasionally chuckle at, but then they run into each other again. And again. And again.

    Angus wouldn't usually mind (after all, he likes these guys), but it's really frustrating when half of their words are just static.

    OR

    What started as a retelling of the Rockport Limited from Angus's POV turned into an experiment to see what would happen if Angus was never inoculated, but kept popping up to help with the relic hunt anyway.

    Summary

    Taako's memories of his childhood, exactly how he remembers them. His memory might be a little fuzzy, but it's nothing to worry about, right? He's been outcast and alone for as long as he can remember.

    [This is a case study on what it would be like to have no memories of family. Nothing about the IPRE, Lup, and Taako studying to be on the Starblaster trip. I wanted to think of what it would look like to see, visually, how Lucretia's edits changed parts of Taako's memory she would have never expected.]

    Summary

    After Glamour Springs, Taako received a letter and a promise. It seemed like it might be too good to be true, but what else could he do? So, like so many before him, he went to Wonderland and hoped he would find what he was looking for.

    Summary

    "Angus didn't truly remember much of what happened as they lept from the train. He remembers disagreeing with Taako's decision, then being pushed out, likely by Taako. Taako shouted out that he would be fine as he screamed. He flew for a while, then his head hit something hard."

    "Duck Newton ("It's a nickname.") had gotten used to his nightly visits from Minerva. He was dressed up in training clothes, sitting on his couch as Wheel of Fortune slowly drew to a close. As 6:14 came around, he expected to see the blue, spectral figure of his 'Trainer', but was instead greeted by the small form of a child, bruised and bloody."

    Far away in the Celestial Plane, two Goddesses laugh.

    Summary

    Fisher has a lot of power when it comes to erasing memories, but they can never erase the bonds they have formed. It takes much more power than Fisher has to do that.
    So?
    No matter how much he hates them Taako can't separate himself from these idiots. Even when the static in his brain makes it hard to look at them sometimes.

    Summary

    “I don’t mind,” she says. “I’m glad to help. I only wish them gone for your sake. I can’t think of the last time you were able to get a full night’s sleep.”
    “I can,” Magnus says, barely awake at this point. “It was after that elf came through on his show. That food made me sleep like a…” he yawns, his eyes slipping closed. “Baby…”
