    Summary

    Aura lands the job of her dreams and moves her family out to LA, but her life is still a mess. Her brother is a neurotic closet-case and their mother's health is declining; plus her coworker Metis is scrambling to keep their department from getting the axe while taking care of a daughter who is... complicated. As usual, it's Aura's job to fix everything.

    And then UR-1 happens.

    This is how Aura met Metis, how they saved each other, and how it all fell apart.

    Summary

    Before he can stop himself, he picks up the phone. Every ring seems to last for eternity. Please, he thinks, be there, pick up, don’t be dead, don’t be gone…

    “Viktor?”

    His heart jumps. Silco’s voice is muffled, sleep-thick, but oh so achingly familiar. He had not realised until now just how much he missed it.

    “You do realise it is 2 o’clock in the morning?”

    He tries to speak but no words come out. The guilt, perhaps, has stolen them.

    “Has something happened?”

    “Papa,” he finally whispers. “Papa. Papa.” And then all of a sudden he is bawling his eyes out, horrible, heaving gasps and sobs torn from his throat, wracking his thin frame, and distantly he is embarrassed, but he cannot seem to make himself stop.

    Worn down by the crushing weight of (not actually) unrequited love, workplace disputes, past trauma, and the existential dread that comes with being an overachiever in your twenties, Viktor finally breaks. Papa Silco comes to pick up the pieces.

    Returning to his childhood home in Zaun for a long-overdue rest, Viktor must reckon with his past, his future, and the terrifying prospect of allowing himself to be loved and cared for.

    Summary

    They call it “The Rally.” One last moment of clarity before the end.

    Jayce knows it’s begun when he stumbles into the kitchen and finds Viktor already there, upright and alert, pouring milk into his mug.

    Viktor, for the first time in weeks, is using his rollator. Not just leaning on it, but moving confidently. It's a rare enough sight that Jayce stops short in the doorway and rubs his eyes to make sure he isn’t imagining this.

    Or

    In the days leading up to Viktor’s death, Jayce does what he can with the time they’re given.

    Summary

    He pictures the funeral sometimes.

    He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.

    He pictures swallowing them himself.

     

    Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.
