    Summary

    Barry doesn’t turn to look, doesn’t even glance over his shoulder; his face creases with a stern sort of desperation, and he stares Jill down from the business end of his own Colt Anaconda, tense. “No time to talk! Jill, hand me my gun!”

    She… she hesitates. The thing that used to be Lisa Trevor staggers closer, chains dragging across hard stone like nails on a chalkboard.

    This isn’t the first time Eddie has been thrown into the front unceremoniously during Volt’s shift, and with the way they’re going - with how bad it’s been lately - he sincerely doubts it’ll be the last.

    Summary

    The Polle robots never lasted a whole trip; somebody always, always, got sick of the sight of them.

    Curly’s there when they start dragging it out, a fresh new bot already waiting by the door. “Poor sod,” he mutters, resisting the sudden, juvenile urge to poke at its mechanical corpse with the toe of his boots.

    Swansea’s laugh sounds more like a cough at this point, tobacco-raspy and time-worn. “It’ll be us next, Captain. Mark my words. Drag us out the door and bring in somethin’ shinier.”

    Summary

    Between running from Hook Horrors and trying to find out which of the Underdark’s fungi are edible (or at least close enough to it for Gale to work around), it’s no surprise Astarion hadn’t found the time to scavenge for bergamot and rosemary and mix up more of the sweet, heavy scent Tav had come to associate with him.

    Summary

    Chucky jolts, shoulders tensing against her chest. Golden rays of sunlight find their way to him, too, and catch on the soft brown edges of old scars lining his lips as he turns to scowl blearily at her. "Jesus, Tiff," his voice is even rougher than normal, thickened by sleep, "shave your fucking legs, you could kill a man with those things. It's like goddamn barbed wire."

    Summary

    This time, when John finds Charlie in his house, in his face, wearing his dressing gown, he doesn't shout. She doesn't know why he keeps clean mugs at home when they both know he spends most mornings on the Waverider nowadays, but she watches him take out a second mug for her as the tea brews, and John has decent taste in tea brands so she can't bring herself to tease him.

    Summary

    It’s Karlach’s fault that they’re sleeping under a bridge tonight. They were so close - close enough for the cobbles under her feet to feel like home, close enough for Halsin to begin curling in on himself uncomfortably as though being a smaller druid would somehow save him from the suffocating rigidity of civilisation - and then she’d freaked, the prospect of entering the city proper after a decade of dreaming about it suddenly so daunting she could scarcely breathe, engine boiling away in her chest.

    It’s a testament to how miserable she must seem that she hears Astarion coming, the heels of his freshly-pilfered boots tapping gently against the cobblestone in a manner he’d usually never allow, thief that he is.

    Summary

    Todd isn't much of an actor. That's how he knows it's real. As he collapses back onto his mattress - stars in his eyes, catching his breath - he knows that he could never fake this.

    Summary

    he knows anger, when he feels it. anger is comfortable, all-encompassing - when the unfamiliar feeling in his chest gets too much for him to bear, he finds the fastest way to turn it into anger, and trusts that his siblings will read the truth in the lines of his face, in the morse code of blood speckled across his knuckles.

    this feeling, however, never stays in his chest. it burns and boils and slams down into his stomach, all heavy anvils and hard edges, low growls and white-hot terror, tense as a bow string. it takes his heart down with it - and his lungs, after that - and once his chest is hollow, it reaches up and claws through his throat instead, and he doesn't realise he's snarling until that's empty too.

    (or: raphael has pathological demand avoidance - even the smallest and most reasonable of requests feels like a threat to his life.)
