Summary
After the plateau, Kayne makes a different deal with Arthur. He'll return John to him, his John, just as they were before... but first, Arthur must find a way to leave the borders of Addison. Alone.
It proves harder than he expected—but to get his friend back where he belongs? There's nothing he wouldn't do. Nothing he wouldn't suffer, wouldn't sacrifice.
He'll find a way through. What comes afterwards doesn't matter.

Summary
And that was how Arthur found himself running through the woods like a madman, sweat beading on his face and extremities freezing, intermittently tripping over obstacles invisible through the blanket of snow, in a futile attempt to escape a monster that was built for this environment. He doesn’t even know precisely what it is—John hasn’t been able to get a good look at the details, on account of, you know, the running—but the few close brushes they’ve had so far have been more than enough to impress upon him its size and its speed.

Summary
He can’t do this anymore. He doesn’t even know how to articulate what this is—but that does nothing to dampen the inescapable insistence, deep in his core, that he cannot put up with it for a moment longer. Whatever the price of freedom, he is ready to pay it.
So he barricades his door, and sits down against the wall, and does his best to brace himself.
Because here’s the thing: Hastur chose him for his music. Ergo, no more music—no more of Hastur’s attentions.
He takes his pinky between his teeth.

Summary
“He has lost a great deal of blood. And lacks the means to replenish it. More time in this state will not restore him, it will diminish him further.”
“What means–?”
“Food,” comes Arthur’s voice, raspy and tired, making John jolt in surprise—he’d nearly forgotten he was still conscious. “And water.”

“No. No, this creature was one of the ones I read about in the bestiary, and…” he swallows hard. “I’m so sorry, Arthur, but the arm has to come off. That’s the only way.”

Summary
Arthur’s recovery isn’t instant, when he stops projecting. It takes him a moment to collect himself. John feels it, too. The unfamiliar weakness in his borrowed limbs when he resettles into them. The drain on them both when their tether is stretched too thin.
But surely, once they separate fully, it’ll be different. Right?

Summary
When the King ripped John out of Arthur’s head, something was left behind. A connection, something that makes him tethered to the King’s will.
It’s torture for the both of them. For Arthur, a simple punishment for defying the King’s will for so long—and John, to wear him down, until surrender seems like a mercy.

Summary
The frustrated ranting trails off, and in a slightly weaker, more hesitant voice, he asks, “…could you… project yourself? For a bit?”
“Wh-what?”
John doesn’t quite mean for it to come out that audibly startled, almost hurt, but he can’t quite manage to catch himself before it slips out. He just can’t understand the request, unless—is Arthur trying to kick him out of their body? Does he want space that desperately, that he—
“It’s, ah… well, you know how it drains me,” Arthur continues, probably oblivious to John’s thoughts. “I think I could… use that, right now. To—burn off some of this restless energy.”
