    Summary

    You work a clerical 9 to 5 desk job that keeps the rent paid and your's and your cat's stomachs full. But you rarely deviate from the schedule that was predetermined for you since you'd graduated from college. You don't have much of a social life, nevermind thinking about love, but ever since your co-worker introduced you to visual novels, you haven't been the same since. Recently, she's been raving on and on about this new game she's been playing, and you finally download it to see what all the hype is about. Little did you know that this decision would change your life forever.

    Summary

    “Your bedside manner,” he started, his tongue appearing to swipe across his dry lips. “It’s good.”

    “I’ve wondered what would get you to talk less. Mortal wounds. Noted.”

    Summary

    When you left the Wet Wick late at night to get a snack from a street vendor, you didn’t expect anything dangerous to happen. Falling victim to a Soulless attack, you collapsed in the alley and waited for death.

    By the time Ais came to your rescue, it seemed too late.

    “Looks superficial,” he said with a shrug, “but I guess I’ll bring you to Kuras anyway.”

    Summary

    Something touches my shoulder and I reflexively swing my hand in the vague direction, potato still clutched tight. It's not connected yet. I realise distantly that that's good, could've caused a nasty chain reactions with the rest of the setup.
    I'm not moving anymore, someone caught my wrist. I refocus my vision. And stare at Leanders face, his wide eyed expression, the flat end of a zink nail only centimeters away from it.
    Mhins hold eases up when I pull against their restraint and I slowly set the potato down. I try to say something, but I feel more than hear the stuttering weeze I release instead. It hurts, now that I've noticed it. Like a cramp. It's loud, it must be.
    So why am I not hearing it? Shouldn't I hear it? The ... The Wet Wick is full of people, they're louder. That's why I'm not hearing it.

    But I'm not hearing that either.

    Oh.

    Summary

    Leander taps his thumb against his glass, staring into the amber liquid. “A rare catch requires good bait, timing, and most of all: patience,” he murmurs.

    Thinking of you in his rooms: naked, those long limbs and lithe muscles submerged beneath the hot water, your hands stroking his soap along your skin, your hair wet and draped around your shoulders, clean and soft and smelling of his herbs and oils…

    He’s an excellent fisherman, but at this moment, he finds his patience tested to the limits.

     

    (you get a little dirty on a job, and leander's completely normal about you bathing in his room)

    Summary

    The Wick is especially loud today but not because of the amount of people. It was always full to the brim, flooded with crowds out the sidewalk.

    No, it's the company.

    And it's not like Leander is not fun, or nice to you, it's just.

    You were expecting someone. And he's just not here.

    Summary

    You come home after a long, long day of work to find a locked door and no key. You'd go to Leander... but it seems like he'd enjoy that far too much. Maybe Kuras will take pity on you?

    Summary

    leander wasn't pouting. no, really, he wasn't! he's not mad at all that nielle forgot his birthday. not that he mentions it a lot, if at all, and nielle is busy with her own things now. he's not mad, and he's surely not sad! not at all!

    ... okay maybe he's pouting about it. but just a little.

    Summary

    "Cursed in power," the mage had said, "and in countenance."

    Chancing upon the compact mirror left unattended by one of the believers, for the first time, you saw your face: violet eyes widened, thick black hair disheveled from your braid... And below that, the horror of your curse, one that hadn't stopped at your hands and arms.

    Summary

    “You’ve  been here a lot this week.” There’s no real weight to your words, but he still smirks and looks away. there's the faint trace of pink on the tip of his ears, or so you think.

    It might be the fever, too: it’s been coming and going.

    And so has he, always in the right place and the right time.

    “Seemed like the best plan. Already tired of me?” He grins as if he knew better.
