    Summary

    And you’ll never see the reasons I had
    For keeping my claws away when they were close enough to hurt you
    I am selfish, I am broken, I am cruel
    I am all the things they might have said to you
    - Never Love an Anchor by The Crane Wives

    OR

    They love each other.

    Summary

    Silversvale.
    The name of the town conjured several illusions. A haven, a criminal cesspool, a waypoint, a backwater...but Impulse had been there, once or twice, and he thought the best word to describe it was pragmatic. It did away with a lot of what the rest of the continent saw as so commonplace. Not so much as to claim some brandishing flag of equality but...around here, was even was that? It's not like he cared. He was searching for those stone brick walls on the horizon for one reason, and one reason only..
    Tango. His pyre brother. The one he was supposed to have protected all those years ago. Ten long years ago.
    For Tango, well...he's just here with Zed because Zed said so, and wherever the master-smith went, so did he. It had been a peaceful existence, by comparison to his previous decade here on the old continent, where ever grain of sand held it's own kind of cruelty. Zed was seeking work. Skizz was seeking opportunity.
    If any of the above was actually in Silversvale...well that remained to be seen.

    {In which Impulse takes a swing, Skizz takes a shot, Zed takes a hit, and Tango takes things exactly as they've always been.}

    Summary

    It was all quiet around the campfire. Martyn was mentally rehearsing some words he’d been thinking to himself for the past hour they’d been headed through the trees in near silence. Between Ren dragging him along, and Scott and the avian trailing behind them, they weren’t exactly in a social mood as they’d been fleeing that encounter with the paladins.

    Which, all things considered, had gone about as well as they probably could’ve hoped. But it had also left him with this strange gathering. A runaway mer and avian could be a huge liability...or an asset, depending on how you spun it. Martyn was typically good at spin-doctoring, even in his own head. There was so much more to deal with, though.

    Ren. Ren, Ren, Ren...Ren's smile, Ren's eyes, Ren's barely-there chuckle that, Martyn might be going crazy, but it sounded a touch louder, went on for a bit longer, than last time. A mer with an attitude, an overprotective avian, and...Ren. All of it was a lot...but Martyn didn't think he could claim they were unbearable.

    {In which Ren is feeling light, Martyn is feeling light-headed, Jimmy is playing a connections game, and Scott forgot to mention that he's been in his underclothes this entire time.}

    Summary

    Martyn didn’t want to imagine it.
    The thought that he might, in any small way, see Ren in some fashion similar to the people who’d left those scars made his stomach churn. He was grappling with it on the daily, and it had only been a little over a week since that night at the inn where he'd helped the dog hybrid wash his hair. Seen him unwind just barely, release so much of the tension he seemed to carry, and yet again, the witch thought there had to be something that he was missing here.
    Ren was...gorgeous. He must have suffered so much before because of that simple fact. Martyn couldn't claim he understood it, yet he wished to fix it, but what sort of a hypocrite was he? After all, he was seeing Ren, and seeing Ren in such ways, knowing there was a contract floating somewhere in his inventory that meant he could do anything he wanted...it was all just too much to bear.
    And Martyn couldn't relate...he'd never have wished too. Stars above or earth below had decided he would be made to see things from Ren's perspective, anyway.

    {In which Ren closes his eyes, Martyn sees the other side of the coin, and the forest hides dangers just within the shadow of the trees.}

    Summary

    A street rat and an orphan, Martyn had been taken in by a coven of witches in the royal capital. They raised him, and he could probably make himself a wealthy man within the span of a few years if he stayed here, but even still, all he wanted was to get out of the city.

    Then he could finally be alone. No longer having to dial his social skills up to 11 day in and day out as he frantically ran the crowded front for his teachers famous apothecary. He's finally proven himself worthy of being a full-fledged witch, earned his emblem, and now it's time for the journey to a remote village that's been seeking a witch of their own for a long time. Open his own apothecary and pass the days peacefully without the stress of the city's roar all around. Unfortunately, the roads are treacherous, and a young beautiful witch traveling alone was a coveted prize. Martyn has a plan, though.
    Shame plans never turn out how they're supposed to.

    {In which Martyn wants to be left alone, Ren can't decide which mask he needs to wear, they're no strangers to the cruelty of the world, and this is the first day of something neither could have dared to hope for.}
