    Summary

    “I could try to find someone to pretend to date you,” she said almost flippantly. “It sounds terrible, but it can’t be worse than what Dad has you doing.”

    ———

    Gepard is constantly being set up on blind dates by his father, in the hopes of getting an heir. Gepard is losing sleep over it, so Serval has the “perfect” solution: fake dating. The only problem is, her idea of the perfect fake date is Sampo Koski.

    Joy.

    Can Gepard make it out of this without catching feelings? And why does Sampo seem to be hiding something…?

    Summary

    This is part one of a series of fics that explore Dottore as a character. It's not interested in a shallow reading of him as a supervillain, but also not meant to excuse any of his later wrongdoings. It's a psychological exploration of how any man could become what he is today. This is part one of a three-part series that explores his early childhood, part two is him as a teenaged academic that includes the Soreh incident and part three is him as a young adult and includes the hospital and his expulsion.
    It's interspersed with reflections of an adult Dottore looking back on his life. As he ages, you'll feel the gap between 'The Doctor', looking back, and 'Zandik' looking forward, get smaller and smaller.

    Summary

    The room is too bright.

    It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.

    It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.

    With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

    Summary

    The cruelest thing about the Nameless was that they made it so easy to pretend that Sunday belonged. They fed that greedy, stupid, childish thing that cried out from within him, tossing enough scraps of amity for him to piece them together into something that felt like home. The curtains only closed when Sunday lay awake at night and stared at the ceiling of the bedroom that wasn’t really his, and he remembered that it started like this and could only end like this: with him, alone in the dark.

    Sunday is found by the Astral Express Crew after fleeing Penacony. He accepts their offer to join, and realizes that

    a. fitting into this tight-knit group is likely impossible
    b. trouble finds the Trailblazers no matter where they go.

    or, the chronicle of the Astral Express trying, failing, and trying again to fit Sunday into their family.

    Russian translation (courtesy of the lovely K_A_M_A) can be found here!
