    Summary

    The first time Daud met Corvo-

    Well, it was the first time, was the thing, though they'd been moving in the same circles for more than a year. Daud hadn't even known his name at the time, though that was as much down to Corvo's paranoia as Daud's disinterest. The Ghost, as they called him, was something of a cipher: a supposedly-sorcerous thief who had no problems targeting Dunwall's wealthiest citizens but otherwise largely kept to himself. Daud had sent Billie off to do the usual vetting, she'd come back with the news that the Ghost belonged to the coven recently settled down at the waterfront, and that had been that.

    Faced with a difficult job, Daud turns to an outside contractor with a reputation for getting things done. His mother told him never to trust a witch, but what about a witch's familiar?

    Summary

    It is said that his mother was a witch from one of the archipelagos off the Pandyssian coast, taken captive by pirates venturing far from the Isles. According to the legend, by the time the ship returned, the captain was dead and the witch controlled the crew, with Daud still a shadow in her belly.
    Rumours and Sightings: Daud

    Haven’t seen you around here before,” the bartender says when Daud slides into a seat at the bar, grimacing and brushing silver dust from his hair and face. “Traveller?”

    Does he look so different? So foreign? The only thing his mother ever told him about the man who sired him was that he was Serkonan, and the duskiness of his skin used to be enough of a giveaway. “Native,” Daud replies shortly. “Returning. It’s been a while.

    Daud returns to the place he once called home.

    Summary

    When the Royal Protector struck his way out of Coldridge Prison, something went wrong in the city of Dunwall.
    It was never a welcoming thing. Now it takes and it takes and it takes.

    Daud meant to find a way out by bringing the bodyguard in, but he might just have dug himself deeper.

    Summary

    Corvo wrenched back from Jessamine. “What day is it?”

    She blinked at him, clearly struggling to catch up with his strange behavior. “The second of the Month of Clans. Corvo, are you feeling alright? What’s wrong?”

    The breath punched out of his lungs. “It’s 1836?” I have many powers and abilities. Corvo’s ears rang with the echo of whale song. It wasn’t actually possible, was it? And yet, was the proof not right there in his arms?

     

    Corvo Attano's world crumbled into ash the day the assassin, Daud, murdered his Empress, and nothing has been right in it since. When the Outsider steps in to change fate for his favored Marked, Corvo will stop at nothing to make sure the second chance isn't wasted. With all his memories from the erased time, Corvo and Jessamine must work in secret with few allies to foil the Spymaster's plot, but that means the infamous Knife of Dunwall must be dealt with. To protect Jessamine, Corvo will do anything--even work alongside the one man he hates above all others.

    additional tags: #MAGICAL hand jobs that. don't involve a real hand

    The only thing that kept Corvo from leaping right out of his chair at the sudden tap against his stomach was the glint of Daud's eyes fixed on him despite his face being turned to the rest of the guests. Corvo squinted back at him. Had he thrown something under the table? Surreptitiously searching his own lap would attract far too much attention while Alden was talking to him.

    Then something closed around his knee and yanked, just lightly enough not to pull him forward on his chair. Oh, the bastard. Daud, as if he could read the realization on Corvo's face, gave him a long, slow blink and smirked predaciously.

    Corvo smiled, and his nose was wrinkling again. “Got sidetracked. I meant to show you something.”
    “Hmm.” Daud looked him over, idly curious. “What kind of thing?”
    “Just this,” Corvo said, reaching behind his neck to the hood of his coat, and pulled a mask up and over his head.
    The top half was a metal visor, jagged edges welded on, goggles making it look like something out of the deeps; but the tears in the cloth under it, stitched in gold, were a mouth wired shut.

    "Corvo please," she says, all in a burst. Her face is dry against his collarbone, but she's trembling, clutching at him. "I don't want to be Empress. I don't want to die."
    The Heart beats heavy and slow to the left of his. He wishes it would speak. That it would tell him what to do, what to say.
    Corvo presses a hand to the back of Emily's head, calluses scraping through her hair, and makes himself take a long, quiet breath.

    Summary

    Your kindness is suspicious for I do not deserve it.

     

    ---

    Corvo hasn’t stopped thinking about the one who killed her. The one who took away his daughter, took over his life, took everything he had. A greedy man he was, the infamous Knife of Dunwall, taking and taking and taking. Come and gone in a flash, the whole city falling apart in his wake, burying Corvo in the rubble. More blood, always more blood. Corvo feels like he'll forever be drowning in it.

    Daud hasn’t stopped thinking about the one who tried to save her. The look on the bodyguard‘s face has been burned into his eyes, following him everywhere he goes. Death clings to him with cold hands: Corvo Attano, the ever-stoic Royal Protector, turned into a vicious animal by Daud’s hand. Daud regrets so much it just might kill him. He can’t wait for that day to come.

    Their paths cross, then intertwine, and nothing remains as it was.
