    It's a holdover from his old body, his old identity. Sometimes his blunt little human teeth ache to bite. To rend, to tear into flesh and set his jaw and just rip.

    He expected the body would rot. It seemed likely that the King would let him disintegrate for as long as possible, to punish him.

    Summary

    “I used to be married,” Arthur says, almost to himself. “I used to have a wife. And now — what I have is a being living inside me who hates me, one I can’t even t—“

    He cuts himself off with a sharp breath.

    John’s not quite sure what he means by most of this. Arthur doesn’t sound bitter. He sounds… wondering, as if he’s turning something over. But it still rankles John, how easy it is for Arthur to assume John’s own feelings. It would be simpler, maybe, for both of them, if Arthur was right about the way John feels about him. He isn’t.

    After John convinces Arthur to leave Addison, they do — eventually — talk about things.

    Summary

    Following a deal with Kayne, John and Arthur are able to resume a somewhat normal life together, separated into their own bodies at last in the picturesque seaside town of Kingsport. But when a mystery lands on their doorstep promising the funds they need for a better life, things quickly spiral out of control. Will they solve the case? Or will the revelations it brings tear them asunder... For good?

     

    This started as a collection of vignettes and one shots; and I found a plot.

    Summary

    Eugene wakes.

    A dark, shifting figure looms over his bed. Its contours are hazy, black shapes swirling around them. Slithering. The stuff of nightmares.

    He smiles. Lifts the covers.

    He opens his arms and legs and accepts his husband between them.

    Summary

    "What did you draw?" Arthur asks, his voice simultaneously barely audible and unbearably loud in the silence of their flat. For a moment John considers lying again but this has been going on for too long and in his drawing Arthur is smiling. He isn't smiling right now though, he knows that. You, John replies. I drew you.

    Another long moment of silence and John can see Arthur's fingers briefly wandering down the drawing, almost like he's trying to see it through touch alone. "Why?" he then asks and it's the one question John has no answer to, not even the truth.

    (With some free time on his hands after they return to Arkham, John starts drawing. Soon however he finds himself with one particular muse.)

    Summary

    In quiet halls of no repute,
    A heart, detached and destitute,
    Hides from view and grasping hand,
    Far from lost Carcosa.

    The deed is done, the two are separated once more, and Arthur wants to know what exactly he's been harbouring this entire time. PWP this was eating my brain like a worm.
