    Summary

    "That was close," he said quietly. You could feel the vibration of his words through his chest, the low rumble sending awareness skittering across your nerves.

    You tilted your face up, studying his expression in the dim light filtering from the street.

    His pupils had blown wide, leaving only a thin ring of blue, and suddenly you couldn’t look away.

    You built your career keeping dangerous Praedators off the streets. As the youngest captain of the LCBI's most successful enforcement unit, you're very good at your job. When the unit's increased workload forces you to hire an assistant, you expect competent filing and decent coffee. Xavier Shen, an unremarkable astronomy graduate desperate for work, delivers. He's quiet and reliable, exactly what you need.

    But when a dangerous case lands on your desk and powerful interests offer assistance with hidden costs, you discover that your reluctant new partnership with EVER Corp isn't what it seems.

    ...Neither is Xavier.

    [Inspired by Xavier's Catch-22 Deluded Fiction card]

    Summary

    “What are you upset about?”

    “I’m not… upset. Just in my own head a little, I guess.”

    “Okay. What are you… ‘in your own head’ about?”

    You chew your lip. “I just think sometimes I wish I knew you better. That’s all. I mean, better than when we work together, or take the subway together, or get hotpot together. You know?”

    ———

    Or: Three times Xavier should have kissed you, and one time he does.

    Summary

    You were a wholesome man, honest. And a patient one, too! You were willing to wait as long as it took for Siffrin to give you his answer after your whirlwind of a confession. So, you really think you could be forgiven for also falling for the mirror image of them that appears in your dreams.

    Summary

    There's an island north of Vaugarde. You were never able to remember its name. So why now? Why after all this time?

    It's so close. You can see it now.

    You want to go home.
