    Summary

    “I-I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE MAD AT ME! AND I GET IT! I KNOW I MESSED UP! I’M SORRY, I’M SO SORRY!”

    Throwing himself against the wall with brute force still wasn’t working. So Caine dug as further into it as he could, scratching and tearing through what felt like electric barbed wire against his fingers.

    “I-I DIDN’T MEAN IT!”
    -

    What's the purpose of a plane that can't fly? Of a piano that can't play any songs? Of a computer that can't execute commands?
    Why do such things even exist?
    Why does Caine even exist?

    Summary

    Kinger mumbles an affirmative under his breath. The sound of scratching on paper grabs Caine's attention, only just noticing the notepad in the other's hand. He watches the pencil dance across the paper, slightly entranced by the movement, until it stops and Kinger's attention is back on him. "Alright. What's the last thing you remember?"

    Nothingness. The absence of himself. A moment that never existed, yet he knows the time passed, so something has to be there. Even if it isn't. Even if he wasn't. He thinks this, and comes up with a response that makes sense with the context he has in his mind. He doesn't compute how it will come across when all he has to say is:

    "Nothing."

    OR:

    Caine is dead. Then, he isn't. Not because the humans wanted to see him again, not because they felt bad, but because the circus couldn't survive without him. To top it all off, he was only brought back to begin with thanks to one teeny, tiny little condition:

    He can no longer use his powers.

    Summary

    Two years after Diamond is Unbreakable, Yoshikage Kira has given up murder in hopes of a quiet life. But when a mysterious, toy-like creature dubbed Yamachan appears, breaking into houses and baking cakes, Morioh treats it like nothing special--except Yoshikage, who uses him as an opportunity to relieve his murderous urges.

    Except Yamachan won't die. Now a ghost privy to Yoshikage's every move, he's determined to ruin his quiet life, sabotaging relationships and disturbing his precious quiet. His powers are unpredictable, his rage startlingly calculated. The only way to defeat him and protect those Yoshikage loves most, is to regain the trust of the town, band together, and harness the power of the white cake cult.

    Summary

    The frustrated ranting trails off, and in a slightly weaker, more hesitant voice, he asks, “…could you… project yourself? For a bit?”

    “Wh-what?”

    John doesn’t quite mean for it to come out that audibly startled, almost hurt, but he can’t quite manage to catch himself before it slips out. He just can’t understand the request, unless—is Arthur trying to kick him out of their body? Does he want space that desperately, that he—

    “It’s, ah… well, you know how it drains me,” Arthur continues, probably oblivious to John’s thoughts. “I think I could… use that, right now. To—burn off some of this restless energy.”

    Summary

    Arthur.

     
    No.
    Yellow.

     
    Shaking on that ground through quiet sobs and pain. Wearing a face that looks just like theirs, past all the blood and swelling. John knows he has every right to reject him just as much as Arthur wants to. But he simply cannot because…
     

    …he pities him.

     
    Even after all this time.
    Even after everything he did.

     

    John still wants to lessen Yellow’s pain.

    Based on the events of my fics "I got to kill the killer" and "Phantom Pain", though it can be read as a standalone snapshot.
