    Summary

    “Rapture,” Robert says. “Like… The drug from the Spider-Man comics?”

    “I don’t know, do I look like a fucking nerd to you?”

    --

    More than a year after the defeat of Shroud, a new villain has officially entered the chat, and she's brought something truly heinous to the table. She's got revenge on her mind and dreams of a utopian Los Angeles she's willing to level the city for. Her weapon of choice is... let's say, unique. Z-Team's year of laid back success is at an end and the era of too many struggles to pick from has arrived. Suspicions of a mole in SDN, a dubious substance, both deadly and alluring for sale on the streets, corporate meddling threatening to tear the team apart, cabin fever induced by wood panels and popcorn ceilings and steel walls... The list goes on.

    Forced into a close quarters lockdown amidst the growing crisis, Robert and Chad are no longer able to ignore the tension that's lingered between them. Unfortunately for everyone around them, they're also too maladjusted to address that tension like normal people. Investigating the new Big Bad in town is about to get weird.

    If only having sex could make things simpler, instead of so much worse.

    Summary

    Oh, how much can change in four months.

    There, bent over Caterina’s bedside, a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles slipping down the bridge of his nose, is Emmrich. He looks up at the sound of the door, those bright hazel eyes reflecting nearby candlelight. Surprise widens his gaze, but in an instant, as recognition takes hold, every feature softens. He smiles for Lucanis and it’s so good to see that Lucanis’ knees grow watery beneath his weight, threatening to give out entirely. He could weep for relief at the sight. That near-need to collapse morphs quickly into something else as Lucanis’ leg muscles twitch, convulsing with a sudden urge to run toward Emmrich, a jerky start and stop motion, a single, stumbling step. His heart leaps and Lucanis suddenly can’t breathe.

    “Is everything alright?” Emmrich asks, as if it shouldn’t be completely obvious why Lucanis’ mind stopped working properly about fifteen seconds prior...

    Summary

    Death, Emmrich tells him, is his greatest fear. But there’s an elegance in it. A beauty that cannot be duplicated by anything else, save for the soundness of sleep. The closest to death they can ever come without straying into true danger. The stillness, the heaviness, of deep, dreamless sleep is like a little death, but a different one than the first he’d shared with Lucanis.

    Summary

    "Ah—perhaps the– Bedroom?"

    "No."

    No? Emmrich's confusion must read on his face because Lucanis launches into a very irritable, but simple explanation, all his frustration bleeding into his expression and tone. Urgency overrules everything else.

    "If I lay down in that bed I'm going to pass out. Take me over the kitchen table."

    Summary

    That he feels this way is nothing new. He’s always wanted. He’s found ways to stifle it in the past, but he’s out of practice. A few years alone, slipping into the dismal acceptance that he’d likely never experience some great love or have a person to call his own, had allowed the beast to sleep.

    But it’s awake now. It begs him to look and torment himself as Lucanis and Neve look at one another and make flippant comments that toe the line of flirtatiousness.

    Summary

    Lucanis doesn’t hesitate. He springs into motion as panic is overridden by instinct. Poison. What kind? What symptoms? How did this happen? How could Rook have left Emmrich vulnerable enough to be poisoned? He doesn’t wait for Rook or Harding to follow, singularly focused on the path he takes across the courtyard, taking the steps two at a time, breath coming harder as his light jog becomes an outright sprint through the library doors. Up the stairs, down the hall, through the door.

    Summary

    The mattress beneath him is firm but not the hard and unforgiving sling of a threadbare pad on a cot. Even without opening his eyes, Lucanis knows he’s not where he’s supposed to be.

    Thus, the panic that grips him sees him shooting up from the bedding with a sharp inhale, from barely conscious to fully alert in the span of a heartbeat. He’s upright, on his knees on the bed, hands held up to defend himself while he wobbles to maintain his balance, eyes wildly darting to take in his surroundings. Shelves upon shelves of books, a spiral staircase beyond the view of a gauzy canopy hanging around a four-poster bed. A balcony that spills bright, forever sunset (or is it sunrise?) across the floor, through the gaps, lighting his surroundings.

    Most notably, the face of a very startled necromancer at the landing.

    Emmrich?

    He’s… In Emmrich’s room?

    Summary

    The air around them is crisp, but the heat of the hot spring is warm. In the pale moonlight, surrounded by motes of glimmering magic, the snow shines, reflecting and glittering like fallen stars piled all around. For all that was lost in the fight against the Evanuris, all that was suffered to save the world as they know it, months later, that a moment as perfect as this one can exist at all is a miracle. Wintersend is just around the corner, and Lucanis feels content, his gift having come early when offered an invitation to Treviso, to enjoy a break from his classes and savor a little indulgence the Trevisan way.

    Summary

    Apparently, Emmrich also likes telling him ‘no’ until Lucanis is trembling.

    Emmrich dares to crack his eyes open and look beyond the heavy velvet curtains of his four poster, so generously provided by the Lighthouse in a moment of need.

    Summary

    Jotaro’s first mistake was assuming that the case delivered to him by the Foundation two weeks ago was going to be a milk run. He and Josuke were in the area for unrelated family reasons already, so going around New York to figure out who was bringing comic book characters to life and wreaking havoc across the boroughs was no huge imposition.

    His second mistake was not looking more intently into said comic books. If he had, he’d have known what kind of stupid, world ending bullshit was actually happening around him.

    Inter-dimensional travel is pseudoscience. It’s theoretical. One of many possible theories about space-time... So, imagine Jotaro’s surprise when said pseudoscience becomes real actual life-threatening levels of danger science for him specifically.

    While being thrown out of a helicopter.

    The indignity of this incident is not something he’s eager to recount to anyone and will likely go down in infamy as one of his most hilariously total losses in a fight he’s ever experienced. And while hurtling through the sky toward a whole lot of concrete is pretty damn terrifying all on its own, hurtling through the vacuum of space-time is even fucking worse.

    Summary

    In the fleeting moments when he looks back Jotaro wonders, if he’d ever taken an interest in anything Sadao ever pushed him to do, then maybe he wouldn’t have ended up at that party. Maybe he wouldn’t have met Tomoko. Maybe there wouldn’t be a kid in danger, bearing a Joestar birthmark who probably thinks his father doesn’t give two shits about him when that couldn't be further from the truth.

     

    Jotaro has always cared but it never really felt like the kind of thing that would do anyone any good to try and show. To try and do something with the thoughts of loss and longing for a life he didn't lead and a family he didn't have had just sounded like a selfish course to take. He cared so damn much that when everyone told him he was better off leaving well enough alone, he’d agreed. He didn’t want his son to have anything less than a good life and…

     

    What good would a sixteen year old kid have been to Tomoko, let alone a baby?

    Summary

    Jotaro will never forget that fleeting encounter when Uncle Josuke turned up for the first time. He'd seemed restless, nervous, but kind and nurturing for a boy of only twenty years old. Even at the tender age of eight, Jotaro had felt drawn to him. Jotaro didn’t understand at the time, just why Josuke was so separated from the family, treated like some delicate secret that had to be kept at all costs, but the more he grew, the more he realized that Josuke was special. Josuke was a light. Warm, but ephemeral. As a child, he merely wanted to see Josuke more.

    But he's not a child anymore, and Jotaro's innocent feelings of attachment have become something more. Too bad Josuke is so damn unreachable, buried in a failing marriage, attending school, trying to raise a child...

    When Josuke reaches out after a long period of silence and asks Jotaro for help on a case, Jotaro takes a chance. He tells himself he just wants to help out, but deep in the darkest corners of his heart the festering need to have Josuke close at his side says something different. Can Jotaro bury his feelings long enough to catch a serial killer, or will they overwhelm him and drive Josuke away for good?

    Summary

    Jotaro is a priest who is doing his best to help raise his teenage daughter who he had out of wedlock just before he dedicated his life to the church. Jolyne is spirited and challenging, but Jotaro is doing everything he can to give her a good life, to make up for the time he wasn’t there. If there is something Jotaro can give her, he generally gives it. Up to and including tickets to a concert for a band called DieMend. They're loud, they're angry, they’re angsty, and their lead singer, Josuke Higashikata, is a self proclaimed musical demon. He's fashionable, attractive, plays multiple instruments, sings, and steals the hearts of teenagers everywhere. What Jotaro is not expecting is for a single glimpse of this singer performing to steal some part of his heart, too. Josuke sparks something in Jotaro that feels familiar, like someone's just walked over his grave, and it leads him down a path of self discovery that gives him insight into just how little he knows about Heaven, and how much he wants to know about the sins of the flesh, past, present, and future.

    Summary

    If Jotaro had a nickel for every time his life got turned upside down by a violent crime he'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

     

    Following an unfortunate incident that outs Jotaro as an Omega to his entire school, and then some, he is sent away to a boarding school in another country where Disclosure of your secondary gender is strictly forbidden. It's supposed to be a fresh start, a place where he can focus on his schooling and his future instead of worrying about the stereotypical expectations he always faces. And, of course, he'll finally be reunited with his childhood friend and (technically) uncle Josuke for the first time in eleven years.

    That's all great in theory but the reality is this: No one follows the rules, everyone thinks he's an Alpha, someone has read his future and it's looking weird at best, Josuke is a shameless knot-chaser, and Jotaro can't shake this strange feeling in his chest. Is it jealousy? Jotaro can barely take the stress.

    And then the first dead body turns up two weeks before midterms...
