    Summary

    Gillion's eyes begin to flutter closed, his breaths shorter and shallower and slower until they– they just stop. Nothing moves beneath Chip's trembling hands, no one stirs awake at the ragged tear of Chip's voice, and it's all his fault.

    And all around him, smoke-sodden laughter shakes the walls, the floor, ringing again and again and again–

    And then Chip gasps awake, the cry of Gillion's name still on his lips, hands still shaking, shaking, someone shaking him.

    "It's alright, I'm here to– to. To vanquish."

    It's Gillion. Gillion's dead on the floor, hooked through the chest and stained bloody. Gillion's right here, in front of him, eyes wide and concerned. Water drips down his chin, landing on Chip's cheek.

    OR: Chip startles awake from a nightmare. Gillion helps.

    Summary

    “Niklaus wasted his favor.” Gillion said dully. “Because if it happened again, if I had to do it all over, I’d do the same thing.”
    “What was the choice, Gil?” Chip asked, urgency and dread pouring into his voice, pulling it down. “Why did you look at me?”

    *****

    Gillion gave up everything for Chip. He and Chip talk about it.

    Summary

    “Chip!” He let out one last time, this time more a wail than a yell as his knees buckled with the rocking of the deck.
    “...Here.” Chip’s voice found him, weak and barely audible. But there nonetheless.
    It came from below, and Gil looked down to see his co-captain dangling from the side of the hull, a small dagger jammed into the wood. He was completely drenched from head to toe, more than the rain could ever manage, and he was trembling violently.
    But he was there, he was alive.
    Gillion sighed. His chest filled with a lightness he was beginning to grow familiar with, but couldn’t quite name. As he stared at Chip, it festered inside him, and in the middle of the raging midnight storm, Gillion Tidestrider grinned like an idiot.

    Summary

    as soon as he pulled on his pants, and buckled his belt around his waist, chip opened the door, expecting his jacket to be on the ground, forgotten by chip's wandering hand.

    instead, it was nowhere to be found, and chip stepped out of the bathroom, looking around. it couldnt've walked off by itself, clothes didn't fuckin' do that.

    hearing a snicker, he turned, and standing there near the stairs, wearing chip's own coat and hat, stood gillion, a pleased look on his face.

    Summary

    The light breeze blew his long, green curls around, framing his face delightfully and, oh, right. Gillion. Chip groaned, thumping his forehead against the railing of the crow’s nest. It was a beautiful, sunny day with warm weather and fluffy white clouds, but Chip still felt nauseous. He recalled the memory– rather, the dream– from the night prior, turning it over in his head like a marble in his hand.

    It had felt off-puttingly real, not unlike his nightmares from just a few months ago in the matter of its eerie authenticity, but it wasn’t exactly unpleasant. Surprising, sure, but not particularly unwelcome. And that was what Chip was struggling with.

    or,

    Chip begins to have some not-so-platonic dreams about his co-captain, and he suffers the consequences.
