    Summary

    The Emeritus brothers are dead, and Cardinal Copia has been installed as the new front man of Ghost.

    The Lights, the fans screaming and singing along, the way the tension between himself and ghouls seems to melt away. Every night it's like he's stepping from one world to another. One where he is a better version of himself. Confident, likeable, maybe even a little bit sexy. When on stage there is some part of Copia, buried deep and long ignored, that finally feels at home. Like he is no longer alone.

    But eventually the ritual ends. Final bows are done and he must leave the stage. Re-enter reality. Where nothing is simple and those in power have their own plans for the Ghost Project. To whom Copia is little more than a pawn, to be moved across the board as they see fit. He can be the puppet, or he can take the more difficult path and become the Papa he was meant to be.

    Summary

    Leading the new era of the Ghost project is none other than the Secretary of the Treasury, Cardinal Copia.

    It's not a task given to him so willingly.

    Sister smiles and carefully seats herself in the chair, reaching out and patting Copia on the back of the hand for a moment, “Cardinal,” she greets him, watching as he moves around the desk to take a seat in his chair again. “I do hope you’re not too irritated at Papa,” she starts, “He’s just a little...disgruntled right now.”

    Copia fixes a somewhat professional smile on his face, clasping both hands in front of him on the desk, “I am not of the bloodline, yes? He’s unhappy about that. I think I would be unhappy about it too, if I were him. I know you said this was what the church needs, but maybe perhaps—”

    Summary

    It had started off small. Aurora would waltz over to Swiss’s stage, slow and purposeful, and they’d sing into the same microphone. The multi ghoul evidently enjoyed it, dancing along with her and smiling as she shimmied at him playfully. Dew had watched them out of the corner of his eye, something ugly and unknown bubbling up in the pit of his stomach. He tried to focus all his energy on playing, strumming on the strings like his life depended on it.

    And when that wasn’t enough, he turned to the crowd in front of him, drowning himself in their screams of excitement and eating up their praise.

    Swiss was his own person, he’d reminded himself after every ritual, trying to stomp out the foreign emotions simmering under his skin. He didn’t belong to Dew— or anyone else— for that matter. Whatever he wanted to do with the other ghouls was none of Dew’s business.

    That didn’t stop it from hurting, every time he saw Aurora walk away from her microphone, her destination evident.
