    Summary

    Right now all John could think about was the pain in his jaw, fever-bright and stinging, enough to leave him lying on his back on the floor for a moment. He turned his head and spat out a stream of blood, but a prod around his mouth with his tongue told him he wasn’t missing any teeth. “Nice to see you too.”

    “You bastard.” Arthur was on him in an instant, grabbing John by the front of his coat and dragging him up off the floor, only to slam his back into the nearest wall. Several things fell off a nearby shelf and shattered, but thankfully John didn’t give a damn about any of them. “What the hell is wrong with you, huh?”

    In the quiet, lonely moments, when John had envisioned a reunion with Arthur, he had always pictured the older man being angry–how could he not? John had left, abandoned the gang and a woman with a newborn, and as far as Arthur knew, he’d fucked off because he was afraid of being a father.

    That was just about the furthest thing from the truth, but Arthur would never, ever know the truth.

    Not if John was still breathing to keep it away from him.

    (AKA the AU where John never came back to the gang after he "ran away"... and everything changes because of it.)

    Summary

    The Holy Kingdom of Faerghus has been left in a state of disarray in the years following King Lambert's death, with the nobility reduced to infighting in an attempt to gain power and the threat of civil war if the future of the crown is not secured. Prince Dimitri is finally poised to take the throne, for the sake of his kingdom, but if he truly wishes to offer security to the people he will need an heir, preferably one with a crest.

    Fortunately, the archbishop has found a likely candidate to be his wife. Unfortunately, Dimitri thinks he might be falling in love with her brother.

    Summary

    “I know you have no reason to,” Ogata says, the words finding their way through the fog in his brain, “but as a dying man, grant me one last wish. And then you can devour me until nothing’s left of me.”
    The being steps closer. Ogata tries to ignore the twitch of claws at his sides.
    “Make me feel loved,” Ogata mumbles.

    After murdering his father, Ogata is cast out by the people of his village and taken to the shrine of the forest god to be punished for his crime.

    Summary

    He tells himself they always did talk better without words, and just maybe, if their bodies clashed and clawed and collided, Ogata would understand.

    Summary

    Arthur thinks of Hosea saying that the pencil should be guided by love; that looking at a thing is not the same as seeing a thing, and that this is the difference between a hack job and a man with any real modicum of talent. Arthur thinks about how inextricably his loyalty, faith and love are all tangled up together inside his heart, and he draws John’s portrait up in the tree as faithfully as he can, faithful enough even to remember the bits of twigs stuck fast in his wild black mop of dirty hair.

    This is the first time Arthur thinks that he loves John.

    Summary

    When Ogata was a child, he'd always keep an eye on the sky, watching for storm-grey clouds overhead.
    He liked the rain, liked the after-dew, and even though it scared away the game, he liked the thunderstorms, too.

    (Sugimoto and Ogata play a game of cat-and-mouse, only here, there are no winners or losers.)
