Summary
“It’d be more enjoyable if you weren’t so determined to burn yourself darling.” A mean smile was there as his eyes remained covered. He could sense the recoil.
“I’m not the one putting myself in harm’s way—”
“Oh darling but you are!” He sat up perhaps too quickly, vision swimming for a moment, a fire in his eyes. “You are! Quite a show it will be too I must say.”
In which Grimm is so exhausted by everything. By his realm falling apart which is making him decay, by the stress of trying to recover something of the dream realm, and most importantly, by Hollow who insists on staying far too close despite the danger of a runaway fire.

Summary
Ghost wasn’t sure what compelled it to return to the Blue Lake before making its way to the Black Egg Temple, but finding Quirrel there, getting a chance for final goodbye, is a pleasant surprise.
However… they recognize the far-off look in his eyes, the exhaustion in his voice. They know they will never see him again once they leave—and not just because of their own fate.
It’d be hypocritical of them to stop him, and they refuse to be a hypocrite. Refuse to deny him that rest that he deserves.
…It has never claimed to be selfless, though, and it will gladly take a final moment of selfishness and stay with him a little longer.Bookmarked by StandUser_Mara

Summary
The Knight takes Quirrel by the hand, leads him away from the Blue Lake's shore, and beckons him to follow them. For whatever reason, Quirrel agrees. Hallownest's many twists and turns may be daunting, but when an archivist and his knight get it into their heads to protect each other, few dangers are any match for them.

Summary
When it comes to their relationship, Hypnos is pleased to announced Zagreus is an attentive lover. One of the only problems — which isn't much of a problem at all, really, but does pose some concern — is that he rarely, if ever, sleeps. As a matter of fact, Hypnos can't remember the last time Zagreus got some rest. So he resolves to teach Zagreus how sleep can do him a great deal of good. (That, and provide the perfect opportunity for some experimentation in the bedroom.)

Summary
"Zag," Hypnos breathed fondly. "...Zagreus. ...Zag." Nervous sweat pooled in his hands. "Slayer of hydras, stepper of spike-traps..." Now he was full-on frantic babbling! "Prince of the Underworld and my heart, all-around swell guy..."
"Yes, most of that's accurate." The man in question stayed put. With an amused, patient smile. "Were you just waiting here to recite my many nicknames, or-"
"MARRY ME!"

Summary
The sun finishes its descent, clouds stained deep wine purple and fading rose pink.
Zagreus breathes out slowly, not quite a sigh but deeper than a usual exhale.
“That was different from it rising,” he admits. “I don't know if it was entirely your intent, but this has all been quite romantic, Hypnos. A handcrafted shore? A day of fishing? The sunset? Aphrodite would be impressed, if not worried you're going to put her out of a job.”
“I don't need to impress her,” Hypnos says dismissively, “just you.”
(Technically an epilogue to my other work, Sleep Schism, but also absolutely can be read as a standalone. In fact, I encourage it; Schism is rather long, but this is probably the perfect little fix most people are looking for- much more bite sized.)

Summary
Hypnos has his golden eyes riveted on the fishing lure, but he's staring right past it. The pole is lax in his hands.
Zagreus knows, from centuries spent around Hypnos to varying degrees, that the guy sometimes just gets like that. A little spacey, a little airy, a little impermanent and intangible like a- well, like a dream. Something wispy and immaterial, somehow physically present and yet not here at all.
The problem is, he's been doing it a lot more lately.

Once again, Lio is to be actualised as a node of the flows of the forces. No signification, no subjectification, an assemblage of semiotic flows, material flows, bright and totalizing.
Galo is absolutely determined to save Lio.
