    Summary

    You never could forget how good he looked perched above you like a damnable god in the midst of a feast. One that hungered for your flesh and your demise. That willful sacrifice on an altar to a being who wants to chew you up between his molars and consume you entirely.
    His hand stretches across the threshold. Hades with an offer.
    And you can't bring yourself to say no.

     

    (Maybe this is what Danny meant when he said there was beauty in death.)

    Summary

    Games within games, played ever in darkness. Manipulation, treachery, rules twisted and broken. Blood sings and whispers, and he falls as she rises, to what end?

    Canon plot compliant, with some divergence. Female Tremere fledgling. Multi-chapter.

    Summary

    "Silco, who had somehow been either drugged or poisoned tonight. Silco that you’d found stumbling around the Lanes on your way home from work. Silco that you put in your bed and had cleaned up and taken care of. Silco that had been running his hands through your hair as he gazed blearily at the ceiling."

    The reader finds Silco under the effects of a drug and does their due diligence as a well-meaning citizen. No good deed goes unpunished.

    Summary

    The Lanes never sleep.

    The sunken streets may lie beneath Piltover’s heavy shadow, and it's faults are numerous and deadly, but no one can claim that the Undercity is boring.

    There is always colour to be found, if you know where to look.

    It’s something you pride yourself on – the ability to see what others can’t. Some mistake it for simple optimism. But you know it’s more than just that. It’s the thing that’s kept you alive this long, in more ways than one. You've always been happy to go wherever life has taken you, and you're a big believer in gut instinct.

    But you never expected to end up working as a bartender at The Last Drop – having been scouted by a blue haired girl who wouldn't take no for an answer.

    Neither did you expect to find yourself landed with the terrifying task of ensuring Silco's personal drinks cart is kept well stocked.

    And you certainly never expected to find yourself inadvertently become the weekly drinking partner of the Eye of Zaun himself.

But when secrets threaten their alliance and Daud takes his last, fateful job, what began as “just business” changes forever. As Dishonored unfolds and the clock starts ticking toward Daud’s fate, the women of Dunwall’s famous brothel tell their side of the story - and Daud learns that regret can kill, but redemption is a choice.
