    Summary

    How you could possibly think I regret marrying you, I have no fucking clue.

    Arthur opens his mouth, but John corrects himself before he gets the chance to.

    No, correction. I do. You have it wired into every fiber of your being that you are not good enough, that you do not deserve the slightest decency or humanity. I've seen it again and again and again. Ever since I first met you. And it continues to drive me damn near insane when such a beautiful creature as yourself denies such things.

    Arthur shudders. He could be crying.

    I don't think you understand how much I love you. How devoted I am to you. When I said 'yes, I will marry you' I meant all of you. Every single inch of flawed, imperfect perfection that calls himself Arthur Lester. I married humanity on that train. And I don't plan to divorce. Period.

    =

    Arthur's self hatred strikes once again, but John is there to pick up the pieces and glue Arthur back together.

    Like he always is.

    A gift for my wonderful mutual who wrote me a fanfic <3 tysm, jadealaide <3

    Summary

    Arthur wakes up. So many of his memories lately start with this. He wakes up, and everything hurts, and John is saying something—but John’s not saying anything this time, and there’s someone in this room with Arthur that sounds a lot like his friend.
    --
    John’s voice always rose and fell, low into a deep growling bass and high into a rough yell. But one constant, one word that never sounded different no matter the tone was how he said Arthur’s name. Emphasis on the ‘ar’ and ‘ur’, the ‘th’ in the middle always smooth like wind. Other people tended to hiss that sound, the ‘th’. With John, it seemed he knew exactly how to say it to make it glide.

    Based on all that, he deduced it was in fact John saying, “Arthur!”

    Summary

    Despite popular belief, Lesso doesn’t hate summer. She doesn’t particularly like it, either, but prefers it over a cold, wet spring and most definitely over winter’s cold and icy claws that somehow, always and no matter what, seems to tighten its fingers around her.

    Summary

    If heaven exists, she knows she’s not going there. But when her eyes flutter open and she stares into a beautifully painted evening sky, she wonders if being nice to Clarissa for even just a few minutes in the years they’ve known each other has granted her a spot there after all. It’s warm, too. Comfortable, soft. Like clouds. Maybe clouds aren’t just water after all, or she is losing her mind. Does life after death even exist?
