    Summary

    The dark of the night finds them shoulder to shoulder on the balcony of the handstand, watching as the enlisted men shoot off red flares around a bonfire right into the midnight sky. A color that once meant blood spilled on the deck of a B-17. A man screaming for morphine, for their mother, for God. Now, it’s fired not in a signal of death but in celebration. Deliverance from evil.

    Or, The Clegan Spin-off to "Here I Am (Right here with you)".

    Summary

    In the course of a single day, John Brady receives the career-ending news that he is both intersex and four months pregnant in the middle of a war. His refusal to terminate on religious grounds begins five months of a difficult, life-threatening pregnancy and a drift away from other people as he experiences a newly alien body, all while the English medical system strips him of the autonomy he was once afforded—back when doctors saw him as entirely male—in degrees.

    As he increasingly leans on his Catholicism to cope with the horrors of his situation, profound isolation in an unfamiliar city, separation from the man he is in love with, and estrangement from his own body, John becomes more and more fixated on the story of the Virgin Mary and the idea of divinely ordained pregnancy until their identities begin to bleed together at the edges.

    Heavy subject matter, heed warnings. Dead dove; do not eat!

    Summary

    Companion to "Say it (like you'll come back)" by the incomparable euph0riac...

    Easy's been at war so long they don't remember what it felt like before. There's been very little that they've been through that feels anything like a victory, and so when the chance to do some actual good comes along, well. It's all really rather predictable, isn't it?

    Summary

    John gets sick before the march.
    He doesn’t get better during it.

    Not that Gale is surprised, the march is enough to drive healthy people to death, to send men dropping to their knees, never to get up again. It scares him that it could be John, that there would be nothing in the world he could do to stop it.
    But for now, John is strong, the strongest man he knows– and that will have to be enough.
