Summary
"Perhaps you'll find another soul to torture,” Corvo teases, “Another tired middle-aged father who is so desperate for your fickle attention."
“There is no one else,” the Outsider replies suddenly, voice fierce. His brow pinches just barely. “There is no other soul like yours. When you’re gone, I’ll wait to find you again, when your soul is reincarnated in a thousand or so years.”
Corvo’s heart is thudding in his ears and the Mark burns hot on his skin, under his wrappings, like it's about to burst into flames.
And then, as though caught being too sentimental, the Outsider’s hands drop slowly from Corvo’s face. He looks away, voice quiet when he says, “Don't die, beloved. It would be so troublesome for me.”
Corvo Attano and the Outsider, in a dance not yet occurred, and so very, very human. Or, the transformation of a lifeless god to a god in human flesh and blood with a living, beating heart.

Summary
“And once again, you think you know what’s best for me.”
John rises from the chair, the anger and frustration and hurt overwhelming him, bursting out of every pore, and he doesn’t even know for sure that it’s Sherlock he’s angry at, really, but the only reason he tied himself to Mary in the first place is because the person he really loved left him behind, and the woman he married once sat in the shadows above a darkened swimming pool and aimed a sniper rifle at his heart and later shot his best friend in cold blood and cuckolded him and just gave birth to a child that wasn’t his and right now he just can’t do this, he just fucking can’t do this anymore.
***
John has to somehow rebuild his life in the wake of Mary's betrayal and Sherlock's deceptions.

“Dios,” He whispers to himself, rubbing his face, but it doesn’t take away the absurd thought that’s crossed his mind. He types back a reply eventually and then rolls onto his back to stare at the ceiling. In the dark, the shape of coffee brown iris’ and plush pink lips smiling form. Raphael rolls over with a frustrated growl and grabs up his phone again sending the texts quickly before he can change his mind.

Summary
"How long were you alone?"
"Eh. On and off."
"Exluding supply runs."
Dubious silence.
"Not helping," said Shiro.
‡‡‡‡‡
See also: a lot about Shiro and Keith and not much in the way of everyone else, although they are and will continue to be mentioned. Mostly Lance. Lance is mentioned a lot. (Because I think his relationship with Keith is particularly important even if I'm not focusing on it.) Summary subject to occasional change. -

Summary
He lounges in his chair, legs splayed almost obscenely. “Y’know, my ma used to read me stories at night. ‘Bout great adventurers led astray by a villain. ‘Don’t stray off the edge, here there be dragons.’ I reckon that’s usually where the best treasures were found.”
A roll of eyes and a scoff are his prize for his little ramble. “Don’t be ridiculous.”

Summary
The reality of the situation doesn’t set in until early next morning, staring at himself in the mirror, head as steam-touched as the room around him. His eyes find his soul-mark in the reflection, the man’s mask immortalized on his skin in bold strokes of jet-black ink, dark and permanent. Like a shadow.
*
The explosion at Overwatch HQ forges a soul-bond between Jack and Gabriel, only for them to wake in a world where neither knows the other survived. Wounded and disgraced, Jack Morrison disappears in pursuit of those responsible, haunted by a dead man’s last words. Years later, Reaper pins down the elusive Soldier: 76, and all is revealed.
