Summary
"Fenris -
I’m sorry for leaving, and I’m sorrier for getting angry that you didn’t want me to. I know you want to be with me, to protect me from what’s to come. I also know that what you could most protect me from is also what could most hurt you. I can’t have that. We protect each other, right?
I’d have you with me if it wouldn’t kill me to see you hurt."

Summary
His voice croaks as though with disuse, though it hasn’t been long since he last spoke. The back of his throat aches and burns. “I didn’t mean to kill Alfira,” he tells Withers - voice coming out weak, reedy and pathetic - laying her down delicately in front of the skeleton. Careful placement of her hands at her sides. It matters little to Withers, who stares down at him with the shadows of his face obscuring eyes. “Please bring her back,” he adds, a raspy whisper, though he can already see the answer.
“The bard’s death is a weight for thine own conscience to bear,” Withers says, finger outstretched as if in instruction. Bad dog. “She will be left to the peace of eternity, where the Urge shall seek her no more.”
And if Withers knows the Urge, Withers would have known if there was a way to stop it before he did this. And if Withers knows the Urge, Withers would know if Alfira being alive would mean she could never be free of him.

Summary
He checks on each of them individually before anything, holding hands and pressing easy kisses to their heads. Bandaging scrapes and bites. There’s something in him that sets them all at ease, the frantic buzzing they can become, bouncing off of each other to snaps and snarls, becomes something docile in his presence. Easily moved when pushed.
Henry cares for them all, rarely spends longer on one than another - finds activities they can all do together - but Olive gets to see the flash of his teeth in the dim light when he smiles. Feel the rumble of his chest in a laugh when she shoves her head under his chin in a clumsy embrace.

Summary
Billie was made by knife, and now there’s nothing she sees in her body anymore but the jagged shape carved.
He was made by knife too, she thinks, watching the Outsider in their tiny, one-room apartment. A god once, held on high - now washing the dishes of all things. They had to buy metalware so when his shaking, unpracticed hands dropped them from the sink they wouldn’t shatter across the hardwood floor. Only irritate the neighbors.
