    Summary

    If Mason were to close his eyes and picture Theo, he’d see him mean-eyed and dangerous. Phony charm shed like snake skin baring malintent. His aftermath, Melissa hunched over Scott’s lifeless body doing chest compressions. 

    Not like this. Hazy and unnervingly honest. Tips of his ears red, pressing his palms to his cheeks to soak up their warmth. Mason saw it down there, in the basement. The way a slice of pizza and a bear hug from Liam thawed all of his standoffishness into a puddle of belonging. Pity invite or not, Theo showed up for a reason. 

    Mr. Maybe-I-Want-To-Be-In-The-Pack tries, Mason can at least give him that.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    It’s sharp and unsettling, the brief spike of guilt that erupts inside of Mason for being wary of him. Because, really, Theo hasn’t been all that bad recently, and Mr. Maybe-I-Want-To-Be-In-The-Pack tries, Mason can at least give him that—

    Ah. There it is. Kneejerk sympathy. The Curse of the Conventionally Attractive Teenage Boy with Sad Eyes and a Troubled Past.

    Summary

    Theo thinks it’s a cosmic injustice that his closeness with others always comes at the price of his body, but then thinks harder about that, and. Yeah.

    Maybe that’s just cosmic justice.

    ---
    Or, Theo is always holding onto Liam like a bad habit but fuck if he doesn't just want to be held too for once.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Theo’s kinda enraptured by the way his hair fans out beneath the nozzle, how his eyes cut through the mop of hair, land on Theo and linger. He’s crouching in a brown puddle of dirty faucet water suds and diluted blood and for a fleeting moment Theo thinks he’s pretty the same way broken glass is when it catches the light.

    Summary

    Liam asks, “Are you going to stay this time?”

    A naive hope always lingers in this routine, in Liam’s foolish conviction that this time will be different. That this time, Theo’s truck will remain in the driveway, that the last vestiges of the chimera won’t be receding headlights and the rumbling of an engine.

    It’s a sad disguise: Liam resting his chin in his free hand with a casual grin stretching onto his lips as he gazes at the dead-end boy lying atop his bedspread like he simply asked if Theo has any plans this weekend.

    Theo doesn’t tear his gaze from the television, hollow as ever when he finally parts his lips to speak.

    “Nah, I don’t think I will,” he shrugs.

    Familiar routine like reading from an old script, pages yellowing with age.

    “Okay,” Liam says, offering a jerky nod. That grin feels a little tighter on his face, too manufactured. “That’s fine.”

    Summary

    As it turns out, rebirth is a real bastard of a thing. Once he’s no longer actively experiencing a critical internal organ repeatedly ripped from his chest cavity, Theo can almost appreciate the poetry of it.

     

    In which Theo Raeken goes to Hell, comes back again, and begins to put the pieces of himself back together - with his bruised knuckles and his bloody fingers and his hand-me-down heart.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    The thing is, it’s the ἀνάβασις, “the going up,” that differentiates this convention from simple Major Character Death. It’s not enough just to go to Hell; what goes down, must come up. And you don’t need to know much about physics to know that that is a reversal of the natural order.

    Summary

    In a quite literal sense, Theo’s brain was wired for detached analysis, meticulous planning. Foresight, troubleshooting. Now, though, Liam Dunbar is golden-eyed and roaring a furious challenge at a half-dozen Ghost Riders, and Theo is about to do something really, really stupid.

    Theo Raeken, Liam Dunbar, and the Beacon Hills Memorial Hospital - before, during, and after the war.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Really, it was just this: Liam destroying Kira’s sword as a one-sided act of faith, Liam’s breathless shout of laughter after finding the right car key to steal a police cruiser, almost-fistbumps in the hospital hallway, wide blue eyes flashing briefly golden in a shattered mirror, Mykonos, Theo gingerly cleaning blood off a still-unconscious Liam’s healing hands.

    my god.

    Summary

    Liam just opens and closes his mouth several times, and then says to Garrett, almost accusatory: “You were dead.” He glances up at Theo, like it’s important he convince Theo of the truth of his claim as he insists, “He was dead.

    “Seems pretty lively for a dead guy,” Theo murmurs back.

    Garrett just grins.

    Summary

    Theo doesn’t know what B-movie, monster-of-the-week bullshit the McCall pack has gotten itself entangled with, but he does know that he’s looking forward to lording over them the fact that he’s undoubtedly going to have to go help rescue whichever of the starry-eyed morons gets themselves captured or nearly killed—or both—this time. He’s already smirking to himself just thinking about it, methodically carving through another handful of the strange indistinct black things that had detached themselves from the late-afternoon shadows in his borrowed apartment, and attacked him.

    Only—that isn’t how it’s going to go, he’s slowly realizing, because two of the creatures that he’d already scythed through merely reform without so much as a flinch as he watches, and throw themselves back at him.

    “You’re not being very sympathetic,” Lando replies. “My roommate is a serial killer!”

    Charles says, unhelpfully, “five months ago you walked into his apartment with no identification, no luggage, and the request for him not to look your name up on the internet, and he let you live with him without even asking if you served in the war. And we are surprised he is a lunatic?”

    Or: Oscar kills people. Lando is legally dead. Someone wants to restart the war.

    “There is nothing minimal about our relationship. I will never ask you for more than you are willing to give. And I will never view our friendship as lesser-than just because there is no romantic aspect to it. But I can’t pretend I don’t want it.”

    Then he looks at Charles in a way so heartbreakingly tender that it sinks its fingers into the soft flesh of Charles’ heart, its grip constricting when tears pool on Edwin’s lower lashes.

    “Because I do want it.” A pause. He swallows, whispers, “I do want you.”

    I should warn Lewis, Charles thinks, first thing in the morning, as he stares himself down and brushes his teeth. As he scrambles eggs for breakfast. As he takes a shower. As he calls his mom and lets her scold him for scruffy his hair looks

    He doesn't.

    Ferrari is haunted, and Charles — Charles doesn't care about it half as much as he should.
