    Summary

    The desert, while being a perfect opportunity for dominion over the sand's profits and overall control, was a difficult place to live in. It meant melting sweat, freezing nights and countless grains of sand that Scar would be finding in every nook and cranny for months. But with his trusted and loyal business partner by his side, he'd never thought he'd find trouble.

    Until he got heatstroke.

    Suddenly the world was light, and his slow, dazed mind could only think to focus on his partner, half naked in the sun and sweat-glistened skin burning into his eyes. Sure, he could've blamed the heat's effects for his wandering mind, but doing that would've been a disservice to the man with muscled thighs, strong arms and a cracking set of tits.

     

    Or: Scar gets heatstroke and finally discovers the marvels of his business partner's naked body.

    Summary

    This wasn't how Tango expected his wednesday to end up - then again, who expected to die on any random day? In his boredom and pity of his shitty life and shitier death, he decides to pay closer attention to that detective working on his case. Maybe he can help him solve his murder, and that might wrap his story up to a finished ending? Yes, if Jimmy writes the last paragraph to Tango's story, he'll pass on for real, and leave this miserable place for good. It just happens to be that Detective Solidarity also has a really cute cat.

    TLDR: Tango becomes a ghost and decides to help Detective Solidarity solve his murder case, because that would bring him the closure he needs to move on.

    Summary

    Etho sniffs. “What’s with the chicken noodle soup treatment? Would’ve thought you’d be rubbing my face in your perfect health.”

    “Yeah, well, a seizure’s a little different to getting the man flu every November.” There’s a ghost of an attempted laugh in Bdubs's voice, but it’s severely undercut by the obvious worry there too.

    It has Etho snapping to attention. “A seizure? I don’t remember that.”

    Etho loses four years of memories in a redstone accident. Which just so happens to include the entire length of his and Bdubs's relationship.

    Summary

    There is a certain joy that Grian takes in Scar: in being his partner in crime, in waking up in the same house as him and watching the sun rise up his face, his chin, highlighting the edges of his scars, across the bridge of his nose, finally into his eyes. There's a playfulness that settles in his chest when he pretends he wasn't looking – as if he could ever rightfully pretend such a thing – that yes, Grian thinks he would have liked this life once.

    But not now, not when the end is so close, the taste of his own blood on his tongue.

    Summary

    In the quiet stillness of the middle of the woods, Legundo just stayed silent as he let Owen let out apologies for a man who’d been gone for centuries. It’s the way that Owen trembles in his arms, the way he hides away his sobs in his chest, that made the realization of just how much his sire had meant to him.

    “I follow no sire,” Owen had said, the venom in his voice before wasn’t out of anger from the conversation, it was more akin to something like mourning, Legundo realized far too late.

    --

    Or: Owen has a breakdown, Legundo picks up the pieces
