Summary
Caduceus circles the garden, a hand on each grave as he passes. A respectful pat and a check-in — Hey, how is your yarrow growing?
It’s the second or maybe third or fourth time he’s wandered his route through the graves, just to catch anything he’s missed. Anything… Well, anything untoward. Anything strangling or swallowing, starving other plants of nutrients or damaging the gravestones. He carries a sickle on his hip, and a fork and trowel in a hardy hemp bag tied around his waist. There’s a little more nettle to harvest. Some crocosmia to tidy. And then he’s back to where he began, and still not feeling quite right.

Summary
Thoughts on post-cr3 Wildmother (and other gods) sort-of-death. A fic in which Caduceus mourns her.
-
The stream is clogged with willowherb, fibrous spreading roots tangled into a thick blanket just beneath the water. Downstream, the small waterfalls are dry, the moss surrounding them unhappy, pale and crackly beneath his palm. So, it needs tending to.

Summary
"Caduceus walks as quickly as he can back home, and he thinks about flatmates who are at once too much and not enough. He thinks about arms, wrapped tight around his back, and about himself, a bedroom ghost, sitting in a room that’s not entirely his, and won’t ever be."
𓆱
In which Caduceus has started a textiles course, because he needed to get out of a house he hadn't left in years. Because.. he's not sure. He's trying to figure it out. It's a lot though, and friends are hard to come by.
Things change, though, when he meets Beauregard at the library and she offers him a room at the housing co-op she and her friends are setting up. There's connection there, but still... it's a lot. And, still, he's not sure what he's doing away from home at all. -

Summary
Or, an exploration of a favourite headcanon/au of mine - transfem caduceus and transfem team cleric solidarity,
written in little vignettes based on one thing at a time.✸🌷
Jester changed her body to be the way she wanted. Mostly when she was younger, she says, and her mother found someone to help, to pay a lot of coin to make it happen.
She’s been a girl since always (since before that) and a woman when she got old enough. Never anything else.So she understands when Caduceus asks about it.

a haircut, a blade slipped right through by dragonflyface

Summary
The comb in his shaky hand, carved from pine, catches another tangle. It pulls, a sharp pain across his scalp, like pin-pricks, as he yanks it through.
Caduceus clenches his jaw, the edge of his tongue bitten between molars, and tries his best to push through the terrible, awful pulling sensation… Tries. Because then there’s another knot, and another, and he really can’t deal with any of it right now. Too tired from all the dreaming and the loud dinner-chatter, so he throws the comb back inside his pack, and wishes he threw it harder.
✸
Or, in which Caduceus dreams of the somnovum, and cuts his hair.
(In which it the city in the astral sea feels so terribly familiar.)(A missing scene, set around the beginning of the Aeor arc.)

Summary
“Nogvurot General A&E, this is Medic Eckhardt with a trauma alert in the HEMS coming out of Shadycreek, can I get a team with a cleric on the other end? We’re fifteen minutes out. Young male tiefling – age unknown, twenties – with severe sharp force injury to the chest… Patient has lost consciousness; intubated and bagged; in VT, going into VF. Established IV to the right forearm; given two potions of greater healing and 100mg of suude before VF, currently waiting for shockable rhythm before we try another potion. No signs of curses or poisons. Again we are fifteen out, any questions or orders?

Summary
Exhausted and out of spell slots, half of the Mighty Nein are trapped underground with no way out until they take a long rest or are found by the rest of their group. Caduceus uses his final healing spell on an injured Caleb, not realizing just how severely hurt he himself is from the tunnel collapse.
During this time Fjord comes to the realization that he may need to have a conversation with a certain firbolg cleric about the concept of self-worth...that is, if the rest of the party find them in time...

Summary
A long time ago, the Mother had been forced away from them. She had been forced away, but she lived on in a voice upon the wind, the dawn chorus, growth and life and what was left behind after the Matron came. So now it was their duty, to tend to the birth and the life and the decay.
Caduceus Clay was alone for a very long time.

Summary
“My steady boy,” his mother says, as his parents both pull him in for one last hug. “You’ll be alright. Whatever happens next, you’re all in Melora’s hands; she’ll guide you as she guides us.”
All the way back to the house, though he passes through the three gates unhindered, he feels watched. The wind follows him back out of the forest and it is not welcoming at all—he hasn’t wondered about the feel of the shadows for years, has grown up past imagining them, but he can’t shake the idea of something sharp hidden in the space between the trees.
Steady, he thinks he hears it mock, steady, steady.Bookmarked by dragonflyface
