Summary
HALF LIGHT - The suspect is going to raise his gun and shoot at your chest. The bullet will dance around your ribs and explode through your spine, painting the walls and the lieutenant’s jacket with blood red fireworks.
YOU - Why … am I not afraid, then? He is going to shoot me but I don’t feel afraid. Why?
ESPRIT DE CORPS - You know why, Harry.
YOU - I really don’t. I should be afraid, right?
LOGIC - No, no you shouldn’t.
YOU - But why?
LOGIC - Because he is not going to shoot you.
YOU - The realization hits you worse than any bullet could. The man is not going to shoot you, he is going to shoot Kim.
-
Aka. the fic where Kim breaks his glasses and things get gay.

Summary
Five things you learn living with Kim Kitsuragi, and one thing he learns living with you.
KIM KITSURAGI: He closes his eyes briefly, takes a breath, and opens them. He looks directly at you and says, “You can stay at my apartment.”
AUTHORITY: It’s not an offer. There’s no, if you want. It’s a command.
YOU: Your eyes water even further.
JEAN VICQUEMARE: He barks out a laugh. “Fuck,” he says. “Lieutenant, with all due respect…”
AUTHORITY: He trails off when Kim turns to look at him.
ENDURANCE: I don’t think you know what you’re getting into, Jean concludes in his head.

Summary
Lieutenant double-yefreitor Harrier Du Bois is a dangerous man. He is a disease; he gets under your skin and spreads, awakens that old gnawing hunger in you.
You put a hand to your face, pinch your nose. “Violation of the peace - battery - littering-”
“Go on, then, arrest me, Kim,” he says, smirking. He’s loose and large and looks down at you. And you think about it. You really do. Turning him around, slamming him against the wall, face-first. He’s larger than you, but he’s drunker, and he gets clumsy when he’s drunk. You’ve practiced, years and years of it. You can have the cuffs on him before he even realizes what’s happening.
You think, ah, fuck it, and then you’re on him, one hand on his shoulder, the other on his waist, spinning him around, shoving him, and he loses his footing on the curb, stumbles, and you get him under an arm, pick him up, and push him face first into the wall, reaching for your cuffs. You’re breathing hard against his neck.Bookmarked by dridtallis

Summary
His voices must be going at it, because you watch as he furrows his brow, looks at you and nods, steps closer, steps back, steps closer again.. and then he smiles a little bit. It’s small and unlike his usual brilliant grin or the sleazy grimace he once wore in Martinaise. It is kind, and open, and warm. For some reason, this ugly and imbalanced part of you has made his day better. You feel as though something is being given to you, even though you were the one who volunteered personal information. You feel as though you should hold it in your hands and learn to feel it without shying away. You feel the telltale shiver of a moment, as they say. You feel the undercurrent of a choice.
Will you try today?
