    Summary

    Seivarden was still looking at me with some strange sad longing, as though I was a particularly good brandy she couldn’t afford. I didn’t understand then, although a slow awareness was growing in the back of my mind.

    Maybe the awareness came later, and I’m only inserting it now out of pity for our younger selves. The feeling at the time was one of utter confusion.

    “I know you don’t really want me around,” she said. “But—please.”

     

    In which Breq navigates the mortifying ordeal of being wanted.

    This fic singlehandedly made me fall in love with the whole “les amis canon era shenanigans” genre.

    Heartwrenching. Interesting character interpretations, too.

    Summary

    Grantaire's family is the largest collection of idiots he's ever seen exist in one place without succumbing to death by natural selection. They're ridiculous, chaotic, sad, furious, utterly codependent, and, er, they have wings. They're also imprisoned in a secret government facility that experiments on them for unknown (but Grantaire's gonna go ahead and say sinister) reasons. The revolution will not be civilised.

    Very good; very dark. Somehow makes nearly 200k feel short.
