Summary
But the creek is the first time he remembers stretching his hand out. The first time he remembers extending his fingers, eyes fixed on soaked blonde strands, and thinking, grab on, grab on, I can save you and I'll never let go.
He wishes, still, that Katsuki had taken his hand. Had let their fingers lock together, tiny but surprisingly strong, knuckles scraped to hell and back from daytime wandering and playground mishaps. Had let Izuku leverage him out of the water, or perhaps they would have fallen back in together, but at least it would have been together. Perhaps they wouldn't have broken apart so spectacularly, so destructively, so violently.
But Katsuki had not taken his hand, not in this life, and so it would go.
It's always been a river, for them.

Summary
Cid leaned in close, nearly putting his nose into the man’s neck and inhaled long and deep. Clive’s scent was still forming, his scent glands newly emerged, but already he smelled different. Clive smelled like sunlight on water; like woodsmoke; like pine; like home and hearth and warmth and the burning of the stars in the sky and the cataclysm of meteors and, and, and…
He was, unquestionably, the best thing Cid had ever tasted.
Or: Cid, Clive, and the reformation of fire.

Summary
His hands were cold.
Clive’s hands were never cold. He burned with the fire of the Phoenix, with Ifrit’s hell-flames, with passion and conviction and care. He was always warm - his eyes, his laugh, the richness of his voice.

Summary
Clive shifted, glancing down at Cid’s arm, speckled with the curse, at the larger patches of stone that crept towards his shoulder. “You thought you were dying,” he said quietly.
“Aye, I was. I was actively dying, Clive, no other way to look at it.” He blinked again, flexing his hand. “Though, I suppose it’ll get no worse now.”

Summary
Newly freed after Nysa Defile, the omega assassin known as Wyvern finds himself grappling with the terrifying realities of freedom, a long-ignored thirst for revenge, and a pregnancy he’s not sure he should have decided to keep.
Cid’s half sure he needs to step in before Wyvern kills himself pursuing everything that’s been denied him before his freedom, but he does know that if he tries, Wyvern might tear his throat out. Far be it from Cid to be an overbearing alpha, but he can’t just stand back and let Wyvern drive himself into the ground.
They make quite the pair, two disasters with a baby on the way.
