    Summary

    Then the Alliance delegation shows up, and their offering strolls through the gates of the monastery like he already owns the place.

    A reminder, for those who need it: Cyril is not an idiot. He has good eyes and he uses them.

    An observation, for those who want it: The Golden Deer house leader is Almyran.

    ~

    Cyril knows a lot more than he lets on, Claude is far less covert than he thinks he is, and messing with the guy your parents told you was a possibly-unkillable demon-prince isn’t usually supposed to earn you a lasting friendship but hey… life is already pretty damn weird.

    Summary

    The first time Khalid kills someone he is ten-and-a-quarter and it is not his fault.

    Summary

    “A lot of people end up hating each other after their first Drift,” Nishinoya says, helmet tucked in the crook of his elbow. "But you know," he adds, looking up at Ennoshita with a cheeky sort of grin, "I don't think I could ever hate you."

    "That's," Ennoshita stumbles, feeling his face freeze somewhere between confusion and embarrassment, "That's nice of you, I think."

    Summary

    In which Tsukishima Kei, J-tech mechanic extraordinaire, tries to stop an infuriatingly stubborn Kageyama Tobio from piloting his Jaeger solo. Pacific Rim AU.

    “Which is why this is long overdue,” Tsukishima says, coolly. “Now, pay attention to point number one on the screen. Did you know that, even after controlling for confounding variables, the odds ratio of mortality associated with piloting solo is-"
