    Summary

    You just like fixing things. Putting in the elbow grease. The Kineema. Your clothes. Your bike. Your apartment. The world. Harry is something you can fix, if you’re patient and methodical and uncompromising. He’s like old leather, soaking up the polish under your hands and taking on a shine.

    Fixing things is, for you, also a little bit about the power.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry I don’t remember it.”

    This is probably the thousandth time Jean’s heard this exact thing come out of his mouth. Completely empty words from a man who does not even know what he’s actually apologising for.

    It means less than fucking nothing to him.

    Jean wants to tell him this, but finds that he doesn’t have the energy for it. Instead, he slumps against the railing and presses the heels of his hands into his eyes until he starts to see static.

    “I wish I didn’t either.”

     

    (or: Jean's last ditch effort to get Harry to remember him, before Kim steals him away.)

    Summary

    Somewhere in the Pox, an overtired detective sits sentry as his partner spends time with the inside of his eyelids.
    CONCEPTUALISATION: Two birds on a wire, their feet frozen in place by the ice-cold.
    SHIVERS: You are here. You will always be here. Even in this abandoned wilderness, you are in the heart of the city still.

    Amongst the cold evergreens of the Pox, Harrier Du Bois and Kim Kitsuragi hunker down in an old birdwater's hide and watch for signs of a clandestine meeting. Le Retour is coming for Revachol, and it's coming soon.

    YOU: “Maybe I can tell the future, Kim.”
