Summary
Here, tucked away, Izzy could almost convince himself none of it existed, outside of this barrel—he could almost convince himself of his own inexistence if he held his breath. It was no darker with his eyes closed. Perhaps he’d already been laid in his grave.
Izzy could not escape Stede Bonnet, even in his darkest of moments.

Summary
Ze unconsciously categorized his life into two distinct brackets. There were moments with Regect, and there were moments without. The moments with Regret were unending, brutal — and the moments without made Ze wonder if any of it was even real in the first place.
A certain scene from part six rewritten to be slightly more serious and somewhat more homosexual (but keep the dialogue).

Summary
"What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.
"What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.
"I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."
"Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"
"Yes," Grace says hoarsely.
"Anything for him."
***
Adrian does not like Grace.
Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

Summary
Simon's last prayers are answered.
Unfortunately, the god answering his prayers has little concern for his mental wellbeing. The angel who saves him is okay, though.
AKA your average simon-crashlands-on-Erid fic but with a fairly aquatic twist! Very gorey, I actually gagged while writing it which I think speaks to the tone of at least the first chapter. I'll be messing around a lot with the themes of humanity and the effects of being connected to something that hurt you. Will probably update semi-regularly if I don't get burnt out, but this shit has been plaguing my brain for a good while now so maybe we'll get somewhere who knows!!!
Title from Stones by the Narcissist Cookbook! If this makes even one person listen to this song I'll be happy, it's SO phm-coded (https://jammechanics.bandcamp.com/album/s4e7-chat-i-got-him)

Summary
As Simon and Grace had gotten more comfortable with each other, it meant they shared countless small touches... Brushing arms as they walked past each other or nudging the other's foot when sitting close by, just to mess with each other.
He tells himself it means nothing.
