    Summary

    “I used to braid Pow-or Jinx, or, well—she was Powder then…” Vi stuttered. She stopped braiding for a second. Caitlyn didn’t move, but she didn’t tense like she once did at the very mention of the name. Vi shook her head and resumed braiding. “I used to braid my sister’s hair when we were little. It wasn’t this long, certainly wasn’t as long as when you knew her. She wanted to grow it out but it annoyed her whenever she could feel it all over her neck.” Vi reached the end of the braid in Caitlyn’s hair. She studied it for a second. It looked pretty good for a braid to sleep in. It wasn’t crooked, at least, and the sections were neat. She banded off the end of it.

    Caitlyn turned around. She pulled the braid over her shoulder to observe it, unconsciously running her hands over it. She looked up at Vi after a moment and tilted her head. Opened her mouth, then closed it and pursed her lips.

    “Does this have anything to do with why you really don’t want me to cut my hair?”

    Summary

    “You are not taking good enough care of yourself,” Caitlyn starts, looking towards the fountain. She’s lost weight and her cheeks are hollowed, the knuckles of her hand too pronounced into Vi’s grasp. “I need you now, more than ever, Violet.”

    “You have me,” Vi says, as a matter of fact. As if she has anyone else to live for, to give her loyalty to. “In any way you’d want me.”

    Summary

    “Room for one more?” Vi asks, pulling a bottle from the satchel at her side, half empty, amber liquid sparkling golden in the low light, like the rooftops below them. She hands it to him before he can protest, goes to rummage around the satchel again to fish out a dented cup and its matching straw.

    How she even pulled it from the rubble of the Last Drop Ekko’ll never know, but he knows he loves her so much in that moment it makes him dizzy, loves her in that way he hasn’t since they were children, since the last time she took a punch aimed at him.

    Summary

    What’s worse is the fact that Shauna was the person she called to pick her up and made it abundantly fucking clear that she was the last person on her list, like apparently even Jeff made the cut above her. She knows that, realistically there were more options, the bus system kinda sucks but it works and Jackie’s parents, as shitty as they are, know how to drive. It doesn’t hold water to rest on what-if’s, not when they don’t matter, not she is standing here, in the dying sun, waiting for a train.

    (Or: five times Jackie and Shauna end up in close proximity and the one time they chose to be)

    Summary

    “Did you flinch when the dagger pierced you?”

    “...yes.” Another spat-out admission.

    She shakes her head, careful to be kind. “There is no honour lost to flinch at medicine.”

    Silence again. Bandaging is just as important as the medicine itself, and Castti takes extra precautions just to be safe. Castti tugs at the cotton, perhaps too sharply. Still, Throné does not flinch. Castti wishes she would.

    “Are you used to it?”

    “Used to what?” She shucks her gloves into a small basin to wash in the morning.

    “Blood. On your hands.”
