    Summary

    Six years after he and Viktor part ways on antagonistic terms, Jayce wakes up in the Machine Herald’s medical clinic.

    Jayce desperately wants to rub at his forehead, but the binding at his wrist stops him. He settles for squeezing his eyes shut. “Why?” he asks.

    Viktor is silent for barely a moment. He says, tonelessly, “I assumed this was preferable to dying.”

    Summary

    “I’m not a demon, right?” Shang Qinghua says, and it comes out squeaky with confusion and disbelief. A demon wouldn’t sound like that, surely?

    “Go look in the mirror,” Mobei-jun says.

    Shang Qinghua throws the covers off and dashes to the mirror on the far side of the room. His eyes, formerly brown, have turned to a bright, shining gold. For a moment he think he sees the glow of a demonic mark on his forehead, but when he turns his head the shimmer fades. He stares in the mirror, and his reflection in the mirror winks.

    Summary

    The faint glint in Eren’s eye calmed Levi’s flare of indignant anger. “Just… let me…” Eren slid his hand down over Levi’s parted lips, gently brushing them with his fingertips. Levi felt the shudder in his spine just as Eren replaced those fingers with a kiss so tender, he nearly missed it. Just a brief touch of the lips, but Levi felt it far deeper than the surface of his skin. It crawled down inside his chest, settling into his belly and replacing that strange, gnawing feeling with something far greater, and much more unsettling.

    After he bid Eren a good night for the second time and closed the door behind him, he leaned against the old, pitted wood and closed his eyes against the vacuous space of his quarters. His own fingers traced the lingering sensation of Eren’s lips against his as the realization struck him.

    This man will destroy me.

    - -

    Levi has known nothing but immense, continuous loss in his time -- it has hardened him. But one stubborn, foolhardy man breaks down the walls Levi has erected around himself, much like those surrounding their world, and shows him just how much lies beyond. Beyond these skies, beyond this life, and further yet. A story of love and loss.

    Summary

    Kiryu is on a job in Sapporo and runs into someone he wasn't expecting. Shenanigans ensue.

    ***

    Majima took his elbows off the table and slammed it with his palm, making the beer cans and the ashtray jump, laughing maniacally.

    “There's no way I'm comin' all the way out to this backwoods town without even tryin' to find my favorite dragon!”

    “Speaking of that,” Kiryu said weakly, “How exactly did you find me?”

    Majima's grin broadened. “Nah-ah, Kiryu-chan,” he wiggled his finger. “A guy can't go 'round revealin' his sources. Let's just say a little bird told me 'bout an apartment that the Dojima family had in Sapporo. Decided to check it out. Secured a spot in that cafe on the corner and waited for ya to show up. Honin' my detective skills.”

    “So when you saw me coming,” Kiryu said slowly, trying to comprehend. “You climbed up on that roof like a cat and jumped me?”

    Majima hee-hee-heed in response. “Ya gotta have that element of surprise in your life, Kiryu-chan. Otherwise, it's just plain borin’!”

    Kiryu looked at him incredulously. Rumor had it that Majima was batshit crazy. He was starting to believe it.
