    Summary

    He was damp with sweat all over, his breath scorching in his lungs, and all that would’ve been fine, he could handle himself just fine, had his opponent not been twice his size. The ship swayed with the weight of them and their companions, each focused on a different member of the crew, because sure, it was only gold they wanted, but gods knew the Riptide pirates did not let themselves get fucked over that easy.

    So, battle it was. And they were fucking losing.

    “Gryffon,” Gillion called out from across the deck, sounding equally as winded. “It is your fucking destiny to get these guys off the ship, do you hear me? That is an order.”

    Gryffon gave no indication that he’d heard him. He didn’t have the breath to.

    /////

    Or: The crew gets overrun. Gryffon takes the brunt of it.

    Summary

    Gillion’s lungs stop, his diaphragm spasming as it can’t decide whether to pull air in or push breath out and Gillion’s hand slides down to grip Chip’s shoulder. His eyes burn with tears and impossibly a panicked laugh bubbles up in his chest. Chip is dead. Chip is dead.

    Summary

    The elder stared down at Gillion with those bright, anglerfish eyes. “Edyn is not to be allowed to visit any longer.”

    “But-”

    “That’s final. Champions do not need others. Your reliance is a burden and she is a problem.” The elder's next few words were barely a hiss. “I am doing you a favor by allowing her to live. Don’t make me regret this.”

    Summary

    And, oh, she never knew she could feel this much before. There's delight in her words and love in her heart, filling to the brim and spilling out with every next laugh, every next whisper of “Hello!”

    She’s never quite thought destiny had taken much interest in her, but here, looking down at the small thing swaddled in undersea cloth, she’s convinced that destiny had blessed her with the best gift in the world.

    Or…Edyn Tidestrider is five when she first meets her baby brother.

    Summary

    He really wanted to see what a flustered Gillion would look like.

    And he tried everything to see it, too, but nothing worked. Not a single damn thing. Compliments and encouragement were met with bright smiles and expressions of gratitude. Fleeting kisses on his cheeks, nose, and forehead were responded to in soft looks and a tiny, adorable amount of minor confusion.

    That should have been his first clue.

    Summary

    Once, Gillion would have wondered what it was like to have someone look at you with that much care and kindness. He never saw that look from his own parents, only disappointment and greed. Now though, he knows what it’s like to be looked at with love. He thinks of Edyn, and Jay, and Chip, and he knows that he will be okay.

    He looks at Ollie, laughing as he lifts ten times the weight of the men helping him, and at his mother. He knows they will be okay too.

    5 times people loved Gillion (and 1 time someone was in love with him)

    Summary

    “You know what—” That’s his voice. It’s been so long she last heard it and oh by the gods how is it that even his voice sounds brighter. “—Let’s get the Big Squirt. One for every—”

    A burst of recognition explodes in Gillion’s expression and—oh—she never, ever wants to forget the way his eyes light up.

    She thought her emotions had reached their apotheosis, but judging from the tsunami of love and pride and all the feelings she can’t find herself able to name, she is very obviously wrong.

    “Edyn—”

    “Little brother?” She answers back, and unsurprisingly, she finds her eyes getting misty.

    Or…Two times Edyn talks with her baby brother in Allport, Squirties optional.

    Summary

    Had he been given a second chance, he would’ve reached down, his grip matching Gillion’s and his touch lingering far longer than it had originally. He’d card his fingers through Gillion’s hair. He’d grip Gillion’s shoulders. He’d untie every bit of his soul for Gillion to see, if he’d asked for it.

    He would’ve kissed Gillion Tidestrider like he meant it. Like there would never be another chance.

    Just to let him know he was loved by someone that didn’t expect anything back.

     

    or: 4 times chip thought about kissing gillion tidestrider, + 1 time that he did, and meant to.

    Summary

    As the moon rises above the treeline, Taako smells the distinctive scent of big magic—ozone, hanging thick in the air. The bird unfurls its wings, growing larger and shifting before Taako’s eyes until it's no longer a bird at all, but the most handsome man Taako’s ever seen.

    He’s dark-skinned, with long dreadlocks that tumble down over his shoulders, dressed in a fine suit that’s years out of date, but perfectly preserved. His cheekbones are high and his gaze is sharp. He studies Taako and Magnus from the other side of the thorn bush, and tilts his head, considering them. “You’re a long way from home,” the man says. “Didn't anyone warn you about the dangers lurking in the Felicity Wilds after the sun goes down?”

    Summary

    “It’s okay,” Kravitz settled on, scooting a little bit away from Taako and making a space in the middle. He pulled the blanket back a bit, patted the mattress, an obvious invitation.

    Lup hesitated a moment, and Kravitz worried he’d crossed some sort of line, until she whispered, “Fuck it. Thanks.” and crawled into bed with them.

    Summary

    "He thinks, one day, that maybe what he’s been feeling is the urge to show Kravitz, really show him, how much Taako cares about him. To make it… official. That he’s not going anywhere. Because Kravitz doesn’t live off of implications like Taako does, and maybe Taako’s a little tired of making him translate.
    Maybe Taako wants to do a little bit of the work for him, just once."
