    Summary

    Working at the funeral home taught III three things. The dead stay quiet - the living don't. And never get involved in the business of either. Too bad he's always sucked at that last part. Especially when his neighbor hosts loud nightly 'therapy sessions' with someone new each time, while the missing persons board down the hall keeps getting more crowded

    Sleep Token Creative Guild Spooky Week Day 7 + Angstober 31st: "Torture" and "Close the Door"

    The whole set had been hard — too much heat, lights pointed just far enough into the stage to nail them in the face every cue, wrong pacing in the second half thanks to the mic screaming feedback partway through, half of their pedals shorting out before the encore. But they had all powered through like they always did. III especially, sweat-slicked and grinning like he had something to prove, even if his chords sounded on the edge of too harsh, and his smile was just slightly too sharp.

    IV hadn’t seen him since.

    Summary

    He'd long since learned to ignore others' expectations. But sometimes III caught himself wishing others would finally see what was so obvious to him. If only to make the stupid questions stop.

    Summary

    To everyone's shock, the prison riots worked. Phillip Turpin is arrested and Benjamin is free after over fifteen years of a false charge. He begins taking back his life, beginning with his daughter. However, the word "father" tastes like poison in Johanna's mouth after what her guardian did her to and a flighty girl always has her wings outstretched.

    Or: Benjamin gets his daughter back, but he's used to being the parent of an infant. Not a traumatized teenager.
