    Summary

    Humanity was for people without metal in their heads. Humanity was for people capable of thick empathy.

    Nathaniel was a collaborative project assembled by the most expensive hands imaginable. His greatest fear was that someday, he would find all his fleshy parts replaced entirely by machine. He would look in a mirror and see none of himself.

    He had to escape before that happened.

    Summary

    Neil swallows back blood. “Andrew.”

    “Abram,” Andrew returns.

    “I’m losing my mind. I think I’m losing my mind.”

    “You aren’t,” Andrew says, so easy, so certain. “You’re tired. You’re scared. That’s it.”

    Neil grits his teeth. “I’m,” he exhales shakily. “I’m – seeing things,” he admits.

    In which Andrew gets into a car accident one week into the off-season, and everything is fine right up until he starts dying every night in Neil’s dreams. Things get worse, and then they get better.

    Or, how trauma and triggers persist even after decades of safety, and how Andrew and Neil navigate them and take care of each other throughout it all.

    Summary

    "First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."

    As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.

    "Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.

    "Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.

    "Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."

    Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.

    "A what?" he asked.

    Summary

    “Nicky, what the fuck! Why are you drenched? Did you seriously walk here?!” Aaron shouted from next to Nicky, still holding the door open and letting the rain in like a dumbass.

    “Surprise!” Nicky exclaimed with a deranged hitch in his voice as he dropped the ruined jacket onto the floor and lifted something small and wet above him.

    The thing yowled pitifully at them.

    --

    In which Nicky finds a stray, feral kitten and brings it home, while Neil finds a family and a reason to stay.

    Summary

    “And when he’s gone?” Andrew asked.
    Then I’m gone too, Neil thought, but didn’t say. There likely wouldn’t be any reason for Neil to run, but he was going to, anyway. Everyone looking for him would be dead or in jail by the time the FBI was done, but Neil had never been taught to stay in one place. He wasn’t sure if he even knew how. All Neil knew how to do was disappear.
    “I’ll be alone, I guess,” Neil said with a shrug.
    “Lucky you,” Andrew said. He flicked his cigarette butt off the roof and onto the sidewalk below them.
    “Yeah,” Neil said. He stubbed his cigarette out on the sole of his shoe and tossed it over the side of the building after Andrew’s. “Lucky me.”

    or: neil is an insomniac. andrew is going to beijing. they aren't supposed to meet, but they do anyway.

    Summary

    SEQUEL TO: [don't break the glass]

    [While trying to get a fresh start in Palmetto, Neil's dark past has a way of creeping up on him. Andrew won't be letting him go so easily this time. Jean struggles with recurrent memories of the Nest and Jeremy bites off more than he can chew. Kevin and Aaron explore new ways of defining their relationship.]

    Summary

    An AU where Mary never got Nathaniel out. Instead, he became too invaluable of an asset to be killed off or 'gifted' to Tetsuji. Instead, he's raised with Ichirou and Jean as a part of Ichirou's inner circle.

    He'd always had a knack for languages and lying and all the 'messy stuff' came easily enough when your father is called the Butcher of Baltimore. So Nathaniel became the Wraith. He was untraceable, unknowable, infalliable; a criminal fairytale.

    When Kevin Day leaves the Nest, there's no better person to send.

    ~

    "Who the hell are you?" Andrew demanded.

    He wasn't anyone, not really; not anymore. He hadn't really been anyone in years now. There'd been a time. Once. But there were entire lifetimes between who he could have been and what he'd become. He could taste it sometimes; blackberries and sand stinging his tongue like the iron branded on his shoulder.

    It was easier to pretend he'd never been anyone at all.

    "I'm nothing," he answered. The ghost of a smile pulled at his lips; sharp and cruel. "A wraith." The Wraith, he didn't say, but the shadows ran through Andrew's eyes and he wondered if Andrew had heard it anyways.

    Summary

    “He’s joining us earlier than we anticipated.”

    “He’s a flight risk. This way there should be no more risk of him getting away from you. I’ve killed his mother. He belongs to you.”

    “Six years old and already training in the Raven’s nest. He will be a player that won’t be rivaled.”

    Nathaniel lives a hard life in the ravens nest, choosing Jean and Kevin's safety and happiness over his own constantly. Like the martyr he is. Then one day he is given a chance. It's a fools bet, and Nathaniel is unlikely to win it.

    But he has one season to take the Foxes to championships and win.

    If he doesn't, well.. he doesn't like the other options.

    So he makes his own. Win or die.
