    Summary

    “Y’know, I thought we had a lot of trainin’ to do when ya got outta prison last year… Looks like this time around we’re really gonna be startin’ from scratch.”

    There are multiple assumptions in that statement Kiryu wants clarification on, but he startles when he hears one thing specifically.

    “What do you mean ‘last year?’” Kiryu gapes. Majima fidgets, uncharacteristically awkward. He looks up at the ceiling and crosses his arms, letting his shoulders droop heavily. The image of Majima at a loss for words is completely uncharted territory; it takes Kiryu a moment to realize that is what he’s witnessing, and he feels the hairs on the back of his neck tingle as he realizes it must be bad. “Nii-san, how… How long was I down there?”

    “Ten months in the hole. Been here recoverin’ for three weeks.”

    Kiryu disappears after fighting Majima at Shangri-La. When he's rescued, he's in for a long recovery, and there's a lot he needs to catch up on. Majima refuses to let him do it alone.

    Summary

    Asking Kiryu on a date is supposed to be a joke. It’s just another in Majima’s long list of contrived reasons for Kiryu to get mad enough at him to fight him.

    So he’s thrown for a loop when Kiryu doesn’t answer him by punching him in face, but by accepting.

    Obviously Kiryu’s playing along, just like he did with the bartender scheme, and with Goromi, and everything else. Majima can work with that. There’s no way he’ll crack before Kiryu does.

    Or: Majima commits to the bit so hard he ends up in a long-term relationship.

    Summary

    Goromi rolls her head towards him on the wall. “Kiryu-chan, don’t make a liar outta me, I swear.”

    Kiryu frowns, no longer following her train of thought. “Huh?”

    A sharp finger jabs him in the arm. “I told ya already that I don’t do pity fucks. But you are really testin’ my patience, you big sad, sexy man.”

    Summary

    Half of the King in Yellow gets ejected through a portal on a failed ritual. To return, he must perform a human sacrifice - harder than it first seems, as the entity struggles to adapt to the peculiar ways of mortals. In a stroke of luck, he finds the perfect sacrifice in the form of one drunken, surly ex-PI: Arthur Lester.

    In the meanwhile, Arkham is in the swing of Prohibition and everyone knows how things work around here. A chance meeting and an abrupt kidnapping put John and Arthur on a case: one where secrets lurk behind every mask and blood flows thicker than gin.

    Summary

    John realizes what’s happening on the sixth loop.

    In retrospect, it’s fucking embarrassing that it took him so long to figure it out—that this isn’t an illusion, and it’s not him finally going mad, and it’s not a dream or a trick or a torment devised by the King to fuck with them. It’s not like he doesn’t know that time is as malleable as clay in the hands of gods. The Dark World taught him many lessons that he’d like to forget, and that’s one of them.

    It’s just been a little hard to concentrate when Arthur keeps fucking dying.

    .

    When John decides to stay with Arthur as he bleeds out on the King’s plateau, he expects them both to die. Instead, they find themselves brought back in time to the first moment they stepped onto the plateau—and Arthur has no recollection of their confrontation with the King. John soon realizes that they’re stuck in a time loop that restarts every time Arthur dies.

    Summary

    It is reflex. Consumption, for a being of this origin, even a fragment, is nature alone. To make another his, to own them, to bend them, to crack them open on the seams, to fester the wound with a thousand squirming limbs and peel it ever wider. He clings to Arthur and pets over his mind, feels it quiver beneath his touch.

    “It’s okay,” he breathes again. “You’re not hurting me. Just — let go, John. Take what you need, I’ll give it.”

    Summary

    The thump-thump-thump increases until it’s all John can hear, and quite frankly, he’s had enough. “Just calm down!” he snarls, and he clenches his hand into a fist, and then—

    And then, it stops.

    John has a single moment of blissful silence.

    Then, Arthur wheezes and crumples to the ground.

    .

    Or, John gains control of Arthur’s heart.

    Summary

    Taking advantage of relative safety, John and Arthur have a nice meal and a bottle of wine. It takes some time before they realize that certain god fragments are not immune to the effects of alcohol, and certain mortal men have recently lost a significant amount of blood. Confessions are made, plans are established, and a good rest is had by all.

    Summary

    "No?"

    Sugimoto lifted his head to look at the man kneeling between his legs. The man in question was fully dressed, slightly ruffled, had one of Sugimoto’s legs curled around his shoulder and was looking down at him with an intensely neutral expression of a swimming teacher trying to convince a scared kid to get in the water, but feeling a minute away from just throwing the brat in the middle of the pool and seeing if they emerge.

    "You already let me put your dick in my mouth and acknowledged you liked it. There’s no coming back from that, so why not go all the way?"

    Summary

    Hey, it’s not like Wolfwood can go to Hell any harder, right? It’s like, a one-and-done deal? Once someone sins, that’s pretty much it—damned for eternity and all that.

    It’s something of a comforting reminder that rolls through him as he collects the funds to exorcise this next “evil spirit”, one that slams doors and rattles the house’s fragile frame every day from dawn to dusk. An evil spirit Wolfwood’s fairly certain is simply heavy drafts caused by the brutal suns warming this shithole of a planet.

    It’s easy to spritz some holy water around the home. It’s also easy to wiggle their single, rickety window free, locking it shut. It makes the guilt lingering in his gut a bit more manageable.

    Wolfwood tries to get rid of the ghost that's haunting the town of Eden.
