    Arthur is dead. He's all too aware of his body decaying, too bad the King in Yellow won't let him die completely as long as he has John in his head.

    Summary

    When the weight of his trauma starts to wear Arthur a little too thin, John does the only thing that any disembodied spirit with one hand and one foot could do: he finds a pen. At least one of them knows when to ask for help.

    Summary

    A gasp broke through still air, followed by coughing, sputtering, and some frankly over-dramatized wheezing.

    Arthur! You’re awake! Are you okay? What happened!? Where-!?

    “Jesus, John,” a break for more coughing, “I- I don’t know, okay? My head feels fuzzy, I can't- I can't think.”

    His arm and John's angled behind them to prop up his torso. Had he sat down? He must’ve at some point. Or he’d fallen again. Actually, on second thought, it was almost definitely falling.

    What do you mean fuzzy? Like you hit your head or-?

    “No! No I-,” he shook his head, then the nothing of his vision began to swim and he quickly reevaluated, “Well, maybe actually. But no, I mean my thoughts. Everything’s coming through a bit jumbled, just give me a moment.”

    He sat there for a minute or two.

    "Where are we, John?"

    We’re at the edge of a dark forest.

    The man sighed, "Again?"

    TLDR:

    They're in Dracula now.

    Summary

    In the Dreamlands, after Arthur and John have both sacrificed themselves, after the newly-whole King leaves Arthur broken and bleeding and alone, John makes a deal with Kayne. He will regain his place in Arthur's body, his hand and foot and eyes, and he will be able to help Arthur survive these next few moments.

    The price, however, is Arthur's memories of their four months together.

    Radio City Music Hall, John read aloud. Something akin to awe colored his tone, something Arthur tried very hard not to find endearing. It's so...big.

    “Largest indoor theater in the world, so they say."

    Summary

    Life is loss and nothing more. In the late 1940s, local killer-for-hire Faroe Saltzman returns to her hometown of New York. While there, one Andrew Larson hires her to kill a familiar name - but it has to be a coincidence. After a brush with Arthur Lester leaves a manipulative, angry demon called John in her head, Faroe realizes there is so much more to this world than she thought.

    Summary

    Arthur had never been a vain man, at least no more than could be expected when attempting (for the last few years of his career) to foster an appearance of competence. He had no especially cruel thoughts about how he looked, nor did ego ever find perch on that particular branch of thinking. As for any other reasons he may want to cut a sharper figure, or draw an eye from across the room...well, they had no place in his life, and they hadn't for quite some time.

    Still, it was with no small amount of revulsion that he called to mind the appearance of each silver band. He knew which were neat and tidy, brief affairs meant to quell the urge, satiate the itch under his skin with a taste of metal. He knew which were jagged, and uneven, loudest in their protest as they roiled just above the surface of his skin like a tempest caught in moonlight.

    Summary

    "Do you want me to give you my theory?" The smile in Oscar's voice is clear, as if he knew exactly what was on Arthur's mind even though he had yet to figure it out himself.

    "It can't be worse than sitting here clueless," Arthur sighs, picking up his glass once more. "Go ahead."

    "I think you're jealous."

    Arthur chokes on the water he'd been sipping, slamming the cup back down to the table and attempting to protest through coughs. He can hear Oscar laughing at him, the bastard.

    "I'm not!"

    Summary

    As they're rowing out to the island (assuming they can find it), John finally remembers to ask. He had been musing over it for so long, it was almost odd to be able to voice his question at last and hopefully get answers.

    Arthur, what is a soulmark?

    “He meant that much to you?”

    “...I suppose he did.”

    Arthur and John defeat Kayne. They make it back to the present day New York and reunite with Daniel. However, it becomes apparent that writing “Knowing Oscar” at The Order’s meeting was not just an empty gesture.

    Summary

    There had been times, there, in the beginning of their acquaintanceship with one another, that Arthur would have liked nothing more than to rend the King’s fragment from the fabric of his psyche and have his own goddamn eyes returned to him. He would have done anything to make it so, even if that meant the suffering of John before he had ever had the chance to receive the name.

    And now he had both.

    For some reason, some god had smiled down upon him for the first time in his fucking life and he was able to stumble out of hell with all five senses and that second soul safely housed in its own flesh.

    Like a fucking miracle.

    He only wished his part of the miracle didn’t sting so violently.
    .
    .
    .
    Post ritual, John has acquired his own body and Arthur, his sight. Though, it doesn't seem to be going as well as he'd hoped.
