Some Say It Is a Cradle, Others Say a Tomb by illmetkismet

Summary
This is living, the Outsider thinks, while splashing water on his face to wake up. This is living – while digging a sliver of glass out of the sole of his foot. He shouldn’t have taken his boots off the night before. The little wound aches all morning on his walk to procure more fruit, so he uses most of the coin Billie left him that day to buy a pot of salve that claims to be ‘Thoroughly Proven To Eradicate All Manners Of Infection And Promote Speedy Healing!’ in bold print on the packaging. This, too, is living. And this, as the day drags on. And this.
A long, slow, sometimes painful, sometimes sexy exploration of the Outsider coming to terms with his humanity, following DotO. Corvo does show up eventually, I promise!

DotO spoilers implied/post non-lethal ending
It takes more than learning to see through different eyes. Feel across new flesh. He has to decide who he is, first. What he wants, second.

Summary
Corvo Attano considers himself a man of simple pleasures, if complex circumstances. He never asked for this. But now that he has the Outsider's final gift, he intends to use it to better the world that he remains tethered to. But so too, is he connected to the Void.
The Outsider just couldn't bear to see him disappear.

Summary
Somewhere in between Zagreus’ cocky smirk and the splash of red across the arena, temptation has weaseled into the king’s unsuspecting veins. What a true villain Zagreus was! For even when Theseus seized his triumph, it was Zagreus who has left that rancid curse in his wake. It is the only explanation for why Theseus’ victories begin to slip, for why his words falter and his cheeks flare hot when Zagreus needles him.
And why, gods above, can he not stop thinking of him?

“Were you being genuine? About wanting to repent?”
“Yes.”
When Attano speaks next, Daud can hear the hungry smile under the Serkonan lilt, even through the mask’s filter. “I could give you a chance for that.”

In lucid moments he pretends he’d be more confident the first time they lay together, but in the throes of passion like he is now, he knows the truth: he’ll be putty in Zag’s hands.

Summary
“You’re so beautiful,” Zagreus whispers as if it’s a confession. He’s breathless with the truth of it. He kisses Than’s jaw before finding his lips. His skin thrills beneath Than’s touch. His heart lurches. “I—Than… you were just so beautiful.”
Speaking it doesn’t ease the pain; his chest feels as if it will crack, sending the love multiplying within him spilling forth, but such sublime suffering it is.
Than gets the recognition he deserves.

Summary
A few days after Emily is restored to the throne, Daud wakes up to find Corvo lurking by his bed, with few words and no explanation. Faced with the consequences of their actions, both men have sworn off killing, but that doesn't change who they are. Daud still can't abide a mystery - like why the royal protector is wasting valuable time in the flooded district - and finds a different way to take his anger out on Corvo. Even if that means a drawn out game of gay chicken.

And a much older Corvo Attano finds a younger version of his lover meandering around his home, dressed as an overseer.

Summary
Thanatos is Death Incarnate, and so he used to think he had no interest in "creating life". Now that they are grown, he's starting to reconsider that around Zagreus. He's nervous though - what if he doesn't actually care for touch? Thanatos may not be sure what he wants, but he definitely doesn't want Zagreus to feel like an experiment.
And well, Zag trusts Achilles in all things.
Thanatos chooses to trust Achilles, too.
