    Summary

    “You finally came out of your room.” The words sting, and he fiddles with the threadbare shirt he wears, feeling suddenly small and incompetent, dirty like forgotten wood left to rot in a shed. The papers like to call them Mr. Czernin and the young Czernin, identity blending into one— all Czernin, always Czernin, no space for Matthias. He'll have to carve it out himself if he wants it. Demand his name spoken out loud by anyone who'll listen. A Matyáš shaped hole in the glittering opulence. He averts his gaze from his father's face and finds the puppet's glass eyes instead, and then promptly chooses to find refuge in the floor, tracing the wooden grooves over and over again.

    (OR: Matthias confronts greasy hair, his father, and the small parts of his life where Louis has left his mark.)

    Summary

    “Oh… yes, that. I found something nicer for you to wear,” and it is almost strange how the dress is the sole item that had been spared the wrath of rain. That, Jack knew where it was, and the oddity that Philippe found in it being misplaced from where he initially packed it. “It would compliment your figure quite well.”

    It isn’t long until Jack has smoothed the creases of the garment, presenting it as if it were a gift, hoisted upright in the hair in all his enthusiasm (and—for Jack, enthusiasm was a slightly larger smile than his typical one). “Will you at least let me look at you in it? Consider it…” there is a lull in the conversation, fetching words, and Philippe notes the subtleties of his demeanor. The way in which is jaw constricts and tightens as he speaks the next words. “A team-building exercise.”

    Grief is a dress Philippe wears well. Jack will always be grateful to watch him model.

    Summary

    Ada has never been very honest about her fear with Emil, and how could she be? He himself was so consumed by it, she couldn’t possibly push more onto him. It’s been a few weeks since they escaped White Sand Street, it might be difficult for her to continue hiding it.

    Summary

    How cruel Joseph is; planting that seed of the suggestion in Aesop's head and not taking the responsibility of picking out the fruit that the tree had borne. It's simply teasing as how he ever does, yet Aesop found himself bound by thinking about it.

    'I know you adore the idea of me, so helpless in my sleep…and you take advantage of it like a criminal doing evil things…'

    'Like an angel who'd been stripped of its wings because of the sins it committed… Mon pécheur…'

    Summary

    Aesop wanders through messy stacks upon stacks of musty books, some with old coffee mugs littered on the top. In no time, he finds himself stumbling onto a desk- the only desk in the whole building that is cleaned off with a little space ready to work. Behind it is a man with round glasses and white hair in a side ponytail. A blue coat hangs over his chair. In his hand is a mug of coffee that splashes with Aesop’s embarrassing slip.

    “I’m sorry, I missed my step and-” Aesop looks up to make eye contact with the brightest blue eyes he has ever seen. “-I’m sorry.”

    The man chuckles, “it’s my own fault. I have a hunch that this place is beyond repair. Now, if I may ask, what are you doing here? Visitors are quite rare.”

    “Actually, I’m no visitor. I’m supposed to be the new volunteer.” Aesop was hesitant about revealing the truth. He has nowhere to run now.
    ___

    Or: Aesop needs more volunteer hours to apply for his masters and the only position he gets is at the rundown library.

    Summary

    Waking up next to Aesop was always an experience, the shorter man’s sleeping habits are the opposite to his solemn personality. Many would expect the somber Mr.Carl to have proper sleeping habits, still as a log, but Joseph knows it is the exact opposite.

    Or 5 times Joseph woke up to Aesop's sleeping habits and 1 time Aesop woke up before Joseph does.

    Summary

    "I- I noticed you seperate your food." Eli starts. He sounds nervous.

    "You don't like it touching, so I thought I could do it for you. So you wouldn't have to..."

    He shrugs. He bites at his lips.

    They are chapped.

    "So you wouldn't have to- do it yourself. You know."

    Summary

    'He blinks for a moment, shaken by the memory, almost looking distant for a moment. Eli couldn’t see his face, perse, but… He could tell. It’s almost scary how quickly Aesop nods, the tears falling from his bottom eyelashes and pressing into the thin fabric of his mask as he stands.'

    Aesop learns that he doesn't enjoy watching people die. Not anymore.

    Summary

    Edgar was always closed off and aggressive, he never stood for anyone's mistreatment of him but his own. His standards were so high he couldn't see past them, and they were starting to eat him up. Especially the ones regarding his body.

    Norton Campbell is the last person he wanted to involve himself with, jealous and frustrated when it came to even just the sight of him. He wished he was born differently.

    Summary

    “You know, I never took you as the type to ask for sex. Or, well, even have it… This won’t be your first time, will it?”

    Aesop wanted to stab him. Straight into that giant grin of his. Fiona, who had been conveniently walking by, tried not to laugh at the pair, covering her mouth to hide any sign of a grin. “Would you shut it? Can we not even walk ten feet without you talking?” Norton merely huffed, barely intimidated by Aesop’s sharp hiss.

    Summary

    Kevin scratched the back of his neck and did his best to offer a bemused smile. Usually, he’d be quick to coax the other person into bed with soft words and touches, but Norton was not like most people. “But I’m here now, ain’t I?”

    “Don’t seem the type, do I?” Norton grinned instead of answering, wry and sharp and fleeting. His hat was missing, Kevin realized belatedly, and his hair was tousled into disorganized waves.

    Summary

    Emil doesn't like razors.
    ----
    He makes an irritated sound, somewhere low in his throat. She finishes her brushing, waiting patiently. Eventually, it pays off. "Ada."

    "Yes Emil?"

    "You w-won't cut me."

    He says it without the inflection of a question, but Ada knows better. "Of course I won't. Steady hands, remember?"

    "S-Surgeon's hands."

    She can't help her smile. "I'll be gentle. I'll go slow, and I won't nick you. Give me a moment to get everything ready."

    Summary

    “Listen carefully, petit lapin. I am going to take you-” Aesop’s breath hitches as ice cold fingers brush gently, mockingly, against his cheek - “bound hand to foot, at my mercy, helpless as you struggle in the air. You may try to escape like what happened last time, but I will catch you again. I am going to take you down into the basement, and I will punish you for your insubordination. By the time I am done with you, you will be a quivering mess, shaking at the mere sound of my voice and ghost of my touch. Do you understand?”
