    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

    "What's John saying?"
    Tell him I'm asking what's wrong with you!
    "I don't…" Arthur screws his eyes shut and John groans in irritation. It's cut off when Arthur finishes with, "Who?"
    Who?! John! Me!

    Summary

    It is disproportionately confusing, like showing up at his home address only to find a different house on the lot. It isn’t like that, though. No part of this should feel wrong.

    Noel’s fingers are touching his wrist. “John?”

    “It’s fine.”

    “You know,” Noel says, moving to get the bandages. “You’re only a little better at lying these days, daffodil.”

    Summary

    John could not stop staring at hands.

    His, to be exact, and Arthur’s. The left hands.

    He supposed he could call them both his hands, but that felt… wrong. Or, not entirely wrong, but mostly wrong. Much as the grooves along Arthur’s palm— kept hidden and intimate within the hold of thin fingers— felt like an old home to John, he could not bring himself to leave his signature on the deed.

    Instead, over the days, his eyes kept tracing the line of fine bone across the back of the hand, following them to their ends to find the start of fine, dark splinters laced into flesh.

    ---

    John has a body. Whose it is has yet to be determined.
