    Summary

    “Stressed about the move?” Charlie asks.

    “Yeah. I guess. Mostly just worried about how I’m gonna live more than a week with you as a roommate.”

    It’s a joke, so Charlie laughs. “Man, I get it. It’s a long way from home for me, too.”

    “Yeah,” Schlatt says. His voice cracks. “Yeah. At least I’ll have you guys, though. I’ll be fine.”

    “Right,” Charlie says. “We’ll be fine.”

    Schlatt’s quiet. The blinds rustle again. “It’s fuckin’ snowing,” comes his broken voice. “Charlie.”

    “I know,” Charlie swallows. “I -“

    “It’s July,” Schlatt says. “God, Charlie. It’s July.”

    ~

    The world ends, and Charlie buys a radio.

    Summary

    Bdubs scoffed. “Etho, why in the world have you called me out of the blue just to ask about how my day went?”

    There was a pause. Etho dropped his head to the ground again, too tired to hold it up anymore. He shifted his left arm so the communicator lay close to his head, allowing him to speak quieter. He didn’t feel like he had the strength to keep speaking so loudly.

    His eyes were heavy, and all he wanted was to fall asleep right now, listening to Bdubs' voice until he couldn’t hear anything at all.

    “Etho?”

    ---

    Prompt: Character A is about to die, and rather than try to get help, he calls Character B to talk to him one last time before he goes.

    Except Bdubs won't let Etho die.

    Summary

    So maybe everything didn't work out perfectly for Harry. Still, most of his friends survived, he'd gotten married, and was about to become a father. If only he'd have stayed away from the Veil, he wouldn't have had to go back and do everything AGAIN.

    Summary

    Phil sidles closer, chin tucked in propped up elbows.

    “Penny for your thoughts?” He asks softly.

    And maybe alcohol loosens the tongue, or weeks long pondering gives way to resolve, or some mixture of both, and Techno hums thoughtfully, and he asks,

    “Will you mourn me, when I die?”
