    Summary

    The sun is warm on Ignis’ face as he stands at the window of the hotel room in Lestallum. He stands there so long he can sense the sun drop out of the sky, the shadow of evening drawing the warmth away.

    He hears Gladio preparing for his mercy run: a round-trip to the Crown City for medications that will ease Prompto's pain.

    Gladio comes to stand beside him. It's a few moments before he speaks, and when does his voice is loaded with grief. "I don’t think he’s got more than three days in him."

    They are long past hiding their grief from each other. Ignis doesn't move his face away from the last of the sun's heat, and has to force his voice out of hiding when he says, "I don’t think he has even that."

    (In which Ignis and Gladio once more see a brother to the other side.)

    Summary

    Prompto is supposed to attend the ceremony Ignis organized for the anniversary. For the Dawn. Noct’s official funeral, technically, since only the three of them had been there the first time around, and Noctis didn’t belong to just him, or them, anymore. Prompto promised he’d be there just before sunrise as long as he didn’t have to say anything, promised he’d stand up with Ignis and Gladio and try to honor Noctis the way he deserved. Actually pay attention to the sunrise with them this time, instead of burying his face in blood-soaked clothes and crying like the world’s ending instead of starting over.

    But some asshole, dozens of them, all around Insomnia, starts lighting fireworks. Bright bursts of sound and color, all through the night before, reminders that everyone on this planet is happy that Noct is dead and Prompto’s only got two options left: explode or run.

    So he runs.

    Summary

    "When the time came to slay the Accursed, the Dawn King and his Crownsguard made their way back to where they’d started in the heart of the ruined Crown City. There, King Noctis battled the Accursed and his Starscourge, and with the magic of his ancestors he sealed it away, placing himself as the key to the lock on the Darkness. As long as he sits on the throne, the Scourge remains sealed, and all of Eos is safe from it."

    ---

    The Starscourge can never be truly destroyed, only sealed. Noctis Lucis Caelum's life isn't sacrificed—instead, it is used, his lifeforce employed to hold the darkness at bay.

    The legend of the Dawn King, eternally pinned to his throne and kept alive by the magic of his ancestors, is born.

    Summary

    This dumb kid. This dumb, idiotic kid with the big title and the hopes of a country on his shoulders. He’s gonna need to grow up and out of this attitude, but when?

    He’s gone from shielding a little girl from the wrath of her asshole big brother, to hiding the pain flares that leave him incapacitated, to sending himself spiraling into stasis trying to make enough curatives for the Glaives on duty, to this. What’s next?

    (Noctis takes the hit for Prompto.)

    Summary

    Being seventeen meant he was horny, like, all of the time. Being horny all of the time meant his hyperactive dick took everything out of context. A stiff breeze in the park while taking pictures of ducks meant Prompto looked like some weird duck pervert. Noct’s hands loop the tie around his neck and start doing up the knot and Prompto furiously thinks about ducks and not about his dick because he is standing in his underwear in Noct’s closet with his hands doing non-horny things in front of him.

    “Donald Duck casting Zettaflare in Kingdom Hearts 3 makes him one of the strongest casters in Square Enix lore.” He blurts desperately.

    Noct’s hands still while he fixes Prompto with A Look.

    “Donald Duck.”

    Prompto shivers, like some stupid duck pervert.

    Summary

    Noctis wasn't a fool; he knew Prompto had a habit of lying misdirection. Like they always had, the two danced around one another: Noctis lacked the words to articulate his concern, fumbling awkwardly as he tried to understand; Prompto would simply offer a sanguine grin as he skipped out of reach. He caught Noctis looking at him intensely at times, not staring but rather searching, as though he were a puzzle he couldn't figure out. Prompto's answer was a toothy grin and chipper wave, as if he didn't know precisely the question dancing on the tip of his friend's tongue.

    Summary

    Noctis is still laughing when Ignis reaches their table, and tilts a crooked grin up at his advisor, all soft edges and brightness despite the tired shadows under his eyes. Ignis can’t help but smile back, can’t help the curl of warm fondness that fills his chest as he turns to greet Prompto in turn.

    Prompto looks surprised by the hello but it only takes him a moment to recover. “Hey, Iggy,” he says, pink-faced and pleased.

    All I'm saying is being raised by a coach dad and a stage mom, watching them die, and then being taken in by a Very British butler and an autistic billionaire who dresses up like a bat to terrorize criminals would Do Things to a child's brain. Psychiatrists would pay to study Dick Grayson's psyche under a microscope.

    Summary

    “Come on, Steve, you were just complimenting me on my investigative skills. You think I turn them off when I’m not working?” He runs his hand through his hair—god, he hates this haircut. “Nine years we’ve been dancing around this, making eyes at each other, claiming we’re not what we are, and then you just pop up in my house on a random Wednesday and jump my bones, just like that? You think it’s hard, making sense of you? I hate to break it to you, my friend, but you are not what’s called a complex character, you absolutely are not.”

    Steve’s nodding, absent little dips of his head. His eyebrows have set into his mule face. Danny wants to hug him, but also punch him; he might yet, both, either—the night is young. “Will you just tell me, please?” he repeats.

    Or Danny's life takes a sharp turn on a random weeknight, and he finds himself balancing the murder investigation of a Colombian woman with figuring out what is causing Steve's odd behavior.

    “Well, why don’t you train with me?” Erik asks. He tries to sound casual, even magnanimous. Not to make it obvious that the idea of Charles in his head twists at some nameless place inside him, irresistible and not entirely pleasant, like pulling at a scab.

    Nelson tolerated Clint as folks tolerate road cones.

    They were there. They were inconvenient. They were annoying. But ultimately, they weren’t doing any overt harm.

    Page, on the other hand, Clint thought, was in the process of hiring someone to kill him.

    (Clint falls hard for his lawyer's partner, but nothing can be easy for him (until it can be).)

    Summary

    When he’s like this, there’s only a few things that can make him fuckin stand up and act like a normal person:

    1. Peer pressure (or help, as some people would call it). After Man City, Roy would drag him out of bed, cook for him, and watch Jamie like a hawk until he’d eaten at least a third of the meal. Then, and only then, could he migrate back to his bed, or, if he was feeling adventurous, the sofa, where Roy would put some shitty movie on and sit with him, every so often stroking the back of Jamie’s neck with his thumb.
    2. If he really needs to piss. Pretty self-explanatory.
    3. The razor in his en suite.

    ‘’You know the Mad Hatter?’’

    An involuntary shiver runs up Roy’s spine.

    ‘’Jarvis Tetch? Short little freak with a hard-on for Alice in Wonderland? Yeah, Wings' mentioned him, once or twice. Dabbles in mind control. Gives me the creeps.’’

    ‘’Well, back in the day he built this thing called the Dream Machine, trapped its victim in a kind of dream world. It seems someone found the blueprint. Spruced it up a bit.’’

    A cold feeling settles in Roy’s stomach.

    ‘’You’re saying…’’

    ‘’You’re looking at the Dream Machine 2.0.’’

    Or: Dick is dreaming and Roy needs to get him out. He learns a lot of things along the way, things Dick would've preferred to keep buried.

    Maybe I am sad, he thinks, if only because it’s smart to go down that avenue before discounting it entirely. Scientists are open to all possible conclusions. Perhaps Dick is, in fact, sad.
