    Summary

    He fully expects Elliot to have his head down in a book, because that's what Elliot always does at Trigon games, act like he doesn't know or care what's happening and this is all just an annoying interruption of his reading time. But he isn't doing that this time.

    The last Trigon game of the year.

    Summary

    The thing is, Luke knows that he’s important to Elliot.

    And Luke loves Elliot. He knows he does; he has loved Elliot nearly as long as he’s known him, even if it took him much longer to accept it. And as much as he wonders, he’s never thought to ask, to demand Elliot put a name to his feelings.

    Part of him is afraid of the answer, should push come to shove. Doesn’t know what answer he wants.

    (He does; of course he does. But Luke Sunborn has always been stubborn, and he has always been exceedingly good at lying to himself.)

    Summary

    If Serene thinks it’s safe, I trust her as much as always. If you’ve lied about Serene approving to get me to agree, I trust you as much as always. Which is not at all. Do not get hurt, do not get captured, do not get married to someone else.
    If, by some Schafer miracle, you are already hurt, captured, or married, and I am speaking to your captor/spouse: keep him. And my deepest sympathies.

     

    Elliot Schafer wakes up alone, with no memory of the Borderlands or the people within them. But he can probably fake it, right?

    Summary

    “Has anything strange ever happened in your house? Like some houses get really cold for no reason, or people hear things banging about when there's no one there.”
    “That sounds terrible,” Elliot says, “I'm glad it's never happened where I live.”
    ~~
    When Elliot develops the ability to see the ties that bind ghosts to their living hosts, he is recruited into a government program to train future paranormal investigators. The problem? Elliot lives in a haunted house, and no one wants the ghost to leave.

    Summary

    He waits until Luke leaves before forcing himself up on trembling limbs. One of his hoodies is shoved in his backpack, and he pulls it over his head without looking at his hands. Then he crawls back into bed.

    It’s the last time he gets up for three days. He doesn’t tell anybody why.

    Adam Sunborn doesn't take 'no' for an answer, and Elliot isn't quite as able to get away.

    Summary

    Perhaps Luke had never been in the practice of thinking of himself as a desperate romantic, but he had long been in the practice of thinking of himself as a social catastrophe. It was both inevitable and depressing to know that these two experiences should have so much to do with one another.

    Luke thereafter resolved to stop being so pathetic. And then spent the next hour once more contemplating the texture of red curly hair.

    Resolutions remained unmet.

    AKA: the summer before Elliot turned fourteen, from Luke’s embarrassingly besotted perspective.

    Summary

    He doesn’t write, but so am I, because the first thing I've been told about this festival was how it had always been about coming home. He doesn’t write, as though his fingers do not ache with longing: I'm a hypocrite because I can't say it. I can't say it like they can. I can't say it like you can.

    Please come back safe. Don't be stupid. Come home to me.

    Or: Elliot, seven years in the future, and sometime before the battle at Deepfort.

    Summary

    Five times Elliot is asked to visit, and one time he’s asked to stay.

    “Elliot, I told you this was a bad idea,” Luke hisses behind him. “If even the elves can’t handle the dragons, what makes you think you can?”

    “Listen, loser,” Elliot begins. “In certain circles I am just as charming as the elves, as you should know by now, and—”

    Whatever Elliot was going to say is immediately erased from his mind because Commander Woodsinger has come to a dead stop in front of a small copse of trees, and they get their first glimpse of the dragons.

    And, well.

    They’re tiny.
