    Summary

    After the Torchbearer is revealed to have been an illusion for the past six years, Clancy feels himself suddenly lost in a world where he's not entirely sure what's real or not, unable to trust his surrondings.

    The Torchbearer is there, a grounding figure, but the source of all his problems at once. During which, the Banditos still look up to both of them to lead them through this rebellion.

    Will they both make it out in the end?

    Summary

    "You always have a choice," Josh had whispered then, repeatedly, like a prayer, or an incantation. He had climbed into Tyler’s bed and cradled him, silently pleading for a sign that Tyler was still in there, and Tyler couldn’t even give it. His body had been still, too still, his heart rate slow. A slight tremor pulsed through him every couple minutes, and his muscles ached with even just that miniscule movement. With each shiver, Josh held him tighter, but Tyler felt himself slipping away— slipping into that easier world, where all he had to do was obey. He was so damn tired of choices. He was so damn tired of fighting. "Never forget that, Tyler. You always have a choice."

    Summary

    Torch thinks Clancy looks hot when he’s wearing a flower crown. Maybe a little too hot (if that was even possible).

    And hey, what’s better than lying in a flower field with his husband? They’re definitely not doing more than that.

    Summary

    “Antlers have always been a sign of transformation in nature,” He remembered Torch telling him shortly after they had come into his possession, “antlered creatures, such as deer, grow them as a form of defence, then when spring appears on the horizon, they shed them, leaving them behind. Then the cycle repeats itself.”

    Do they use them to defend? Or do they use them to attack?

    At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. Deer are still prey.

    or: at the realisation he had been alone for 6 years, Clancy begins to wonder what else The Torchbearer has been keeping from him.

    Summary

    Josh looks over and tries to make eye-contact but Clancy is looking at the ground again. "We first saw each other... the first time you escaped."

    "Well uh, yeah. Here I am." Clancy frowns and looks at him. "We just met. I just escaped."

    "Six escapes ago. I saw you walking in this valley... just along there. I was up there." He pointed. "Nico took you back before we could get to you."

    Clancy laughs. There's no mirth in it. He sounds terrified. "Oh, no. No no, I've never been here before."

    [A canon compliant retelling of the lore. Equal parts Clancy and Torchbearer POV. In which Clancy doubts everything he does, and TB loses his best friend like 50 times.]

    Summary

    The singing stopped, the wind picking up speed as it pushed past their bodies in a rush. “Are you scared?”

    Torchbearer didn’t look away from where he had turned back to the horizon as he caught the last of the sunset, only offering Clancy a shoulder. “No. I’m ready.”

    Summary

    There's a familiar ache that comes with the beginnings of sickness that Clancy always hated. The gnawing in his bones as his muscles start to protest at any small movement, the pounding in his head that makes the world spin, and a crawling heat that quickly morphs into a fever.

    Summary

    The truth was, Clancy wasn't the only one with new powers after Voldsoy. After some getting used to his ability to influence others while guiding them, the Torchbearer learned to take it a step farther. Instead of guiding their actions, guiding their thoughts, letting them only focus on following his projection out of Dema, without paying heed to Dema’s call to come, Trench’s bitter cold, or the Bishops’ recent teachings about a man in green.

    Summary

    They were a much smaller group, then—more akin to a group of mismatched friends than to an organization. Now, the camp is sprawling, stretching across the entire glade, some of the far tents even reaching beyond the line of the narrow trees.
    God, he’s missed so much.

    /or/

    finally free from his years of imprisonment in dema, clancy struggles to handle the way things have changed.

    Summary

    Tyler isn't always Clancy, and he might have made his best friend, Josh, up, but really, none of that matters in the grand scheme of things. Tyler's too scared to escape, too scared to stand up to the Bishops, but that's where Clancy comes in.

    Clancy's Original Journal - The entries that inspired a revolution

    A head canon theory of what I believe truly happened in this story. Some entries will be longer others shorter, some are the original letters themselves, all to fill in the gap of what could be missing in this story.

    Summary

    “Tyler.”

    Clancy stops at the name. His chest is heaving, fighting to get enough oxygen. His head is spinning, heart torn between wanting to push away the man standing behind him, and falling into his arms to sink into the blissful abyss of his embrace.

    “I haven’t heard that name in 6 years.”

    He hopes the reminder hurts.

    Torch flinches. It does.
