    Summary

    Grian knew a lot of things.

    He knew how to cook for a crew of 60 people. He knew how to clean and scrub the deck until his arms went numb. He knew how to avoid being the crew's punching bag for the night. He knew when to shut up and do what he was told.

    But most importantly — he knew not to hope.

    Because hoping hurts.

    So when a battle ends and an unfamiliar man steps into the kitchen, grinning at him like he’s not just another piece of plunder, Grian doesn’t know how to react. And when he’s led onto the deck to meet the pirate captain — the man who now holds his fate in his hands — he braces himself for another cage.

    Instead, he’s met with curiosity. Freedom. A handshake, instead of shackles.

    And, for the first time in years, a dangerous flicker of something he told himself he’d never feel again.

    Hope.

    or; A captured avian, a pirate crew, and a freedom he never dared to hope for

    Summary

    There’s a hand on his shoulder, barely making contact. A red gauntlet glows around the wrist.

    Sonic blinks, the pain having evaporated so fast he feels almost weightless. “Shadow?”

    Shadow’s breathing heavily. “Problem.”

    The retrieval of the ancient tech Shadow (and Sonic, in tow) has been sent to uncover takes a turn for the worst. In this case, the “worst” means… becoming physically and inextricably linked to each other. For the foreseeable future.

    OR: Metaphysical handcuffs, and general gay buffoonery.

    Summary

    Lancelot’s devotion to his king was undying and obvious in every kneeled greeting. Yet the affection hidden in every kiss to his king’s gauntlet was improper for a knight to feel towards his king.

    Sonic did not want to be king. He has grown close to Lancelot, whose formality remains rigid while Sonic wishes they could simply disregard titles. Sonic will do what he must for Lancelot to see himself as Sonic’s equal, even if that means he must kneel for their eyes to meet.

    OR Lancelot thinks his affection is improper. Sonic is just an enamored, but does not want to act on his feelings until Lancelot sees them as equals. It becomes a habit for Sonic to help remove Lancelot's armor at night

    Summary

    Sonic is restless and Shadow has nightmares. Often, they find each other in the night and spar instead of sleeping. When not sparring in a way that looks similar to a murder attempt, they may be found being soft, opening up, and (literally) sleeping together.

    Shadow is trying to learn how to heal. In attempt to give everyone a chance to be happy, he has to extend that to himself, and doing so means letting the people he cares about grow closer to him (even if it hurts).

    Summary

    Shadow finds Stone sitting next to the Thames, still in London. Stone doesn’t say anything as Shadow sits down just out of arm’s reach, both of them staring up at the broken moon above.

    It takes a moment for Shadow to gather his thoughts to speak.

    “Do not try to blow up the planet. It’s not worth it.”
