Summary
Steve Harrington had always been one to jump in the middle of the action to protect his kids--even if that meant putting his life on the line. Even if that meant being the sacrifice, left to barricade a door by himself against a literal army of Russians.
He had called to Robin--hoping for one fleeting moment that she would help him. Hoping that for once, he wouldn't be completely alone.
But she left. She left him all alone to hold the door.
This was fine. He was fine. He could survive this... right?
----
Or, what would happen if instead of helping Steve hold the door closed and getting caught by the Russians together, Robin ran and left Steve all alone? -

Summary
Thjazi likes to tell himself that if he knew how this would go he would have done things differently. When he looks back, there are branching paths, clear as day, that would have led somewhere else. Better or worse, it wouldn't have been this way.
This isn't his story, though. It's Azune's.

Summary
In a cell steeped in cruelty, Jack tends to a man called Robinavitch. Blood, defiance, and small acts of kindness blur the line between duty and something far more complicated. Together, captive and captor, soldier and healer navigate a world of cruelty, survival, and fleeting moments of mercy.
—————
The first time Jack saw the prisoner was through the bars of a cell door.
His captain had brought him down the corridor at an impatient, almost predatory pace, like a hunter eager to show off a kill. That’s how Jack arrived on the outside of the cramped cell.
There was a man hanging in the center of it, from a short chain bolted to the ceiling.

Summary
When Mollymauk found an average day, as much as one existed with a traveling carnival, thrown off by the sudden appearance of a stranger attempting to rob him, a look too familiar for his comfort in bright blue eyes.
Caleb had just wanted to steal one thing from the carnival and get out of there before anyone was the wiser. Too bad he got caught before he could leave, right?
And yet... perhaps more will change than either of them could ever guess, just from the small chance that their paths crossed.

Summary
“… Who are you?” the tiny child in front of them asks, backing away a step and glancing nervously between all of them. “You aren’t Kokiri.”
“Nah, we’re way cooler than Kokiri.” Wind recovers first, and he moves to the front of the group and kneels down with a bright grin. “I’m Wind, what’s your name?”
Time - he’s smaller than Four, dear Hylia he’s so little - blinks at him, then ducks his head a bit. Hyrule notices that he’s holding a fistful of the fabric of his tunic, like Hyrule does when he gets nervous. “… Link.”
