    Summary

    The problem is River.

    Or, more specifically, it’s the way that every time Louisa blinks, the afterimage of River laying on the ground between those shelves, covered in debris, is burned into the backs of her eyelids. It wouldn’t have been so bad, probably, if he hadn’t had to take off immediately to deal with that folder, or if Louisa had said fuck the debrief and gone with him. If they hadn’t been separated right after making it out of the hatch, they — or, at least, Louisa would probably be fine.

    But they were. Separated.

    --

    Post season 3. Louisa and River share a bowl of dry cereal, a difficult conversation, and a bed, in that order.

    Summary

    Jaskier's start in life was unfortunate, but sadly not unheard of. He was put in a sack, less than an hour old, and chucked in the river. For many in his position that would of been the end of it, but the Yaruga heard his cut off wail and swept him into her loving embrace.

    Less than an hour old and Jaskier had already died and been reborn as the newest child of Mama Yaruga.

    Summary

    “You don’t have to,” Buck says quickly. “You could just leave it. Don’t look.”

    Eddie glances up at him, and they both know without saying it that he isn’t going to let this go.

    There’s no way he can look away now, not after seeing the way Buck reacted.

    “Or maybe just not now,” Buck says softly, stepping closer, his hand settling gently over the screen like he can shield Eddie from what’s on it. “Maybe leave it for now. You’re not… Eddie, you’re not doing well right now. I’ve been so worried about you and this—” his voice catches, “—you… Eddie, please don’t. Just leave it.”

    It stings to hear the worry out loud, even if he knew it was there.

    He wants to do what Buck says, he wants to trust his friend and give him what he’s asking.

    Buck never asks for anything.

    Eddie moves Buck’s hand aside gently, giving it a brief squeeze. “Can’t do that, Buck.”

    Or; After Christopher leaves for El Paso, Buck decides that he and Eddie should trace their family trees to keep Eddie’s mind occupied elsewhere. The results lead Eddie to face a family secret.

    Summary

    It’s on the tip of Buck’s tongue. Eddie can sense it—can practically feel the energy charging between them—and he needs it to stop. Once it’s out there, once they finally get tired of the dance they’ve been doing the day they met, it’s over. If they never say it, things could go back to normal. If they never say it, they’ll still be them.

    Maybe one day, Eddie will be able to bring someone home who he loves less, but can stomach the possibility of losing more.

    Love suffocates Eddie. Slowly, he learns to breathe.

    Summary

    “It’s alright,” Bobby says, another useless lie.

    Eddie’s eyes open, look straight into his, and his next words are remarkably clear. “I love him, Bobby.”

    “No,” he shakes his head, a strange and frantic panic bubbling up inside him. “You can’t tell me this- you can’t tell me this-“ a hundred smiles shift slightly to the left in Bobby’s memory. It’s barely a surprise, really, he picked Eddie out for Buck himself, years and years ago. He thought they’d make a fine pair. “You have to- we’re getting out of here and you’re telling him yourself, you can’t-“
