    Summary

    When one thinks of themself, they often have some idea of who they really are. He can only really see vague concepts and ideas and hate, obviously. He runs on hate. But past that? There's not much more.

    Dabi dreams of Touya. Unfortunately.
    He's normally alone when it happens. Fortunately.
    This time he's not (fortunate, unfortunate, he doesn't really give a fuck anymore)

    Summary

    Marcus holds the goblet up, still stinking with klauthgrass, and ponders them, clutched in the wretched claws of his undead monsters. "Well," he says, and smiles. "If you will not willingly drink it, I have a manner of encouragement."

    And then he raises his dagger, pricks his own wrist until scarlet pools over his pale skin, and lets blood drip into the goblet.

    Before he can help it, Astarion stiffens.

    Astarion has spent two hundred years with truth as a bitter enemy. Fitting, then, that his choice to say it is taken from him.

    Summary

    It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up flat in the dirt, hands tied behind his back, bleeding. His head aches.

    Wyll stands over him, uncharacteristically scared. "Astarion," he says, fast and frantic. "Are you back to yourself?"

    There are two puncture wounds on his neck.

    (It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up. The party says he attacked them. He does not remember this.)

    Summary

    On the morning that he found out he was in love, Kakashi woke up to the sunshine pouring in through his window, ambled into the bathroom, and hacked up a single red chrysanthemum into the sink. He stared at it for a long time. He knew what it meant, obviously. There was only one reason why a man who hadn’t previously eaten a floral arrangement could be spitting out whole flowers.

    After all he's been through, Kakashi certainly isn't going to let a little thing like a chakra disorder kill him. Obviously, he's going to confess his love and get cured. Easy. Now... he just has to figure out who to confess it to.

    In which the ticking clock in question is not actually the clock it seems to be.

    Summary

    “Out.”
    The word forces itself from his mouth, unconscious. He notices his jaw tremble and he locks it shut.
    “Oh, no fucking dice. You look like dogshit."
    “Out, Dabi.”
    Dabi draws closer. His eyes rove over the disaster that is Hawks.
    “Seriously, who the fuck managed to get you like this? I need to shake their hand.”
    Hawks loses time for a moment, there.
    ***
    Hawks is exhausted. Dabi is a prime instigator up until his caretaker instincts seize control. And the rest is history.
