    Summary

    “Ah. Am I making a house call?”
    Owen nods.
    “Could you describe the patient’s condition? I need to know what to bring with me.”
    “Our wolf has fallen ill.”
    The doctor frowns. “I’m not a veterinarian."
    “He isn’t always a wolf.”

    Summary

    Vi was the first person to see Jinx clearly. She saw her for what she was—something else hiding inside of a child’s skin. Not like a snake, shedding its skin, which implies thought, progression, but something formless, changing without growing, a fluid filling whatever space it can find. A tool—not multipurpose like a Swiss army knife, but multipurpose like a hammer. To a hammer, everything looks like—well.

    Or: Post season-1, Jinx and Sevika talk.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of Oakhurst, Abolish returns to work, but finds himself joined by two very familiar faces. "Done with those lunatics," he definitely was not. Still, he's got a job to do, and he's going to stick at it, even with two divorced-situationship/whatever-the-hell vampires flanking him. Abolish can be professional about the whole thing. His two new coworkers, however...

    AU in which Owen and Legs both survive VSMP and join Abolish in the shadow organisation. Neither are coping with working with the other in a remotely normal fashion.

    Summary

    Owen has made a lot of decisions in his 200 and so years of existence. There's one he considers his most clearly damning.

    Legundo has made his own decisions in a much shorter period. He's not sure it's that simple.

    Summary

    A part of me does want to kill it. This is the part of me that recognizes it as the threat it poses, the part of me that does not trust it. I can never truly trust it. But not now, not here. Because another, sub-rational part of myself categorizes Combat as something to be protected. Something of value. A unique resource. As a rational being my capacity for rationalization is unmatched.

    There is in fact a part of me, however small, that does trust it.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry, did you say eleven years old?” Ratthi asked, because humans can’t play back bits of conversations that they didn’t hear and are always asking each other to repeat things, much to the annoyance of any contracted SecUnits being forced to listen in and record everything they say to be sold for advertising data.
    “Yes,” Gurathin confirmed, and then everyone was staring at me and looking all shocked and sad and whatever.
    “Constructs don’t age the same way humans do,” I reminded them, before anyone could start thinking anything stupid like oh no, Murderbot is just a little kid and little kids shouldn’t be doing security and eleven year olds shouldn’t have guns in their arms. "Eleven is old for a SecUnit. Most of my inorganics are already past warranty.”
    Except, because I’m an idiot, that didn’t make it better. It actually made it worse, because now even Dr. Mensah was making a concerned face at me.

    Summary

    The thing that wears the doctor's face is a monster of Owen's own making.

    It had been fun, funny, at first; a fitting punishment: to take the shell that was once Legs, hollowed out by vampirism, and forge him into the very thing he feared. Satisfying, to see the moment he realised he could not escape what he was about to become.

    AU where vampirism wipes all human memories, and Owen gets more than he bargains for in turning Legundo. As the days roll on and the fledging's (soldier, weapon, once-doctor) ledger runs red under his watch and still Legs doesn't remember, Owen starts to question exactly what he wants.

    “I’m sorry, I’m really trying.”

    “To hold yourself back?” Pearl said. “For me?”

    “It’s so strong,” Pyro said, his voice quivering on the words. “The smell of blood, I mean. I followed it here and now I’m up close and it’s just…”

    Yeah, Pearl really should have known better. She was a walking vampire magnet. She was lucky it had taken this long for someone to find her. “I’m not hurt,” she told him. “Look, would it make you feel better if I let you have some?”

    Pearl's on her period, and there are vampires in the woods. She may as well make the most of it.

    Summary

    There was a tale Legundo had read once, of a woman whose lover was taken away by dark fey creatures, to a palace under a hill. To get him back from the evil Queen of Air and Darkness, she had to hold him tight and not let him go, although he turned into all manner of things;

    A snake, sharp fanged and venomous. A bear, so large she could barely keep her slim arms around him. A bird whose wings she had to crush in her hands. A snowflake, a breeze, a memory— until finally he became a flame that burned her so horribly that her tears eventually put the flames out, and her lover was there again, naked and trembling and weeping himself.

    "Well Doctor, what's it going to be?" Scott asked, his face near healed now, his right eye visible beneath the fracture of his brow. The white was bruised with burst blood vessels, giving Scott a dangerous, uneven look as he stared at Legundo, legs crossed neatly, blood mopped away.

     

    "… I'll try," Legundo nodded slowly, heart pounding. "I'll try to help Owen."

    Summary

    How they hated one another up there where the sun shone! How much more they hate one another now that they are forever conjoined but not reconciled. - Screwtape Proposes a Toast, C.S. Lewis

     

    Once, Owen had locked him in the crypt beneath the church and let him starve to death; despite the poetic justice of that one, it had been excruciatingly boring for Owen and was unlikely ever to be repeated. There was a river running a few minutes’ walk from the church, and he had dragged Legundo there a few times to drown him in the shallows. Legundo felt he could better empathize with Pyro now, but it was too far into the dark for them to make the venture particularly often.
    But with a lumberjack in a leafless winter forest, there was never a shortage of firewood, and the ritual of building the pyre gave Owen something to do. The burnings seemed almost a compulsion for Owen, a wretched perpetual striving for some kind of closure that he was never going to get.
    Legundo tried not to think about it too much.

    Summary

    Only after their death had happened and vanished from their mind did Pyro realize just how much they craved it.

    It wasn’t that they were suicidal—far from it. More than anything, Pyro wanted to survive. But some part of them refused to leave this fascination behind, always circling back to the missing moment of their death, the hideous crater left by its absence. It crept into their waking thoughts, a background hum that followed him everywhere he went. He began to ruminate, to speculate, to press both Owen and Scott for details. Neither cared. For them, it had just been another meal, another night.

    An exploration of Pyro's fascination with death, from beginning to end.
