    Summary

    The thing is, she remembers him.

    This hulking shadow in the frame of the doorway. A big, dusty duffle bag next to big, dusty, heavy boots.

    A thick, silver ring, clinking against the neck of a beer bottle.

    That’s all she can think about when they say his name the first time in the warm office of the group home. Just that clink of his ring against a brown bottle in the hazy blue glow of the TV. A droning laugh-track and her parents' laughter mixing in. His eyes sometimes, sliding to her, sitting in the hallway and peeking in.

    She can’t remember him ever laughing.

    Your father’s brother, Miss Andrea said. Logan.

    Did you know about him?

     

    Clink clink.

    Summary

    Metamorphose: to change, to be transformed

    Denali left Valenwood years ago to travel Tamriel and learn its geology, and her next stop is Solstheim, a dreadful mass of land that she hopes to delve into. But the island is violent and dangerous, and she's not a skilled adventurer. Enter Teldryn Sero, who will do basically anything for money, including escorting a stubborn Bosmer across the island so she can look at rocks.

    As they grow closer and travel further to Skyrim, each of the two must face their destinies, past and present, so that they might eventually find peace. They must learn and adapt, grow and trust, and hope above all else that the other will not fail. Destiny really is a bitch.

    Summary

    You’re new. Untrained. An easy target in a game that rewards paranoia and cruelty. Trapped in an endless loop of rounds you don’t understand yet—five players, shifting maps, and one rule that never changes: one person is lying.

    A veteran takes notice of you early on. Too early. He teaches you the maps, the weapons, the tells—guiding you with murmured instructions and a protective hand at your back, his Russian accent close enough to feel. Amused by how easily you fluster, how often you end up colliding with him round after round.

    You tell yourself it’s just survival. Just strategy. But it gets harder to ignore the way he watches you, the way he steps in front of bullets meant for you—and the way you keep running straight into his arms, whether you mean to or not. And he seems far too happy about it.
