Summary
...And he does not know if it was Payakan’s banishment— a part of him, torn away– that tips the scale in his heart or if it was his father's words that broke him but either way he is certain
of his decision to die and sink into it again. To return his borrowed energy.Lo’ak will pull the trigger and shoot himself through the head and by the time the hour has passed, the water lapping at his knees now will have claimed him and he will be free of this.
(Or: Lo'ak doesn't throw away the gun that night, but manages to survive his shot against all odds. Everyone comes to know what he did. How will his parents react to it? How will Lo'ak feel, having failed his attempt? And is there a way to heal after such an occurrence- not just his body, but his mind, soul and relationship with his father?
I have a ton of painful feelings and hurt / comfort planned. I've loved all the fics on this so far... and here it is my way!)

Summary
Lo’ak’s eyes lift. “Promise?”
Jake lifts his pinky. “Pinky promise.”
Lo’ak’s smaller pinky wraps around it, serious as anything.
“See?” Jake says softly. “That’s another thing others can’t do—but we can. And pinky promises never break.”
Lo’ak nods solemnly. “Ever?”
Jake squeezes his finger gently. “Ever.”
. . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
Jake Sully loves his son. He just doesn’t always understand him.
Told primarily through Jake’s POV before, during, and after The Way of Water, this fic explores Lo’ak’s childhood, rebellion, and the cost of silence, carrying its consequences forward into Fire and Ash, where love, guilt, and survival are anything but simple.

Summary
“I didn’t know where else to go.”
Nil has never been quick to anger. But with Aloy unconscious on his chest, and with the mounting realisation that the battle wounds on her body are not from a machine, anger begins to burn at his concern like a flame on cloth, and Nil greets it like an old friend.
When a severely injured Aloy arrives in the desert, Nil’s demons fight to win.
Or, “I didn’t know where else to go” meets “Who did this to you?” and other juicy tropes.

Summary
“What are you thinking about?”
Blinking slowly, he refocused on her face, meeting her curious eyes. They had never stayed together after their bloody reunions, and as such he had never been forced to speak with her at length. Much to his surprise, her question didn’t bother him as much as it usually would; she didn’t strike him to be like normal people who were often uncomfortable with silence. They’d traveled with hardly a word passed between them to this point, so he felt the huntress had earned her question.
“You,” he answered simply. In the dim firelight, he could vaguely make out a change in her complexion, and he tilted his head slightly in interest.

Summary
Aloy contemplated the wholly depressing thought that she’d filled in Sylens’ absence with Nil’s commentary, and somehow managed not to lose her footing and fall to her death in the process.
