Summary
She hates them, hates them so much it makes her sick– that's what she tells herself as she paints their walls and sweeps their floors. She can't stand them. She's only doing this because she's out of options.
That's what she tells herself. She's telling herself lots of things these days.
In reality, her resolve is starting to crumble beneath them, and that makes her miserable.
If they wanna be so– nice, so accepting, they want something in return. That's how the world works. Ebb and flow, push and pull, give and take– she's known nothing but the law of equivalent exchange, and at the very least, Casey Jones is always good on her word.
Or: Casey's a Hamato now. Despite that, she has trouble believing she's worth a damn.

Summary
One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.
“What are you fucking giggling about?”
The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.
“It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.
“Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.
“I know because I was in one, asshole.”
------
During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.
Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.
Flambae does not.

Summary
“Fantastic. And why are you here? You’re free. I don’t want to see your face. Get the hell out and leave me be.” So I can lick my wounds in private.
“Oh, you know,” Alastor sing-songs. He pulls up a chair next to the sick bed, hops down on it, and primly crosses his legs. “After spending so much time here over the last week, I think I’ve gotten used to your hospitality. Maybe I miss being around you already!”
Vox knows Alastor is being sarcastic. He knows. And usually, he’d be able to shrug it off.
But he’s so damn beaten down already, the words are like a knife to the heart, making him bleed.
“I don’t want your fucking gloating,” he snarls. “You won. Is that what you wanted to hear? You were right about me, and I’ve failed, again, like you told me I would. Big fucking hurray to you. Go celebrate your victory with Princess Friendship.”
In the aftermath of Vox’s
mass-murder-suicide attemptfailed uprising, Alastor gives him a visit. It changes nothing, but it helps.Series

Summary
“Marriage,” Astarion repeats acridly, sharp crimson eyes cutting to Wyll across the mahogany after he slams his hands on the tabletop. “I’ve doffed one hellish prison, and they want to confine me to another.”
“Astarion,” Wyll chides gently. “You’re one of the city's heroes, you’ve come into a large fortune, own property, and your charm is considerable.” Astarion’s glare is withering, not the least bit mollified. “When you want it to be,” Wyll adds on, knowing that he’s poking the spawn.
“Why aren’t they hounding and tormenting you, then?” Astarion retorts, crossing his arms with a huff.
(The one where Astarion and Wyll pretend to date to get high society off their backs, OR five times Astarion asks to drink Wyll's blood and the one time he doesn't have to.)
