Summary
"There were curious hands grasping at their spine, exploring the misshapen vertebrae and the strained discs in between.
There was cold hard stone beneath them, wet with blood and sweat.
And there was pain. Their entire body was in pain. Everything hurt."

Summary
"Had the two of them only ever schemed together at the desks in the centre of this room, or would they have sat in the alcove behind the now ruined silk draperies, beneath those ostentatious glass windows? Would they have looked down upon the bustling city and the wide open sea and talked about other, more menial things?
There was an itch in their throat - and a heaviness in their chest - that Hush knew they should not be feeling. This man was their enemy, the Chosen of Bane who had abducted and contaminated Wyll’s father and doomed Karlach to an unfair, untimely death. They should be glad the pest was finally dead."
----
The conflicting emotions warring inside Hush in the aftermath of the Gortash fight, feat. Speak with Dead, identity issues, and utter intra-party chaos!

Summary
"What if said three words, everyone's favourite?", Astarion asked quietly, his cold breath ghosted over their face, caressed their closed eyelids, stirred their lashes, as he leaned in ever so close until he touched their forehead with his. Hush could smell the expensive perfumes and oils on his skin, as well as a faint smell beneath the initial cloud of flowers and mild spices; something stale and sharp hiding just below the pleasant surface.
He lifted a second ice cold, perfectly manicured hand up to their other ashen cheek, now fully cupping their face.
"I love you"
Hush stopped breathing.
