    Summary

    Arthur kept a small bottle of whiskey in his closet, he knows he shouldn't have, trying to go sober and all. But he told himself it was for emergencies.

    And today is a reasonable day to have a few drinks, just to get the sinking feeling out of his chest. To not feel like he's drowning in guilt and grief.

    December 7th. The day faroe died.

    Summary

    In the perpetual, seething hostility of the Prison Pits, one small moment of care pushes arguments aside and thaws the ice just enough for some softer emotions to seep through.

    Summary

    Home feels temporary, a sandcastle seconds from washing away in the rising tide. Home is a fairy tale he used to tell Faroe, a lie he told himself, his own carrot, as false and hollow as Kayne’s. Maybe Arthur is a shark, unable to stop, leaving a trail of blood wherever he goes.

    A character exploration of Arthur's relationship to the concept of home, spanning from childhood to post-canon.

    Summary

    "I got somethin' for you."

    Charlie raises a brow curiously, sitting up on his elbows to peer at where Noel had his hand cupped around something. "If it's another spider I'm going to make sure it ends up on your pillow tonight."

    "That was one time," Noel rolls his eyes, "It's not a spider, promise." He holds his hand out more insistently, tapping it on top of Charlie's knuckles.

    Despite his reservations, Charlie opens his palm flat, expecting something unpleasant and instead feeling a metal weight hitting his palm.

    "Why are you giving me this?" He asks curiously, seeing that now curled in his palm was Noel's dog tags. Their shape was familiar as his own, it feels like just yesterday they'd received them.

    "I want you to have them," Noel says seriously, and Charlie looks at him with surprise.

    Summary

    "Won't you look at me?"

    Arthur could almost laugh. He knows what he'll see if he turns his head. The King would show him Parker as he'd known him, or even worse Parker after he died. He still didn't remember his death, a cruelty unimaginable. If his body had been the one to kill his best friend, he deserves to know how it happened.

    "Arthur."

    Ignoring the visions doesn't always work, but Arthur fears if he answers it might actually break him. He knows how the rest of the memory goes.

    Summary

    According to Arthur's mind, sex is as much of a need as food and water. In the Prison Pits, they've had little of the second and third, and none of the first. At a particularly low point, John decides to change that.

    I caught up to Episode 50, went to browse some fanfic, didn't see something I kind of expected, and I had enough surplus creative juice to get this done in a few hours. Been a while since I've done proper smut. Enjoy~

    Summary

    The King has found a new angle, a fresh wound to prod, another dark corner of Arthur’s mind to haunt.

    Night after night, he slithers into Arthur’s dreams. Night after night, John is helpless to do anything but watch, but listen, as Arthur writhes and moans, sleeping mind poisoned with foreign desire.

    It’s not real. John knows it’s not real.

    No matter how much he wishes otherwise.

    Summary

    "'There's- there's a napkin on the table. Royal blue, folded so carefully as to be a piece of art.' John reaches out blindly, softly feeling through the darkness of cursed sight.

    His fingers snag on a cloth.

    Not royal blue, not folded to perfection.

    Faust's pant leg, torn off once his limb had been removed at the joint.

    Grasping it like a lifeline, John lifts it to Arthur's mouth."

     

    Or, John distracts Arthur (and himself) by describing Faust as a meal. Arthur pays him back with a song.
