    Summary

    It was strange, how far away and blunted all sensations were to her. Most days, Gideon felt exactly like the thing she was: a ghost piloting an expired meat suit. But when Harrow slowly, cautiously bridged the space between them and her hand found Gideon's in the sheets, Gideon could have sworn that she registered the heat of her skin.

    [Harrow rescues a Tower Prince and they fight their way out of the castle while arguing the entire time.]

    Summary

    Vash the Stampede is indestructible until he isn't.

    Wolfwood picks up the pieces.

    (Wolfwood gathers every single broken fragment he can find, painstakingly glues them back together, and wills them—Vash—to just stay put for once, dammit.)

    Summary

    Morrible unfurls Glinda’s mind like a scroll, examining the contents of her memory the way she examined the displayed organs of the first fetal pig she ever dissected. It’s less cohesive than the innards of a pig. That’s the problem with memory bound by emotion. Love is diffuse. It so easily becomes entangled in every aspect of the human experience, regardless of whether the target was physically present or not. Extracting it with any amount of elegance can get…dicey.

    Summary

    “Zagreus,” Thanatos sighed, a low and lonesome sound. “What is it that you need from me?”

    “Sleep,” came the choked reply. “Please. Whatever you must do. Anything to get me to sleep.”

    Or: Zagreus traverses the Underworld in endless cycles, unable to find any rest; though he grows stronger each time that he perishes, his body refuses to let him sleep. For this, he seeks a begrudging Thanatos, who becomes his only respite.

    | Inspired by the response given when interacting with Zagreus' bed in his chambers - "can't sleep". A slow-burn, Thanatos-centric character exploration/ZagThan coming-together story. |

    Summary

    Thanatos is fine.

    Just fine, he most certainly doesn't need a rebellious prince in his life at all. Definitely not.

    But yet Thanatos just can't seem to keep himself away from Zagreus, his body fighting against his own logic, when he gets too close he brings death, and that's all he's good for right?

    Zagreus doesn't think so.

    AKA: A slowburnish fluff-focus fic about their dynamic as a pair and how they interact with their friends, their families and other members of the house! Along with lots of drama, dramatics and mild violence, a lot of this fic follows the canon game story, with some deviation at points.
