    Summary

    “What’s this for?” Artemy leans back in his chair, crossing his arms. 

    Daniil shrugs haphazardly, opening the bottle with a subtle pop. He takes a swig before speaking in a frustrated tone.

    “Celebration? Recompense? Hell if I know. I just know I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I tried, so let's drink.” He sets the bottle on the table closer to Artemy. 

    “Why not?”

    A measured exhale, “The Stillwater makes me feel like I’m losing my mind. I can only sleep with a nightcap more often than not.”

    OR:

    Daniil and Artemy work late and decide to end the night with a drink. Things take an unexpected turn for both of them.

    Summary

    Three years ago, Daniil's body began changing against his will, shedding skin for scales. He's been able to hide this metamorphosis from the world so far, but a town wracked with plague and suspicion is about to force his secret into the open. When its people turn against him and that serpentine transformation spreads at last beyond anything he can conceal or cope with alone, only Artemy, who knows what it's like to be a man different from most, might be able to help reconcile Daniil with the town and his new self.

    Summary

    “… I’d say good morning,” Dankovsky said at length, a little hoarsely, “but I’m afraid I’ve lost track of the time. Good … something, Haruspex.”

    “Afternoon. You look—” Artemy began, and broke off.

    “Yes? What ghoulish thing do I resemble today?” Daniil blew out some smoke, staring pensively ahead. “A striga, perhaps.”

    “—better,” Artemy finished. “Less like you’d gone already, and are only haunting me.”

    That shut Daniil’s mouth.

    Summary

    For as long as he was able, Daniil Dankovsky has kept his past—and his body—to himself. Even as he studied up on the latest advancements in surgery and the potential they might hold to bring his body and mind into closer alignment, he never pursued them for himself. Instead, he binds his chest and hides beneath layers of clothing for fear that any exposure of his secret might have dire consequences for his life and his future.

    But on the other side of insurmountable loss, there is Artemy Burakh—the first surgeon he might dare to trust with the truth of himself.

    Summary

    “I wanted to see how you’re doing. I know this—being here wasn’t your first choice.”

    “No,” says Daniil. It’s hardly an admission. “But few of us have had our first choice these days, have we? In adversis, necesse est accommodare.” Never mind that he’s not adapting especially well at all, that Artemy has seen the proof for himself. “If you’re feeling responsible for me, I’d rather you save it for someone better suited for your protection.”

    At that, Artemy looks up, and straight into Daniil’s eyes.

    This close, in the light of the gas lamps, they are an unfathomable color and depth: light and simultaneously shadowed, somewhere between blue and green and gray, like staring into a clear lake that stretches deeper than the eye can make out. Daniil stares into those depths and finds himself straining forward, leaning, as if he could tip into that body of water and lose himself beneath the surface.

    “No,” Artemy says at last, his voice low enough to stoke that heat in Daniil’s gut again. “I invited you here because I think you’re the only person in town I’m not responsible for."

    Summary

    “What about your dad?” Biggs asks, and he’s still doing that thing he does sometimes where he’s looking all calm and serious and concerned at Luke, like Luke’s some damsel he can sweet-talk into his bed or round the back of the cantina or something.

    “Just wanted to know more about him is all,” Luke lies with a shrug, taking another gulp of his drink. “Cause it’s my birthday.”

    “Do you mean Ben hasn’t told you about your dad before?” Camie asks, sounding kind. “Like, ever?”

    “I mean, I know some things,” Luke says, sitting up straight and defensive with a glare at his friend. "He talked about him sometimes, you know."

    or, after Mustafar, Obi-Wan finds himself singed and shattered and once more on Tatooine. When it's time to give the babe up to his aunt and uncle, he also finds that he cannot. Not Anakin's son. Not another Skywalker. The only thing left to do is raise him as his own.

    Summary

    There is a heavy silence that hangs between the two. Both parties have better things to do than engage further in this strange scene, yet both are also too stubborn to be the one to pull away. To break the intensity, to try and salvage what is usually a decently amicable professional relationship. So they hang in suspension, and time ticks on as it always does. Inching closer and closer.

    For a moment, when he sees movement and feels warmth against him, he assumes Burakh has merely brushed past him at a brisk pace. Perhaps trying to jostle him on purpose as he storms off to his other duties for the day.

    That theory dissipates into dust when Burakh is caressing him, and soft full lips are flush against his.

    "'Tis very true; my grief lies all within;
    And these external manners of laments
    Are merely shadows to the unseen grief
    That swells with silence in the tortur'd soul."

    Summary

    “So,” the Bachelor says to him. “This is goodbye, I believe.” And then; “until next time.”

    Behind his voice, Artemy can hear the chatter of a newly healthy, newly cured town. Dankovsky lowers himself from where he’s standing on the edge of the train. One of his legs brushes Artemy’s side as he sits back, and then — pulls away.

    “You must be relieved,” Artemy says. “Finally going back to your Capital.”

    Dankovsky scoffs. “I suppose so. Are you?”

    “That’s a stupid question,” Artemy says.

    Summary

    “Is this a rescue, dear Artemy?”
    “Of course, you didn’t think I’d forget to repay you for the Plants, did you?”
    “Oh, but you did repay me for that. With a human heart, if I’m recalling the situation correctly.”

    Or: Daniil gets arrested by some Capital goons and Artemy has to fix it.

    Summary

    The Polyhedron falls. So does Daniil Dankovsky.

     

    The Polyhedron had fallen, dashed to pieces upon the unforgiving steppe, along with his hopes and dreams of a utopia. Without Thanatic or the Polyhedron there would not be one now, at least not within his lifetime. So he fell too, into the Stamatin’s twyrine and the comforting numbness it brings.

    But then Burakh had asked him to stay, for some reason. And for some other, he actually agreed. There’s nothing left for him in the Capital anyways, besides disgrace and a disappointed father. And perhaps a noose from the Powers-That-Be.

    The re-lived day is one of the strangest mysteries of the Jedi: a passage in a Jedi's life when the Force knots Time itself around their individual consciousness, allowing them to revise and repeat their actions until harmony with the Force is achieved.

    Won’t somebody help me chase the shadows away…

    As much as Artemy wants to spend the night with his colleague, after the man makes an offer that they might take pleasure from each other if they're so inclined, when a butcher lays at last with his lover what will he see? A body to be caressed, or harvested? Haunted by visions of his place being to cut along the Lines, haunted by guilt over past choices, the Haruspex fears he won't be much of a close, intimate friend to Daniil Dankovsky after all...
