    ugh this is so good. i can always count on murderlight fics to have a grasp on grimmjow's character that genuinely surpasses the source material. i LOVE how he's slowly coming around to apacci and everyone else and becoming more himself through developing his platonic relationships with others. also the humor, as always, is perfectly woven into the story in spots that are so natural and are so funny while not taking away from the more introspective parts of the fic. fantastic fic i could yap about it for ages.

    Summary

    “Change is hard,” Cere dares to continue. “With everything you’ve endured, it’s normal to feel upset. No one could ever hold it against you. But you still have us, Cal. You have us.”

    Cal lowers the towel, eyes on it as he asks monotonously, “for how long?”

    or,

    the crew of the Stinger Mantis over the years.

    Summary

    Thimble flies up and stands on Occtis’s nose, resting her tiny forehead right between his eyebrows. “You’re my best friend,” she says softly

    “I thought that was Thjazi.”

    “You can have more than one.”

    Occtis smiles even though he feels like he’s about to cry again. “I only have one.”

    That moment, right before Thimble breaks the silence, will later become a beautiful, crystalline memory, one Occtis will return to in those times when he’s struggling to hold on to his values, to his very sense of self. The first time he had ever felt accepted for all of who he was.

    ---

    A friendship that started when Occtis was nine years old and a pixie flew into his room, and how it endures through death and back again.

    Summary

    The idea of a place that makes everyone magically have sex was funny enough as a teenager, but as an adult with taxes to pay and apprentices to shoo out of his room, Olruggio is decidedly less than enthused when he hears a landslide opened up a magical cave that apparently just does that.

    But that doesn’t mean he’s going to let Qifrey investigate it by himself, or, even worse, with someone else.

    Summary

    When they’d first met, just after Ryusui had been revived, Ryusui had made his move. He wasn’t one to wait. He’d found Ukyo finishing up making a new batch of arrows, had snapped his fingers in front of his face, and leaned in, flashing a grin and said, plainly, “I desire you.”

    It usually worked. Or if not worked, at least provoked a reaction. A blush, a laugh, annoyance - something. Ryusui was a lot, and he knew it. But he was also handsome, clever, and confident enough to get away with being a lot. People reacted.

    Instead, Ukyo had raised a single eyebrow and said, “I’m a wait-for-the-third-date kind of guy,” in the same tone he might use to comment on the weather. Then he’d turned and walked off to go spar with Kohaku, leaving Ryusui standing there like a fish gasping on the beach.

    --

    Ukyo's pretty clearly not impressed with Ryusui. And that would be fine, except Ryusui has started to cough up flowers, and Ruri's telling him it's because he's in love with someone who doesn't love him back.
