    Summary

    “Do you smoke?“ A rugged, bloodied man pulls a near-empty cigarette pack from his pocket. Gauloises; harsh, but effective. Two lonely white cylinders lie in limbo.

    A chuckle worms its way out of the whimpering stranger. “Yeah.” An opening. An absurd invitation. The man presses a cigarette to his lips and offers its sole companion to the mysterious fellow before him. A thumb flicks a lighter. A stranger leans into a flame.

    Two men from different worlds stand face-to-face, sharing in common only a past stained with the darkest sides of humanity. Yet now, in this moment of feigned innocence and fragile trust, they share a light.

    But a moment is just a moment. What happens next for these two strangely familiar strangers?

    Summary

    I’m up against the wall, two feet from a broken elevator and one foot from a complete stranger, when I realize I’m down to two cigarettes.

    He’s shifting from foot to foot, eyes flitting around nervously. Maybe the guy should loosen his damned fancy tie a bit, let some air in. Maybe that’d do his anxiety some good.

    Still, it’s great to see another human being—one who isn’t actively trying to kill me. I trust this guy as far as I can throw him, don’t get me wrong, but after all the shit I’ve been through today, maybe I shouldn’t measure by my throwing strength.

    But I’m down to two cigarettes, anyhow, and this guy’s got nerves up the wazoo and out the ears.

    Call it an olive branch.

    Summary

    Brought to you by autism and special interest, and ordered into something that might loosely be categorized as 'chronological,' I present to you: Illuflins, but I am incapable of not including more fae lore than what's considered healthy.

    Summary

    “…he, was— he was doing this, he was actually doing this. This was the last point he could turn back from. After this he would have no more control over the situation until he was woken up by something…

    He casts the spell, and the Monkey King is gone.

    Leaving only a perplexed human in his place.”
