Summary
“Help me take down the Sphere.”
Zanka’s breath catches, he stutters in his steps towards the man. Taking down the Sphere sounds like a lot of work. A feral sort of grin creeps against his cheeks...
Zanka has always enjoyed working hard. It’s the only way someone like him can get stronger, after all.

“Nice to meet you Jabber,” Enjin says, soft and calm, “I wish it could have been under better circumstances.”
Enjin is strong. He’ll be difficult to fight off. But Jabber is strong now, too. He smiles to himself.
Yeah, eventually. Jabber will have to fight this guy.

Summary
Jabber needs a respectable boyfriend so Cthoni will get off his back about going out all the time and coming home beat up. But he won't spend his time with anyone boring, he'd rather stab himself in the ear... again.
Hey, maybe the guy in the piercing shop will do.
Zanka needs someone to bring to his family dinner that will really piss off the Nijikus after they basically ruined his life. But it can't be someone he knows too well, since he doesn't want to be caught in a lie.
Hey, maybe the insane guy who keeps coming in to the piercing studio will do.
OR: A fake dating AU with a piercing play twist!

Summary
“It ain’t cheatin’, ‘cause thats an insane thing to think.” Zanka mutters to himself in the empty room.
Well, empty save for Lovely Assistaff.
She can’t talk, of course, since she’s not a person. And that’s exactly what Zanka is concerned with. She isn’t a person. Lovely Assistaff is an object, and his Vital Instrument, and he loves her very dearly. But she isn’t a person and she isn’t his girlfriend...
So why does he feel like he’s cheated on her?
aka:
Zanka and Lovely have some beautiful make-up sex after their encounter with Mankira earlier in the day. (Reading the previous fic in the series isn't required but might enrich your enjoyment of this fic)

Summary
“Goka!” Zanka hisses, eyes wide as he tugs on his brother’s sleeve and subtly points at the group, “Goka, who are those people?” The awe in his voice is clear.
They pass each other, Zanka leaning his head behind Goka to continue staring.Quickly, Goka grabs Zanka’s arm that holds his sleeve and pulls him forward.
“Ouch!” He cries. The sudden movement had hurt his shoulder. “Goka-”
“Those people,” Goka interrupts, voice suddenly clipped, “are Cleaners. The Hell Guard works with them sometimes. But you should avoid ‘em as much as possible.”
“Okay.” Zanka accepts easily. If Goka says someone is no good, he’s usually right.
“They’re sick in the head.” Goka grits out.
Or, Zanka grows up wondering.
Or, or, my completely self indugent fic where I make Zanka into a trans girl because I think she has something going on. Something something, repression, something something, Givers as a metaphor for queer awakening.
