    Summary

    Based off this Tumblr text post by s4mm4n:
    God I miss the days when you could show up to a strangers farm and he’d say “Whats your name, boy?” and you’d take off your hat and hold it to your chest to better let him see your face and reply “Why I aint got one sir, on account of my mammy passed on before she could give me one” and he’d tell you he’s real damn sorry to hear that and ask what he can do for you and you’d tell him that you can’t read nor even write neither but you’re mighty good with horses and can mend them fallen fence posts what you saw on your way in and won’t ask for nothing much more than a hot meal and a warm barn to sleep in and he’d keep his wife and daughters inside but send his boy who aint for married even though his mama tells him he needs a woman out with a lantern and some stew at night and the two of you’d get to talking and he’d throw you his flask to take a swig from and watch you drinking from it while he leant against the door frame and when he finally got called back on up to the house again he’d take a sip from it too real slow-like like it weren’t the whiskey what he were tryna savor

    WARNING: Halfway through this story, it becomes about family loss and tuberculosis.

    Summary

    Graves had grown accustomed to the whispers at school, and to the jeers of those who felt more daring. But the lectures of the Ritual have proven far more tiring than any schoolroom drama. For friend and foe alike had all gave her the exact same warning:

    'Don't trust your mentor. She's a Lich. They're using you.'

    Nonsense. All of it. Nothing more than wasteful words that fell on her deaf ears.

    But when the woman about to put a bullet between her eyes gives Graves the same warning once again, her anger finally boils over, as she clashes with the only person who had ever caused her to even slightly waver: Seven. Her lane partner and a psychotic sorcerer.

    ...Gods, the Patron must have it in for her.

    --------------------------------------------

    TLDR: Seven and Graves have a chat during the ritual.

    Summary

    Rocky was frantically rambling. Grace tried to translate the chirps and trills. One sound then cut through his confusion.
    Human.
    Rocky had said Human.

    Or: Simon gets found, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    “Do you always watch me that closely, Eminenza?” he asks, eyes on Aldo. Something in his voice has shifted, too, dropping it into what might almost be a conspiratorial mutter, and Aldo shouldn’t delude himself into thinking he can read anything into it. It’s been too long.

    Some doors should stay closed, especially after they’ve been slammed shut.


    After the conclave, over the course of seven days and seven conversations, Aldo Bellini is forced to retrace the steps of a past he's spent thirty years trying to forget and slowly comes to the realisation that old, buried feelings might not have been buried that deeply after all.
