    Summary

    You've just moved to a new town and, wouldn't you know it, your car is starting to act up. Against your better judgement, you roll up to the shady looking local auto body shop and discover that unfortunately the mechanic is a weird old man that you find upsettingly attractive.

    Summary

    Realistic slow burn, with earned intimacy:

    Beginning four months after the events of the game (after a near-Perfect Ending), Laura, acquitted with the others of the Hackett Quarry carnage, is struggling with the psychological and emotional fallout of everything she went through last summer while the others are starting to move on. There's only one other person in the world who understands what she went through, because he put her through most of it. Would seeing him again do more harm than good?

    Summary

    “Stop it.” Jean says that, once he feels the tickle of Harry’s beard at the base of his neck. He doesn’t open his eyes.

    “What am I doing?” Harry asks, maybe because he isn’t quite sure himself. Chasing some impulse, most likely. These days he’s so quick to indulge himself that sometimes he takes things he isn’t sure he even wants, just in case it scratches an itch.

    Summary

    Phyre never expected for a younger Malkavian to sew the threads of her tattered humanity back together. A voice that felt like the distant memory of the sun and the taste of warm honey in her head. A mere lighthouse keeper in the middle of a dark raging sea, with only a mere light to guide them to shore. He was the keeper who guided her, who shaped her to no longer be the monster of the night.

    But now he's gone. His sacrifice allowed her to live, his soul becoming flecks of dust in the golden sun. The Final Death. Nothing was coming back from that. The price they had paid for salvation. There was nothing left for her in Seattle now. The Lighthouse was extinguished, leaving her stranded in the dark raging sea. She was nothing more than a tapestry unraveling at the seams.
    -----

    Fabien was told that he was like a cat with nine lives. He always seemed to come back, no matter what came of him. Now he was going to cash in his third life. Third time is the charm, right?
