Summary
“What’s his name?” Yuna asks.
“Ilya,” he says. A second later, as if they might be confused, he stumbles out, “The, um-” He barely stops himself from saying, ‘the one from hockey?’ like a buffoon. “Rozanov.”
(or: david sees shane with a man at the cottage, but doesn't quite see who. shane tries coming out on his own.)

Summary
“Admitting doubts in the mission to crew is not conducive to good leadership. You all need me to be the rock.”
“Oh, come on. You don’t really consider me on the same level as the crewmen, do you? Save the brave face for them.” Garrus hooks one ankle over the other and cocks his head. “We’re friends, Shep.”
She can’t resist flirting with him, not when he sets her up so beautifully. “Is that what we are?”
His neck flushes. “As a baseline.”
(or: shepard can't sleep. garrus won't even try. they meet each other where they're at.)

Summary
“Ignore the wizard. He was speaking in hypotheticals. What does he know about performing? It’s…”
Av’ril tilts her head. “It’s what?”
“It’s survival, what you did. What you do. Your instinct to… charm your problems away. There was no ‘good’ answer. So - quit loathing yourself for not finding it.” Astarion’s throat is tight. Luckily, he doesn’t need to breathe, so he simply doesn’t until he sucks in enough air to add, “Start loathing Gale instead.”
(or: astarion learns he has more in common with av'ril than he'd hoped)

The Case of the Man Who Two-Thirds Wasn't There by glisteningceruleaneyes
Fandoms: Disco Elysium (Video Game)

Summary
Three-and-one-third bodies have been found in an abandoned vehicle on the riverbank.
It would be a challenging case even without the bad weather, weapons smuggling, white nationalists, industrial accidents, and the concept of pedigree dog breeds—but over it all hangs one troubling question: What is it that fascinates you about Kim Kitsuragi? Is it working class camaraderie? A sinister hex of mysterious origin? Did you imprint on him in Martinaise, like an amnesiac duckling? If you don’t figure out what’s going on soon, people are going to start to notice. Especially him.
And sooner or later? Everything is related to the case.
