    Summary

    Leon once believed there was nothing Claire couldn’t handle, but he’d come to understand the truth in time. 

    There was nothing she wouldn’t handle. Not if someone needed her to. 

    But all that weight still built up on her shoulders, and even she wasn’t made of steel.

    Or, Claire finally meets her limit. Leon catches where she falls.

    Summary

    “I don’t know why I can’t stop… catastrophizing. I’m thinking about getting old. and I don’t know a lot about you still.. or-or us. or anything.” Claire’s voice was hardly above a whisper, like the words were painful to voice. “I-I don’t doubt you. I don’t doubt your love or your honesty to me, it’s just… nothing good ever happens to people like us.”

    “‘people like us’?” Leon echoed. “you’re saying that as of we’re bad people, Claire.”

    “no, that’s not— you know what I mean. I know you do.”

    Leon did know, he just didn’t like to think about it.

    Summary

    His touch slips down her neck, her collarbone, to that darkening mark on her breast, textured by disease, as if her skin is necrotizing. Sherry’s pretty sure it isn’t, the cells aren’t dead, just…infected. The look of it is horrific, though. He’s tried to scrub it off, to pick at it, pull the skin away like it’s just a covering, a bandage, a layer that’s marring the skin. It bleeds but it never heals.

    Sherry told him to stop doing it, that it could possibly make it worse, make the infection spread faster. She isn’t sure, but there’s the possibility. So he’s tried to stop picking at it. Tried to stop wanting to scrape steel wool over his neck. He’s trying, he’s trying.

    ----------

    Leon has been through so much in his life, but there's something about this virus slowly killing him and people he loves that terrorizes his thoughts, to the point that he doesn't know how to focus on the present instead of a potential impending death. Claire is there for him, but even she's more scared than she lets on.

    Takes place before Requiem but after signs of the infection have started showing up.

    The title is from the song Scars by Boy Epic.
