    Summary

    “It was you,” he says again. Only this time, he doesn’t phrase it as a question. “You saved me.”

    Flins closes his eyes, leaning into his touch with a sigh, the sound leaving him like the last bit of his resistance.

    “Do you think me a monster?” He asks, bending down a fraction.

    “I think,” Illuga says, coming up on his toes, searching his face as if he could see the beautiful and terrible reality lying beneath. “I didn’t much mind the feeling of dying, if it was in your arms.”

    Summary

    "I am not sick, per se," Flins admits. "It is... an involuntary bodily reaction which comes after being submerged in a body of water for too long without reprieve."

    A pause.

    "There was... also rather a lot of Wild Hunt that needed dealing with, too--"

    "Sir Flins, you just described the process of being sick."

    Summary

    Five times Flins touches Illuga out of curiosity. Five times Illuga feigns ignorance until the truth spills forth.

    Flins removes his glove before he touches Illuga's cheek again, marveling at the feel of the soft tissue under his cold skin. All the while, Illuga’s eyes stare into his own—the colours so bright and enticing. The blue of its outer circles rivals the sky, and the red center reminds him of the blood the young man spills so willingly for his homeland. It taints the lovely feeling Flins holds into darker thoughts, and he lingers—longer than he should—letting his thumb run over the same spot over and over again…

    “Sir Flins?”

    “Yes?”

    “I think that’s enough,” the Young Master states abruptly before turning on his heel, leaving Flins standing where he is, staring at his hand as if he’s never had one to begin with.

    Summary

    His young master laughs, and this time he hears it instead of simply feeling the emotion of it. He sinks further against Illuga with a sigh.

    Emotions shift around him—delight, surprise, a bit of self-consciousness, a tinge of that endearing mischievousness Flins has rarely seen Illuga feed into. His whole spirit eventually soothes, settling on fondness. It’s good to see you, Sir Flins.

    Suddenly, he understands why his kin would go to lengths for intimacy. He would be content to spend his life like this, so long as he can rest his consciousness around Illuga’s.

    Flins' patience runs out. An identity-reveal outtake from Staurolite that can be read on its own.

    Summary

    Dragging your six or seven hundred year old fairy coworker to a medical checkup really ought to blow a lid off that whole ‘pretending to be human’ thing. Luckily, with his unusual upbringing, Illuga wouldn’t know normal if it bit him in the ass.
