Summary
“Back then,” Yuuri asks. “Did you love me?”
The cigarette hangs low, tucked between Victor’s lips. The end glows steadily orange, devil eyes on a coal-black night.
(Some ghosts of your past you leave well alone.)(Or: the powered assassins AU in which betrayal comes first, forgiveness second, and love was always somewhere in the equation.)

Summary
Otabek looks at him like his eyes don’t matter, raises a single fucking eyebrow like he’s saying -
Yeah, I’ve got monsters too, let’s pull them out and play -
Like Yuri’s the one with the problem here, two sizes too small for the trappings of his skin.
Yuri smokes too much, drinks hard from bottles in colours he can’t keep track of, rides every edge he can find because it’s easier to chase a high than to stop and think, for one second, that if the eyes are the window to the soul, then what is it in him that died and is rotting?
(Or: the powered assassins AU in which Yuri has emotional attachment Issues™, Otabek is long-suffering, and they skirt around a four-letter word that begins with L.)
Set in the same 'verse as our doubts are traitors, but functions well as a standalone.
