Summary
It's late when he begins his nightly routine, alone. An uncharacteristic lull in-between correspondences leaves him assuming today's field mission is at fault. Setting out a fresh set of pyjamas on the arm of the sofa, Zayne knows it'll be in her line of sight when she gets home.
It's late when she unlocks the door, consciously making her entrance noisy. By now he'd be in bed with text propped in front of his eyes, words never quite taking hold as worry nibbles at his mind. He'll be able to focus now, she knows, taking the fresh sleepwear with her to the bathroom.

A bedtime routine in which the love is felt rather than spoken. -

Summary
The ominous moon that looms over the N109 Zone may as well have been blue on this night for the rare occurrence taking place in Onychinus' base. Blessedly, the stars had seemingly aligned to allow for an overlap of respite between not only yourself and Sylus - but Luke and Kieran too.
Whilst the joyful evening is a balm upon the soul, it cannot hold the night terrors at bay.
But at least none of you have to suffer alone.

Summary
A collection of tense and soft moments inspired by various instrumental songs. Loose threads connect each chapter, but they can each be read on their own as well.
---
I. Perseverance - contrasting moments of peace and tension, back and forth, until man and demon achieve harmony. Contains scenarios ranging from Lucanis' time spent imprisoned, soft moments in the Lighthouse, and acknowledging The Dreaded Aquarium Wall.
II. Secret Betrayal - a short exploration of the time between Bloodbath and A Murder of Crows.
III. L'oscurità dell'Ignoto - a deadly dance in the opera hall during A Murder of Crows.
IV. Promised Eternity - Rook has injuries that need tending to, Lucanis can't hide from their discerning gaze, and a first kiss becomes a second, a third, and on it goes.
---
Sometimes it felt like to stand before Rook was to lay himself bare at the mercy of a surgeon's scalpel, to be picked apart and trust that knowledge gleaned would be used in kindness. It was a feeling both terrifying and bewitching in equal measure. -
