    Summary

    Drifter held out his hand to shake like an equal. “Truth be told, if any of us convinces Loid to tell the family the truth, it’ll be the kid.”

    Roathe said, “What? Even it can see my wisdom?”

    Drifter took his hand back, folded his arms, and raised an eyebrow. “Another term of your good behavior is that if you keep being an asshole, I don't have to come smell the stench.”

    Roathe contemplated throwing the grimoire at him. Unfortunately, the value of victory through submission still held true until such time as he remembered everything Albrecht took from him. So he uttered a tired sigh. “I see how it is. I play nice and in return, you delve into the depths of my haunted mind along with me, the better to defeat my inner demons and return my memories.”

    ...
    Or: “The enemy is but a mountain. With each fall you test its surface, learning the footholds needed to reach the summit. For true balance can only be found in the face of the ultimate enemy. Yourself.” – Teshin Dax

    Summary

    After facing centuries of death, over and over and over, the drifter has become a little numb to it. Or, that's what he'd tell himself anyway. Regardless, there's a story to maintain, people to save, and trust to build.

    This is just a little tale of a drifter who might need all the time he's got to become what the Hex needs.

     

    (Progress note - Author needs to DE to stop reading their mind and doing their plans cooler, Sol Damnit. Anyway, RT has been introed, onward to something anomalous...)

    Summary

    Blade finally gets enough control over himself to bite clean through the tip of his own tongue. The real rush of blood clears the illusory taste of mara in his throat. He needs to get a grip. It’s hard when he’s just clawing himself from yet another death at Dan Heng’s hands. In the past, Dan Heng had fled from their fights the moment any opportunity presented itself.

    This time, he’s kneeling beside Blade with a grim look on his face. “I intend to prevent the calamity unfolding here. Blade... Can I count on you to help?”

    ---

    Blade and Dan Heng have a slightly longer conversation before heading to the TV station.

    Summary

    Blade breathed in and then out, slightly ragged. His grip tightened… then loosened, to something desperate instead of violent, and Dan Heng could feel the way the other man trembled, ever so slightly. Or maybe it was the both of them, for different reasons.

    Neither Blade nor Dan Heng could have ever expected to be in each other’s company as Fulwish’s plot rages on in the background, and certainly neither expected that company to be helpful. An inexplicable and unknown change turned the once-volatile combination into something capable of quieting the mara. In the process of deciphering this change, more discoveries are made along the way. The past cannot be removed or forgotten, but it can be laid to rest and smelted, to forge something anew.
