Summary
She shuts her eyes, briefly, listening to the water below and the chatter of the crew all about her. One, two, three, four, five deep breaths. A brief bit of rest, and then returning to her regimen until called into battle once more. Yes, a bit of regularity in the comfort of her own home will do her good.
“Uhh- General Kujou,” a nearby sailor ventures tentatively. Sara opens her eyes to find him squinting at the docks, now close enough that the shapes of people bustling about are visible. “Isn’t that Arataki Itto?”
(or: Sara returns from the war front and finds an annoyingly familiar face waiting for her.)

disturbance of the peace (in the form of beetle hunting) by intheKnickoftime

Summary
It’s his eyes that betray him- rather than focusing on Sara, as he is so often wont to do with that irritating overconfidence of his, they dart repeatedly to the side, his crimson gaze caught on something else entirely. Sara tilts her head, trying to catch sight of it, and- ah.
“You’re hunting beetles again.” It isn’t a question, and he’s doing absolutely nothing to hide the fact of his preoccupation. It’s almost amusing, how transparently he displays his emotions.
“I- yeah. I’m hunting beetles,” Itto admits, looking faintly embarrassed.
(or: Sara tries to catch a moment of peace. Itto disturbs her, because of course he does.)

Summary
There is something amiss in Ketterdam.
To the Caracal, who’s always worn the grime and smog of the city as a sort of cloak, it should be of no concern. Yet strings are pulled, and an offer is put on the table: twenty million Kruge for the brutal bastard who can manage to scrape together a solution.
As the Bastard of the Barrel and lauded jewel of the city’s underbelly, it seems a heist is in order.
A Wraith. A sharpshooter, A Heartrender, a wayward son. A former witch hunter, a cat with claws that’ll grasp for anything within his reach- and some things outside of it.
Join the six on a journey to remember, filled with secrets, betrayal, and perhaps a little bit of good, old fashioned luck. This is Ketterdam as you’ve never seen before.
Welcome to the Hyacinth Heist.
[a soc!ph au. Hold onto your wigs. And also your valuables.]

Summary
If they were in public, she would rein herself in, always gracious, always poised. She would not hike up her skirts and run to him. She certainly would not call his name like this, not when she is a Kamisato and he is merely her retainer.
But they are not in public, and he is not merely a servant.
or: the scene I wish we had gotten.

Summary
Lauren and Kieran have a long way to go in trusting each other again. This'll end up being a loosely connected set of one-shots depicting all the delicious angst and self-reflection that happens along the way. Maybe at some point I'll write them *actually* making amends, as a treat. We'll seeeee~

Summary
"I’m sorry. You didn't have to. But thank you, William." He should be surprised that the hug she gives him isn't awkward, but he's not.
How could her arms ever feel like anything other than coming home?
