    Summary

    No, it couldn’t have been a dream. Every detail was etched into his mind, every daily figure, every death they represented. The pain, the way it had felt to die, seemed as though it had just been plucked from nerves still recoiling in its absence. He felt at his chest, drew a whole, sound breath under the splay of his fingers, his stomach comfortably full, with none of famine’s claws embedded in it yet.

    Yet. Was that- what was he taking those memories to be, then? Some sort of premonition? He’d never believed in such things, but their vividity absolutely refused to let him dismiss them as the byproduct of a brief doze, the random mutterings of his subconscious. Something remarkable had happened to him, and he was thousands of kilometres away from anyone who could have helped him decipher it.

    -

    In which the Bachelor dies, and then opens his eyes.

    Summary

    “I want,” the officer says, walking closer to Artemy, who tears his gaze away from Daniil in favour of the floor. Let them think his panic is because of the general situation, but they absolutely cannot be given the ammunition of figuring out the full extent of their relationship. “For you to explain why, after a year of searching, we find a wanted man in your house. Or do you not know how that came to be, Artemy Isidorovich?”

    Any hopes he could possibly have had left of getting out of this with both of them intact disappears. Artemy doesn’t know what to do, he can’t talk to people like this, not with the finesse you need to get out of this kind of situation – Artemy knows how to work with reputation and favours, necessity or hard work earning respect, he has no idea how to make a man like this officer change his mind on executing them both.

    OR: After a year, everything breaks; the Powers that Be were never going to let them get away, and Artemy struggles to breathe against the powerlessness as he has to figure out a way to put everything back together.

    OR 2: The chase is over, the rat is caught. You can find him, but it will take time, and it will hurt.

    Summary

    - Ты опять думаешь о счетах за электричество, ойнон? - Артемий доел огурцы и смотрел на него с еле уловимым умилением, - По глазам вижу, думаешь, я паразит.

    Как будто, если не платишь за квартиру сразу из человека превращаешься в ленточного червя.

    Summary

    “… I’d say good morning,” Dankovsky said at length, a little hoarsely, “but I’m afraid I’ve lost track of the time. Good … something, Haruspex.”

    “Afternoon. You look—” Artemy began, and broke off.

    “Yes? What ghoulish thing do I resemble today?” Daniil blew out some smoke, staring pensively ahead. “A striga, perhaps.”

    “—better,” Artemy finished. “Less like you’d gone already, and are only haunting me.”

    That shut Daniil’s mouth.

    Summary

    " If you want me to tell you, I’d have to play the part of the Devil. And you’d have to give me your soul.”

    Khan and Capella commiserate over the comical mishandling of the more normal lessons in life. They were taught to be leaders, to be attuned to the supernatural, but when it came to being future adults their teachers often forgot. Perhaps not thinking they'd make it this far.

    Navigating a relationship is much more difficult when one has to learn-as-they-go. And sometimes cutting corners is necessary, regardless of future consequences.

    Summary

    So what if his former associates thought of him as a lowlife? So what if he was disgraced from academia? So long as he was still welcomed back into the town-on-Gorkhon, nothing else mattered.
    With quivering hands, he picked up the letter and carefully opened it as though he was afraid something would jump out at him from inside it. But nothing had changed, it was the exact same as when he had first read it a week ago.

    Bachelor Daniil Dankovsky,
    There is another way.
    — Victoria Olgimskaya Sr., The Light Mistress.

    Yes, there was hope for him still, and hope he would cling to till death did them part.

    ———

    Over a year later, Daniil Dankovsky returns to the Town, with a letter from a dead woman and a ticking time bomb inside his own body, in a last-ditch effort to defeat death.

    Summary

    Даниилу Данковскому не до письма Исидора и уж тем более не до богом забытого города — к нему обращается сам лидер Боевой организации эсеров с предложением о финансировании и покровительстве. Данковский отказать не смеет, и город, лишенный третьего спасителя, оказывается разбомблен. Однако даже уничтоженный Горхонск зовет его: спустя три года новоиспеченный эсер прибывает на руины города. Приказ — исследовать загадочную Третью Вспышку чумы, прозванной Снежной Язвой, и заложить фундамент для организации нового террористического отряда. Удивлению Данковского нет предела, когда в качестве лидера отряда он встречает не человека от партии, а… погорельца из города, степняка и знахаря Артемия Бураха.

     

    AU, в которой капризные Власти повели Город по совершенно иному пути, с легкой руки добавив элемент одной интересной временной эпохи. А персонажи вынуждены разгребать последствия.

    Summary

    The Town and the Kin, an Odongh had once whispered, were sewn together wrong. The plague had torn those old connections apart, and it was left to Artemy Burakh to suture the severed halves back together in a better way. Blood could, and would, flow through them as one common body. And it would, and must, start with solidarity.

    This, too, could be its own form of utopia.

    In which Artemy unionises the butchers and workers, strikes against the rulers, and finds a new way to unite the Town.

    Summary

    "Yeah. I've been teaching the kid about the Kin traditional medicine, keeping him out of trouble the best I can. Though you'd probably say I'm indoctrinating him with backwater lies or some bullshit like that," Artemy spat.

    Daniil contemplated for a second more. "I think we've been tricked."

    Artemy chuckled, shaking his head in disbelief. "Go on."

    "Sticky is my apprentice, Burakh," Daniil revealed at last. "I have been teaching him pharmacology and medicine—or I've been trying to. Unless he has an evil twin like the Changeling, he's been two-timing us."

    Sticky doesn't get why his mentors Daniil and Artemy are at each other's throats all the time. He takes matters into his own hands.

    Summary

    Maybe the others are inside, waiting for him. It’s very unlikely. The wait, that is. His scattered mind won’t stop conjuring up the image of neatly lined up bodies waiting for the latecomer to enter the stage, but as it is, it must be empty, the stage settings a pile of papier maché left to rot. Nothing to be saved.

    He could have saved her. Could have saved a lot more, really. Should have. But he didn’t have the time. What a joke, and a painful cackle escapes his lungs. Now the Cathedral’s clock is broken, because the other woman takes all the space, leaves no interstice for the time to seep through. He had so much of it, at first, and so little parsimony. He spent it on the most trivial things.

    A broken croak escapes from the belly of the beast, that makes every one of his vertebrae shiver in anguish. Half past five.

    The lacking mass writhes once more from delight.

    Summary

    1 September 2165 will be remembered as a momentous day that rattled the scientific world and upended what humanity thought was possible.

    On this day, Thanatica Laboratories completed its greatest project yet: the AVA, a robot that carries within it the sum of a human being. It is a rebirth most marvelous. A breakthrough like never before.

    And most sacrilegiously, a Focus for none other than the soul of Daniil Dankovsky, the man who dreamed of defeating Death.

    Ad Vitam Aeternam.

    -----

    A 22nd century Thanatica AU with some illustrated chapters.

    Summary

    Потолок вдруг стал ближе. В тусклом свете луны было видно, что он навис примерно в метре над Мишкой. Она присмотрелась и увидела, что никакой это не потолок, а дверь. Та самая заколоченная дверь, и она всё приближалась, пока не замерла, почти коснувшись Мишкиного носа.
