    Summary

    A gloved hand landed on his back, successfully breaking what little concentration Ed had been keeping to stay balanced, and his face was very quickly planted in wet and sticky sand. He tried to get up, tried to force his body to work, but nothing helped. A pained whine left his throat, and the gloved hand was now trying to push him onto his back.

    A sound fell from his bloody lips, unheard by its owner as he was pulled to Roy’s chest. Ed couldn’t help but curl into the hold, burying his face in the Colonel’s jacket, no doubt staining it with his blood. Roy said nothing, or maybe he did, his chest simply vibrating as he started running, moving swiftly through debris and over discarded bodies. So many had fallen this day, and there was nothing they could do about it, not anymore. Funny how things work, as the last thing Ed saw before it all faded to black was his superior yelling something to him, fear plain in his eyes.

    Summary

    Spencer Reid grew up believing love was sacrifice. So when Ryan lashes out, belittles, and dominates, Spencer doesn’t flee. He convinces himself it’s just part of love—that this is what it means to be chosen.

    To the BAU, Ryan is perfect: supportive, charming, everything Spencer deserves. So when Spencer pulls away—lashing out, crumbling apart—they assume he’s falling back in old habits. No one asks. No one sees.

    Bruised, isolated, and breaking, Spencer still believes in one thing: Love demands pain. And Ryan agrees.

    Summary

    Jaskier knows that he's being hunted. He knows, eventually, he will be captured. He knows too much about Geralt-- about Witchers in general-- to get caught without proper preparation. So he sets out, looking for Witchers to entrust with the things he values most. The things he can't let Nilfgaard get their hands on.

    It's in his nature to play tricks, to steal. And stealing from the White Flame is fun. Until his mind slowly decends into madness.

    Summary

    Jaskier ends a tiring performance with a drink only to wake up in a dark cell, bound and chained. He is alone save for the witcher confined to the cell next to him who won’t even share his name with Jaskier. Their captors want information he cannot give.

    Betrayed by his own brother, Aiden has endured months of torture, so many days passing that he stopped keeping count. A new prisoner arrives just as he is losing hope of ever setting his feet upon the grass again. While no one came for him – such is the life of a witcher – perhaps someone cares about the bard enough to track down the madmen holding them hostage.
