    Summary

    When a body is found lashed to a pier piling in Martinaise, Harry and Kim must figure out how it got there, who put it there, and why. Which is hard when there is nothing identifiable on the body and nobody seemed to have cared enough about whoever it was to report them missing. Harry must do what he does best: interrogate everyone in this goddamn town about things seemingly unrelated to the case, while Kim does what he does best: keep Harry out of trouble when possible and get into the trouble with him when not.

    Meanwhile, another part of Harry's brain is devoted to figuring out exactly when he started being able to discern whole sentences from a raise of Kim's eyebrow or a twitch of his finger, and what the warm feeling that settles in his chest every time that happens means.

    Summary

    He knows he’s misdirecting all of his frustration at Harry, who’s simply being considerate to someone in need, but he hates feeling like a charity case. He doesn’t need to be babysat. He’s Kim fucking Kitsuragi, he will not be rendered useless by a piece of junk mail.

    Kim calls in sick to work, and he’s perfectly content not to let anyone at the precinct know why. So of course Harry shows up at his apartment, eager to give Kim a helping hand. Turns out you can really, truly screw up something as simple as accepting someone’s help if your name’s Kim Kitsuragi.

    Summary

    “Charles.” Arthur broke the quiet, his eyes not abandoning the sight. “When all of this is over… Can you promise me you’ll be alright? Can you promise me to get yourself out and not look back?” He finally turned his head towards him, only to find Charles already looking back at him. Their eyes seemed to hold a silent conversation of their own, not breaking contact for even a second.

    “I promise.” He whispered. A weight got lifted off of Arthur’s chest at that. He knew Charles could keep his promise, he had no doubt in trusting him on that. “But I’m getting you out, too.”

    Or: Charles finds out about Arthur's condition and sets his mind on getting him out - Even though he knows it's too late.
    (Set during chapter 6, title and quotes from the song "Shrike" by Hozier)
