Harry looked at the blond kid who had just saved his life and wondered. "How the hell did I get here? Where ever here is... and why do I suddenly owe this innocent looking kid a life debt?

Summary
"For someone who lived in Dema all her life, you're pretty good at running."
"It's probably just about the only thing I'm good at."
Running and lying, she reminded herself.
Both of things had gotten her to this point in her life, and she didn't know whether or not it was a good or a bad thing. Well, she supposed to herself, being free of Dema and of the Bishops was a good thing, but having to lie to those she was growing close with, well... That was probably the bad thing.[i'm really bad at summaries sorz]

Summary
Noctis wakes up again, 16 and untempered. His father is still alive, and somewhere out there in the wider world, Ardyn Izunia is opening his own eyes again.
He expects Ardyn to hunt him down, demand answers that he doesn’t have. Answers the Astrals won’t give him - they seem content to remain silent to him now, scorning him as they scorn Ardyn.
(Perhaps in the end he wept a little too much for the man he killed, a man that on some level, he came to rely on as much as the others around him. A man that shaped him with violence and ill-will, that taught him his boundaries and just how far he could push them. Perhaps his world grew a little too grey with him gone, and the last fragments of will he had were swept away, his fate solidified.)
Instead, Ardyn comes to him dressed in the crimson of an altered Glaive uniform, and bends knee.
(If he won’t allowed to die as Noctis’ enemy, he’ll die as his most stalwart defender instead, a Shield crafted from the bones of a Healer-King, broken and forged anew.)

It's Newt the one who tells him, there's no way the shadow wreaking through Europe isn't an Obscurus. It's Newt's plan what puts them on the road. But he knows Credence Barebone had mattered far too much to Percival, and if saving this boy he's never met can be the thing that will keep him sane... Theseus isn't going to let him slip through the cracks again.
Glimpsing a chance of getting back at Gellert Grindelwald helps, too.

From painful separations and evil Autobots to dangerous journeys and odd travel companions, the two begin to heal as they learn the meaning of having faith in others.
Which Whirl thinks is a bit too sentimental for his tastes, but who cares about what he thinks, anyway?
