    Summary

    the girl was laughing. though jinx couldn't hear it, she knew it was pretty- soft, maybe, but pretty. all teeth. the kind that said look at me, fall for me, don't you want to? and ekko was looking.

    she could see the way his face was set. like he was trying, trying his hardest to feel something. the girl said something else with a gentle smile, batting thick lashes that jinx could see even from her post. his eyes weren’t guarded, weren’t annoyed or distant. there was effort in them.

    she'd seen that face before. the face of a man forcing something that just didn't fit.

    Summary

    It's her letter. Still sealed. Jinx stares as a black hole starts to form in her belly.

    He hasn’t read it.

    Before she can think, she moves across the room to that little notch in the tree tucked close to his bed (the sheets and pillow lay untouched, he’s not sleeping here) and reaches inside with fumbling fingers. Pulls out the hourglass buckle he’d made for her before the battle.

    Ekko doesn’t know she’s alive.

    Summary

    ekko looks at her— really looks at her, like he could pick out every artery and every vein spurring the mechanism of her inner framework by name, if she asked him to.

    stares, until she can see the tremble in his hands; the way his lashes clump together at the edges, like he still wants to cry. the damn-near unbearable warmth of him— of ekko, ekko, ekko, all tangled up in the mess of her, of jinx; fingers curling against her with the kind of selfishness that makes her think he was never going to learn his lesson.

    one, two. one, two.

    and then he kisses her.

    Summary

    Jinx and Ekko were once close friends, but everything changed when she joined Silco’s cause, turning them into bitter enemies.

    Summary

    Mercy. Their safe word is mercy.

    Jinx whispers the word, knowing that this small comfort is all Ekko needs to unleash himself.

    Outside of this room, Ekko acts all high and mighty, believing that he’s above the debauchery that makes this city their home. But behind these bedroom walls, behind the protection of a safe word, he is just like her: cruel and filthy and raw.

    She can’t get enough of it. She needs the thrill of watching him come undone.

    For years, Ekko and Jinx have indulged each other’s fantasies. They ignored the lines between them to explore the darkest parts within themselves.

    Now, Ekko has reached his limit. He wants to stop compromising his morals for a lover who will never stay. But the pull of desire is never quite so simple.

    One day the people will see why I call for bratty sub Jinx supremacy. This is a great example.

    Summary

    Powder steps over a puddle, glancing down at the shimmery reflection of herself. In her own face, she sees exactly how she feels; a scared girl, grown up faster than she was ever a child, still forever grieving a loss so overwhelming it has shaped the very essence of her being, driven her to strange lands chasing what might just be a fairytale, too good to be true, forever out of her reach.

    Then, her reflection glitches, and Powder flinches away from the puddle as bright violet eyes stare right back at her with a sorrow so deep it pierces right through her like a knife, only disappearing when she kicks at the water and shoves right past it. No time for reflections; she has family to find.

    ~~

    or: powder chases after ekko into a world she's completely unfamiliar with, seeking familiar faces. set post s2 act3, spoilers beware

    Summary

    Ekko found her in his parents' house.
    For a moment, all was still. He had just turned on the lights. Electricity was a miracle here knowing his parents barely ever came home and often forgot the bill, but he didn't feel quite so blessed at the sight of her curled up like a dead snail on the dusty old couch in the middle of the night.

    Summary

    Ekko could simplify it, debase and demystify it, insult it to all hell and call this feeling love.

    Home is blue and his love is blue and Ekko wants to claw out his eyes and give them to Jinx if it meant she could, for a moment, see herself in the ways that Ekko sees her.

    He stresses over this more than he’d ever admit.

    [Or, what happens when Ekko saves Jinx from the edge.
    Including the before, the in-between, and the after.]

    Summary

    "Like a twisted remake of the end of their last fight, Ekko steps in just as Jinx pulls the pin of a bomb – a more powerful, deadlier version of the bomb she’d used then to try and blow both of them up. He sees it happen nearly in slow-motion; her lonely silhouette in the middle of the fan blade-bridge, hair chopped short, head bowed; ripping herself to shreds before his eyes in a flash of bright blue and pink light. His hand yanks the Z-drive handle before he can even gasp, and green light flares out of it, undoing the pink and blue; Jinx’s pallid skin knits itself back together, the pin returns to the bomb and her dark Shimmer-pink eyes open back up, finger about to pull."

     

    Eventual smut, lots of angst, hurt/comfort, and two traumatised young adults trying to figure out if and how they can make their way back to each other.

    Summary

    He hates her as much as she loves him, for nothing good ever happened to people who loved her back. But he cares, and that's different because people who hate you but also care will not forget, because they will forget a kindness but not a curse. People remember curses, remember misfortune if only to avoid it, and she's enough of a sin to be unforgivable.
    He cares with his arms. His mouth licks and bites, for he, too, wants to be remembered. His fingers bruise flowers she likes to trace, he bruises the hate and the kindness she so craves. But his arms love, with warmth and security, with the knowledge that falling leaves a place to land. His arms hold her like she's something precious.

    Summary

    It’s like playing dress up, like they used to, because Vi wouldn’t ever. She strips him past his jacket to a tank top and pants and she traces the contractions of muscle under his arms where veins travel and converge with paint on her fingers.

    Ekko’s skin is more warm and alive than hers is anymore.

    For her he leaves splotches and swirls of paint all over. Arms, legs, chest, back. Into her side he sears a huge blue star. The pink under her cheeks count as another encounter with closeness and his eyes again. Only a small amount of it is rubbed away by a sweaty fist and laughter.

    She stands with both arms out, “Are you trying to mark me?”
