Just Alex; Alex Casey

When a case gone wrong leads to a confession, Casey is unsure how to act around her.

Warnings: hostage situation, stabbing, slight jealous!casey

This takes place before Alan Wake 2. Also, I'm only like half-way through, so he may be out-of-character.

Alex Casey loves coffee, anybody who knows him was aware of this. There was never a point in time when he was free and was seen without his beloved drink. Perhaps it was unhealthy – an addiction – but he couldn’t find him in it to care. With the stress of everything, coffee was the thing that made him feel better, well… one of the things.

Y/N was his co-worker, his partner in crime, if you will. She helped him feel better too, maybe even more than coffee did. Y/N was many things: kind, sweet, funny, and a coffee addict also; that was potentially a reason that the pair got along so well.

“Morning, Casey,” Y/N greeted the mentioned man with a smile the moment she spotted him entering the office, two cups in hand.

“I’ve told you before, Y/N, just Alex is fine,” he grumbled, passing her the coffee cup, a daily occurrence between them.

“I know, but then everyone looks at me weirdly, so…”

Because you’re the only person I let call me Alex, he thought to himself with an internal roll of the eyes.

Casey simply sighed and sipped his own coffee.

The case that they were working was tough. There were no leads and neither of the duo knew where to go with it next, which is why they brought in Graham.

Graham was around their age, a cop from the town that they were currently working in, and Casey did not like him one bit.

“Y/N, why don’t you come with me, and I’ll show you around?” Graham grinned as he pointed towards his car, completely ignoring her partner as he did so.

The woman, however, seemed oblivious to the flirtatious offer that the cop gave, smiling politely and looking towards Casey. “Me and Casey have got somewhere to be soon; a meeting with something very important.”

Casey shot her a look. They had nowhere else to be, nor any leads, so why was she saying this? She simply nodded at him.

“Oh, all right,” Graham said, clearly annoyed that Casey came first. “Maybe another time?”

“Absolutely!” She smiled, although it didn’t quite meet her eyes. “See you later.”

A relieved sigh left her lips the moment Graham was out of earshot.

“We have something to meet? Did you mean someone?” Casey asked bluntly, confusion filling his face when she laughed.

“Coffee, Casey. We have a meeting with coffee.” She grinned, this time it completely meeting her eyes and he couldn’t help the small smile that crawled onto his lips. “I couldn’t stand listening to him flirt any longer, it was awful.”

“You realised? You seemed oblivious,”

“Years of being around men will teach you to act that way, Casey.”

He grumbled. “Just Alex is fine.”

The case had gotten intense, and Y/N and Casey were currently hunting the killer. Back-up was on the way, but they had to chase the killer alone, or else they’d lose him for God knows how long.

Guns drawn, the pair rushed after the shadows of the suspect, muddy footsteps mixed with blood being their lead.

“FBI! Show yourself!” Y/N called into the wooded area, eyes darting around the scene, looking for the killer or anything that may reveal his location.

Casey was behind her, watching their backs just in case, but a gasp from his partner had him spinning around.

In front of him stood the killer, Y/N in his arms with a gun to her head. His body froze, yet his face remained neutral, his own gun raised towards the killer. He couldn’t get a clear shot of him, but hopefully it would deter him from doing something stupid.

“Drop your weapon,” Casey demanded, heart racing.

“Or what?” The killer taunted. “You’ll shoot? I’ll just shove your pretty little girlfriend here in front of me.”

Y/N remained silent, focusing on her breathing whilst planning how to get out of this mess. Her gun had been grabbed and tossed the moment he got a hold of her, so that was no use, but the knife on her thigh…

Casey was stumped for what to do. He was right, of course, shooting at him would just get Y/N in more danger, and that was the last thing that he wanted; he never wanted her in danger. Back-up was likely nowhere near and possibly had no idea where they were.

“Look,” He had to stall for time, “I know you’re scared, but hurting her will just give you less options.” Casey had no idea what he was saying and had to force himself to keep his gaze on the killer and not the woman he had grown fond of that was in danger. “I’m a witness, remember.”

The killer tensed at his words. “You know nothing about what I’m feeling.” He spat. “You’ve never known true fear.”

“I have, and I am right now.”

“Why!?”

The gun was on him now, perfect.

Y/N’s arm slowly inched towards the knife strapped to her thigh whilst she prayed Casey could keep him distracted.

“Because you’re holding her hostage,”

“And that matters why?”

Almost there, Y/N thought to herself, the conversation going on unheard by her as she focused.

“Because I love her.”

The moment she had hold of the knife, she swung it into the killer’s thigh, feeling his grip on her and the gun release as he stumbled backwards. Casey’s eyes widened, both at the confession that had just hit him and the fact that Y/N had stabbed him.

Y/N’s own eyes widened in shock at her actions as she let out a breath that she was unaware that she had been holding. “Oh my God,” she gasped, turning to face the killer who was lying on the floor. Without thinking, she rushed towards him, unsure of what to do; Casey did the same.

“Here,” Casey handed Y/N her usual coffee as she sat in the empty office.

“Thanks,” she muttered, curling into her soaked FBI jacket.

Casey took note of her shivering form and excused himself before coming back with his dry jacket, passing it to her. “Take this.” He spoke.

“Thank you,” she said, finally looking up at him from where she was sat.

The silence was comfortable, at least to her; Casey had no idea what to say to her, assuming she had heard his earlier confession.

“Casey,” Y/N broke the silence, “are you all right? You look uncomfortable.”

“I’m sorry for what I said earlier. It was out of line, and I shouldn’t have said it.” He rushed.

“What did you say? Have I missed something?” She asked, cuddling into his jacket.

It smells like him, she noted.

“In the forest, before you…” He trailed off.

“I’ll be honest, Alex, I wasn’t listening.”

The use of his name had his cheeks flushing red. “You finally said it,”

“Well, yeah. You kind of saved my life, I think I owe you.”

“Saved your life? How?”

Y/N smiled softly, reaching out to take his hand and give it a gentle squeeze.

“You kept him distracted long enough for me to grab my knife, idiot. Now, what were you on about?”

Alex sighed quietly, taking a sip of his coffee. “It’s nothing.”

Y/N glanced at him, his awkwardness something she wasn’t used to seeing on him. Something was up, and she wanted to know what.

"Did you say you loved me or something?” She joked, eyes widening as he pulled his hand away from her own and tensed. “Oh, you did.”

She watched as he quickly stood to his feet. “Forget about it,” he muttered, turning to leave.

“Alex, c’mon.” You can’t just rush off when I find out you feel the same.”

Her words had him freezing in place, slowly turning to face her.

“The same?”

“That is what I said, yes.”

He smiled. “You mean that?”

“Obviously, you idiot,”

The pair smiled at each other as he took a seat opposite her once again. Y/N’s hand found his again, the warmth shooting through their bodies the moment their skin touched.

Sure, it might have been a life-or-death situation that got them to admit their feelings, but at least they got there.

“It took you years to call me Alex, I will never forget that.”

“We were having a moment…”

Hypothermia

At last, Alan Wake escapes the Dark Place for good, but stumbles in the way out when an unnatural cold freezes over his very core. Luckily he's not alone this time, and the people he loves the most help him warm up.

Pairings: Alan Wake/Alice Wake/Barry Wheeler × Alan Wake/Alice Wake × Alan Wake/Barry Wheeler × Alice Wake & Barry Wheeler ♦ Words: 3215

[on ao3] ♦ [on squidgeworld] ♦ [read on site]

 What once was a fancy suit now was hardly distinguishable from the dark place he was trapped in, sticking, wrapping around his skin slick and wet like dark seaweed around an unsuspecting diver. Alan didn't know when he started shivering, when his hands gave up trying to take off the damned thing, when his eyes started losing focus and the newfound heartbeat started feeling slower and slower, but before the dark (not The Dark, but close enough to make him sick) could claim him hands shined in that darkness.

 They helped him. They always did. Alice loosened the noose of his tie and struggled with the buttons that appeared to be melted on the fabric as Barry took off everything else, layer after layer after layer. Alan didn't remember wearing those many layers, but the thing that was being peeled by his best friend could hardly be described as clothing anymore.

 Even as the last layer of thin film-like substance was removed from his body and quickly replaced by a dry towel he felt weak. The slick cold still stuck to his skin like a disease, and Alan feared the prospect of never getting rid of it, after so much struggle, after so many years. Gentle hands rubbed the towel against his skin, against his heavy wet hair, his bushy beard, long extremities too numb to try to do it on their own.

 He could hear them talking around him, voices floating aimlessly without him being able to catch them, but regardless Alan smiled weakly, almost feverish, at that. When was the last time his beloved wife and best friend seemed to be on the same page together? Vague threads of memory resurfaced slowly as the warmth of the towel started to sink in, echoes in the dark that could have been real as much as deceptive, and the mere fact that they could have had happened in the past decades without him knowing, without him being there, made a pit on his stomach. He had lost so much time with them.

 "Here you go, Al, drink this."

 Alan could only make a nondescript noise at the sight of a steaming cup of something, larger hands wrapping around his own as Barry helped him take the cup to his lips. Hot chocolate. Oh, it had been a while since he last had a hot chocolate, hadn't it? He almost chokes on the drink as grief threatened to close off his throat, if not for the sets of hands cupping his own and caressing his feeble neck.

 The warmth penetrated his body in small yet thick doses, down his throat and through his veins. It was uncomfortable, it almost hurt, too, but he took it in stride. With it Alan could feel some of his senses coming back as he held on tighter to the mug with his own hands, taking a deep breath through his nose and letting it flow freely trough his lips, seeing the steam curl around in the air as it disappeared into the room... Which room was it? For a second Alan hoped, feared, to see his very own room in Parliament Tower, but they were clearly not in it. No, this room was smaller, both messier and emptier in a way that made him feel vaguely melancholic, with a framed photograph sitting on the other side of it.

 He recognized Barry immediately, like a mirage, but it took him longer to recognize himself at his side.

 Has he's even been in that room? In that house? Did Barry move? Did something happen? Alan couldn't remember. Was any of this even real?

 Before he could ponder further he felt the towel being taken off his shoulders, and even though it had grown cold with time a complaint escaped him nonetheless, finding a small comfort on the pressure of it. Such complaint died as soon as it started when he felt a different kind of warmth envelop him instead, arms slipping through his waist to wrap around his stomach, pulling him closer.

 Barry looked different from what he remembered, he wasn't too far gone to not realize something bad had happened despite the vague feeling that he should know exactly what, but in that moment, in that hug, he was the same old Barry Wheeler he knew and loved since they were children. A crushing hug with an excess of concern and anxiety that made him bark a weak laugh for the first time in a very long time. Skin against skin the remnants of his subnatural cold quickly extinguished as he shivered for entirely different reasons.

 To lay together to avoid the deadly cold, now that was an old cliché if he ever saw one. He would be lying if he said he never used it himself in one of his books, the appeal was clear, but he couldn't figure out how they could possibly imagine the situation applied here. Decades of continuous drowning in the Dark Place was not a mere case of hypothermia.

 Regardless, he leaned into it. Alan leaned into him in that tight space the same way he would wrap inside an old cozy blanket in a cold, cold winter night.

 Looking up for what it felt the first time he met the gaze of his beautiful, wonderful wife with surprise. As much as he could muster, anyway. Former apprehensions wanted to crawl up his skin with the slow dawning of the scene, feeling the comfortable warmth of his best friend's front and side enveloping him completely from behind, wanting to sink into it yet dreading the bickering that it might entice. But Alice's eyes reflected back only the profound love he was feeling at the moment, coupled with a deep sense of sadness directed at the scene.

 Before Alan could grab her hand and tug her into his aching arms, however, something else distracted him. Hot tears were rolling down his back to split where skin met skin, leaving a burning trail on it. Barry was crying, messy and snotty and pressing his cheek on his shoulder blades as he buried his hands on the hollow of his stomach.

 The memory of leaving him on the well-lit room flashed on his mind's eye, desperately trying to derive meaning as the loops and years built and crumpled like sandcastles on his mind. But he did remember leaving him for what he hoped wasn't the last time. And as he tried and failed to turn around to face him, Alan twisted enough to lean his forehead against Barry's head, wrapping a stiff arm around it to bring him closer than physically possible, his other hand grasping his tight embrace until his fingers hurt with the effort.

 Nudging the ever receding hairline with the tip of his nose, Alan couldn't help but smile when Barry cried harder. He had always been a bit of a crybaby, ever since they were kids.

 His burning cheek and fuzzy chest pressed tightly against his naked back were new. So were the heavy hands anchoring on his front as if he tried to keep him in that plane of existence all by himself. Knowing Barry, he probably was. He, however, didn't say a word as the mattress shifted under the added pressure of Alice, who silently joined the embrace and quickly warmed up the places that were left untouched, making a place for herself between his tucked legs and bare neck.

 Alan took a deep, shaky breath, swallowing on the verge of but not quite overwhelmed. This was so much better than the towel.

 Just like that he got swayed by the newer, kinder currents of hands, and warmth, and flesh, digits mapping skin that hasn't been kissed by the sun in a long long time, lips that tried to do its job instead. He nearly let himself be pulled under once again, not by a cold and dark ocean but a bright one, loving, when the memory of touch sparked slowly on his mind. It had been a while, hasn't it? He couldn't remember the last time he was touched like that, akin that.

 Except that'd be a lie, because he did remember.

 Flashes of touch, bright, and loud, got thrown into the mix that was his scrambled brain. Flashes of touch, and sex, and death, of holding a man holding him down, holding a gun. Blood dripping down his face blood dripping down from his face. Pulling the trigger. Kissing him. Tasting copper behind his teeth.

 Suddenly the calming contact burned his skin and Alan jumped further into the mattress, shielding his body and face with his arms, feeling shameful under the gaze of the woman he loved so, so dearly.

 "I'm... I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Mortification bloomed on his throat like icy water, replacing the newfound warmth inside of him. "I'm sorry, Alice, I- I..."

 Beyond the shield that were his arms he could see the confusion painting his loved ones' features, and he simply curled tighter when Alice tried to reach for him.

 "Hey," she said, reassuringly, as if talking to a frightened animal, "it's okay, Alan. You're here now, you're safe. We're both safe."

 "Y... yeah, but-" Guilt started dawning of him, of things done over and over again. He remembered now, seeking that same warmth with the one person who pulled him under again and again and loving every second of it. At least until their collaborations went too far, and he got twisted beyond recognition. Playing a sick character on a twisted fantasy.

 He rolled his ring with his thumb, his only real landline back when he could hardly retain anything that wasn't his fucking name. Not that it ended up mattered much, apparently. The feeling of sweat, and blood, and other fluids sticking grossly to his body like a stain he couldn't clean.

 "I... Alice, I cheated. I cheated and I, I've done worse. I've- I've done some terrible things, I-" The Taken didn't bleed, then why did he remembered so much blood on his hands? On his skin? Paired with the utmost certainty that it was all his fault. So much pain and suffering, all of it, he- He didn't deserve this, this love, he-

 Delicate hands grabbed him by the wrists, touch soft, yet firm, as they uncovered his panicked face and then made him look up. Alice held his face unflinching, with an alarming lack of surprise on her features beyond a knowing shadow on her eyes, a light crease on her eyebrows that he so wished to smooth over. Had he already told her that? Instead, she caressed his cheeks with her thumbs before leaning her forehead on his.

 "Alan." Her voice was clear, understanding, yet not lenient. He braced himself for whatever she had to say, already expecting anger, painful words that he could almost remember hearing with her voice, but reality wasn't as indulging. Alice nudged the tip of his nose with hers, the ghost of a smile gracing her features. "You're home. That's all that matters to me. That's all that matters, for now."

 The striking blue of her eyes was blinding and disarming, and as the tension left his body he couldn't help but sob. He felt like choking, but instead of angry tears against the cold wood they met his wife's hands and lips as she kissed his quivering mouth, over and over again before wrapping her arms around him. Alice was trembling too. Feeling her close, so close as she burrowed her face on the hollow of his neck and he clung to her back for the first time in a lifetime, he could easily feel her trembling as he cried.

 Behind the blood drumming loudly on his ears and the sobbing, however, Alan eventually heard a foreign sniffling, and despite the mixed feelings of guilt and death and love and gratitude he raised his gaze enough to look at his friend, sitting on the far corner of the mattress.

 Barry was drying what little was still wet of his face with a hand, looking anywhere but them to give them some space, and with an air of embarrassment. He lingered as if he had the intention to leave but couldn't will himself to do it, and if Alan was being honest, he didn't want him to.

 He couldn't remember more than bits and pieces, but he could remember that he forgot, forgot about Alice, her voice, her face; forgot about Barry, too. He might not deserve them, but he didn't want to forget them ever again, as long as he was alive. With a trembling hand he wrapped his fingers around his shoulder, calling his attention. His puffy eyes met him immediately, and something curious happened.

 He watched Barry watching him, watching Alice, and Alice shifted inside his embrace. Holding his breath and his tears for a second for an old-time sense of pride he could feel an implicit question in the air, and an answer he couldn't catch before his breath got knocked out from him by his friend jumping to join in the hug, throwing them out of balance in the process.

 Alan cried, and laughed, a relieved and wet squeak that somehow found its way around tangled limbs and tangled sheet, a warm cacophony strangled between the two bodies of the people he loved the most, holding him tight.

 Time kept ticking on the real world. Time wasn't a stagnant thing that echoed in it itself, a perpetual night that could last centuries. Here Alan could actually see the way the room changed color as sunlight touched his face, the walls and finally the ceiling, could feel Alice burying herself on her side with leftover fear as the yellow and orange tinge of the air grew darker, as Barry moved around the apartment in quick motion, reassuring him. (Reassuring them?)

 Alan wondered what he was doing, eyes closed sometime ago as the cathartic cry left him weak of mind and body. But as the light behind his eyelids slowly dawned it quickly got replaced by a myriad of colors, and that easily sparked a buried memory. He opened his eyes to christmas lights hanged high around the room.

 "Barry. Really?"

 "What? You never know when you're gonna need them." When he sat on the bed again he was wearing an old band shirt, one that Alan swore seemed familiar. "They actually made a show about that, you know? You have to watch it sometime."

 Alice groaned. Alan smile widened, sleepy yet curious, less so about whatever show his beloved friend was talking about and more about her reaction. Have they had this conversation before? Alice never seemed to be completely at ease when Barry was around, back then, but now...

 Well.

 If Alan had any piece of mind he might have actually been surprised to his own almost complete nudity, and the lesser, yet still surprising amount of skin they both were seemingly comfortable showing around each other, but he was beyond any of that at the moment. Sleep wanting to join their embrace as he clung to consciousness, to the people around him that he didn't want to part with, didn't want to sink back into darkness despite the treacherous yawn that escaped his mouth.

 Around him Barry chucked, and Alice nuzzled the side of his face with a smile that tickled his skin, before cupping his cheek and peppering him with kisses. Alan was too exhausted to answer, humming instead, long and deep. She really wasn't helping... feeling his friend's hand on his hair, starting to mess with it before combing it with his fingers, didn't help either.

 "Hey Al," Barry started, mocking smile tainted by fondness, "have I've ever told you... you remind me of a cat? A big, cranky cat."

 He huffed an indignant noise, bluffing an annoyance that he couldn't muster to feel, not now, with Alice's surprised laugh pressed against his skin.

 "He really does, doesn't he?" Alan wanted to argue, yet he couldn't do more than melt against her hand as it slid down his cheek and beard, mapping the hollow of his neck and collarbone, caressing each and every muscle like a precious thing. The motion sparked on his mind the image of a cat sprawled at length, purring loudly as multitude of hands groomed him. Unfortunately, he saw the resemblance.

 "He's knocked out cold, huh? Can't even defend himself..."

 "Well, he must be exhausted... He's been through... he's been through a lot..."

 "Yeah, no shit... Wait, you-?"

 "Mhm."

 Sighing heavily, he started resigning to his sleeping fate lulled by their voices, only tangentially aware of their conversation. He had been through a lot. He could feel it on his aching bones.

 "How... What was it even-?"

 "It was Hell."

 The silence was deafening, then, prelude of memories being drowned by the drag of skin and the flickering of colored light.

 "I..." The lips on his neck hesitated, before Alice shifted again, laying her head on his chest. "I am sorry, by the way. I really am."

 Pressed at his side he felt Barry tense a bit, and Alan finally, finally croaked, confused at the lingering apology.

 "'bout what?"

 Both heads turned to face him, in unexpected surprise.

 "About..." Alice's gaze jumped between them, before smiling a rather sad smile. "Well, the things I did. And the things I, I had to do. I'm sorry about everything I had to do."

 Alan had no idea what she was talking about, but with the very last bit of strength he slowly shifted and held her even closer to his chest. Nothing she could ever do would be as terrible to warrant such sadness on her eyes. Alice held on tighter, holding her breath.

 At his side, Barry shifted too, eventually. Face now smooshed against an arm that didn't have any more energy to embrace him properly while he wrapped his own around his stomach, like the world's worst giant pillow, before doing something that surprised Alan even in the state he was in. While his arm laid around him his hand reached further, giving Alice's arm a light squeeze before keeping it close by. The reply to that was a simple smile, and a calmer exhale.

 As everything he's seen since he got out of the Dark Place, Alan wondered about that gesture too. He'll have to ask them to fill in the details when they had the time, for he did not trust his own looping and tainted memory. What was real? What was a nightmare, a fabrication, or wishful thinking? He needed to hear it from them. He needed to hear everything.

 But they both waited so much time for him, he could wait some more for them.

 For now, Alan simply laid there inside the embrace of the two people he loved most in the world, bathed in the flickering christmas light. The coming darkness when he finally closed his eyes was dulled by the faint colors, former ache on his bones lulled by the human warmth that surrounded him now. Between feeling the rise and fall of their breathing and hearing their lingering conversations, for the first time in many, many years, Alan Wake was able to sleep in peace.

I’m shipping Alan Wake and Agent Casey in a fucked up psychosexual obsessive “we are relentlessly drawn to each other” way.

Casey: am I real? entangled in this mess by a man selfishly and blindly pulling at fate’s strings? or a creation meant to serve as a means to an end? Do I want to protect you because you look so lost and fragile—or because a thing meant to serve a purpose always desires to do so? How could you be a god and be so fragile?

Alan: From the moment I created you (did I create you? Or was I just seeing you?) I loved you. I thought about you for hours and days and years. I know exactly how you take your coffee and the way you heart aches when you see birds in winter branches and the dark sharp thoughts that slide into your mind in the early hours—I know you as well as my own mind. Now that you’re flesh, how can I not want to hold you? How can I not want to cling to a thing I love in this sea of darkness? How could I bear to be rejected by you—even knowing all you’ve suffered at my own callous manipulations of fate? I know I don’t deserve you or your forgiveness but still I seek it out like eyes seek out light

I am looking for a beta for my Namine Wake AU. Must be familiar with both Alan Wake/Remedy and Kingdom hearts.

Pitch: Namine has been hiding a large secret. She's not actually Kairi's nobody. She's actually human, the daughter of celebrated author Alan Wake and his photographer wife, Alice. Too bad she was a kid born in an attempt to fix their marriage and then her dad disappeared when she was three. She was ignored a lot by Alice and when she erased everyone's memories of her... well nothing changed for them as she found herself with Organization XIII.

Now with the events of Kingdom Hearts 3 behind her, Namine feels a compulsion to track down her parents with the help of Riku and Kairi. Unfortunately, the events of Alan Wake 2 Final Draft means that Namine - real name Ailana - has stumbled into something that she didn't expect. And now she has to rely on others if they are ALL to get out of danger.

Problem: My main beta has not played Alan Wake 2. My other beta person has not FINISHED Alan Wake 2 and is not super familiar with Kingdom Hearts. My brother has done both but is not a great beta. I can tell there is problems I want to work though but I don't want to worry about spoilers. Please message me - not ask. My inbox is not working currently - if you want to help me. F

Monochrome beauty

Thomas Zane wasn't the only person who could shape the dark world around him and the people within it, he knew that, but being caught in the currents of someone else's art was… Interesting, to say the least. To be at the mercy of a muse, for a change.

Pairing: Alice Wake/Thomas Zane ♦ Words: 862

[on ao3] ♦ [on squidgeworld] ♦ [read on site]

 With a startle Alice grabbed her camera faster than she could see what was coming for her, or rather, who was coming for her, curious and delighted. Accustomed to the cozy darkness of the hotel Zane squinted at the bright flash of it, hissing a bit before the strangest of sensations flooded him. In an instant, the vibrant color of his world turned black and white, greys seemingly shying away as the contrast of object and shapes left no ambiguity, and the electricity in the air fizzled into nothing. It felt like holding his breath, as for the first time in who knew how long, he simply couldn't move.

 Frozen in place Zane stared at Alice staring at him. Like an old movie star she moved in this barren land devoid of color like she belonged to it. Or rather, as Zane quickly realized, like it belonged to her.

 Huh.

 She seemed to be in a hurry, her legs ready to bolt yet stuck in place just as much as his, before surprisingly inching closer. Alice looked for something on his face, her frown digging deep lines on her forehead that he so wanted to smooth over. Pretty girl like her shouldn't frown so much. And she was so pretty...

 Alice... Wake. A muse, lovely Alan's muse that couldn't compare to Barbara's (his Barbara's) own majesty, but still had an old fashioned charm to her. Typecasted as the damsel in distress, a spiraling friend, a faltering artist... yet she cunningly stood her ground as she faced him, stuck in time.

 Zane struggled against the invisible restrains without being able to move a muscle. Against her wide gaze, the feeling was exhilarating.

 "It appears you've caught me, dear..." He tried to say, jaw slack and tongue dead, yet the woman in front of him appeared to catch his meaning as she squinted. He wanted to smile, curious, oh so curious about this ability of her. "What will you do to me now?"

 Maybe she heard him. Maybe not. He couldn't tell with the way she refused to dignify him with an answer. Instead, Alice only hesitated a second before raising her hand to touch his face. If Zane could have the ability to do anything he would've gasped, if only for the cinematic feel of the scene. Her touch, cold, on his cheek, on his chin, her grasp cautious yet firm as she maneuvered his face to examine him.

 "Why... why do you look like him? Why do you look like Alan?" She asked, beginning of a cold anger that he guessed didn't see the light of day too often.

 Would it be so hard to believe that maybe Alan was the one who looked like him? A character played by him and brought to life? He wondered for a second before his thoughts crumbled again, against the feeling of touch, and the ache of restrain.

 Is this what it meant to be captured in a still picture? Devoid of color, devoid of context, the derivative memory of a derivative man. Put in a shoebox to be forgotten, to be kept forever in stasis. To be a picture was a cruel existence, and he wanted to shiver, oh, he wanted to shake in fear for the camera to capture his trembling lips and wide eyes as her touch lingered on his skin...

 It would certainly make a pretty scene. His thoughts wondered wild as his body couldn't, thinking of angles and aspect ratios and wistfully wishing for the contact to run deeper. For that snapshot to capture something illicit, for the muse to take full advantage of the medium.

 Alice wasn't strong enough to keep him trapped for a long time, though, he was sure of that, and the fact that she probably knew as well. Despite her control she nervously glanced at the world around her, and he almost wanted to fake his stillness to keep her around when it was over, just to see what she would do. Instead, when she cupped his face in her hands Zane tried to close his eyes, succeeding this time.

 It had been a while since he's been touched like that... A gesture with a character in mind, would it be so terrible for an actor to enjoy it instead?

 Taking a deep breath, Zane could almost smell and feel the blinding whiteness of a blizzard, drops of the blackest ink falling down through it. Was it ink? Was it blood? The monochromatic nature of the medium left it ambiguous. Was he resting? Was he dying? You couldn't know with a picture.

 When he opened his eyes, Alice was gone, and the drained color slowly arose again like an arctic spring. He sighed, a bit disappointed.

 Oh well.

 Zane could only hope to find her again in the twisting corridors of the hotel.

 In the ever so dark forest.

 At the bottom of the ocean itself.

 For now, all he could do was to fix himself a drink in preparation, awaiting excitedly for his opportunity to capture her living picture, to direct her movement with acute precision and to see her face in beautiful technicolor.

About five years ago, I made a satire website for a class. It sucked and I failed the class. A year later, I published Alan Wake fan fiction on it, and forgot about it until I randomly found it earlier tonight.
