for some reason i can't explain i know saint peter won't call my name
nothing that lives, lives forever - an immortal soldier!alton more au
Tumblr media
(1.1k of snippets from my old guard(ish) au where alton more is old, too old, and has been living and fighting far longer than anyone should. full description/other thoughts at the bottom. tw: blood, violence, mentions of death)
Alton clicked the lighter closed, running a thumb over the silver case. The night was warm, sticky in a way that he never could get used to. He sucked in a breath from the cheap cigarette, letting his head fall back against the rough side of the barracks.
It was quiet. Typically, there would be no end to the commotion coming from the small building, one of many that littered Camp Toccoa. The wall of sound was ever-present, no matter if it was shouting or laughing or snoring. But whatever the cause, there was always noise. 
No matter if it was a blanket of noise he knew well, unchanging except for the language and the scenery. Soldiers are soldiers, and some things are a constant. It could almost be comforting, if it didn’t also mean that the need for soldiers was a constant as well.
However, tonight was a Saturday, and it was one of the few weekends that Sobel had allowed Easy the use of their weekend passes. Almost every man in the company had jumped at the chance to get off base, to travel home if they could and spend time with loved ones. The ones with farther-flung hometowns had spirited off to Atlanta, happy to spend their time drinking and dancing and fucking instead of slogging through another run, three miles up, three miles down.
Normally, Alton would have joined them in their carousing - it was easier to pass the time with the effortless camaraderie built during a training camp than bored and alone. 
But today had been a bad day. The sound of swords and the shift of sand beneath his feet followed him out of his nightmares, the humid summer of Georgia morphing itself into the baking, dry heat of the desert. 
His shouts must have been real, because when a hand came to shake him out of his dream, the first face he saw was not that of a grouchy NCO, but of a blood-caked Saracen, eyes alight with righteous fury. 
Alton didn’t think. He had grabbed the knife from under his pillow, an old thing that had been sharpened more times than he could begin to count, and was on the man in less than a breath, pressing the blade into the side of his neck. The familiar thrum of blood beat against his fingertips, the grit of sand scratched his gums. He knew what he had to do, had done it a thousand times, a thousand thousand times, what was a little more bloodshed spilled across his feet-
Alton had blinked, and came to himself in a rush.
Instead of an unnamed Saracen, the ashen face of Johnny Martin stared up at him, eyes wide behind the knife.
Alton drew back his hand, retreating almost as quick as he had lunged earlier. He mumbled a quick curse and apology as he stepped out of arm’s reach from the man. It wasn’t until Martin’s eyes widened even farther that Alton realized his tongue was slipping out Arabic of all things.
Usually, Alton was better about remembering himself, who he was almost as important as where he was. But for whatever reason, his demons had decided to catch up with him that night.
After a quick smile and some quip about the Krauts in his dreams, he managed to wave an only-slightly-mollified Martin off. The shorter man apparently hadn’t forgotten it though, if his watchful eyes during chow that morning were anything to go by.
Alton was just glad that no one else was awake to see it, at least. That was the last thing he needed.
And so, instead of joining in on a weekend of broads and booze, Alton found himself waving away the invitation by an eager Smokey and bemused Alley. When the horde made their way out of the barracks, fantasizing in bawdy terms about their planned misadventures, he felt like he could breathe easy.
Fucking finally.
~~
Alton took another drag from the cigarette. He watched the smoke curl, up and up until it faded into nothing amongst the darkening sky.
The lighter was a welcome weight in his hand, grounding him to this time, this life.
The design was worn by now, details barely visible after a half century of worrying. It still managed to amaze him, sometimes, what people could do with the smallest of canvases. Alton didn’t feel the same wonder however, wasn’t as mesmerized by the beauty man could create as he once was.
But in the quiet moments, he could still appreciate the time some French craftsman took to transform a hunk of metal into a small token carried around by a dead man.
Luz had spied the lighter one weekend, and laughed at him for using something so old-fashioned. Alton just shrugged, not caring to admit that he was still getting used to having a light at his fingertips. It wasn’t all that long ago when he was still lighting a pipe with a flintlock pistol, and not so long before that when he would carry around a flint and steel.
Time was passing all the more quickly these days, technologies changing and advancing, and everyone was obsessed with needing things to be quicker, cheaper, simpler. Alton scoffed. He could hardly find it in him to care.
He glanced down at the lighter in his hand, shifting it back and forth in a practiced motion and watched as the light skittered across the sides. 
It had shown flowers, once. A veritable garden of carnations, daffodils, and lilies of the valley, with leaves spilling across the front panel onto the back. They represent good fortune, he was told. Good fortune, luck, and hope. 
When the merchant described it to him, eyes ablaze with a passion known only to those with wares to sell, Alton didn’t try to hide the snort that escaped his throat. 
Fortune and Luck had abandoned him long ago, and hadn’t returned since waking up in a battlefield abandoned by all but the dead, sword in his chest and blood in his mouth. 
And what the fuck was Alton supposed to do with hope?
It was the quote on the back that had caught his eye, all those years ago in a street market in Reims. The beveled edges had faded with time, the familiar letters Alton traced were more memory by now than any physical mark. Une vie honorable est une vie éternelle.
An honorable life is an eternal life.
Alton couldn’t help but stare at the message, both then and now. He hated that goddamn word. Immortal. Unending. Eternal. 
They were such flowery words, used by people who craved what they couldn’t have, what they shouldn’t. The romanticized idea of the everlasting, the fountain of youth, the gift of life! Alton was sick of it.
This wasn’t life. He was a fucking dead man walking. And he sure as hell didn’t do anything honorable to deserve it.
Tumblr media
months ago, while thinking about the absolute insanity of the almost...cavalier? attitude we see alton more have over the course of the series, an idea hit my brain: what if there was a reason nothing seemed to phase him - not panzers, not being a breath away from a car wreck, not bastogne, not speirs? what if this wasn't his first war? that thought spiraled me into a minor insanity that is this: my immortal soldier!alton more au, loosely inspired by the movie the old guard (2020). the idea is that, once upon a time, there was a soldier in a land many centuries ago. one day, he died in battle. and then, he woke up. and then he died. and then he woke up. over, and over. drawn to countless battles, conflicts, and wars, each one etching itself into the core of his soul. a never-ending cycle...until one sweltering summer, where he found himself at a training camp at the foot of a mountain. anyways. at some point, i plan on writing this as a full story, but that is admittedly a long ways away. however, in celebration of alton more's birthday today, i wanted to post my favorite scene that i've written for this au! it's set sometime at the beginning of the story, in the early days of camp toccoa. mostly, it's just a character study of this version of alton more. hope you enjoyed! and of course - happy birthday alton more!

closed starter for @fleetsummers
location: kitchens
Nicki had been sitting outside of the clinic for a few hours now. There was too much talking inside and she caught whiff of something that made her want to heave the contents of her stomach. All she had to protect her from the winds was the blanket she borrowed and at first, she thought she’d be fine. She’d acclimate to the temperature eventually. However the longer she sat the colder she felt and the thought of going back into the clinic was not ideal. Not that there really was anything in there that could warm her up more. No, she needed something. Perhaps some warm soup from the kitchens. Or tea. Anything hot at this point. Good thing the community center wasn’t far from the clinic.
It took her a bit but she wandered into the kitchen. She had a mission - find something warm, find a chair and sit down to slowly sip it down. Slow was the keyword. This was probably the slowest she was going to be for a while. She could already hear Ike’s chiding words about moving too fast and aggravating her ribs more than they already were. Her hand pressed against the door and she swung it open, stumbling to a stop when she saw Fleet. “Mi estrellita,” she said, forcing a smile on her face as she took another step. “Please be my absolute hero and say that there is some soup or something warm in here that I can have.”

I'm curious on why do you think Daniel would hate Armand when he recovers his memory... I thought he would resent him or be ashamed of being in love with the guy who tortured him not too long ago (He could maybe even prescribe himself as having Stockholm Syndrome).
I also can't wait to see all the relationships in Dubai in S3, the angst omg
Hi!
So I don't think Daniel is going to recover all of his memories before the start of Season 3. I think he's just going to remember one more thing by the end of the season via one memory, which will reveal that he and Armand -- at some unknown point -- had sex and said "I love you" to each other.
And that is all Daniel is going to remember of his and Armand's relationship -- that they had sex at some point in time and there was an "I love you" exchange (likely during it) and that's it.
And that little bit Daniel remembers is in no way going to tell the whole story of everything. And that is going to be the key as to how and why he'll react the way I think he will.
Because there is no way, IMO, that Daniel would be happy to learn he and Armand were involved with each other like that with only that little bit of info about it all. Especially not after how Daniel has been reacting to just the whole Rashid deception.
Because after learning that Armand might have very well screwed with his mind not just for days, but for who knows how long? And doing so to hide that something like that happened? I think Daniel is going to view it all as Armand lying to him in a HUGE way. No matter what Armand's excuse for it might be.
And now also given the fact that Daniel knows Armand has messed with Louis' mind in the same way too, I don't think that is going to help Armand in any case he might plead about why he did it in Daniel's eyes either. I really do think Daniel going to see it -- at first -- as nothing but manipulation on Armand's part at first. And, as Eric himself said, Daniel doesn't like being bullied.
Now, I'm not saying that Daniel will only see it that way from here on out. But if Season 2 ends with a reveal that they had sex and said "I love you" to each other in the past at some unknown point (and I still think that reveal will be coming in episode 2x08), the first half of Season 3 is going to have Daniel super angry about that, along with some shame too as well of course, I'm sure. Especially because he's not going to have the full context of it all.
But it'll probably take until the middle of Season 3 before Daniel is even willing to hear Armand fully out about it I bet.
And honestly, I think Armand is going to have to deal with a lot of anger coming at him during the first half of Season 3, and not just from Daniel. I fully expect Lestat to be there and, since we know we're getting Lestat's backstory in Season 3 then, if you know that story from The Vampire Lestat, Armand doesn't exactly cover himself in glory during the events there either. Heck, Louis already alluded to the hands thing with Nicki in this very episode.
So yeah, Daniel won't be the only one angry at Armand for a time at the start of Season 3 IMO, but I do think he will be. And what Daniel will very likely hear wrt Lestat's backstory isn't going to help things in that regard either I bet, coupled with the fact that his memory of their time together as lovers will only be remembering one fleeting moment and that's all.
Daniel won't yet have his full memory of everything regarding him and Armand together going into Season 3; not for a (long) while IMO. And so missing a lot of context is going to inform Daniel's first and immediate reaction to learning it, IMO.

How do u think Agatha felt everyday when she would look at Nicky and see Rio’s brown eyes and brown hair and toothy smile staring back at her. Agatha who struggles so intensely with vulnerability looking at her little boy everyday and seeing the love of her life reflected in every movement. Watching Nicky as others flock to him whether because of his mischief or because of the sense of wonder he instills with his songs. The same way the coven was so immediately entranced by rio and also repelled. Watching him craft a song so beautiful and innocent and yet so intricately tied to the death of so many. What do u think she felt when every day she watched as people were lulled into a trap of her creation by nothing but his small face and easy words. How many times do u think Rio and Agatha did that same dance before. How do u think she felt day and night surrounded by the greenest trees and the prettiest flowers and the strongest rivers and in the center of it all Nicky. Nicky who is so full of life and yet can’t survive without being surrounded by Death in every sense of the word. How he acquiesces to Agatha so easily despite not understanding why they have to kill witches. Because his mama is asking him to and that’s enough for him just like it always was for Rio. How everyday she looks at him and remembers that he’s going to die, that’s he’s going to leave her soon, always too soon. How she can never have anything more but fleeting moments with the ones that she loves.
And when he dies, the one time Agatha heeds his wishes of tomorrow, encapsulating so fully the cycle of life and death he is once again everything Agatha is not but instead everything Rio is. And just like his mother he’s unable to escape his fate. His true calling which was never with her just like Rio’s duties. How despite how fully they love her and she loves them it’s still not enough.
And after, every time she uses her siphon powers on the fake road sandwiched between Nicky’s song and Rio’s final embrace who do u think she thinks of first. Who do u think hurts more to think about. Who do u think she feels more guilt over. Because while she very loudly blames Rio it’s ultimately a facade in which to hide her own feelings. The guilt of falling in love in the first place, the shame of not being enough, the grief over the way she can never have what she truly wants. How she will never have Nicky again but Rio will never leave her side. How she refuses Rio so intensely and yet Nicky is with Rio always.
And how do u think she feels now, whenever she looks at Rio and all she sees is Nicky’s brown eyes and brown hair and toothy smile staring back at her.

Kissing Booth!!
where Nicki stops by for a hug and gets a therapy session as well @fleetsummers
Nicki Torres
"Okay, I couldn't stay away," she said as she walked in and found Fleet. "Necesito un abrazo de mi estrellita."
fleet summers
"Ohh!" Fleet popped up from behind the booth, scuttling out to hug Nicki before she even reached anywhere near the stool. "Si claro, mi morena. But you know you didn't need to wait for a booth for that." He kept his arms around her, guiding her towards the seat. "How goes the recovery?"
Nicki Torres
"I know I didn't but I felt an overwhelming urge to get one right this second." She hugged him back and kept her arm around him as he guided her inside. "Alright. Still a little sore and stiff but I'm taking it easy, as promised. No unnecessary trips or reckless acts of stupidity. What about you? How are you?"
fleet summers
He helped get her situated and stayed standing next to Nicki's stool, both arms looped around her. "It's okay," Fleet said, after a moment. "I'm not gonna scold you about whatever it is people scold you about. Not that they're wrong--" he smiled, bumping her nose with his own, "--they do it out of love, but they've got that covered. You and me can just noodle along our own stuff."
Nicki Torres
Nicki laughed softly as she held onto him. Her fingers were tracing up and down his spine. "Well, I appreciate that. I will gladly noodle along with you." She hummed a little bit. "You didn't answer my question, silly."
fleet summers
"I'm doing all right. People are ... upset about various things, a lot. Not at me, I mean in general about their own things, but in a gross kind of way that's comforting?" Fleet huffed a little breath, half-exasperated with himself, half-relieved. "It makes me feel less like I'm trying to get attention when I'm upset."
Nicki Torres
Nicki nodded along as she reached out with her foot to try and grab the other chair and bring it closer so he could sit with her. "Well, I'm glad. I know things have been pretty bleak lately. But this whole thing....it's nice." She had motioned to the booth around them but it was more than just that. "It's about time something good happened around town. Was this whole thing your idea? It has your flair written all over it."
fleet summers
Fleet gave a shushing hiss when Nicki tried to hook the other chair, moving it himself and then sitting down. "Flair? That's a very flattering way to put it." He laughed, giving a slight shrug. "Guilty as charged. I know you're not supposed to say, but since I'm one of the organizing Leprechauns, after all--" Fleet elbowed her slightly, "--how are you feeling about your recipient?"
Nicki Torres
Nicki couldn't help but laugh at the sound he made when he shushed her. She wasn't sure if he was trying to stop her because she was straining to pull the chair around or for some other reason. She figured it was the latter. Upon his question she laughed and shrugged. "It's gonna be....amusing, let's put it that way. I was kinda hoping for someone else but it's gonna be fun and a little challenging. What about you? You got anyone good?"
fleet summers
"Whoa whoa whoa, you can't just say you were hoping for somebody else and not tell me who!" Fleet gave Nicki's knee the lightest of slaps. "I'm trying to keep you from over-exerting yourself and here you want to make me twist myself into conniptions guessing at who you would've preferred to get. Tell me all about it and--" Fleet put on a light, lilting Irish accent, "--sure I'll see what magic I can do, slainte."
Nicki Torres
"Oh, no," she laughed and shook her head, "that's cheating! I can't get special favors because I have an in with one of the glorious little leprechauns on the leprechaun committee! And besides, I'm curious to see who has him and what they get for him. And before you ask, no, it's not Ares. I actually have something special for him already just because. But no, it's probably better I keep who I have so that I can have time to come up with something for other, nameless person."
fleet summers
"I wouldn't have guessed Ares! Give me some credit for having more drama than sense." Fleet pouted extravagantly when Nicki declined to say who she'd hoped to get, tapping his bottom lip for a moment and then guessing, "David? Isaac? Orion? Lucien? Oh, there's no point, you know everyone so the possibilities are endless. Sigh." He wriggled on his stool, saying, "I don't know mine that well but I'm pleased! Doing something nice for them won't be any trouble at all."
Nicki Torres
Nicki gave Fleet a cute, adoring look as she cupped his face in her hand. "God, your little pout is so hard to say no to. You're killing me, mi estrellita." None of the names he guessed were correct, although David's name popped up and she laughed. "Wait, David got roped into this? Now that's hilarious. Who put his name in? Was it Mayra? Or Val? I bet it was Mayra." Fleet seemed so excited for his prospect and considering it was someone he didn't know well, she had money it was on one of the new arrivals. "Please don't tell me you got Mike." Because of course that was her first thought.
fleet summers
"It wasn't Mayra, I can tell you that much." Fleet snickered, shaking his head as he offered a tiny bit more information: "It was mostly us Leprechauns who tossed in the unlikeliest of participants. We all have faces that are hard to say no to." Fleet gave her his biggest, most winsome eyes, but he huffed derisively when Nicki asked if Mike was his recipient. "Not on your life," he said, a curl of disgust to his lip. "I would cut my own brake line if he was in the path of my car. Theoretically." The thought of Mike made his face tighten in anger for a moment, at the thought of what that man had put Zack through, but Fleet set that aside. 
Nicki Torres
"You three are amazing. Oh, I can't wait to find out who has David and Zack and who they have. It's gonna be amazing!" She saw his pout and groaned a little bit. God, he was gonna rip it out of her, wasn't he? Probably. And Fleet would be the most successful person to do that, too. Maybe she should tell him. "Oh good. I hope whoever has him gives him a steaming pile of dog shit. Preferably from Rex." Nicki knew this was supposed to be good will but Mike was a different story. "You really want to know who I was hoping for, don't you?"
fleet summers
The praise did help to turn the anger biting at the edges of Fleet's mood back sweet again, and he flushed a bit under it, reaching to clasp Nicki's hand before dancing his fingers up her forearm, tracing little wheedling circles against her skin. "I really do wanna know," he said. "Believe me -- it can only make the situation better if I know about it. I wasn't kidding about having a some of that shamrock magic in me. Or is it rainbow magic? Either one works."
Nicki Torres
Nicki laughed and groaned a little as he really, and I mean really laid on the charm for her. It was no wonder he had won the heart of one Zack Astor. "Okay, okay, but don't overexert yourself by switching things around for me, okay? I know you three put in a lot of hard work to organize this whole thing, sooooo....." She scrunched the side of her face a bit as she tried to gauge his reaction. "I was hoping for Zack."
fleet summers
That did take Fleet aback a little, and it probably showed in the immediate tilt of his head, the pucker between his eyebrows. "Zack," he said. "But why? I mean, you already talked to him and it didn't go well. I don't know that an artificially-created situation where you were randomly slated to do something nice for him would improve things any, Nicki."
Nicki Torres
"Yeah, I know. Which is why it's probably best I didn't." She had a feeling that was going to be his reaction. "Because I'm bad at apologies? Or talking anything out, really. And I feel bad, y'know? I've been an ass and you were right and I've been doing some reflecting and....well...." she shrugged, "I think in the rehab game it's called amends or something. I thought it could be a good way to do that."
fleet summers
Fleet pursed his mouth up to one side as Nicki explained, nodding when she reached the end of her train of thought. "I see what you're saying," he said, "but I don't think that's the most effective way to make amends, not with Zack. He's pretty big on people making their own choices, of their own volition, with their own words. Authenticity goes a long, long way with him -- even authenticity that's not necessarily pretty." He drooped a little bit, sighing for real and not in the actual word now. "I wish I hadn't pushed. I made things worse."
Nicki Torres
Nicki breathed out a long, heavy breath through her nose and her shoulders slumped a little. But she nodded. "You didn't make anything worse. That's all on me, okay? You were trying to help out tu amor and I fumbled. So please, don't blame yourself, okay? I'll just....." her voice trailed off as she tried to think of what to say and she ended up shaking her head, "....I don't know. Figure something out. Maybe write something out and just read it. That could work....?"
fleet summers
"I don't know either. But it's okay if you take some time to figure it out, Nicki. I'm..." Fleet held on to her arm more consciously, as if he thought Nicki might skitter off at his next turn of conversation. "Don't take this the wrong way but -- for somebody who makes a lot of show about being devil-may-care about everyone's opinions, you're actually pretty bothered when people are upset with you, huh?"
Nicki Torres
See, Nicki felt like she didn't have time but she was gonna take Fleet's word on that. He knew Zack a bit better than her, after all. She was about ready to change the subject when she noticed how Fleet was grabbing her arm and if that wasn't a red flag enough, his preface sure as hell was. Uh oh. At first she thought about scoffing and adamantly denying that was the case but this was Fleet and damn if he wasn't observant as hell. She blew out the air from her lungs and made a face. "Yeah....but only people I care about. I don't like letting them down."
fleet summers
"Okay." Fleet switched to patting her arm instead, since Nicki had taken that well, all things considered. "It's fine to feel that way. I feel that way. Probably most people in town do." He ducked his head, smiling, to catch Nicki's eye. "It's not just you. It's nothing to be ashamed of, being like the rest of us."
Nicki Torres
Her face felt a little flushed. Whether it was embarrassment or shame or awkwardness that a little wall she had put up had  been breached, she wasn't quite sure. And his little pat she was sure was well meant but she felt a little vulnerable. Her eyes caught his face as he moved into her line of sight. Was she really that transparent? "I'm used to being closed off and calloused," she explained as she sat back up in her chair, "not seen, if that makes sense."
fleet summers
Fleet was quiet for a minute, letting that sit between them as he thought about it. "Do you want to stay that way?" he asked, once he'd felt it out. "Closed off, calloused, without anybody seeing who you really are. You're in Redwood now, with people who care about you. Even the ones who don't love you care about you, as a person, as part of our little group of survivors." Fleet stroked down to Nicki's hand, her long fingers, each one of them in turn. "What's the worst that could happen, if people who care about you see you for who you are?"
Nicki Torres
Nicki breathed out heavily. She was conflicted on how to answer that, honestly. "I wish the answer was that simple, mi estrellita," she sighed as she ran her free hand down her face. "Sometimes I think it's better to stay that way because there's never a guarantee that I'm coming back from a raid. The less people see the real me, the less they have to miss in case I don't come back. Dying is the easy part. Living is hard." Nicki offered a half smile at Fleet, wondering if the musical genius would catch the little reference she threw in there. "I love people. I love caring about people and I love being loved in return, but with everything out there....loss is easier when you aren't too invested."
fleet summers
Fleet returned the little twitch of a smile, saying, "I hope you're not telling me you've got fantasies of being a martyr, Nicki. Though you'd look great in one of those powdered periwigs and a frockcoat." There was something nagging him about what Nicki was saying, and it wasn't wholly the sentiment in itself -- though Fleet wasn't excited about that, either. He ran through her statement in his head again, then picked out a word: "It's about the raids? The raiding, that's what makes you think this way?" The thought was distressing and Fleet pressed a little more, asking, "Does Ares feel that way, too? Do Orion and Cat and Isaac?"
Nicki Torres
Nicki laughed softly. Truly. Genuinely. There was no hollowness or dullness in the song. "Wouldn't I, though? I could see it now, Saint Nicki - patron saint of sex. That is non-negotiable." A potential guide away from dismal, depressing talk but it didn't stick. "I mean, it's not just the raids, but they're the biggest risk. I love raiding. I love the thrill of it, but contrary to everyone's opinions, I'm very well aware that I'm not immortal. I'm happy to go raiding. Even better knowing I'm doing something to help everyone here in Redwood. We're taking the risks so no one else has to. It's a dangerous job and someone has to do it. Why not an adrenaline junkie with a need for speed?" There was more to it than that, obviously, but that was the general gist of it. "Well, I don't know about Cat. I'm still feeling her out. But the rest of us? We know there's a chance we're not coming back every time we go out there. But...honestly, no, I think I might be the only one with this sentiment. I've kind of always had that train of thought, even in the before times. I really only had one person I was super close with back when the world had billions of people and I'm lucky that she's here.....Mayra, in case you were wondering."
fleet summers
Fleet laughed along -- with a touch of incredulousness at Nicki's audacious remark, naming herself the saint of sex to the person who'd cheated on his boyfriend with her. It wasn't something Fleet would've said, but he didn't dwell on it; Nicki existed primarily in Nickiworld, a state of peculiar innocence that was impermeable to other people's complexities until they became impossible to ignore. See: Zack. 
She explained about the raiders and their dynamic, and Fleet honestly didn't know enough about how they worked to say otherwise, so he nodded and accepted the way Nicki described it. He did laugh again when she clarified that she was besties with Mayra, saying, "Oh, I know. I've been in town more than three minutes." Fleet nudged against her. "That's good, though, that's amazing. That the both of you ended up together and able to be there for each other when you need that kind of super duper close unquestioning friendship. I'm glad for you." That did bring up a new thought, though, and Fleet said, "Nicki, I know you love people, and you love caring about people, you've got a huge heart, anyone can see that. But I'm curious. How do you show you care about people?" He lifted a finger and stipulated, "--and your answer can't be about sex, or about jumping in front of a bullet, or killing for them. No declarations of dying or killing and no--" Fleet took a breath, "--fucking. Tell me what else." He drew his fingertips feather-light against the pretty curve of her cheek. "Tell me how you see it."
Nicki Torres
Nicki absorbed his nudge, letting it roll through her and keeping herself balanced in her chair. Things were feeling lighter, that was for sure. Which was good! Nicki had come into the booth looking for a hug and some friendly gossip with one of her favorite people. This definitely wasn't what she was planning on, even if this was maybe more therapeutic than she thought it would be. Although, for a minute, she did freeze for just a minute. The answer to his question was simple - at least, at first. Until he put in his restrictions and her mind went blank. How on Earth was she going to answer that? Her lower lip pushed out into a pout as she fumbled through her memories and thoughts to try and come up with an answer to his question. "I......I don't know," she muttered, her shoulders rising and falling in a shrug as she tried to think of something. "I guess....I like doing nice things for people? Like those clothes I found for you at the Ranch or the crystals I brought back for Mayra....oh, and the knife I asked Alden to make for Ares....which, don't tell Ares that. I want it to be a surprise." His touch tickled her skin but even that didn't really help her think. Seriously, how did she not have a good, solid answer that didn't sound pathetic to this?!
fleet summers
Nicki's list got a pleased sound out of Fleet, and he hopped upright a bit to say, "Oh! Orion brought back my bag of shirts! It was still all tied up neatly the way I'd left it, and he said that made him think that it was something treasured and worth retrieving. Which is completely right, of course. He's so neat." Which would sound like faint praise were it about anybody else, but Orion was ... neat. 
Fleet could see that Nicki was troubled, though, and he didn't really want to press her past the point of this stimulating any further contemplation on her part -- god knew, all of the things they'd been talking about would be overwhelming for anybody -- so instead he pressed a kiss to each of her cheeks, then cupped her face in his hands. "Don't approach Zack just yet," Fleet said, firmly. "Think on it. Think about what he might be feeling. And the answer is more complicated than 'angry with Nicki'. If you can't figure out anything aside from that, then leave it where it lies." He tapped a thumb against her chin. "Ares is gonna lose his mind that you commissioned something from Alden for him. That's so thoughtful of you."
Nicki Torres
"He did?!" She asked, both excited and relieved that Orion had brought those back for him. If they brought back that, she wondered what else they brought back. "That reminds me, I wonder if they found that day calendar thing we were working on. I know the whole point of why we were making it is long gone, but I thought it would still be something nice to finish and give to Ares in case he's laid up a bit longer and I'm needed back out there, helping out and everything." Probably not. She didn't remember where she had left it and it was possible it was destroyed or lost forever. Maybe she could find another day calendar and start all over again.
Nicki's eyes followed Fleet as he stood and she scrunched her face in a bit of shock and confusion as he kissed her cheeks. Not because of the soft affection because that was pretty on par for Fleet and she even felt a slight heat in her cheeks from it. Which she was sure he felt when he held her face in his hands. She then realized what he was doing - giving her advice. Really solid, sound, needed advice because this whole thing with Zack was - well, she had no idea how to navigate it at all and as easy as it would be to just walk away and suffer the consequences of her actions, she did want to try and make things right. Especially to the man who had now saved her life twice. "Alright, I'll stand down." She had no idea how she was going to figure out the complexity of Zack Astor without getting verbal hints from the man himself but she could figure it out, right? If she could replace a carburetor in Persephone, she could totally do this. She smiled and laughed a little as she caught Fleet's hands and held them. "I'm hoping he likes it. It's not exactly his dream knife but I think it's pretty close. I can't wait to give it to him, honestly."
fleet summers
"No, I think that calendar's probably good and gone, unfortunately. But that's okay." Fleet spun a lock of Nicki's hair around his finger and then let it go, to sproing into a curl. "You've got a million more nice things to say to Ares in your head to make up for it." 
A wash of relief went through Fleet when Nicki promised she wouldn't push things with Zack and he resisted saying anything further on the subject -- which was hard, because his instinct was to help and to talk it out and to offer more and more ways to look at the situation, but his instinct had only made it more sticky. His instinct had caused the whole problem, in fact. The remorse was present but Fleet was already working on making his own amends to his boyfriend, so he wasn't dwelling on it. "Thank you," Fleet said, before Nicki caught his hands in her own and he smiled brightly at her excitement about her present for Ares. "I'm glad you two are doing well," he said, earnestly. "I love you both so much. I know whatever goes on with you raiders stays with you raiders, so it's good you have each other."
Nicki Torres
Nicki's lower lip pouted out. "Damn, I had some really good messages written down that I was rather proud of." It had also been just fun to write down the dirty little messages and imagining Ares' face when he read some of them. But, unfortunately, that was life. She would just have to show him what she was writing down in person. That, she was sure, would be something Ares would look forward to.
Things really were good between Ares and her. Nicki loved it. Honestly she never thought she could feel this way about anyone but fuck, was she glad she was absolutely wrong. "We love you too," she said before bringing both of his hands up and kissing the backs of each one. "And we both are lucky to have you to brighten our days when we're here in town." Honest to God's truth. She gave his hands a squeeze and stood up, albeit slowly and stiffly. She had probably sat a bit too long in that chair. "I probably shouldn't hog you too much longer. I'm sure you're gonna have a line of people wanting your attention. One more hug and/or kiss for he road?"
fleet summers
"Mmmm, maybe. Val and Beth are more to some people's tastes." Fleet laughed, though, no malice in the comment, adding, "--one of us is sure to appeal to somebody if the other two don't!" Nicki was moving a little stiffly but mostly all right as she stood, so Fleet didn't move to help her, just watching until he was certain she was doing okay. "You take care. And good luck with your Pot of Gold task." He gave her both a hug and a kiss, to the middle of her lips, pressed close-mouthed and sweet the way children did it. 
Nicki Torres
Nicki hummed happily and hugged him back before accepting the little kiss from him. "You take care too, mi estrellita. And don't be a stranger." She gave him a wink before kissing his cheek and heading towards the library to check on Ares.

"Dynastic alliances were thus as much in the mind of the future King Edward VII as they were in that of the Kaiser, although Wilhelm's matchmaking ambitions had been part of a grandiose plan for the creation of a powerful new Zollverein - a continental alliance of Germany, Russia and France. Steering Alix of Hesse in the direction of Nicholas of Russia had been one way of shoring this up. Perhaps, in the wilder reaches of his vivid imagination, Wilhelm nursed visions of being another Frederick the Great, the Prussian monarch who had been instrumental in brokering the marriage of his German relative Sophie van Anhalt-Zerbst-Dornburg, and with it her rise on the Russian throne as Catherine the Great. The new Tsaritsa Alexandra would, however, never demonstrate any of Catherine's breadth of vision and energy as Empress. If anything, she inherited the prosaic, domestic Victorian values of her mother Alice - of example, duty, morality and a sense of service. But in one thing at least Alexandra would later demonstrate an instinct that she shared with her cousin Wilhelm: an entrenched belief in absolutist autocratic power. Wilhelm's mother, the Dowager Empress Victoria, had certainly hoped that her niece Alexandra's succession to the Russian throne in November 1894, on the sudden death of Alexander III, might foster improved relations between Russia and Germany. In the years up to 1908 Nicholas and Wilhelm made frequent visits to each other for army manoeuvres, reviews of the fleet or simply to enjoy the shooting at their respective hunting lodges in Prussia and the Russian imperial game reserves in Poland. They had even gone yachting together - the Romanovs on the imperial yacht, the Standart, the Kaiser on the Hohenzollern - at Kiel and around the Finnish skerries. But far too often the prickly, meddlesome Kaiser had succeeded in upsetting those around him. Despite this, in his letters to Nicky, Willy repeatedly assured him of his love and devotion; after all they shared the same fundamental belief in their divine right as sovereigns. "We, Christian Kings and Emperors have one holy duty imposed on us by Heaven,” he told Nicky. ‘"That is to uphold the principle “von Gottes gnaden" [by the grace of God].”

Title: Red Sky Morning
Rating: E
Word Count: 38.5k
Chapter 4/11
Characters: Louis de Pointe du Lac, Lestat de Lioncourt, Daniel Molloy, Jonah Macon, Bricktop Williams, Claudia, Madeleine Eparvier, Pandora, Gabrielle de Lioncourt, Daciana, Pierre Roget, Marius de Romanus,  Armand, Sybelle, Benji, Santiago, Eglee, Celeste, Sam, Damek, Rashid, Charlie, Jesse Reeves, Merrick Mayfair

Warnings: canon typical violence, homophobic threats & vandalism
Summary: Shrimper Louis is dredging in the bayou dough one evening, when hearing a distress call from a nearby vessel. He drops everything to assist the newest captain in the rinky dink Ragin’ Cajuns fleet, Lestat de Lioncourt. Sparks fly, but it's White Shrimp season in the Gulf states and time, like the shrimp, is gold. Bets have been made and friendly competition is high, to see who brings in the most shrimp by season's end. But lately the body count is rising almost as fast as their fishing quotas and the bayou is steeped in suspicion, ever leery of giving up her secrets. If the fleet can figure out who or what is behind the murders then no matter who wins the season, Louis and Lestat might just find the best catch of all.
