Write Like You Need It To Survive

I'm Strats and this is where you read stuff. I used to write everything but now I'm accidentally Hannigram trash. With occasional SpaceDogs because this fandom ate me. Follow my main blog at stratumgermanitivum for more Hannigram nonsense.

Will was not, at the time, taking responsibility for anything. He was tired of responsibility, tired of being dragged out of bed in the middle of the night, sweat-damp and entirely unrested from the hour or two of night terrors he’d managed. Tired of people expecting empathy and magic to be synonyms. He rambled it all while pacing a hole in Hannibal’s carefully chosen rug, circling Hannibal’s office like a trapped animal. Feeling like a trapped animal. “You cannot control the actions of other people, Will, but you can control your responses to them.”

After his breakup with Beth, Adam finally found a new job. That it was in Bucharest, across the world from everyone he knows, was both a blessing and a curse. Everything familiar was gone, he would need to rewrite his entire existence, but at least he would no longer have to deal with his awkward friendship with Beth, or the way everyone always stared at him. He had no idea he would be moving in just down the street from the headquarters of a gang that ran most of Bucharest's seedy underbelly. Nigel didn't question any of Adam's quirks, and the rules he lived his life by might be just what Adam needed to balance his life back out.

"Would you like to talk about it?” Like this, Adam was hardly going to take him up on it, but Nigel always offered anyway. Better to offer than to have Adam think Nigel was only ever after one thing. “No,” Adam huffed, kicking his pants off and tossing them into their laundry hamper with more force than clothes typically required. When he started reaching for a pair of sweatpants, Nigel placed a hand over his. “Want to not talk about it?” Adam didn’t get it, not at first. He never did. He turned his puzzled, irritated frown on Nigel. “I just said-” Nigel could practically see the idea click into place. It was fascinating, the way every inch of Adam’s face would relax when understanding settled in. Arousing. “Oh,” Adam said, shoulders easing back from their tense hunch. “You’re asking if I’d like to hurt you.”

Nigel's soulmark has always been nothing more than a collection of dots. Soulmarks, in general, are an annoyance. They've already ruined his life once. And then Adam Raki walks into his life.

  The stranger leans forward to peer intently at Nigel’s bicep. “Here, that’s Sirius. And here’s Adhara, or Epsilon Canis Majoris. Several stars have two names, one to name the star and one to designate it as part of the constellation. This one here-” His finger grazes one of the dots, an electric shock against Nigel’s skin. They both freeze. Nigel looks up to meet the stranger’s evasive gaze, and once again falls head over heels for a blue eyed, pretty little thing with a heart on their sleeve. The stranger looks up at the curve of Nigel’s jaw, shapes his lips around words that never come… And then runs.

I’ve decided as a treat to myself that if I can get the next chapter of Fuller Prep up this weekend, I can start a new one-shot (Don’t worry, I alternate writing two things at a time, so I would still be working on the next chapter of ChoicesVerse). Do you guys want to pick or should I?

[stratumgermanitivum]

You guys, I went to work on the next chapter only to realize I HAD ACCIDENTALLY SKIPPED AN ENTIRE CHAPTER, which means I WILL BE POSTING TONIGHT OMG. AND I GET TO TREAT MYSELF WITH A ONE-SHOT. WHO WANTS TO PICK ONE? I HAVE THAT PROMPTS LIST LYING AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE….

“Don’t worry...” The creature whispers, reaching out to him with damp, dripping fingers, “You’re safe from me. I’m full.”

“Safe from you,” Nigel says with a bitter laugh, “Might as well fucking indulge yourself. I’m dying anyway.”

The creature creeps forward a bit more, close enough for Nigel’s eyes to slowly adjust. A boy. A man. ----- The woman who changed him didn’t know any better. Adam tries to remember that it wasn’t her fault, even if it’s sometimes a bit more difficult to convince himself.

She’d found him in the park, with his telescope. He’d kicked it over when he struggled, he’d heard it crack even over his own sobs as her teeth sank into his neck. She hadn’t even said hello. One minute, she’d been across the park, just another woman on a walk. Then the wind had turned, blown Adam’s scent to her, and she’d lunged.
