You will not let him go, even as he kills you.

Elias had always hated being sick. His immune system, luckily, was rather good at its job, so he was never sick that often unless he did something to really upset his body. Like, for example, walk for a good while in one of the worst storms he’s seen in a while.

“Really, I don’t know how else you thought that would go.” “Like I said, Clive, I wasn’t thinking.” (timeline frisbee luke au: Luke is forced to decide whether he's actually willing to trust his 'brother'.)

Luke Triton knew what death was like. This was not death. (or: Luke takes a nasty tumble at the end of Unwound Future, but somehow ends up ten years in the past. And accidentally saves Claire’s life.)

With Steam Bison’s dedication to progress came many, many new inventions. Inventions that occasionally broke. Inventions that Luke had found himself pretty good at fixing. Unfortunately, all the machinery knowledge in the world could not prepare him for finding a whimpering robot lizard in an alleyway.

“I.. I’m making the most of my time here.” Ingo looked at him for a few moments, as if waiting for Luke to continue, and then when he got no elaboration, his face turned contemplative. “Hmm. Perhaps a battle would help?” That… wasn’t quite what Luke was expecting. “A battle?” (Or: Even with a rather critical difference between their situations, Ingo and Luke find common ground.)

“Oh?” Black Sapphire said with a wolfish grin, “And how exactly do you intend to silence me? Do tell, do tell, I’m ever curious as to what you’ll come up with.” There was a moment where the room went almost empty, so quiet you could hear a pin drop. And then Knight rushed forwards, too fast for Black Sapphire to react, and suddenly he was pinned against the wall with a rapier to his throat and Knight was dangerously close to him.
