    Summary

    When the weight of his trauma starts to wear Arthur a little too thin, John does the only thing that any disembodied spirit with one hand and one foot could do: he finds a pen. At least one of them knows when to ask for help.

    Summary

    By the ninth day, Arthur had gone from restless to bored out of his mind.

    "We have to do something new."

    “And what exactly would that be?"

    "I don’t know. But we have to do something, John. We’ve started snapping at each other like when Parker and I had to stay at a shitty motel for a case and share a bed and bathroom."

    “It’s not that bad.”

    “You yelled at me for rubbing my eye too much the other day and last night I grabbed your hand because you were tapping it too loudly.”

    “...You have a point.”
    ___

    Arthur's a little banged up, so what better to fix that than a luxurious stay at a cultist-killing castle! He has everything he could ask for, a curse-free body, clean clothes and water that hasn't been tainted with the blood of corpses! What more could you want?

    Summary

    “Indeed. You’re lucky Alia saw something in you,” Evrard comments. “I do apologize for the distrust initially. You understand.”

    “Of course, not the first time someone’s attempted to murder me,” Arthur jokes lightly, but it trails off into a cough.

    John winces internally, this was almost worse than dealing with Yorick's interjections. Arthur, be careful.

    “I’m sorry?” Evrard asks, confused.

    Arthur continues, voice dipping into humor once more, “Honestly of all the attempts it was one of the more survivable. Just dropped down a trapdoor, not even gutted or shot. Hell, I’ve gotten closer to getting the job done than you did.”

     

    For fucks sake.

    Summary

    Shortly after his return to New York, Arthur Lester is found comatose and blind in an alleyway with no memory nor idea towards what put him there. That's what he says anyway, since he has some idea considering the amount of enemies he's made in the past year. It would be a lot easier if most of it wasn't faded in strange obscurity when he tries to remember; if he hadn't gone through it all completely alone.

    And then he starts seeing the same faceless stranger in his dreams.

    Summary

    The frustrated ranting trails off, and in a slightly weaker, more hesitant voice, he asks, “…could you… project yourself? For a bit?”

    “Wh-what?”

    John doesn’t quite mean for it to come out that audibly startled, almost hurt, but he can’t quite manage to catch himself before it slips out. He just can’t understand the request, unless—is Arthur trying to kick him out of their body? Does he want space that desperately, that he—

    “It’s, ah… well, you know how it drains me,” Arthur continues, probably oblivious to John’s thoughts. “I think I could… use that, right now. To—burn off some of this restless energy.”
