    -

    Today, and eventually, tomorrow.

    Summary

    Kalina was tired of being a shadow. Operation after operation failed because she couldn't get involved directly. She had eyes and ears.

    What she needed were hands.

    And there was a particular pair of hands she had in mind. A child's pair of green hands, already dexterous despite his young age. Those hands were adept at teasing blocks from behind couch cushions and scrawling the correct answers on every assignment, but they grasp at other hands far too often.

    He'd require testing. Refinement. But she'd spent so long as just whispers in ears, she could sink a few years into training her hands. She'd hedged enough bets. It was time for an investment.

    A Kalina kidnaps/trains Riz AU. Ft. newsies, conspiracies, violence, ACAB, manipulation, grief, and a metric ton of crime.

    Summary

    This room is different from the rest of the Halls of the Corrodi Primarch; it is obvious from a single glance. With a delicate elegance that looks so alien in the iron-wrought wasteland of Zern, so senselessly pretty in a way that betrays the solidity of her council, entering it feels as though stepping into another world — neither Zern nor Zood, nor even Gath; someplace else entirely, a world of her own.

    A fairytale, perhaps — she remembers those from long ago, stories of whimsy, filled with hope. A clockwork, mechanical fairytale; though the details elude her, the story of the sleeping princess surfaces into the shallows of Ludmila's memories.

    There, the centrepiece of the room. A sight Ludmila sees so very little, yet one that is etched into the whirring machinery of her mechanical mind. Firelight streaks through arched windows, refracting off polished edges. Carved from polished brass, covered with a crystalline lid, is a glass coffin.

    Laying within it, hands resting on her chest, is Marya Junková.

    (Or: Marya falls into Zern earlier than canon.)

    Summary

    Their usual sleepover night starts out normally, getting ice cream at Basrar’s with their friends, riding the Hangman back to Fabian’s house, greeting Cathilda on their way up to the bedroom.

    “Well The Ball, what shall it be? A movie? I can have Cathilda send up some snacks. Or maybe we could-”

    “We should have sex,” Riz blurts out.

    *Record scratch*
