Summary
Saga's head is still throbbing, blood dribbling down past her brow. Something rumbles, she wipes at her eye; and when she pulls her hand away, sticky between her fingers, there's something on the shore. A black net of kelp, or some poor animal, she thinks at first. Then she notices the hand sticking out of it -- and the page by said hand.

Summary
KLAASJE AMANDOU - She's standing there on the lightrail platform, her arms folded across her chest, her cigarette dangling between her fingers. Her red hair spills down to her chin, purposefully tucked behind her ear.
INLAND EMPIRE [Easy: Success] - Blood from a gaping head wound, her brains spilling out.
CONCEPTUALIZATION [Medium: Success] - The view from the intersection of a crosshair, letting out a deep breath as the line quivers.

Summary
PRECISION (HEARING) [Trivial: Success] - A choir is positioned opposite the window. Even with your head bowed, you know they are there. A boy no older than twenty three -- your age -- sings out in a long, impassioned alto, his hands clutching his chest.
LETHAL FORCE [Medium: Success] - Like his lungs are going to burst.
WHIMSY [Easy: Success] - You know the words. Sing them!

Forefinger and Thumb by swampy (HeadedMints)

Summary
He reaches desperately for the visions that flashed in his mind, for the stench of blood and the cracking in his hands. It's gone. And sitting heavy in his head where it was - even if it was only for moment - is a gaping hole. His head bows forward with the weight.
"Dandelion."
"Yes?" The bard answers, a little too fast to just be eager.

Snowfall by swampy (HeadedMints) for woodwoofits

Summary
Bigby had thought they were done with things like the Crooked Man; but the hole he left behind can't help but fill, and the shady characters doing the filling don't give him any peace of mind. Another series of bizarre murders grips Fabletown - new shadows are cast, leaving it teetering on the edge of another war.
The dark underbelly of the city rumbles, and the monsters wake from a not - so - long slumber.

Summary
That's only the smallest thing, though. It's a whole laundry list, but near the top is the fact that Snow doesn't even talk to him beyond a stray word or two. Just below that is the fact that every Fable he's come across either looks at him with righteous fear or foul pride, with sickening whiplash filling the space between. Either way, everyone seems to give him a wider berth these days.
And now he's stuck in his office filing old complaints Crane never dealt with. He purses his lips around another cigarette and lights it with a huff.

Summary
Riku reaches down into the water, and Sora knows he's scouring the sand for oysters, the sun shining warmly off his strong arms, his hair falling down in his face. He straightens his back, frowning, but when he glances over to see Sora running down to the sea he smiles.

Summary
When Sora sleeps, Riku lurks at the dark edges of his dreams, keeping quiet, invisible vigil.

Summary
"Come on, just a little further," Keira encourages, gently nudging her flut - flut to keep a steady pace. The bird beneath her lets out a little chirp, happily taking the mountain trail before them. Jak's own mount croons a similar tone behind her. Daxter groans from the same direction, and she can imagine him rolling his eyes.

Summary
After putting down the Metalhead leader and returning to Haven City, Jak falls into some new kind of normal - and the people he's known fall comfortably into place along with it.

Summary
"Can't sleep, Hendrik?" A voice softly asks behind him.
The ground is cold here in Sniflheim, and the wind blows harshly. The fire at the center of camp threatens to die out any second, fighting for its life, whipping back and forth like a lashing tongue of flame. They have no tent, and as such are unprotected from the falling snow and the wind that carries it. In his opinion, the place is nigh uninhabitable.
"I suppose you could say that," Hendrik hums, noncommittal.

Summary
Daxter isn't sure how long they've been fighting their way across the city, but it feels like it'll never be enough. No matter what route they take, no matter how close they keep the kid, and no matter how many guards Jak puts down, the KG just keep coming.
Bullets are flying and the moment they turn the corner to the home stretch, so, so close to Vin's little hideout, Daxter sees the wall of blood red plate standing in their way.

Summary
It's only been a little over an hour since he found Jak, and Daxter's had to hear him talk for the first time, watch him turn into some weird grey monster, harass some old guy out of complete and utter confusion, and beat several armed guards unconscious with his bare hands. Overall, not his finest moments.
(In the end, maybe he really just needs a shower.)

Summary
At this quiet hour, just between very late in the night and very early in the morning, Rubacava seems to be under some kind of spell. While usually set between either extreme of bustling with life or being completely dead, at this quiet hour the town moves slowly; not quite alive, but not quite comatose. At this quiet hour the cold starts to creep back from the glass and a different kind of fog crawls over town, humid and warm. At this quiet hour, even a town that never sleeps could be called sleepy.
Manny Calavera does not sleep. He turns his cigarette over between his fingers and lets out a long, deep sigh.

For the past few years Eddie's teetered on the edge of two worlds, hanging in an uneven balance between them. Suddenly that balance shifts a little, and he's not sure he doesn't like it that way.

Summary
It wasn't his fault the mission had gone wrong, but it had. Instead of sending him away, Sasha had let him stay and fight alongside him and Milla. They'd taken cover behind some overturned machine, and Razputin had crept too far out, and Sasha had tried to pull him back but he wasn't fast enough and -
A piece of sheet metal torn from the rusted walls was lodged in his stomach, threatening to pierce his back and come out the other side.

Summary
When the human mind is confused and scared, when the human body is in danger, even the most trained psychics can go on autopilot. His brain carried him to a safe place. It's comforting to know she's one among the few of those.
She notices then how flushed his fingertips are, reddened skin peeking out from fingerless gloves. "Want me to make hot cocoa?"
