rotten work by corduroyserpent Summary: A cool damp cloth is laid across Legato’s burning forehead and before the hand that places it can dart away, he awkwardly catches three long fingers in his shaking grasp. Vash the Stampede does not pull back. It isn’t in his nature. “Kill me,” Legato pleads. There's a blank ticket with Legato's name on it. He doesn't want it yet.

The backs of his fingers brush against an old scar. A remnant of their last big fight, of Vash’s unwilling bullet and the instinctive flick of Legato’s threads that managed against all odds to keep him alive. A small furrow appears between Legato’s brows at the touch. “Is there something you require of me?” “You invaded my mind first.” Vash lightly knocks their foreheads together. “Weirdo.” Legato has a bad pain day. Vash does what he can to help

She hides her claws and files down her fangs. Acts like the bright lights don’t sting her eyes, that the audience’s laughter doesn't make her want to bare her teeth and snap. She pretends she is still human instead of something that is merely human-shaped. It is not easy. She doesn’t know how the Capitol citizens manage to do it every single day. But she’ll learn.

Skin Deep - A SVSSS Skin Creatures Zine contributor preview for corduroyserpent. "This subordinate must admit," Zhuzhi-Lang said as he placed a saucer of milk before the mewling creature who, just that morning, had been traipsing around with Regret of Chunshan spilling from his lips, "that he is at a bit of a loss. How did you become like this?" The skin-cat-thing formerly known as Tianlang-Jun was no help whatsoever. He made a noise that sounded like "mrrp" then poked his rosy tongue out to lap at the milk. Admittedly, Zhuzhi-Lang had not expected a response and already had an idea of what might have occurred, but he still felt aggrieved. "My lord, can't you take this more seriously?" He sank into a crouch, resting his hands on his knees. "lt is imperative that we get you back to normal." "Mrap," said Tianlang-Jun.

i shine only with the light you gave me by corduroyserpent Summary: “In my defense,” Tianlang-jun says as he elegantly lowers himself to sit cross-legged on the floor of the Holy Mausoleum, “I’ve never brought anyone back from the dead before. As far as complications go, this is relatively manageable. Wouldn’t you agree?” The question is directed towards a young child swimming in black robes far too elaborate and spacious for his minuscule size. The child simply blinks his big, dark eyes in response. It’s a familiar mannerism, and one that has only gotten cuter amidst accidental age regression. Tianlang-jun brings Zhuzhi-lang back to life. It doesn't quite go as planned.

Faint whispers already prickled at his ear. Children of the Sith. Sons of Sparda. Welcome home. He pulled at his earlobe, annoyed. “Chatty as ever.” He used the Force to flip his coat dramatically behind him and grinned at the soft sigh the action pulled from Vergil. “Let’s get this over with.” Language: English Words: 4,448 Chapters: 3/3 Dante knocked their shoulders together. “Race you to the temple.” “Childish. I’m not doing that.” “Okay.” Dante shrugged, taking a casual step past him. “I get it. You’re worried those old bones of yours won’t be able to beat me. And hey, you’re probably right. I am way more powerful than—” Vergil disappeared in a cloud of green mist. Having expected it, Dante was already dashing ahead with assistance from the Force. He was quick. But teleportation magick was quicker. It leaned heavily on the power of the dark side, too. Vergil was always playing with fire. “I have found my own balance,” Vergil said in response to Dante’s unspoken criticism when the latter slid with style through the angular entrance to the temple. It was dim and dusty inside. Vergil had his lightsaber out; its purple blade illuminated countless rocky protrusions along the cavernous walls. “Also”—he lifted a single finger, radiating smugness—“I’m up one.”

It’s totally invisible, but it’s supposed to take on a golden glow when the one who loves the sick person the most touches it.” Yeah. Shen Qingqiu thought it would be something like that. And obviously he was the one who needed to retrieve it. The person who loved Luo Binghe the most could be none other than Shen Qingqiu. So what if he had to venture into the Endless Abyss, and he had no idea where exactly that magical glowing flower could be found, or how to survive the horrific place that he’d kicked Luo Binghe down into all those years ago, or what the stupid System had in store for them. He would do anything for Luo Binghe. It wasn’t a question of if he would go, it was a matter of when. “It seems I must enter the abyss and find an invisible flower, then.” “Sounds easy enough,” came the pleasant voice of a person who was not Shang Qinghua. The door slid open a crack to reveal Tianlang-Jun. “When do we leave?”
