Charlie was tightly curled up in a cocoon of an old weighted blanket; it wasn’t terribly warm but at least the dense plastic filling wasn’t molding. Imprints were slowly forming where ze pushed zir face into one of the beady lumps. The pressure was nice, solid and real when nothing else could be. Zir breathing was harsh and irregular.

“So.” Vin was chest deep within a bean bag chair. “You’re having a field day with this, huh?”

“Pardon?” Renee asked, looking up from the sweater she had been inspecting for holes.

“Another kid from the same place they nabbed you from? There’s gotta be some deep and convoluted plot here, right? A proper scheme.”

We’re looking for answers, we want to know why. We’re looking to escape, we want to know where. We need to move on, we don’t know how.

Answering a slightly unusual summon Alcor finds himself possessing a child, with no explanation as to who did this, why anyone would, or just how big this whole plot is. Absolutely no one is happy with these events.

This is very much a story about fucked up kids having survived trauma and living with its consequences. It is not a story about traumatic things happening. There will not be graphic descriptions of anything. There will be some potentially triggering things, like casual suicide mentions. Nothing of this nature happens on screen or off.

I would say it’s an overall positive fic themes aside.

Ao3 link – highly advised as Tumblr has formatting issues

Haunted and Hunted

“It has been postulated that a demon could be bound to an individual’s dreamscape in a similar manner that one can be bound to a single part of physical space. The Mcmenoman barrier that is found in dreamscapes of a cognitive class-3 organisms would, when properly enforced with the wards necessary to bind a demon, largely cut off the demon from its own power source, making it so one could theoretically use this technique to both contain and control a demon. The demon would only be bound while the host remains alive, and as most demons are powerful enough that even constricted they could still destroy a normal Mcmenoman barrier, and because such bindings would effectively force the demon to possess the host, this technique could not be used unless either a host was found within an unheard of cognitive class or a mechanism could be implemented to ensure the demon did not seek the destruction of the host.”
