    Summary

    'Larkspur' and related angiosperms. Please exercise caution when perusing the Poison Garden: these flowering plants are lovely to behold when in bloom, but have the potential to be rather deadly.

    Summary

    “A vessel must be seamless. You must not leak. You cannot hold honor if you are cracked.”
    For Zanka Nijiku, life was an iron fence built out of pristine white uniforms, high-town expectations, and flawless mathematical angles.
    Then came Jabber—a fluid, unhinged Raider who brought the stench of burning chemicals, raw copper, and chaotic freedom into spaces where he didn’t belong.
    What starts as a secret, volatile connection hidden away in the dark warehouses of Sector 3 quickly spirals into a battle against deep-seated internalized homophobia, rigid family legacies, and a border town on the brink of collapse.
    When their hidden relationship is violently exposed to the Cleaners, Zanka is forced to face his greatest fear: that the rules he spent his life protecting are the very things keeping him hollow.
    From a secret shame to an absolute, unyielding alliance, this is the story of two broken pieces finding a way to lock together where the straight lines of the world no longer matter.

    Summary

    Zanka Nijiku—nihilist, pessimist, misanthropist—lives his life on a single mantra: love is bullshit. Nothing but primitive bursts of passion that interfere with the symmetry of an otherwise right-angled world.

    This offends Heaven; and so naturally they do the only logical course of action:

    Send down a cupid and force him to find love.

    (Or, Jabber is an angel sent down to help Zanka find love, and Zanka wants to end it all.)

    Summary

    “Tap out.”

    Jabber says nothing this time, but doesn’t tap out either. He is uncharacteristically silent. Zanka looks at him then, really looks. Even fucked up, Jabber is unfairly beautiful. Jabber flutters his long, long lashes at Zanka, gaze laser-focused on him as he swirls his own blood in his mouth. Then spits it out.

    Right. Into. Zanka’s. Face.

    “No.”

    Zanka is on him like a wild dog before he can even finish the word.

     

    Or; Zanka's got an itch and Jabber can scratch it. What else is there to say?
