Summary
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
That’s how the saying goes. Take enough punches from the universe and eventually it becomes harder and harder to pop back up, to see the worth in fighting back, to stop yourself from turning around and delivering some punches of your own.
Tim never wanted to become the villain—
“Appendicitis,” Tim breathed in disbelief. “Are you fucking kidding me?”
—but he’d be lying if he said he wasn’t tempted to burn the world to ashes when shit like this kept happening to him.

Summary
Douxie knew, going in, that his plan was only temporary. And though he had fixed them with a bitter glare and dared them to do their worst, fear still churned raving and angry in his gut.
No one was coming. And soon, the Order would have Nari.
— or: Douxie will do anything to ensure that Nari stays out of the Order's hands, even if that means becoming part of the collateral damage himself.

Summary
Claudia nods at the die in his hand. “That’s from Battlecharged, isn’t it? That old game we used to play? You and I were mages, Soren was a knight, your dad was so lawful good, it hurt. Remember?”
“Oh, yeah.” Callum chuckles a little and tosses the die in his hand. “It’s funny. I thought this was bigger.”
“We were smaller then.”
Callum snorts. “I suppose. But I swear there was a bigger one too. The runes glowed. It was supposed to be a key or something?”
“Oh?” says Claudia. The air shifts. “Weird. Where would it be?”
There’s a pause. Suddenly Callum can’t even hear the waves anymore, and it’s just him and Claudia and a threat in her smile.
“Where’s the cube, Callum?”
