Summary
When he opened his eyes, he was alone, sitting seiza in the center of a cold room.
And then, all of a sudden, there was a woman sitting in front of him. He trailed his eyes around the room; nothing else had changed with the woman's appearance. Which meant, by necessity…
"The mononoke…is you."
There is not always a way for the Medicine Seller to gather information by simply asking questions.

Summary
"Now, what do we have here?" Emet-Selch lowered himself into a crouch beside the wounded man.
"I assume—" at this point Lahabrea's body took a heaving breath, only to interrupt itself with a far-too-wet cough, "—that you are not here to heal."
On a cooling battlefield, Emet-Selch encounters a dying man.

Summary
Lahabrea approached Erichthonios, steps slow and deliberate. The aether-melded poison was not deadly, nor painful. Instead, it twisted upon the impacted's aether. The symptom of simple confusion became something else.
"Erichthonios."
The boy's hand flew up and batted at the air violently—the swing missing Lahabrea by a nail's breadth—and Erichthonios snapped his head up to glare at him.
The confusion became rage.
(In which Erichthonios is pushed one step forward, but Lahabrea takes two steps back.)

Summary
A sharp taste, dripping with the essence of magic, suddenly blossomed in Vergil's space.
Quicker than one could blink, the pen was switched out for the Yamato, Vergil changing his position to that of a crouched ready stance in one fluid motion. His sharp gaze was immediately drawn to the demonic presence he could feel, spotting the form of a person not too far from him. They were crouched as well.
Two pairs of eyes of the same shade of blue met in the dim darkness. Recognition flared to life in both of them.
“It’s you…”
-----
Or, the five times Vergil met a misplaced man. And the one time Dante didn't recognize him.

Summary
Silence. Is it strange to speak to a cat? But this cat is his brother, and even as a human his brother was never the talkative type: speaking to Shigeo with no response is nothing unusual for Ritsu. So he should speak to him, Ritsu resolves; he should talk a lot, to make Shigeo feel comfortable at home again, to help him not feel self-conscious about being a cat now, just in case that’s how Shigeo’s feeling, in case self-consciousness is something which cats in general are capable of feeling.
It's no one's fault; it's just the way life is. You find love before your timer runs out, or you turn into an animal - birth, death, taxes, animal transformation as a consequence of failure to find requited romance: life's four constants.

Bookmarker's Notes
don't know how to explain it but the to-the-point and funny but fridge-horror absurdity of this fic sucked me in from like paragraph two. worth reading just for the writing style and vibe (though obviously beyond that the characterisations etc are on point too)

Nero is absolutely not equipped to deal with this.
