Edward doesn't kneel. Not anymore. Not since the crash that took Lily. In the years since, he's built a life with no give. ER shifts, back-to-back. The sharp clarity of the hospital: white lights, clean lines, no chaos. No bruises. No rules. That part of him, the one that craved being owned, he buried under routine and fluorescent glare. Until Lance brings Sykes into his orbit. Sykes. Calm. Unyielding. With eyes that stay on him too long and hands that know exactly where to press. He doesn't ask Edward to remember. He doesn't offer a way back. He simply holds out the silence and waits to see what Edward will do inside it. What begins between them isn't romance. It's reclamation. A return to the part of Edward he thought he buried with her ashes. But his body remembers. The stillness. The ache that meant trust. And Sykes doesn't flinch from that edge. He stands on it, with Edward beside him, toeing the line between sanity and surrender.

Isak Enquist is afraid to sleep. When he does, he never knows where he'll wake up or how much time has passed. Months can pass in hours. The people around Isak believe it's all in his head, that what he can do isn't possible. He insists that he's pulled across time and worlds as he dreams. Charzaphir Simnaril is a warrior and weapon used by his brother to keep the local populace cowed. When he comes across Isak, he dismisses him as a spy and sends him to the dungeons thinking that he's done with him. However, when his brother forces him to handle a work detail, Charzaphir discovers Isak is part of it. Isak, who can't hold a sword and acts as though he can't understand the language. Isak, who has secrets that he's not sharing. Isak, the one he has an undeniable connection to whenever he's near. Can they find common ground before Isak falls asleep again and disappears forever? CW: Violence, depictions or discussions of physical abuse, implied/offpage sexual assault, self-harm, suicidal ideation, forced medical treatment/assisted treatment.
