Fics like smoking gun

“I think,” Faust says, softly; his mouth doesn’t seem to move—but his head does, tipped down, the moonlight gliding in tiny rectangles down his dark spectacles. The eyes behind them, kept up, see so deeply into Bradley that he takes a step back. “I think that you look at me and remember yourself. That is why I displease you.” One more step back, one thousand memories flitting through his mind: meals cooked from scratch in a measly kitchen, tucked in a hidden cave sonorous with laughter; blood spilling the color of pilfered wine, toasted and drunk from glasses offered to each other through linked arms; the crack of a rifle and the thick muteness of a bullet striking skin not to kill but to enhance, to sharpen the hisses of flung magic cutlery; blood again, from him, now, and salt from tears spilling on him, like the salt of damnation—of Bradley’s, of them, of everything—thrown into his ears too many times, the cruelties becoming one uninterrupted sentence; those same protestations dying when their mouths met, anyway, always, until the law caught Bradley before Nero could leave.
