    Summary

    Wylan sucks in a breath, steeling himself and getting his order right in his head before opening the door. The sound of the door must have gotten Jesper’s attention, because he looks up from the machine behind the counter and waves.

    “Wylan! Hey, you're back,” he says, grinning at Wylan as if he truly is happy to see him. “Nina, look–” he taps her on the shoulder as Wylan walks over.

    Nina, who has just finished serving a customer, swats Jesper’s hand away lightly. “Yes, yes, I see him,” she says with an exasperated eyeroll, making eye contact with Wylan afterwards. She smiles at him. “Hey Wylan, what took you so long– I was stuck with only Jesper for conversation for like four days– it takes its toll on a person.”

    Wylan, laughing at Jesper’s feigned offence, responds. “I’m sure he’s lovely company to have.”

    “See! I am lovely.” he says to Nina, clearly proud of himself

    or:
    found family six of crows, Wesper-centric because I'm evil for these two characters and I love emotionally beating up Wylan and then giving him lots of comfort. updates fairly regularly, a few times a week :)

    Summary

    Shane Hollander was a poor boy, but he had a gift to give. He could make you see how the world could be--in spite of the way it is.

    And Ilya Rozanov was a hungry, young boy... a runaway from everywhere he had ever been. He was no stranger to the world, no stranger to the wind.

    In his delusional state, Shane goes into the Underworld and tries to do the impossible to get Ilya out.

    Maybe it will turn out this time.
