Summary
“stop— stop calling me that!” she screams, her hands pounding against his chest, and it reminds him too much of that one evening twelve years ago. how her face, red and teary, had betrayed the bravery that she had mustered in hopes of an honest answer. how his stomach had felt like it had housed creeping bugs at the intensity of her expression and at the crawling realisation that regardless of what he says or does, everything would change.
he’d lied then; ran away. and, for what? to end up living through a lifetime full of regrets and dreams where he’d made a different choice from the reality he’d set upon himself.
how could he ever think of doing the same thing now?

Summary
if everything had been the way it was years ago — if everything had stayed the same, there wouldn’t be any doubt that she’d have gone. she would have been granted a golden invitation; she would have had flowing dresses that are hers and carriages that, perhaps may not be her family’s, but still her carriage for the night. she would have been ushered by her mother to prepare by the early morning; she would have had her forehead kissed by her father when they’re finished preparing by the evening. she would have had a chance.
but, as it is, except for one frustrating thing, everything had changed, and she could only smile tightly as she tells him, “apologies, your highness, but i believe i’ve been stationed to patrol the outskirts that night.”
(Or: the cinder that decorates her head may not come from the ashes that line the insides of a chimney, but it is cinder all the same. cinderella!au knight raven, king narmer)

Summary
“with this renewed life, you, who are the lowest among the stars, will shine bright for him.” fine, she thinks, gritting her teeth as she rises to her feet. whatever, she hisses out, the taste of something acidic and rotten still on the back of her tongue.
of course, this is all for him; everything always has been, abigail curses in her heart – yet, she doesn’t stop the tears that fall down her cheeks as she reaches out for him, the dirt under her nails surely soiling the white of his robes that he is gently covering her with.
her renewed life? what does that matter to her when her cousin’s here, alive and well? “this time, cousin, i’ll be content. so, please, don’t die.”
(or, royal!au where the infamous debauched princess of grandis goes home with her cousin instead of spurning him away)

Summary
“death follows this body no matter where it goes,” he tells her, and she doesn’t laugh. close — almost, but she doesn’t. (she doesn't really have the propensity for humour, especially since he is trying to kill her. there is no witty banter between two foes, unlike the movies he had managed to rope her into liking.)
(but, she’ll take the bait anyway, if only to see if she can drag him out.)
she shifts her weight from one foot to the other, then cocks her head to the side. “i’ve never been called “death” before.”
Or: the five times zelmer kills him and the one time ollie survives (ft. divine beings take over their vessels body sometimes au)
