    Summary

    Step into “Fragments of Light”, a collection of AU-short stories set in the “Shadow and Bone” universe. The setting is around (or before) Alinas first weeks within the Little Palace.
    These tales offer a glimpse into General Kirigan’s relationships with those closest to him, showcasing his multifaceted nature as a leader, not a villain.
    There might be an unhealthy tendency towards h/c, so let me apologize in advance.
    Hopfully this collection will grow over time. I will add tags as I go along.

    Thank you for reading!!

    Summary

    "Figures I'd have to do this for you, even now." Izzy says, hand going to the dagger on his hip, even as he drops his sword. Throws it down, which sends shivers down Lucius's spine. Izzy takes pride in his weapons.

    Lucius remembers Roach joking that they're the only things Izzy Hands cares about, save for Ed. It's not as funny now.

    "What're you doing, Iz?" Edward is eyeing the dagger warily, hands held out in front of him.

    "I'm tired, Edward. So fucking tired." Izzy chokes out behind tears, shoulders shaking. "I can't be what you need, now. Loyalty's only useful if someone wants it, after all. I'm an old attack dog that's outgrown its use and is just terrorising the pups."

    "You want a fucking lap dog," he gestures to Bonnet, though he doesn't seem angry, "and I can't be that for you."

    Ed has been using Izzy as a punching bag, and Izzy has been all too happy to help him. They never talk, though, so both men assume they're in the right.
    I think Ed gets the benefit of the doubt whereas Izzy is set on fire for the most minor of grievances. Both of them gotta figure their shit out. In the meantime, Izzy will get love from new people, who see his worth. Won't let him self-destruct.

    Summary

    My name. He'd said my name without any anger or resentment attached to the syllables. They were flat, his voice sliding over the letters in a monotone fashion, tracing my soul. A simple admission of existence, that's all it was. A reference to an object whose presence was blatant and undeniable.

    And yet it encompassed the entirety of my being.

    OR

    The one in which Ivan finds Till after a particularly rough 'lesson' and gives him the comfort he so desperately deserves.

    ******

    Till's perspective in Chapter 1 and updated with Ivan's perspective in Chapter 2!

    Summary

    Till blinked. Ivan's tone did not sound like he was joking back at him.

    “You… You like me?”

    “That’s right.”

    He paused. “As a friend, right?”

    “No.”

    When Ivan randomly confesses one morning, Till finds himself reevaluating the nature of their relationship.The only problem is that it hurts his brain whenever he tries to think about it, and Ivan is perfectly fine with the way things are.
