    Summary

    “All Jotaro’s other targets are dead. Except for you.” Malika cocked her head, considering Kakyoin. “After he came back the last time and he was…alone in there, I…grew him flowers, a few times. I wasn’t supposed to. But he was in the dark for so long. I thought he wouldn’t mind losing a little bit of blood as long as it reminded him there was still something left.”
    “What do you mean,” Kakyoin said slowly, “‘in the dark’?”
    Malika didn’t answer. White flowers unfurled from her forearm, gentle trickles of blood rising up the thin stems. She watched them thoughtfully.
    White poppy; consolation.
    She plucked a poppy out of her arm and held it carefully between two fingers. “You have to get him out,” she said. “You have to.”

    AU where Jotaro is the evil brainwashed assassin sent to kill Kakyoin, who makes life very complicated for Dio by being better at counterpossession than he is.

    Summary

    The closest Alastor's ever gotten to romance comes in the form of—in order of increasing hilariousness—a couple of botched youthful attempts at kissing, cheap mass-produced smut comics, and the wildly entertaining tales of other people's sordid affairs.

    He's never wanted sex. He's never wanted love. He's never seen a problem with this.

    It's taken about a century, but he's pleasantly surprised to discover that the rest of the world is finally starting to catch up with his perspective.

    More than anything else, he’s pleased that these new modern attitudes have given him extra opportunities for bad puns.

    Summary

    Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.

    When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.

    But most of all, Tim is alone.

    (If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)
