we dance in darkness (shivers down my spine) by Anonymous

Summary
The sound that escapes Occtis's mouth is completely unintentional, a crack in the perfect self-control of death. A small squeak, utterly undignified - but more than enough to send Julien scrambling upright, hissing in shock.
"You are awake, Tachonis."
Uh-oh. He sounds venomous. It's the tone of teachers, and parents, and figures of authority. The tone that means you've gone and done it now, boy. When Occtis was younger, he never understood what the it in question was. Now, dead nerve endings tingle, trying valiantly to paint his face with an embarrassed flush. The pieces of the equation he's been missing fall into place.
Oh, no. Oh, fuck. He's miscalculated. Badly. He knows this it a bit too well.
Occtis can't sleep anymore.
He hasn't mentioned this fact to his companions.
Some awkwardness ensues.- Language:

Summary
"Julien needs to keep an eye on him (or in this case tightly clasped hand around his arm), and Occtis can leech his warmth as the nights grow darker and colder and the possibility of him freezing solid becomes a genuine concern.
This, the party knows about; the sex they do not."Julien is refusing to look at his feelings about any of this.

Summary
It's an innocuous thing. It's just another piece of armor. Well, all right, fine, it's not. It's ornate, and sharp, and scary, and it obviously means something to Sir Julien Davinos. It means something, because his father had one as well, and according to the recap that Thaisha gave Occtis late at night when no one else was listening, Julien threw himself back through the Palazzo gates to claim it from his desiccated corpse.
It means something, because Julien wears it all the time.
Occtis has developed a fascination with Julien's weaponry.
Surely this can only play out healthily for them both.- Language:

Summary
"You'd best try your experiments on me," Julien says acidly. He's rewarded with a sharp inhale from the boy, one which he knows full well Occtis does not actually need. "I'll be down in the cellars tonight, if you insist on continuing your scientific work. If anyone is equipped to take your magic in stride, it is I. Just leave those poor flowers be."
He's certainly suffered enough wounds at the hands of the Tachonis already. Better the boy play with fire under his eye, rather than behind his back. Better that Julien judge Occtis Tachonis's new abilities up front, so that he can best defeat them, should the need arise.
And besides - he's a wizard, for Shapers' sake. A low-level, books-based, necromantic wizard. Julien can handle him just fine.
Occtis has some magical experiments to try.
Julien, as it turns out, might just be the perfect test subject.Series
