    Summary

    “The only way to truly know that kissing isn’t for me would be to test it.” Grian propped his head on his hand, mulling it over absently. “Specifically, with someone who’s known to not be a bad kisser.”

    His roommate tensed.

    Grian raised a brow. “Is something the matter?”

    At the sound of his voice, a small change crossed Scar’s face. He relaxed a bit, mouth pulling into a polite smile. “Well, if a good kisser is all you need,” Scar said. “I’ve never gotten any complaints.”

    - or -

    After a couple bad experiences, Grian's fairly sure kissing isn't something he enjoys. Scar seeks to change that.

    Summary

    When a string of robberies shakes a quiet town, Grian, a clerk at the local permit office, finds himself caught in the middle of the chaos. He crosses paths with Officer Scar, whose charm and easy grin make the situation feel a little less dire. But as the investigation deepens, so does their connection, and Grian begins to realize that some risks might just be worth taking.

    Summary

    Grian has a little issue, he's a lacking a bit of money to pay his rent in time. He has only a few days left before payment, and he can't risk being kicked out of this apartment, since he had been living there with Scar since the beginning of their studies together.
    But he's no beggar or crybaby, he won't resort to just ask his friends to lend money, that was just the wrong thing to do.

    Instead, he'll do something he knows he's good at and knows it'll give him the money just in time. The only small downsides of this side hustle are that for one, it's illegal, and two, he hates coming back bruised all over and having to make up a really good lie for it.

    So, just for tonight, he'll go use his fists to get himself to his goal, no matter who's against him. Well, there's of course one exception...
    Just one person he'd be willing to stop fighting for.

    Summary

    Grian is really short on time for his assignment for work, where he had a ton of things to prepare. He was just in the last straight line, he just needed to push a little further. It was frustrating of course, because he struggled so hard on things that were supposed to be simple, but it had to be done.
    He had a week to finish it, or else he might get fired and have to plan on a whole career change...

    He knew two things for certain at that moment, one, that he couldn't get any work done if he tried to rest, because he knew he was going to waste too much time, and two, that he never ever have wanted for Scar to see him like this.

    Summary

    He remembered so many times that sight gave him a groan of exhaustion after a long patrol, or a jitter of nerves as he calculated his approach.

    Not today.

    A grin broke over his face, and he let out a whoop of joy, changing direction to swing down onto the mostly deserted side street. The screams of the few passing pedestrians running in the opposite direction, some of them calling out encouragement to him for the upcoming fight as he passed, were like music. 

    Like a memory he feared he’d never relieve, back before him in blazing color.

    And tomorrows problems could all fade off to be dealt with later.

    {In which somethings never change, like the feeling of a glamor bullet passing 3/4 of an inch from your face...and maybe Scar shouldn't be so nostalgic for it. But it's been a rough three months, so you can't judge the guy.}
