    Summary

    Sniper is a bit of an enigma to Scout.

    Now, he may be a bit thick-headed, but if there’s one thing Scout knows, it’s people. Growing up as the youngest of 8 brothers, he had to learn how to read them pretty well: guess their moods; predict their actions. It saved him a lot of beatings and harsh words from his elder brothers.

    And, of course, that certain skill had carried on with him to adulthood. So yeah, if there’s one thing he knew, it’s people. He knew his crew...except Sniper.

    But, you see, Scout's a stubborn guy, and when he puts his mind to something, you bet your ass he's going to do it. No one is that shallow - maybe other than Soldier - so he KNOWS there's more brewing in that slouch hat covered head, he's just gotta look a little closer, right?

    So, Scout's made a decision. He's going to know Sniper, and won't give up until he does. Just watch him.

    Summary

    "Engineer became obsessed with planning and building The Gunslinger. Even on any sort of mission, he was distracted. He was only thinking about what he had to do, and how he was going to do it. In the meantime, he had created a brace for his strained wrist. But he continued his work. He had to. All of this was to strive for something better. So what if he had to cut off his own hand to do it?"

    Engineer starts having wrist trouble and decides building a new hand is better than fixing the one he's got. A Gunslinger backstory.

    Summary

    A Sequel to A Symphony of Suffering

    BLU Spy is back home, his head sewn back on his body after weeks of suffering at the hands of the RED Medic who kept him captive. Yet, despite it all, he doesn't feel whole again. Engineer tries his best to keep him together, but some things aren't so easily healed, even with advanced healing technology. It will take much more time to heal the scars etched into his skull, and the painful truth he discovered about what him and his teammates really are hangs on his mind more than ever.

    Kill me, my dear. Kill me and get it over with.

    This fic has been rewritten as part of Break Me / Remake Me!
