So we are moving to a lighthouse, you and I. While seas drown sailors, we'll be locked up safe and dry. And though our doors may knock and rattle in the wind, I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in.

ficlet: self cast shadows
soooo I did the five fun facts for a winnerdean spy au and then @le-trash-prince left a perfectly innocuous comment: "God it’s gotta be hard for North to just watch Dean suffer when he’s been told not to do anything 😭 He and Sonic better mother hen Dean to death" and I required no further encouragement to lose my mind first thing on a Monday morning.
~1k, North/Sonic&Dean. the car ride and what comes after.
The car stinks like dried blood, fear-sweat and something acrid that burns North's nose as he gently, carefully, holds Dean steady as Kim takes corners slightly too fast to be sensible. Sonic's on the other side, rummaging through the first-aid kit they'd spent hours checking and re-checking that it was fully stocked with everything they thought they might possibly need. Dean silently refuses to take the painkillers they offer.
"It'll be easier if you just get him in a shower," Kim says, eyes flicking to the rearview mirror as Sonic lightly dabs at the crusted blood on Dean's face.
"Yeah, sure," Sonic answers, and keeps going.
By the time they get to Alan's place Dean's face is clean and horrifying. Both eyes black and swollen, most likely a broken cheekbone, his mouth a mess of his own teeth-marks and cuts from something like a ring on a closed fist. North's own hands clench hard; Dean's stuttering inhale has him furiously relaxing his grip.
"It's okay," he soothes automatically, petting at Dean's shoulder—the least damaged looking part he can see. Dean doesn't relax, exactly, but he does take a slightly deeper breath.
Kim parks neatly right in front of where Alan's waiting all alone, arms crossed and lit from behind with all the lights on inside the house. North slides out first, taking most of Dean's weight (noticeably less than when he left, bones so fragile in North's arms it feels like he'll snap) as Sonic hurries around to help, first-aid kit clutched in one hand. Kim keeps the car running, waiting until they're clear to move it around to the garage.
When Alan reaches out, tries to take Dean from them, Sonic snarls, a sound from deep in his chest like North's never heard before. North feels Dean's aborted flinch shake all the way through him.
"Just—" North starts but doesn't know how to finish. It's Alan, of course: their boss, their pack alpha. He's safe. It would be safe to hand Dean over to him. It's expected. But North can't let go and Sonic is fierce and protective like he gets when he's in heat, except he's definitely not anything; still the only real smell is Dean and his bitter injured scent. "We got it, uncle."
It takes a moment, but Alan nods. "Okay. I got—Everything's all set up in Dean's room." He steps out of their way, arms folded again, face set stern like when he thinks he's not allowed to cry. North feels unkind about his lack of sympathy, but it was Alan's decision that brought them here. He doesn't get to feel bad about it. Not yet.
Sonic leads them not to Dean's room but to their room. It settles North a little when they cross the threshold and lock themselves in. Everything smells like the two of them: Sonic's sour apple and jasmine is all over their bedding, while North's subtler lemongrass and cedarwood drifts through the air.
The comfort of it must hit Dean as well, because he becomes true dead weight the moment they're fully inside. His eyes are open, when North checks, but he's not focusing on anything.
"Shower?" Sonic suggests uncertainly. "Or do you think, is the water going to hurt him?"
"Maybe a bath," North agrees. They move into the bathroom and fill the tub, lukewarm because Sonic thinks that's the best temperature. Dean flinches violently away when Sonic tries to take off his clothes, so in the end they all three clamber into the tub fully clothed.
Mostly North is used to keep Dean propped up and not in any danger of drowning, while Sonic works his way through cleaning Dean up: tenderly washing his hair with the fancy stuff Way gave him for his last birthday, the softest washcloth he could find to wipe away all traces of anything that isn't Dean. Whether it's the soft touches or the cooling water or the fact that's it's just them, just North and Sonic, Dean comes back to fully conscious and cooperating partway through.
He still doesn't really say anything, but he lets North manoeuvre them all so they can get at least their shirts off. North doesn't have it in him not to growl at the sight of Dean's chest all battered and bruised. He'd known what was hiding under the shirt, but it's very different seeing it through a screen than seeing it in his arms.
He wonders how much more he's hurting Dean, holding him up like this.
"Yeah," Dean sighs, laboriously lifting one hand to pat Sonic's arm. "I know."
Sonic hums, blinking furiously, as he carefully cleans Dean with the unscented body wash he usually uses before a heat, or when he's homesick.
North presses his face into Dean's wet hair and inhales deep. "You sure you don't want that painkiller?"
"When I go to sleep," Dean says. He's trembling all over, the exhaustion and the pain definitely hitting him now. Sonic works a bit faster. It's too difficult to get Dean's pants off when they're all tangled together in the tub, so they climb out and let their wet clothes clump on the floor in favour of wrapping the biggest towel they could find around Dean.
Sonic makes them stay in the bathroom while he organises their bedding; building a nest, North assumes. It will be good, to get Dean into their nest, and let him sleep while they keep watch. While they wait he braces Dean against the sink and dries his hair.
"Thanks," Dean breathes out when the hairdryer shuts off and their ears ring in the quiet left behind.
North doesn't know how to say that something like this feels like moving a small pebble from the mountain of guilt he has for leaving Dean, for watching over him without helping for so many days, for letting fucking Winner do what they wouldn't, so he says "you're welcome" and carries Dean to the nest when Sonic finally lets them in.
#my fic#pit babe#I don't even know what to tag this with#one day I won't use josh pyke lyrics for titles but that day is aeons away

not to be obsessed with the theon that lives in ur head but in ur modern au how does he come out to his family??
Well. i think balon always was like that boy's a sissy! he's not right! so theon from the outset has a very weird relationship with his family. his brothers constantly calling him gay but the slur for gay that starts with f. definitely did not make his psyche normal. and since ironborn culture is so patriarchal its expected to have sex with women. its not even heteronormative its just sexist because there's no equal footing for women not to imply heteronormativity is fuckin feminist LMAO)
i always keep the general canon plot outline when Pondering modern au.. so theon has some kind of breakdown/falling out/mid life crisis at the age of 19/whatever and returns home and gets microagressed by his family for a while. after a couple years (usually involving the ramsay torture labyrinth) and he's like 5% more self-actualised he visits pyke middle fingers akimbo going fuck maron fuck rodrik fuck you dad fuck this bitch ass family this sexy motherfucker before you takes it up the ass and has actual taste and if that makes you mad then KILL YOURSELF! then he runs home to asha's place and they eat candy and watch movies and he cries a little bit.
and balon never comes around to it but since maron and rodrik are still around to be straight and continue the family line or whatever he's just like eugh -_- well he always was a disappointment. alannys doesnt really get The Gay Identity but she's nice. she just worries the gay lifestyle might make theon too skinny and worries he's not eating enough. asha is like im the cooler gay and you are lame and i DO hate you for being gay actually because youre ruining the reputation of lgbts everywhere (shes just joshing :) or is she...). aeron is like well we've all been 19 once... whom amongst us.... the navy you know how it is.... and victarion goes What. I didnt. Wtf are u on about. I didnt do gay sex. Im normal (only reason he's not the most fucked up member of the greyjoy family is because euron is in jail for every single crime ever)
#house greyjoy#theon greyjoy#my truth...... i accept all interpretations tho ^_^#modern au#tw gay slurs#idk. if anyone needs that.

hii….!!!
maybe i listen more than you think / out ‘til it’s dark, late night drives and drinks in parks / at the edges of my fingers, never quite closing round it / if i could bottle up the seabreeze i would take it over to your house and pour it loose through your garden / when you’re near, my heart starts beating faster
the system only dreams in total darkness, the national + someone like you, sunsick daisy + theseus, the oh hellos + the lighthouse song, josh pyke + little death, the beths

And I've been leaving gifts out in the woods, that someone might stumble upon and wonder at their origins. I've been feeling like a fox with sad old eyes, whose skulk has all moved on to leave the dark and empty den behind.

What songs did you listen to while writing ROA?
Thanks for waiting so long for a reply. I typed out a huge playlist and then tumblr ate the post and I got very angry and had to leave it alone for a bit.
I was listening to The Jezabels’ album Prisoner on repeat at the time, and a healthy dose of their EP Cherry Pie too. If I could pick just five songs which really wrote Running on Air for me, they would all be from The Jezabels: Long Highway, Endless Summer, Deep Wide Ocean, City Girl, and Catch Me.
I got my old laptop up and running again so I could check my old playlists, and this one is from around the time I was writing Running on Air:
Song — Artist
Ages, Places — Wildlife Control
All I Know — Washed Out
All Eyes On You — St Lucia
An Ending (Ascent) — Brian Eno
Away We Go — Silver Firs
Breakers — Gem Club
Change of Time — Josh Ritter
Clair de Lune — Flight Facilities
Conductor — We Were Promised Jetpacks
Coward — Hayden Calnin
Daylight Hours — Infusion
Deserters — Rachel Zeffira
Duet — Everything Everything
Dust — Little May
Embrace — Pnau
Epilogue — The Shape of the Earth
Fall At Your Feet — Boy & Bear
Flashed Junk Mind — Milky Chance
Goodbye Serenade — The Rebel Light
Hey Now — London Grammar
Homage — Feist & Timbre Timbre
Honey (Sam La More Remix)— Lovers Electric
I Will Wait For You — Lowing
Idea for Strings — Gem Club
Into the Thicket — U.S. Royalty
Invisible — Infusion
Lullaby — Dark Mean
Marathon (In Roses) — Gem Club
Old Pine — Ben Howard
On the Nature of Daylight — Max Richter
Outro — M83
Particles — Josh Pyke
Piano & Beat — Dark Mean
Pink Rabbits — The National
Plans — Birds of Tokyo
Quiet — This Will Destroy You
Staring at the Ceiling — Arrange
Sun Showers — Arrange
The Last Day on Earth — Kate Miller-Heidke
The Miles and the Hours — Benjamin Morsberger
The Summer — Josh Pyke
The Way You Remember Me — St Lucia
They Don’t Know — White Sea
Torrent — Ásgeir
Trembling Hands — Temper Trap
We Own the Sky — M83
Wide Eyed, Legless — Laura Veirs
Waves — Magic Man
Note: I’ve done a few playlists for RoA and I know my music taste is all over the place. Most people skip the electro-rock and drum-and-bass tracks I add — I guess people don’t associate synth-pop and electro-rock with Running on Air. But if you give these songs a go, you’ll see a lot of inspiration in the lyrics. ‘Honey’ has the lyric, “We can’t accept what we do not get to choose.” And EDM song Embrace begins with, “On a night like tonight, you saved my life.” Experimental electronica song Daylight Hours has amazing lyrics: “This is the third trip in the back of your car, filled with memories flashing by like liquid sky, like electric stars that define everything we are…I’m trying too hard, I’ve gone too far, now everything keeps shifting in and out of time.” Lots of RoA inspiration!
