    Summary

    Zanka's been ignoring the letters. As long as he doesn't reply, they should eventually stop. Or at least, they'll become a problem for future him.

    Except he's officially out of time, because his siblings have come to take him home.

    Or: the one in which Zanka doesn't want to be in an arranged marriage, and ends up spilling the beans to Jabber during a fight. Jabber suggests eloping.

    Summary

    "GREAT! Just great! As if this could GET any better!" Zanka bites out, seething. Of course he's stuck here, injured, in a damp, dirty cell, and of course he's stuck here with fucking Jabber of all people.

    Jabber whistles appreciatively, "Man, you're in a mood today. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" and cackles at his own joke. Zanka's gonna strangle him. He's gonna rip out those bars with his bare hands and use them to beat Jabber to death.

    or

    Zanka is taken by some people who want to study givers. Jabber is there too. This somehow makes everything both better and so much worse.

    Summary

    Jabber and Zanka learn to embrace each other like the blade of a guillotine embraces the skin of a neck: eager and with irreversible damage. Just like Sisyphus, one must imagine them happy.

    Summary

    Hard work beats genius. Zanka is gonna tattoo that onto the sorry fuckin' hide of everyone who's ever doubted him, and he's gonna start with Jabber fuckin' Wonger. He's gonna prove he's nothing like that guy, or his shithead family.

    (The rush he feels at the sight of blood, at the sweet sound of agony, doesn't mean a thing.)
