Summary
He can only sit there, staring at Ewron as if the world is about to collapse around him and tear him apart. Is he shaking? He can’t quite tell.
Logically, Ash should feel angry. Hateful. That's what normal people feel whenever they come across their ex in public. Sure, there's a tight knot in his stomach, but he wouldn't call that hate.
There's a part of him that feels a hint of yearning woven in, too. Not that he’ll acknowledge it.
Ewron rises to his feet and flicks his eyes up and down his face like he’s waiting for Ash to say something.
He doesn't know if he can.
Or, Ash and Ewron make (and mend) their family, however strange their methods may be.

Summary
Flame can sense her shrug through the line. "So?" she tuts. "Wemmbu's not gonna be there."
Admittedly, she perks up like a dog at that. For as long as she can remember, she and Wemmbu have always competed for the same role, no matter how big or small. Flame swears it's not intentional. At least, not on her part.
Even now, that conniving bitch auditioned for the same role as her. Which, mind you, she didn't tell anyone about. Seriously, what a stalker.
Plus, it'd be a first for her to not go to a party. Sometimes, Flame feels like she's being haunted by that obnoxious flash of purple whenever she's dragged out of the house.
It usually doesn’t end well, either. The last time she saw Wemmbu at a party, it ended up a mess. She had one too many drinks, said a few things she probably shouldn’t have, and maybe they fought. Just maybe.
The point is, since then, she's vowed never to attend another party. Until now, it seems.
Or, Flame manages to enjoy herself at a party for once. Somewhat.

Summary
He presses on the skin next to the slash. It brings more blood to the surface, leaking rain-like droplets onto his palm.
Shame burns beneath his navel; broils so brightly that it nearly extinguishes the flames of desire burning alongside it. He shouldn't have hurt him. That's all Ash tends to do these days, hurting those he loves.
Ash breathes out. It’s a shaky drag of air, and Ewron frowns.
"I'm fine," he assures. The words bounce off him like raindrops off a metal roof.
It doesn't matter if he's fine. Ash hurt him.
The lump that forms in his throat is sudden. He immediately swallows it down. Ewron's enjoying this, so he should too. It'd be selfish of him to stop this because he didn't like it.
Ash doesn't know why that line of thought seems so familiar.
Or, Ash and Ewron's needs don't quite sync up.

Summary
Ewron likes to think he's a very capable man, and an even more capable assassin.
Sure, the Hussars, his hit squad, keep him in the dark about their plans, which is funny considering he grew up with them, but that only makes him more independent.
Regardless, they trust him to get the job done. That’s all he needs. They wouldn’t have chosen him from the four of them to assassinate the Supreme Leader of The Regime if they didn't trust him.
Then again, maybe that doesn’t hold much weight. He’s the only person in their entire group who carries out the killings.
Or, Ash and Ewron both plan to kill each other, but end up more attached than they should be.

Summary
Ewron thumbs the rough mattress of the bed he's sitting on. "I don't care about whatever happened with you and Katie," he bites.
Ash's brow twitches. "So then why'd you ask me—"
"—Because this isn't one of those meetings," he interrupts, cheeks flushing pink. He doesn't even look him in the eye, which is a good thing. Ash’s expression isn't any less embarrassing.
The silence that falls between them is unnerving. Makes Ash want to pick at his skin, his entire being.
He'd start with the heart, twisting and tearing the ventricles apart so he wouldn't have to feel so much for this absolute fucking idiot.
Ewron would rather fuck it out than apologize to him.
At least, that's what Ash assumes his intentions are, considering his words and the fact that he'd brought him to a cabin with only a bed.
Or, after they argue over Katie and KFC (again), Ash and Ewron need to blow off some steam. Luckily, Ewron has just the solution.

Summary
“I'd let you,” Ewron says, disdain burning in his glare, “choke me until I have no hearts left.”
He tugs at Ash’s jacket to have him closer, aggressive like a dog pulling at a piece of meat to tear it apart. For a heartbeat, an ugly urge to punch and kick Ewron until he bleeds flashes in his mind. And it doesn't seem like too bad of an idea.
“That's no pledge of loyalty.” He grins incredulously. His calf presses down on Ewron’s thighs, keeping him locked. “You'd enjoy it.”
He hums. “I’d let you rip the amulet away from my neck and leave me weak again.”
“Really? How touching.”
Settles on the last resort. “I would let you do anything, and I’d do everything for you, too.”
Ash reminds Ewron who he pledged his loyalty to that first day.

Summary
"I'm serious, it's a personal choice."
Ewron laughed after a tense pause. "No, clearly, it is! I mean look at you, my man, you could have any bitch you want. Man or woman."
Ash cringed. "I just— it's not something I'm too interested in. It probably wouldn't be as good as the thrill of killing is for me."
.
Ash and Ewron don't have much to lose anymore and try new things together

Summary
Ewron plucked at his saturated shirt. The wet fabric made a disgusting squelching sound against his skin as he pulled it away. “I’m soaking in blood now for nothing. I have to change.”
“No, no, no. It’s okay. Keep it on. Just keep it,” Ash rushed out, his voice dropping to a breathless, needy whisper.
OR,
Church meeting between Ashswag and Ewron gone wrong. NOT CLICKBAIT! (+Ewron is covered in blood, and Ash is a vampire.)
