Witch!AU where Simon is a witch with the Sight, owner of Jericho cafe who bakes and brews his magic into the menu. Markus and his father Carl are witches who paint their magic onto canvas, and have just moved in across the road.
Simon takes over the care of Carl while Markus leads their newly freed people, and tries his best to knit the broken family back together after Leo arrives.
Meanwhile with the imminent return of Detroit’s residents to a city filled with deviants, a meeting called by the President on the horizon, and CyberLife’s reputation in tatters, the decision to deploy the RK900 is made. They need to prove deviants are dangerous, and a plan is hatched to give the RK900 an ability to counteract its RK predecessors
When Markus sustains a head injury from a violent protestor and damages his preconstruction program, all the possible and impossible realities blend into one. He soon finds himself walking down a myriad of different paths to try and find his way home.
Being the leader of the android populace and iconic revolutionary means there’s always going to be a target painted on Markus, this Simon knows will never change. What the men who ambush them one evening don’t know is that Simon is a good domestic, and good domestics always come prepared.
Blind since birth, Simon’s world is one of sounds and scents amidst the darkness. A chance encounter with a budding artist one morning becomes a collision of colours and music and perhaps the beginning of something more.
They are too different, this work of art for an artist that reads poetry from aged paper bound in linen, and an obsolete PL600 far past its expiration.
If he feels repentant, if he feels the need to atone then Simon will take his sin, he’ll take all of him inside of himself and he’ll return Markus to his unblemished state.
It isn’t the flashiest, slickest tattoo parlour but for Simon and Daniel ‘Jericho’ is the place where they can truly be free. Over the years they’ve carved out a place to call home, and after Josh and North join them it seems Simon’s family is complete. Until one day his brother gets a booking for a beautiful, intricate tattoo commissioned by Markus Manfred himself.
ADOPTABLE: Bolt, Australian Cattle Dog mix (1 y/o), Federal & India St., Nantucket, MA • “Somebody brought him into the vet clinic and said that they shut his front paw in a car door. The person never came back. He went to a specialist, and now we have a treatment plan. He’s a teenager – still a little mouthy and a little jumpy, but he gets along with dogs and people. I introduced him to an older couple who was thinking of fostering him, and within minutes he was flopping on his back for belly rubs.”
This is for Jess, who’s pretty much been a co-pilot of sorts the past few weeks and whom I’ve known since the Parks fandom. She surprised me by getting me the Pacific Rim novel, and I am forever grateful <3
