Summary
“Sveta,” Ilya answers, letting his mouth sink into the forward sound of his mother tongue: “Are you okay?”
“It’s Alexei,” she says. Her voice is a stolid calm. Ilya stares absently ahead, finding a spot on the way to steady his gaze on. Across the thousands of miles between Ottawa and Moscow, Svetlana says: “It was an overdose.”
His ears ring, a high pitched sound of radio feedback.
-
Ilya becomes the guardian of his sixteen year old niece after his brother passes away.

Summary
“Oh,” Essek says, and a tremulous smile comes to his mouth. “That’s wonderful. You, ah.” He licks his lips. “You understand what happened?”
Caleb nods. “Ja. Clone spell. I don’t – things are a little blurry. But I . . . must have died?”
A ripple passes across Essek’s face. “You did,” he says quietly, with a rasp to his voice. “Just now.” He swallows audibly. “I barely made it here in time."

Summary
The elevator gave a strange lurch—not enough to throw him off his feet, but enough that he was a little off balance, the bouquet and backpack suddenly more precarious than before—and stopped in its descent, and he instinctively looked at his companion in the cab.
Her lip had already curled. "Thelyss."

a little water clears us of this deed by jadeandquartz
Fandoms: Critical Role: Aramán (Web Series)

Summary
Plans are afoot. Dire, cruel, and absolute. The Lord Tachonis wishes your House gone.
An attack planned on the Palazzo. All courtiers, generals, scions to be murdered, their corpses claimed for legions of undead. No word on a timeline, of course. Primus Tachonis could be coming for them today, or tomorrow, or sometime next week.
So there was no time to waste. The scales of power are tilting in Dol-Makjar. If one Sundered House has to tumble from them to even out the balance...well, so be it.
That House will not be Aranessa's own.
***
Aranessa Royce orchestrates a murder, cleans up the evidence, and tries to go to sleep.

Summary
Only once have you felt your broken body so thoroughly deny you and even then, with the rope tight around your throat, you had at least been able to weep, to scream. Your body kneels, staggers. It fights for breath it does not need.
You had not thought it possible to grow colder, a chill that seeps from your soul and finds nowhere to go. Quietly, shakily, you whisper, Delilah? It falls not from your lips, but from your mind. You have never wanted an answer less.

In the quiet dark of the Parchwood, Delilah takes control. Bells Hells do not notice.
