It trickles back slowly. He’s sitting in the passenger seat of Juliet’s car. They’re listening to music on the drive back from a suspect’s house. She rolls her eyes at a joke he cracked, but she’s smiling. There’s nothing else after that except for the sound of a horn, bright headlights, and an explosion of pain.
OR,
Shawn and Juliet get into a car crash (ambiguously set sometime during season 3)

Mac flinches out of oblivion, and he thinks he might throw up. His entire body feels brutally jarred, shaken. He hit the ground and expected the agony of it to follow, but nothing comes.
Just a deep, unrelenting exhaustion.
He draws heavy, panting breaths into his flattened lungs.
The world shakes under him. It takes far too long for Mac to realize it’s not the world trembling, it’s him. Harsh shudders wrack his frame and all he has the strength to do is lay there and try to piece himself back together.
OR,
Mac has the worst acid trip of his life.

Another pair of hands wrap around Mac's other arm and heave him bodily into the open trunk.
He starts struggling again when the realization hits him. He kicks out with his legs when they’re maneuvered into the trunk and he gets a slap in the face for it that makes his vision go gray and fizzle out briefly.
When he comes back to his senses, the trunk slams shut and he’s in the dark, the confined space lit red by the taillights. The brightness of the lights makes the sharp pain in his skull spike fiercely and he cringes inward.

Mac purposefully avoids looking at his reflection, quickly turning his back to the small mirror hanging over the sink as he changes into the new clothes. He stumbles and almost falls over several times, unsteady on his feet and still working through the dizziness. He’s out of breath by the time he’s done, leaning heavily against the bathroom wall.
He stares at his hands again, covered in small cuts and dried mud. Mud from the grave he just crawled out of.
His breathing stutters in his chest. Mac pushes off the wall.
Still ignoring his reflection, he turns on the tap. He winces when he shoves his hands under the icy spray, uncaring about the temperature.
He doesn’t care. He just needs to get it off. He grabs a towel and starts scrubbing harshly. The water slowly becomes lukewarm, more bearable for his reddened fingers.
Mac pays it no mind. He stares at the brown water swirling in the drain.
He scrubs and scrubs and scrubs until his skin is pink, until the cuts caked in mud and grime are clean and bleeding again. The water turns from brown to pinkish. Mac’s hands are shaking again. The tremors run up his arms and he blinks through the tears blurring his vision.
It’s not enough.
Mac scrubs trying to get rid of the damned mud.
A sob catches in his throat when it just won’t come free.
It’s under his shredded fingernails. It hurts to scrub at them, but Mac doesn’t care about that.
The mud clings to him. To his clothes, to his skin, to his hair. Everywhere. It won’t come out. Mac can’t get it out.
His chest hitches. The tears burn hot in his eyes and a few escape when he blinks.
The skin of his hands is irritated and raw from so long under the water. The waterlogged towel is stained with blood and mud. Mac drops it like it burned him.
He finally looks up and meets his eyes in his reflection. He barely recognizes the face in front of him.
His face is pale and streaked with flaking dirt. His hair is tangled and nearly black with dried mud, the bright bathroom light glinting off the few blond strands that peek through. The eyes that stare back are blown wide, pupils dilated. They’re rimmed with red and shadowed purple, making them look slightly sunken and giving Mac a haunted appearance.

He’s sinking back in, the mud refusing to relinquish its hold on him. A shudder runs up Mac’s spine as he drags himself out of the mud. Slowly, painfully, clawing at the earth trying to find a hold to use to free himself. Small roots and grass are ripped loose in his destructive wake of panic.
Finally, finally, Mac’s legs pull free from the mud and scrambles back from the unmarked grave.
The unmarked grave that almost became his.

Mac returns home from a botched mission in Paris five days late with a broken collarbone, several broken ribs, and a box of French pastries as an apology to Bozer.
oh i don't think i've told you guys about the time loop fic i've been cooking up :)
tw blood and mcd (temporary but mac doesn't know that ;) yet )
Mac’s hands are red with blood. It’s everywhere and there is so much of it. It pools around him, the puddle growing, spreading. He can’t staunch the flow from where it stems. A tiny little hole aimed for the heart. A heart that stopped beating moments ago.
The blood no longer comes in spurts to match the frantic rhythm of a racing heartbeat. It just drains out of the body in front of Mac.
Jack’s body, his numb brain reminds him.
It loops around endlessly, a record on a turntable. Jack’s dead, Jack’s dead, Jack’s dead.
Jack’s dead because Mac’s plan failed. Jack’s dead because of him.
I successfully got my sister to watch the last of us with me and now a tlou au with Mac and Jack is brewing in my head and there's nothing I can do to stop it.
I already have my mac sees ghosts au and too many wips to finish BUT this one is soooooo compelling. Jack as Joel and Mac as Ellie as they travel halfway across the country together, with Jack slowly starting to care so much about this random kid he didn't even want to be saddled with at first.
