Already wanna draw stuff for this fic 👀

broken boy, perfect view (snippet)

a long time ago, i wrote probably the only vaas/ajay fic to ever exist, and forgot to finish. i decided to show some of ya’ll what i was writing, the story is about maybe 6 chapters but definitely expected to be less than 10 if i ever continue this. anyway, please enjoy: the first chapter of broken boy, perfect view!

I. no u-turn! 

The year is 2005. July. The number isn’t important, just the place it happened to be.

California is weird: Up north is cold, foggy, even, a bit hard for sunshine to come around but it doesn’t snow. Down south is what everybody talks about all the time: where it’s hot, where Hollywood stalks by, and it’s just a little bit hotter than what Ajay is used to. 

It’s fine. The neighborhood his mother had put them in is fine too. He’s only been here for about a week and nothing had been out the ordinary yet, not really (not that he was expecting to). Their town is close to the pier and it’s a good walk from a carnival front and back, and the beach is practically open. 

The place is fine, and Ishwari isn’t really around as often, so he gets the house to himself but could probably wander elsewhere anyway, so he picks the better idea and steps out.

i think what makes my stomach turn the most is how much of arthur was known and learnt by merlin. entire world's full of sadness, grief, anger, happiness, joy, love. he knew all of it, was there for most of it. he knew that man inside and out, better than arthur knew himself. merlin, god, merlin knew every little bit of him. literally. and arthur only got as much as merlin could give. as much as merlin was allowed. it's like they were in the same room, separated by glass. merlin could see arthur clear as day, whilst arthur stared through something that was all but a double sided mirror, only bits and pieces visible, the rest of it just reflecting himself.
