Summary
“What’s going on?” Lucy says. “It seems like you know something.”
Moonshadow sighs, and brushes her long hair back over one shoulder. “I’m sorry, I’m not trying to freak you out. Santa Carla is just the kind of town people come to, to disappear,” she says. “Maybe that’s just what Steve did.”
“Steve isn’t like that,” Lucy says weakly. “I’ve known him since we were kids.”
Moonshadow looks at her again, almost in a pitying way. “It’s the people you really think you know that want to vanish the most,” she says.
Lucy blinks.
“But,” Moonshadow turns at last, wrapping an arm across Lucy’s hips and squeezing, starting to steer them towards the vague direction of the boardwalk exit closest to the bluffs. “It’s important to you, so we can do a little looking. As long as you let me give you a little gift later.”

Summary
Years ago, the Midnight Crew were the terror of the Eastern Seaboard. It wasn't an easy life, being English's archenemies, with all the other gangs on their asses half the time and the Feds the other half, but Droog wouldn't have traded it for anything in the god damn world.
Then they got old, and they had kids relying on them.
Nowadays things are pretty quiet, most of the time. English has been dead for years, the Felt cut down in the last gang war, all but the ones who were civilized enough to make a peace with. Crime made them rich enough to live out their days, and they've squirreled themselves and their money and their kids away in Middle America where the Feds will never find them. Not that easy, of course. A life of crime and violence doesn't really prepare you for raising kids, or for how exactly to deal with people who don't think you deserve to exist when you can't hit back without drawing attention to yourselves.
But all things considered, it's a pretty good life.

For years, no one speaks about it directly. They simply develop new etiquette surrounding Aranessa’s circumstances: Julien’s father, along with all of the adult vassals and some of the servants of the family, begins wearing a new bracer with easy fastenings on his ungauntleted arm.
Hours and hours he spends in her company, drinking in her attention like a flower drinks the sunlight, guarding her from all danger with a glad heart—but she never pulls Julien aside.Series

Sam sprinted alongside the road, the satchel bouncing against his back. The long grass whipped around his feet, but he liked the grass better than the gravel. He dodged up the walk, taking the stairs to the porch in two hops. He banged on the screen door. “Mr. Wiggie!”

The Case of the Man Who Two-Thirds Wasn't There by glisteningceruleaneyes
Fandoms: Disco Elysium (Video Game)
29 May 2022
Tags
Summary
Three-and-one-third bodies have been found in an abandoned vehicle on the riverbank.
It would be a challenging case even without the bad weather, weapons smuggling, white nationalists, industrial accidents, and the concept of pedigree dog breeds—but over it all hangs one troubling question: What is it that fascinates you about Kim Kitsuragi? Is it working class camaraderie? A sinister hex of mysterious origin? Did you imprint on him in Martinaise, like an amnesiac duckling? If you don’t figure out what’s going on soon, people are going to start to notice. Especially him.
And sooner or later? Everything is related to the case.

Summary
When Thomas Lawrence came by the papal apartments that evening, he came, unsurprisingly, with a bundle of papers under his arm.
Vincent tried on and discarded four separate teasing comments about it, but didn’t get to decide on one before Thomas silently handed them over, and he realized they were newspapers, opened and refolded over the weekly comics, his favorite. Three of them, one for each week he’d been away.
Ah, he thought, with the feeling of a sudden hard deceleration in his chest, the press it put on his heart. Ah. All right then.
