If Your Life Won't Wait

by Anonymous

Klaus somehow, somehow, figures out how to manifest himself visibly, as some sort of shade passing as a living man, to talk a high-as-a-kite Luther into going home. He doesn’t touch Luther once, and his ghostly self feels a bit lightheaded, but he walks beside Luther until they’re back to the Academy and Luther has fallen asleep on the staircase. “I’ll tell him I’m dead when he’s sober,” Klaus tells Ben. “I’ll do it.” “Okay,” says Ben. Klaus doesn’t. -- When Klaus dies on the dance floor, God kicks him out of the afterlife. But she only kicks him out halfway.

Prisons, Cages and Mausoleums

by So_Runs_the_World_Away

Klaus folded his arms across his chest. “Nuh-uh. No way. Sorry, brother dearest, but the only way you’re locking her in there is if you lock me in too.”“Oh my God,” Ben said from behind him, his tone a mixture of disbelief and admiration. “You’re an idiot.”Klaus ignored Ben, lifting his jaw obstinately and squaring his shoulders. He fixed Luther with his most intimidating stare. “Your choice, brother mine.”Luther sighed, annoyance evident in his eyes. “Whatever you want, Klaus.”His brother stepped back, out of the room – Vanya’s cell (Klaus’ prison), beginning to close the door.“I’ll check on you later, Klaus.”(“Three more hours, Number Four.”)The door shut soundlessly, and Klaus watched, his heartrate accelerating, as Luther spun the wheel of the lock before turning and walking away.He was trapped.-------------Klaus refuses to let Luther leave Vanya to wake up alone in a cage. Between the panic attacks and the withdrawal, he doesn't quite manage to play the role of the comforting older brother. Somehow it works out anyway.
