Resilient
by KyberCrystals94
“That is incorrect, CT-1409,” the Kaminoan refutes, “Our records indicate that you experience night terror episodes between two and three times per week.” “What records?” Echo demands. He’s never confessed his nightmares to anyone, let alone a Kaminoan medical facility. The only ones who know that he wakes up some nights with a scream being torn out of his lungs are... “We receive reports from Clone Force 99,” the Kaminoan replies coolly.

Making a list
by HSNomad
People are more than words. Rebuilding takes time and change. I sat down to write something else entirely and then this happened. I'm not entirely sure if my brain was referencing the wonderful "Sandcastles" story by Ghostfern, but I feel it would be remiss of me not to mention it and tell you to go and read it as well. I can never make links work but if you copy and paste this it will take you there: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48644572/chapters/122706205

But if in the end I lose
by Acideye
Prompt: “I thought that I was getting better.” Emptiness, Setbacks, “Take it easy.”Whumptober 31-“You ok wild? You look pale.” twilight said, walking over to the bed and resting a clawed no, resting a normal hand on his knee, Twilights grip on his knee tightened, wild looking back up at his face to see the flashes of blood once again. He gasped, throwing himself back from twilight, whos curious gaze sadistically looked at him.“Let go twilight-” wild managed out, trying to shake Twilights grip off his wrist. Time had now joined in the fray, his eyes glimmering with a deep red shade only similar to that of Dark links eyes. He rested a hand on twilights back before putting a hand on wilds knee, sharp nails catching in the fabric of his pant leg, tearing through the fabric and gripping at his skin, sharp beads of blue blood shining through.“Time please-” he begged, trying anything he could to get them to let him go, he used his own claws to slash at times hand, along with twilights hand. “Let me go!”-orthe chain is acting weird, not to mention the blood from their eyes.-Title from "canary in a coal mine" by the Crane wives
