Finally making progress on this "new" (actually very old in concept) chapter of Act I. Here's a (very unpolished) scene featuring weirdly suggestive marshmallow roasting + general suggestive (mutual) roasting. I often miss Gabriel's young and relatively unjaded self, so it's been nice to spend some time with that version of him in some of these early scenes.
Tagging my beta readers if interested, even though I feel lowkey bad for bestowing this cursed content upon you (but I'd also feel bad for not showing you a new scene lol): @ananarchie @sunset-a-story @catchingbigfish @joeys-piano
cw: suggestive (as mentioned)
The third night, unseasonably balmy, finds Jeff and I sitting alone by the campfire, Daphne and Kyle having hit the hay uncharacteristically early. Apparently, they thought we wouldn’t notice the both of them slipping into Kyle’s tent – which, to be fair, I didn’t notice until Jeff pointed it out, but I can’t believe they didn’t think he’d notice. He notices everything. It’s one of many things about him that I’m both baffled by and deeply envious of.
I watch him roast a marshmallow with the precision of a surgeon, his features bathed in the soft glow of the flames. He’s fresh from a shower, still wearing the plaid fleece jacket, but with – visibly – nothing underneath above the waist. His hair, warm and glistening in the light of the fire, hangs damp and wavy to his earlobes. He doesn’t seem to notice me staring at him, but I know he does. Like I said, he notices everything.      
I force myself to break the spell. “How are you wearing that?”
His sharp focus doesn’t waver. The marshmallow’s flesh is now of a deep, golden brown, the burn spread more or less uniform across its surface. “Hm?”
I laugh softly. “The jacket. It’s like sixty degrees out.”
“Fifty-six and going down,” he says, in that haughty tone that drives me crazy. “I checked.”
“Sure doesn’t feel like fifty-six. Especially with the fire.”
I watch as the corner of his lip lifts into a smirk, the light and shadows accentuating that perfect little dimple. He finally looks at me, then, in mischievous playfulness, eyebrows raising just a twitch. “Would you like me to take it off?” he asks, feigning politeness.
I inhale sharply through my nose as the familiar, fluttering burn of desire settles deep in my core. My every nerve is burning to touch him, to close the distance between us – barely log-length, yet impossibly great – but this isn’t the time or place. With a forward jut of my chin, I redirect him to the marshmallow. “Are you trying to char that thing?”
He cackles. “Stop backseat roasting.”
“Says the backseat fucker,” I mutter, shaking my head.
“What was that?”
“You heard me.”
Pulling the jagged stick from the fire at last, he slides the marshmallow from the tip and tosses it to me in a fluid motion, leaving me scrambling to catch it – it lands in my palms scalding, nearly black and oozing burning, sticky goo. I wince.
With an amused grin and a quirk of an eyebrow, he says, “Too hot for you?”
I shake my head, trying to recover the marshmallow from my palm as intact as possible, though most of the escaped liquid remains smeared on my skin. “Just right,” I say, popping what remains of the marshmallow into my mouth as I watch him install another onto the roasting branch and set it aflame. It melts white-hot and bittersweet on my tongue.
“Good,” he says, sounding awfully pleased with himself. “Eat that and calm down, yeah?” Teasingly, and with a quick, smoldering glance in my direction, he adds, “Maybe, if you behave, I’ll show you something later. How’s that sound?”
My stomach flutters in heady anticipation. “What is it?”
He smiles into the fire, the flames slow dancing in his eyes. “It’s a surprise.”

Never gonna get over how the anime made this scene just so,, haunting and elevated. Like I love the manga but I love how the anime has taken these scenes and elevated the themes of death and rebirth with simple shots like this and it’s why even after reading all of the manga I still get excited for the anime because I *know* the anime will not only be a faithful adaptation, but also an artistic masterpiece as it uses the medium to its advantage

The show runner has admitted in an interview that she inserted a couple of scenes to include the Inspector earlier in the story
at the behest of her overseers at Warner Brothers, who’d shown the special ‘The Synagogue on Emerald Lane’ to a test audience before it was finalised.

HU7U + 9 sentences fusion
I was tagged in Heads Up Seven Up by @acertainmoshke & Nine Sentences, Nine People by @touloserlautrec lately, and since I finally have something to share and am running quite low on new stuff lately, I'm combining them.
Gently tagging (for either or both of the games): @randomstupidchaos, @cwritesfiction, @calicohyde, @winglesswriter, @winterandwords, @squarebracket-trickster, @tryingtowritestuff24, @orphanheirs, @catchingbigfish
Here are ~20ish lines from a new partial scene I'm planning to include in chapter 3 of libaw:
And he asks, “What happened next?”
I laugh softly – a sad, stifled thing. A party balloon impaled on a needle, whistling to its death. “I’ve thought about that so much over the years. You have no idea.”
“How do you mean?”
I shrug, trying to act nonchalant. Inside, of course, I’m lying on the ground bleeding out beside the burning wreckage of my car, and the faceless guy who hit me is driving away, tires squealing, and I’m screaming and screaming for help while passersby go about their business like I’m a ghost, like I don’t exist. Like I never did. “How different things could be if ‘what happened next’ had never happened,” I say – and there’s that uncomfortable pinch in my chest again, because it feels like betrayal to wish, even for a moment, that things had been different. “Here’s what I’d like to tell you: after the third day, I left the hospital. Jeff never moved into that house in Pittston, and Daphne never became his roommate. We went about our lives.” A sharp inhale, as though added momentum will help me force out words I’ve never meant, not even in our darkest hours, and never fully could. “I never saw him again.”
Dr. Avery smiles in a way that feels uncomfortably knowing – like the fortress I’ve spent years carefully erecting is nothing but flimsy paper for him to tear through like a kid on Christmas. I’ve felt this way before, and it’s far too close for comfort. I shut my eyes to stop the room from lurching.
And he says: “But that’s not what happened, is it?”
And maybe it’s because my defenses are down and I can barely hear above the shriek of the alarms, but the only response I can muster oozes with the worst kind of truth: “I wouldn’t be sitting here if it was.”
