Title: Be Not Still
’Verse/characters: pre-canon Pandora's Earth / Noel Eddings
Prompt: 024. Family
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG-13?
Summary: Or, how to tell if your day is likely to be terrible.
Notes: Am I allowed to tag myself?
Noel wakes in a river of blood. She's alive. She isn't sure it's something good, but the relief hits her before the smell.
The bodies aren't whole. A family of seven and one clear outsider. She looks down at the neck of the thing below her, at the wire still inside the demon's neck. Her hands are sore and bleeding where they clutch it. The walls move to crush her, and there's a sound in her head like a thousand bombs falling, but her heart is louder.
When she comes to in Atlanta, she will never be still again but for nightmares.
Title: Life on Earth
’Verse/characters: pre-canon Pandora's Earth / Ivan Landau
Prompt: 065. Passing

Rating: PG
Summary: And this is why Ivan prefers the cinema.
Ivan knew movies, full stop. Conversely, he wasn't really on speaking terms with reality, so when his father was murdered by a wizard, he immediately went to join the wizard cops. And was stuck with arresting hoodoo addicts.
On his second day, his father's killer was caught in California, and it was around then Ivan realized he could have planned his career of vengeance better.
"At least you've got your health," his partner Mary had snapped. After, she had an oddly office-specific rash of bad luck before transferring, and it took Ivan a full week to stop randomly breaking into manic laughter.
