    Summary

    When Wax had accompanied Jon Deadfinger to find a local man’s killer, he hadn’t expected it would affect his life in any real way. He definitely hadn’t expected that merely two days later, it would lead him to sitting at the small table in his one room apartment, regarding the strangest roommate he could have ever imagined having.
     
    Or, Wax decides there's something about a certain teenage delinquent that just might be worth saving.

    Summary

    “You made a mistake,” Waxillium said, his voice soft. Wayne let out a breath, thin and shaky. “One you can’t take back. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get a second chance.”

    “It does mean that,” Wayne said. “You know I shoulda hanged.”

    “No,” Waxillium said, in a voice that left no room for argument. “You shouldn’t have.”

    Summary

    A distinct pop rings behind him. “What’s taking you so— oh my! What happened to the lights? I know I put some in here!”

    Kinger turns just in time to see Caine’s eyes frantically searching to confirm his own competence, that he really didn’t just forget something so important as being able to see in the tent. A diligent AI, as always. Not perfect, but god knows Kinger isn’t either, so why would he expect that from his creation?

    Well, not just his— they had a whole team, after all, and Queenie would not take kindly to not getting credit for her wonderful additions.

    Their creation. All of their life’s work.

    Kinger’s eyes crinkle fondly, no mouth to betray how he is smiling on the inside. “Hello, Caine.” He says. “I think this is some of your best work yet.”

    (Or as the rest of the gang engages in a fast food masquerade, Kinger finds just enough sanity to talk to Caine properly. If only everything he said didn’t terrify Caine, or this might’ve all gone differently.)
