JEM & WILL

Fool

It was now no secret that Jem was sick but Will couldn't help but sometimes wish that the pale boy would one day be healthy again, even in the slightest…no matter how foolish it seemed.

Patience

Dealing with Will on a regular, near consistent basis taught Jem many things, like Gin and orange juice equals a massive headache, horses are not to ridden backwards and asking a lady "who do you do?" instead of "how do you do?" is a really bad idea, however the most important thing he learnt was that Will comes to you not the other way around, so you have to be patient.

Sins and Virtues

Will knew he had the looks of an angel but had the morality that could rival the devil himself, Jem on the other hand was one of the most virtuous beings he knew yet he was tainted by a reliance in demon blood in order to survive… and to Will that was one of the greatest sins that was ever committed.

Scared

The first time Will saw Jem having spasms on the cold, hard floor, blood pouring out of his mouth the then twelve year old had never been so scared.

Dark Brothers

They had talked over what had happened with the Dark sister and how she had tried to revive her sister and as Jem stroked the cat upon his lap stating that such an act was desperate, even for a demon who had lost its sibling, Will replied, "I'd do it for you."

Cold

"Dis iz all your fauw Wiw," was all Jem could say through his blocked nose and sore throat, after all it was Will who suggested they jump into the Thames, in the middle of winter, to escape the demon that was chasing them.

Oops

When they were thirteen they had snuck into Henry's workshop and tinker with his inventions, that is until something exploded causing Henry and Charlotte to some running to see what had happened, their only explanation had been an in chorus "Oops?"

Girl

Jessamine wondered, 'Who knew that the one thing that could drive a wedge between them would be some Downworlder girl with poor fashion sense, dull hair and no sense at all on how to defend herself.'

Fix him

Pale skin was stained bright crimson as he held the other against him, eyes stained a different shade, he looked to Henry, lost, "Can you fix him?"

Nothing

"What will you do when I'm gone?"….."Nothing, because there will be no one to do anything with."
