Pairing: Rex Godwin/Jack Atlus

Prompt: 003 Dusk

Rating: T

Genre: Angst

Pairing: Rex Godwin/Jack Atlus

Summary: Jack thought life in the Satellite was bad, but this might be worse.

Notes: Turned out deeper than expected.


Rex watched the dusk come. He would never tire of this display of pink, lavender, and orange sky. It reminded him that all things had their end.

The sound of Jack's D-Wheel doing laps in the distance; the older man couldn't stop from smiling. Why he punished himself like this, Rex could not guess. The poor boy would tire himself to the bone if he wasn't careful. No matter how much he thought himself a king, he was still only human.

However, he knew this routine well. Jack would use up all his energy and then fall.

Like the sun.
