Thanks for the reviews, follows, and favorites! I decided to make this into a two-shot. The idea for this scene was klc1-25's. Credit for the idea goes to her. Also, sorry if I didn't get the characterization of Isaac right. He's really hard to write. Thanks!
*3 months and 5 days after the death of Augustus Waters. Isaac's POV.
I stand alone at my best friend's grave. Hazel is waiting by the car. She prefers to remember Gus the way he was, and I don't blame her. I just feel like I have to do this. I kneel down and place two things on the grave. The first is a picture from a few months after our surgeries. Gus is wearing shorts, showing off his metal leg, and I'm not wearing my glasses, with my glass eye looking into the back of my head. I always liked that picture. It's like it's saying, "Yeah, world, we aren't perfect. Deal with it." The second thing is Gus's controller from when we played Counterinsurgence. I never understood his sacrifices. I don't get this one either. I stand back up, and before I go, I look once more at the name on the gravestone and whisper,
"Not yet."
