The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter One
Tumblr media
cw: stalking, aftermath of past abuse, covid times, police corruption, drug abuse, crime scenes, graphic violence, description of dead bodies
Meara's life has been one disappointment after another, and he's not expecting his new roommate situation to be anything but, either. But he needs to get out of the city and needs a room, and Josselin seems nice enough and has a bed to spare. But Josselin ends up being more than just a freelance translator, eccentric book hoarder, and taxidermy enthusiast, he's also a consulting detective; the one the police come to when they just can't crack a case. Meara accidentally gets swooped up in one such situation. It's the most excitement and fun he's ever had in his entire life. He's hooked.

Over (Tom x F!MC)
Author’s note: basically just adding a bit more of angsty to ILB Chapter 11, one of the best chapters ever written by PB. Kudos PB! Find my masterlist here
Disclaimer: Characters belong to Pixelberry Studios.
Rating: M (angsty af)
Pairing: Tom x MC (Julia Vance)
Word count: 953
“NOOOOOO! DANNI”
Imogen was being held back by two cultists, her scream piercing into the night as they watched in panic and helplessly Danni’s limb body being thrown at the lakes surface, just like it happened to Parker, just moments before. The girl had bravely refused to fall into the cultists threat of hurting her family and stood up for her friends, but Astrid’s frickin’ dirt monster threw her out as if she weighed nothing.
The loud splash of Danni’s body hitting the water reached their ears a fraction of a second later.
“No… Danni, she… she can’t be gone…”
Across the deck, a bloodied Tom was forced to his knees, a knife at his throat. Beside him, two cultists restrained Imogen, while she wept, her body shaking.
“This can’t… it can’t be happening…”
Astrid turned her cold glare into Julia, who was being pinned down onto the floor by Vincent’s weight.
“It’s over, Vance.”
“Stop your struggling, sacrifice yourself willingly, and I promise no more harm will come to your friends.”
“You wouldn’t hurt Imogen!” - Julia yelled, struggling to stand up with Vincent’s foot on her back.
“That is true, but would you be willing to risk this one’s suffering?” - Astrid asked as she strode to Tom, who was kept restrained by two other cultists.
“Tom!” - Julia screamed, panic taking over her as she helplessly watched Astrid yanking the boy’s head back painfully by his hair, exposing the column of his throat to the knife’s blade.
Tom.
They knew it. They had left him to the end.
The one she’s fallen in love with.
The boy gritted his teeth in pain, but didn’t let being intimidated. His eyes locked with Julia’s, shining with determination and with something else.
I love you.
Just moments ago, they were in the yacht’s cabin, chatting as he patched her up, his gentle fingers touching her lightly as he tendered her wounds and scratches from all those fights that happened earlier that night.
She would never forget the embarrassment and confusion on his flushed face as he realised that he’s fallen for her. Just like she had fallen for him.
She still could feel his arms around her, holding her gently and carefully, worried that he would hurt her if he held her tight in his arms.
He would never hurt her. She knew it.
And the softness of his lips on hers, as they kissed again, again and again.
I love you, Tom.
“Don’t do it, Julia! They’re lying! They’ll kill us anyway—”
The cultist holding him sank the knife into his flesh enough for a tendril of blood to deep down his neck, making Tom whimper in pain.
Bright red blood. Blood red. Blood.
Instantly, memories flooded back into the girl’s mind, paralysing her completely.
Memories of the day she found her parents. Dead. Murdered. The Society’s symbol her mom drew before passing away. As a warning.
She should have known.
Even though she never fully trusted them. She should have known. To not get closer. To keep Elliot safe.
The blooded symbol.
Blood red. Blood.
“What’s your decision, Julia?” - Vincent’s voice came from behind her, his foot still on her back, pinning her down onto the yacht’s floor, instantly bringing her back to where they were, as he approached her with calming and cautious steps.
“I… I…” - the girl stammered, seeing the blood soaking Tom’s T-shirt, who stopped fighting for a bit, scowling in pain. Julia noticed that she was already crying. - “I’ll do what you want!” - she yelled in desperation, as the cultist threaten to sink the knife into Tom’s throat again. - “Just don’t hurt him.” - she begged, big fat tears falling from her eyes.
The cultists eased the knife of Tom’s throat, and, despite himself, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.
“See? Isn’t that better? Now, you’ll behave yourself, won’t you?” - Vincent asked, grinning wickedly.
“Yes…” - Julia murmured, her body shaking.
But before she could reach to Tom, she suddenly felt Vincent’s cold hand closing around the back of her neck as he started steering her toward the prow and to her own execution. The girl almost willingly followed him, tears blurring her vision.
It was all over.
She was going to be executed.
Elliot had been kidnapped.
Elliot. Where he was?
She should had protected him. Kept him safe.
She should have known.
I’m so sorry, Elliot. I love you, Scooter. I’m so sorry.
Parker and Danni were thrown at the lake, no sign of any of them.
Imogen was restrained by a bunch of cultists, just like Tom, whose blood fell onto the floor, from the open cut on his neck.
I’m so sorry, guys. I’m so sorry.
It was all over.
“Julia!” - he immediately tried lurching forward to them, but the cultists held him back.
Their eyes locked. She could see the desperation in his eyes.
I love you, Tom.
“Shut up!”
“Please... don’t hurt them…” - Imogen begged in sobs, taking deep shaky breaths, her beautiful face marked by her tears too.
I love you, Tom.
Julia felt Vincent’s nails digging into her neck, but she didn’t care. She had stopped fighting.
It was all over.
The man flipped the dagger over in his hand, its unforgiving edge reflecting the cold moonlight.
“We’re putting an end to this. Once and for all.” - his voice echoed through the night.
It was all over.
I love you, Tom.
Over.

The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter Three
Tumblr media
cw: graphic description of dead bodies (in a mortuary), drug overdose mention, mental illness (ADHD)
A cacophony of meows wakes you from an uneasy sleep. You sit up, groggy, and wipe the sleep sand out of your eyes, the indent your glasses left on your nose. After a few blinks, you realize the fuzz isn’t from sleep, but from dirty glasses, so you try to clean them with your shirt. It’s not the right kind of material, so it just kind of smudges it around. The creak of the door opening echoes through the apartment and you freeze, ready to spring and run. It takes a few seconds and Familiar barreling into your room and under the bed, then sprinting straight back out again, to remind you where you are. Josselin’s apartment. Your apartment. Your home. You breathe. Your belt buckle is digging into your stomach, so you change into a pair of sweatpants before you head into the living room. “Everything okay?” You don’t know why you call out. Why wouldn’t it be? Drake’s really got you on edge, and it burns you. You hate how afraid of him you are. “Everything’s fine!” Josselin calls back. He comes into the living room, a towel wrapped around his waist as he dries his hair. He sticks a finger in his ear and tilts his head to clear out the water inside. “I’m glad you got in okay. I’m so, so sorry. Again.”

The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter Fifteen
Tumblr media
cw: police corruption, ACAB, gun violence, aftermath of physical violence, torture mention, hospitals, IVs/needles
When your eyes open again, it’s to a screaming voice and a flash of light. People are shouting. There’s a hand on your hip. Don’t touch me there, you want to say, but your tongue is heavy and your head is spinning and you can’t think straight. You try to close your eyes but something pries one of them back open again. The light glares into your eye so close and so bright, a migraine abruptly tacks itself onto the wooziness. Shouting. You think maybe there’s someone you recognize in there, but you can’t be sure, and now the hand is shaking at your hip and the light is in your other eye and the first clear words you hear when you finally come back to yourself is, “Please be careful! His head’s not bleeding anymore but I don’t know if he hurt his neck when he fell.” You thought you’d never hear that voice again. You could start crying, if your head didn’t already hurt so much. He made it. Josselin made it to the Inspector and they found you. “Kelley—” You try to warn him, but it comes out as mush on your tongue instead of a name. “Don’t talk, don’t talk,” Josselin says gently. “Save your energy for EMS and the doctors.” “Sir, please step back.” Your stomach lurches when a hard stretcher is forced underneath you. Someone was kind enough to put a sheet over it, but it does nothing for the pain in your shoulders and head. More yelling. Somewhere far away. Somewhere over your head. The stretcher must have been moving because suddenly it jerks to a halt. More shouting. Someone shoves the stretcher into the wall. A tense body suddenly on yours. You try to push it away, but Josselin says, “No, no, I’m not letting them hurt you any more.” His voice catches. More yelling. A gunshot.

The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter Eleven
Tumblr media
cw: drugs, chronic pain, ableism mention
When you get home, Josselin swipes everything off the dining room table—not nearly as full as the coffee table, just some paper plates and a few empty cans he forgot to throw away—and throws a plastic sheet over it. “Where did you—?” But he interrupts you. “It’s important to be prepared.” You don’t ask what that means. You lean against the wall, your weight on your good foot. The cane helps a lot. It’s much less clunky than the crutch, and way easier to get up the stairs with. You’re a little afraid to be alone with it, in case someone says something cruel. You’re only in your mid-twenties, and you’ve heard the shitty things people say about those who need mobility devices when they’re young. Some of your old coworkers said those shitty things themselves. Maybe it’s better you’re not a paramedic anymore. Not just for safety reasons. Josselin pulls on some nitrile gloves, fishes the ziploc out of his book bag, and drops it on the plastic-covered table. There’s a single piece of paper inside. He frowns. “What?” “It’s an address. A street name and number.” He rubs the fingers of his left hand together. “Yeah,” he whispers to himself. “This is what I was looking for.”

Moodboard Monday
Tumblr media
Your throat tightens again, and you’re about to tell them what just happened, although maybe not with the details of your weird reaction, when Josephine’s voice just barely carries over the music, “Danny, come on, we’ve got to go tune!” You look up to see her dragging him toward you through the crowd by his wrist. He’s stumbling behind her, looking back over his shoulder, and he waves and shouts, “Wait for me! Please! I’m going on next; we can talk after?” The rest of you peer over in their direction. It’s the woman who was onstage. The guitarist. The backup singer. She watches him silently, eyebrows hiked, mouth twisted in an amused half smile. A weird tension hangs in the air, but then she nods, and Danny’s shoulders relax, and the seven of you make your way backstage to start getting what you can ready.
guess who you're gonna meet soon!

The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter Seven
Tumblr media
cw: panic attack, stalking, breaking and entering
The power comes on after a few hours. You have to throw out your milk and some of the frozen food, but at least you don’t have to deal with rotting meat. Everything goes quickly back to normal. Or, normal is what you hoped for. Josselin spends the next few day holed up in his room. He barely speaks to you, and when it does, it’s in short, clipped, nervous phrases. You try to tell yourself he’s just working on the case, but he seemed to really value your opinion at the station, and you’d hoped it meant a connection of some kind. Someone who likes you. Someone who respects and values your opinions. Someone who values you. Someone who cares. But now he only comes out for water and the bathroom. You haven’t seen him eat and he barely showers. The cats are in the room with him, and he keeps his doors closed except for when they’re eating. They must have another litter box in there. So you don’t even have little Familiar’s energetic company.

Heads Up 7-Up
tagged by @oh-no-another-idea to share seven(ish) lines!
The guitarist beside her, a tall, lithe woman with long wavy red hair, clears her throat and leans into her mic. “Check. Much less interesting background vocal check.” A small grin tugs at your mouth. There’s only four of them and no brass, so they must be more ska-punk. Danny turns to you, about to speak when the lead vocalist says, “Hey everyone! Thanks for coming out! We are Cacophony of Dissonance! Let’s go!” The drummer taps her sticks above her head. “Onetwofuckyou!” Josselin jumps at the music starting so abruptly. You barely notice Danny’s head swivel back toward the stage, his eyes wide his mouth hanging open. You glance over, following his gaze. He’s staring at the guitarist, who has a voice like an angel who’s swallowed a razor blade.

The Most Beautiful Puzzle: Chapter Sixteen/The End
Tumblr media
cw: overdose mention, murder mention, grief over loss of a loved one, ACAB, police negligence, police corruption, aftermath of violence resulting in permanent injury
You spend most of the next week asleep on Danny’s couch. The gash in your head heals as it should. The staples get taken out. Your hair is an uneven mess. When Danny’s mom finally helps you shave your head, you have to do it with just the two of you, because you don’t want anyone else to see you cry. You’re not vain, exactly, you don’t have to look perfect, but everyone’s going to be able to see the scarring skin and you’re already tired of the looks and whispers it’s going to bring. And then, September comes. And, of course, you continue your lease with Josselin, even though you can’t officially move back in quite yet. Josselin takes photos of your injuries and has you make a note of what happened that day, so you can’t forget in your medication haze. But after that, he never talks about the day you were kidnapped. You’re grateful. You’ll have to think about it more than enough whenever the trial takes place. You don’t see the Inspector. Dona, now, you guess. That’s going to take some getting used to. He’s about ten years older than you and Josselin are, and that’s not that much, but it’s going to be weird seeing him shift from an authority figure to an equal. Although your head heals enough to get the staples taken out, your ankle feels like it doesn’t heal at all. But, eventually, you have to leave Danny’s, even though he insists you can stay as long as you need to. You still have the trial with Drake you have to deal with, and you don’t know if any of his friends are out there looking for you, so you still have to be careful, if only for the sake of the people around you. Finally, a couple of weeks later, you’re able to get up and down the stairs with the assistance of your cane on one side and the banister on the other. You’ve been back home for a few days when Donatien and Pascal come to visit again. The four of you sit crammed together at the small dining room table. You dance around the subject for a while, but every time you get up, their eyes all drop to your ankle, and Pascal is trying very hard to not look at the horrible, still pink and red scar on your head. He’s not judging you. But it’s not what he’s used to, and Josselin has said a couple of times that Pascal struggles with change. After about a half hour of carefully avoiding the subject, Dona drops it on you. “Do you want to meet Miss Miles’s parents?”
read it on Wattpad here
or on Ao3 here!
This is the final chapter! We've reached the end! Thank you so much my lovelies for coming along this journey with me! It was a new but great experience, and I'm hoping to revisit this world again in the future if I can think of more mysteries for them to solve!

tagged by @willtheweaver to share lines with the colors of the rainbow!
red:
It’s crowded when you get off the bus. Not as bad as weekends. Not as bad as it would be downtown. But people swarm everywhere, crowding the sidewalks, driving like maniacs, running red lights and stop signs and nearly smashing you into the asphalt like a rabbit in the wrong place at the wrong time. Your hands tremble. Your whole body trembles. If you were to try to stand still, the vibrations in your body could probably still keep you moving forward.
orange:
One by one, pieces of clothing come off. Piece by piece you bare your bodies to each other, intimate, vulnerable, safe. You finally get to see the entirety of the tattoo on his hip. It’s monochrome black vines, snaking from his hip down his thigh, with small splashes of watercolor work where each flower there blooms. An orange, cut open and segments bared, sits nestled in the middle.
yellow:
“Meara,” Danny says gently. You look up from your fingers. You’re wearing yellow nail polish today. Chipped as usual. “It’s okay. It’s just me.”
green:
Morgan is tall, though not as tall as Josephine or Austin, and he’s thin and waiflike like you are. His hair is the same color and texture, and if he had green eyes and glasses, he could pass for your brother, or even your twin. He grins when he sees you and says brightly, “Hey, look at us! We match!”
blue:
You stand there, dumbstruck, as they start walking in the direction of the blue line. When they reach the corner, Josselin and Frankie turn around and wave, and then they’re gone. For a few long moments, you stare at the empty corner, until Danny gently bumps his shoulder against yours. “You’re gonna e-mail him, right?” he asks.
purple:
“Bad day?” You nod again. Then the only noise is her lunch bag unzipping. Something crinkles. You finally look up when she slides a little purple packet in front of you. “You’re vegan, right?” she says. “I think those are. There’s no gelatin.” You pick up the little bag. It’s gummy bunnies. You sniffle, and your mouth tightens, and you can’t stop the tears once they start falling, because she was thoughtful enough to share something with you when you’re sad, and if you lose this scholarship you might lose this job, and she’s like the big sister you always should have had, and what if you can’t work with her anymore, and and and–
indigo
have a couple extras!
white:
Then he crawls into your lap and your mind goes white and fuzzy. He flings one leg over you, pressing in close. Your hands fall to his hips, which you didn’t notice before, but they’re really, really nice. He sighs into your mouth and goes boneless against you. You wish you could do the same, but even though your brain has turned off, your body is still tense and ready to run.
black and gray:
“Here, you animal,” Danny says, handing you a gray and black checkered handkerchief. “Use this. Uh. Don’t put it in your pocket, though.” “Do you think I’m stupid?” you laugh. “No, I just don’t think you share my kinks,” he grins back, ruffling your hair.
