Fic: Dust in the Wind

[hybridshade.livejournal.com]

Title: Dust in the Wind
Pairing: gen, Peter/Neal friendship, past Neal/Kate
Rating: pg13-ish
Warnings: slightly AU, creature!Neal, a lot of canon events either don’t happen or happen differently etc etc., canonical character death, unsuccessful attempts at self-harm/suicide (kind of)...
Word count: ~5700
Summary: Neal knows what he is and what he’s done, but as he grows older the memories are fading. Now he’s alone in the world with no exit strategy.
A/N: I won’t spoil what kind of creature Neal is, but this does mess with the usual lore of said creature. Then again, Neal is always a bit of a special snowflake~. Also, this is a slightly belated submission for Caffrey-Burke day.
