    Summary

    Kai was no stranger to being afraid. Hell, he had a lot to be fearful of in his life, even without being forced into a goddamn killing game.

    So, why exactly was it so hard for him to adjust to regular life after waking up?

    --

    In which Kai stumbles blindly through recovery, and Damon refuses to let him do it alone.

    Summary

    Death. Wasn't expecting that, were you?

    No one ever does. It won't happen to me, everyone blindly says. Like they have a choice or any say in it when it inevitably happens. Humans are pretty selfish that way, but it wasn’t like Kai was above that. He was the exact same. It won’t happen to me, he blindly thought. It wasn't anything grand, like how it is in shows or movies. There was no lead up to it, like in novels or comic books. It just… Happened.
