    Summary

    What was supposed to be a simple mission turns into a complete disaster when Zanka, Enjin, and Gris are sent to deal with an overwhelming number of Trash Beasts. Exhausted after hours of fighting, the trio stops at a restaurant.

    While Enjin and Gris stay behind, Zanka goes for a walk through the city to clear his head. There, he unexpectedly runs into his enemy, Jabber Wonger, who is busy threatening a mysterious hooded man. As expected, the encounter quickly escalates into a fight.

    However, just as Jabber is about to kill him, something impossible happens.

    Jabber suddenly vanishes.

    In his place stands a small, severely injured child.

    After noticing Mankira's rings on the boy's fingers, Zanka realizes the truth somehow, the child is Jabber. He quickly connects the incident to the hooded man Jabber had been interrogating earlier and concludes that a strange Jinki must have transformed him into a younger version of himself.

    Unsure what to do with the feral, traumatized child who used to be one of the most dangerous Raiders in the Pit, Zanka brings him back to Enjin and Gris.

    Summary

    “Goka!” Zanka hisses, eyes wide as he tugs on his brother’s sleeve and subtly points at the group, “Goka, who are those people?” The awe in his voice is clear.
    They pass each other, Zanka leaning his head behind Goka to continue staring.  

    Quickly, Goka grabs Zanka’s arm that holds his sleeve and pulls him forward.  

    “Ouch!” He cries. The sudden movement had hurt his shoulder. “Goka-” 

    “Those people,” Goka interrupts, voice suddenly clipped, “are Cleaners. The Hell Guard works with them sometimes. But you should avoid ‘em as much as possible.”  

    “Okay.” Zanka accepts easily. If Goka says someone is no good, he’s usually right.

    “They’re sick in the head.” Goka grits out.  

    Or, Zanka grows up wondering.

    Or, or, my completely self indugent fic where I make Zanka into a trans girl because I think she has something going on. Something something, repression, something something, Givers as a metaphor for queer awakening.

    Summary

    Still a trainee, Zanka is struggling to adapt. The rigid discipline that once carried him to the top of Hell Guard Academy leaves him floundering among the casual chaos of the Cleaners, uncertain of where he fits.

    Thankfully, Enjin has been keeping him close, a grounding force amid all the uncertainty.

    Then on one fateful market venture, he finds his eyes transfixed, staring into tasselled blue.

    A longing ache stirs within him.

    Enjin gets a bright idea.
