Well done. The mirror image, especially.

Now considering what i should go read to remind myself that he got better.

"Opportunity Cost", in which he (a) dances and (b) is one of the Good Guys.

The leaping-off-the-bridge extra?

Maybe the one from his POV, but I thought of the more recent one which is all from Daphne's POV and that didn't work at all.

That works, doesn't it. The "Crimson wings" even appear. Not gone or forgotten, but mostly under control.

It's a display of strength: the Bug tells him to do Bad Things, and he casually tells it to shut the hell up. And it does. It's like watching a world-class gymnast do back walkovers to stretch out her stomach muscles. Looks totally easy, right? Now you do it.

If I want a Chaz got better reminder, I reread the end of "Getaway". He's not "better" yet, there, but he's in progress. The phone call to Sol, breakfast with Marti and then the shotglass bit at the end just make me grin.

Or even earlier, when he's still in really bad shape, but real healing is happening, in the extra bit where he has a massage therapy session.

Or read those bits in chronological order and then "Opportunities".

The massage extra and Getaway are probably the ones I'd pick.  I've actually got a bit of art from circa Getaway that I will put up once I've cleaned it some.

Blast, Bug and Chaz, now I have to go re-read that whole post Refining Fire sequence as a temptation, not an exploration.
