fever breaks the fall (Ghostbusters)
Feb. 26th, 2025 02:35 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Theme Prompt: Amnesty #25 - originally prompt #015 - Fever Dream
Title: fever breaks the fall
Fandom: The Real Ghostbusters (+movie canon AU)
Rating/Warnings: PG-13 due to the depiction of an intense nightmare (brief as it is), also contains spoilers for the RGB episode "The Bogeyman is Back" and its sister episode "The Boogieman Cometh" as well as a description of heat stroke.
Word Count: 996
Summary: Both an unusually hot New York City summer climate and a 3-day insomnia episode ends in Egon suffering after fainting during a bust. In the throes of this, Egon sees things he had truly hoped not to tell anyone, and due to the nature of fevers, he unintentionally spills the beans.
Author's Note: Assuming the same continuity as Uncertain Variables, though in terms of where this is placed, it in the AU this belongs to, it happens between the RGB episodes of "Janine's Day Off" and "Dairy Farm". Partially inspired by the soundtrack of My Happy Marriage - particularly tracks "Pain" and "Miyo's Dreams".
This is also written for Fan Flashworks' 78th Amnesty for the respective challenges of "Nightmare", "Ghosts and Gore" and "Did you hear that?".
